I know, its okay, I'm older, and shit wasn't so hard on travel-sized men back in the 90s and early 00s. I'm okay living on my teenage romance memories, considering how many better looking /lit/-anons have wasted their opportunities...

> In 1912, novelist Jules Romains, who had obtained copies of God's Mystery and The Human Origins, set up, with the help of fellow hoaxers, a rigged election for a "Prince of Thinkers". Unsurprisingly, Brisset got elected. The Election Committee then called Brisset to Paris in 1913, where he was received and acclaimed with great pomp. He partook in several ceremonies and a banquet and uttered emotional words of thanks for this unexpected late recognition of his work. Newspapers exposed the hoax the next day.

That's mean.

> "I try to revive the tradition of metaontology and metametaphysics that departs from Kant. As has been noticed, Heidegger introduced the term metaontology and he also clearly states that Kant’s philosophy is a “metaphysics about metaphysics.” I call metametaphysical nihilism the view that there is no such thing as the world such that questions regarding its ultimate nature, essence, structure, composition, categorical outlines etc. are devoid of the intended conceptual content. The idea that there is a big thing comprising absolutely everything is an illusion, albeit neither a natural one nor an inevitable feature of reason as such. Of course, there is an influential Neo-Carnapian strand in the contemporary debate which comes to similar conclusions. I agree with a lot of what is going on in this area of research and I try to combine it with the metaontological/metametaphysical tradition of Kantian and Post-Kantian philosophy."

Yeah... No.

>I thought she went by the rule of only keep things that spark joy, so I guess if every book you owned sparked joy (I have no idea how that would feel) then you could keep them.

Having a large library is pretty much the only thing that sparks joy in my life.

>Seems very much like a power dynamic, big protective white guy and scared feeble asian girl.

> tfw you are 165cm, 120 pounds and have dated pretty much exclusively asians and south americans because white girls don't give you a second look if you don't tower over them.
