Very interesting, you remind me of Blake and how he characterizes the psyche of the uninhibited, paradaisal man, I forget the exact phrase but it's something like... the gliding of two surfaces over one another, man as the in-between who traverses the Outside as he lets the Outside traverse him. I just don't really remember the phraseology (it was a dense paper) but you're on the money, surprise surprise

Without the schizo-affect, archons are, for me, another word for Shestov's Necessity: death, disease, suffering, time, predation, spiritlessness. The ultimate, hypostasized resistance to natural processes, like a blockage in the current.

Obviously for Shestov these are natural processes, while I just characterized them as the defiance of natural processes. At the same time, they're Being on autopilot: a guy who just wants to eat, suck and fuck is in their thrall without a doubt.

There's a real tension here. Between the Necessity you affirm and the Necessity you don't and never should (which are the archontic domains). Figure it out for yourself, 'cause I sure haven't.

Can we talk about this? Not posting on /tv/ 'cause it's hot trash.

With the Netflix re-release and how faithfully it depicts the self-professed g/acc telos, I think it'd be cool to look at some of the deeper themes of the show and why it's more relevant today than it's ever been. If this thread is still up soon I will post my analysis.

book for this feel?

Just watched End of Evangelion, really fucked my shit up, I'm trying to think about what literature I could read to help me out of this slump its put me in, I was thinking of Kant, Schopenhauer, and Hegel, but where should I start?

What is a book you can recommend that is similar to this?
