It has a lot of "holy shit" moments contained therein.

[Thread pic is relating to my current face with this problem]

I'm back, time asking /lit/ for help on a matter with writing improvemen what with wording and all.

As of right now, I've been told I got a wording issue, yet I'm unsure if it's related to the fact of prose. And I'm trying to solve this problem with reading and checking out Stephen King (my idol)'s early and early but great as shit stuff with prose and the way he writes out things.

I feel like It's not going well and I might not be gaining anything improving or such? Any opinions, advice, thoughts, etc from your mind about this?

>heh yeah this is a kids book, i'll read it and think nothing of it whatever
>mfw the invasion of klendathu part with the exploding dogs

Fuck Wittgenstein, his book is a uncomprehensable mess. He just make up terms without explaining them, and says"this is that, and that is this", im like, NO its NOT. The goal of language is not to be objective, it is to comunicate all sorts of ideas and concepts. If you want to make a foolproof statment, use logic, something Wittgenstein does not.

Being acute won't help you.
A chunk of space and time is all there is to us. You can't subtract yourself from it.
You can't be defined by anything else but a set of relations. Set of relations which can be defined by a set of numbers, which we conveniently designate as space-time.

First of all, nice trips.
Second of all. Cut all this fucking semantic crap. The feeling of freewill that so ferociously blinds most of us is so ironically inscribed into the set of things that is we can't control that it is at the very least laughable, and at most depressing.
If you don't have the freedom of action, you don't have the freedom to will.

then why did this stupid caveman climb down his fucking mountain to teach people about the uberman, and weep like a fag when plebs wouldn't chose to become one?

Does 2b2t.org prove the Dark Forest theory?

go into trucking! It's free!
>owe 7000$ if you don't last one year after they teach you
Be your own boss!
>you don't get to choose shit when you start out with big name companies
See America!
>from the seat of a big rig and industrial parks and truck stops
Guaranteed home time!
>The second you get into your home state the clock is fucking ticking and you're out the next fucking night.

That wasn't for me at all. I like being home too much for that, felt unsafe and sleeping in a truck was like staying at someone else's home for too long. learning was fun, the job was not.

>2. Start cooming in the shower without any lubrication, literally just use water. Don't edge either, coom as fast as possible. This will make your body associate cooming with little to no pleasure, but you can still relieve that ache down there. Hot water will also numb the tactile corpuscles on your penis that make it feel good to touch.
