/lit/ - Literature

because we hate "great art" these days

>>10937616
Anyone who is angry enough to stab an artist is ok in my book

>>10937628
Agreed. I thinking stabbing an artist, especially a modern artist, is a radical act of Homeric heroism. Almost an act of ritual magic evoking primordial currents of vitality, feeding the old soil with fresh blood so something great may yet grow.

>>10937642
Agreed, we can only hope for more to come

>>10937616
looks like jezza

>>10937616
I want so badly for her to tell me that I'm a detestable masculine scum and should be killed off from this earth along with all men, before she spits in my face and rests her feet firmly on my head as I eagerly prostrate to this feministic goddess.

>>10937616
the SCUM manifesto is literally the female version of r9k, i laughed so fucking hard when i first came across it

>>10938462
We're a lot of proud /r9k/ robots here, buddy. Praise Kek

Is it satire or no?

>>10939775
It was legitimate schizophrenic rage

>>10939809
So was Finnegans Wake and that's hailed as a masterpiece.

>>10939840
Joyce wasn't schizo, Jung was just a hack
>Hurr he's so smart he controls it
Fucking idiot

>that part where the protagonist hears himself being talked about on the radio
>that part where some women talking to each other turn into a tree and a rock

There are different degrees of psychosis and his daughter was diagnosed with schizophrenia.

>>10938454
why isn't there porn of this

>>10939856
Did he hear voices himself? If not shut the fuck up with that stupid cherrypicking
Schizophrenia isn't even a real mental illness

>>10939872

>>10937642
The only Homeric thing about it is God intervening to stop this dumb dyke from killing Warhol

>>10939872
>Schizophrenia isn't even a real mental illness
Of course it is, you fucking retard.

>>10939906
It literally isn't. Its just an umbrella term used to lump together a wide variety of symptomatic patterns that psychology in its limitless ignorance has no explanation for. There is no causative chain at the heart of any schizophrenia diagnosis, it's a naive descriptive catchall.

>>10937616

Neither /lit/ nor anyone else loves or has ever loved Miss Solanas.

(This perhaps explains why she turned out as she did.)

why do feminists all look like beta males

>>10937642
>stabbing some timid fag artist is an epic act

>>10939919

Perhaps the same could be said of all DSM diagnoses. But enough talk, have at you!

>>10939919
It literally is. Read the fucking DSM.

>just an "umbrella term" for symptoms
Yes, that's what illnesses, disorders and diseases generally are.

>There is no causative chain at the heart of any schizophrenia diagnosis
No "causative chain" necessary for anything to be classified as a disorder. You can put the unifying label of "illness" or "disorder" on a set of correlating symptoms irrespective of whether or not you actually understand/identify a unifying causal mechanism.

If you want to denounce the entirety of the DSM (or psychiatry) as illegitimate, then I'm actually quite fine with that. But singling out schizophrenia as "not real" despite it being identical in kind to many other acknowledged mental conditions is indeed indefensible bullshit.

>>10940043
>No "causative chain" necessary for anything to be classified as a disorder.

Which from a medical standpoint is absolutely proposterous. Imagine going to a doctor and having them tell you that "You have a cough"

I single out schizophrenia because in its mythic like haughtiness its the one illness taken as most credible but has the least attempt to explain it

>>10937856
she looks nothing like Alex Jesalenko, get the fuck out of here.

What are you doing on a board devoted to literature?

>>10941967
If you don't have at least five artists you want shot you're a pseud and have no real interest in literature

>>10937616
We do? I've literally never seen her mentioned here before.
