Hilarious.

It influences art and science all the time, what do you mean? not to mention politics, but even if it didn't so what?

Not OP.

Though I definitely barely leave my house, I feel that there must be a better way to learn to be charismatic than just nonchalantly talking to people. I mean, there are plenty of extroverts out there but most of them outright bore me when I talk to them, and only these few shining stars that crack a joke or two that hits brighten up my day.

>“There were five major moons, with the Ly-cilph planet the fourth out from the cloud tops, and the only one with an atmosphere. The remaining twenty-four satellites were all barren rocks: captured asteroids, junk left over from the solar system's formation, all of them less than seven hundred kilometres in diameter. They ranged from a baked rock ball skimming one thousand kilometres above the clouds, from which the metal ores had boiled away like a comet's volatiles, up to a glaciated planetoid in a retrograde orbit five and a half million kilometres out.

How enthralling

>time myself reading
>10 minutes pass

>if I read for 60 minutes that would mean 18 pages
>see on reddut anons claiming to read 200 pages in an hour

How? Do these people actually digest and experience the writing or do they just whizz through it mindlessly?

Read fiction, theres actual craftsmanship, artists creating work. Philosophy is just people's opinions and stuff, why should I listen to them when I am invariably more right than them, more based and redpilled and blackpilled and can make my own opinion on stuff?
