Clearly thou needs to inspect the ontology of rhiziomatic transcendentality, pleb

Only 10 seconds? Time doesn't even exist bro.

I pretend to like peterson and harris too much in order to spark controversy

I just just wanna jack my fucking dick off aaahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

>>12444340
I once dreamt about creating a post on
/lit/ that garnered 100s of replies, created new memes and was eventually turned into a legendary cap

>>12444340
God doesn't exist

>>12444347
Bro I saw this one Joe Rohan podcast and he was smoking weed with Joey Diaz. Joey said that time is just something in our heads and Joe agreed and it made me think of Immanuel Kant when he said that time doesn’t exist bro. Joe’s podcast is for philosophers who like to toke up (if you know what I mean, haha)

>>12444362
That depends one what you mean by "god" and "exist".

Thus we see how hither to and henceforth onward the post modern neo Marxist degenerate bug men soi boy are in essence clearly antithical to jesus

Ulysses? I loved it.

Do you happen to be able to ifn't?
Yes, I noughtn't.

>>12444340
Dostoevsky is a great Russian writer.

>>12444340
I don't read translations, the more if it's poetry.

The great American novel? Lolita

Yeah I'm a Deleuzian

Ben Shapiro should be president

The "I"'s "I" is a supportive element to the "I" of finding pleasure in the "I" of the fentogonamical-bureocratic act of the "I" of going through the phase and conseguential-case of the apple.

>>12444340
The bible?


never read it, btw I love paradise lost and dantes inferno

>>12444340
Aristotle is vastly superior to Plato. The former actually utilized the scientific method and logic to create his philosophy, while the latter merely rambled on about mystical woo-woo that deserves no place in modern disciplines of knowledge.

ah yes, a thing and the thing in itself, the phenomena and the noumena, the is-ought dilemma and so on.

Captcha takes sev

>>12444340
I only read non fiction.

Holy shit that’s a good one.

Good job.

In all seriousness, Plato and Aristotle are most reads.

But that’s def a good one

I love russian authors

Dostoyevsky, Tolstoy, Checkov, the list goes on!

>>12444370
This. A slog for sure, requiring much patience and dedication, but certainly worthwhile in the end.

>>12444345
>not understanding the difference between a rhizome and a stolon

>>12444422
Oof got me

>>12444340
I'm reading Finnegans Wake

Finnegan's Wake is the most insightful book ever written. I've read it dozens of times and it is ANYTHING but complete nonsense!

I am going to talk to you about the Lacan. Lucky for you, in this review I will demonstrate such an unquestionable comprehension of everything fundamentally psychoanalytical that not only will you finally be persuaded to read his books but also all debilitating misperceptions and insuperable aporias and smug dismissals and congenital ineptness will be rectified by the irresistible prowess of my lucidly sagacious yet easily digested and wholesomely uplifting discourse and you will then have been baptized in the fountain of knowledge to emerge forever purified of error.

Any suggestions for books I should add to this chart?

>>12444366
I've seen people give Jp shit for this but I think that'a genuinly the most earnest philosophical approach to that question

>>12444340
cultural Marxism

>>12444635
This but unironically

>>12444340

The Hindu caste system is a terrible injustice and should be abandoned for egalitarian principles

>>12444729
Psychoanalysis is an ideologie that mostly serves public manipulation. Im being serious. This is well documented.
Also most schools of psychotherapy but escpecially psychoanalysis is there to fix people just so far as to be able to work in the system again. Real psychotherapy would be a process of troue enlightening, i.e. of shedding all dependabilities

it takes less than 10 seconds to post here

>>12444780
>shedding all dependabilities
I find it hard to believe this is psychologically possible for the human brain considering we've always been a tribal species.

>>12444747
I meant it unironically. Listen to this smug dickwad

>>12444340
Pseud is a highly subjective word, I apologize but I must be given a clearer definition first.

>>12444340
Whenst my highness versifies poetizations I burrow for synonyms, yet picking but the terminal suggestion

>>12444340
Finnegans wake is pretentious as fuck

>>12444340
>10 seconds
but you see time is, as einstein once hypothesized, relative and so could one really said with certainty that 10 seconds have pass? how can we be sure 10 seconds for you are the same as 10 seconds for me? one could, and pardon for playing devils advocate here; argue that from the perspective of the universe only one second has passed. ergo, I'm afraid this theoretical game cannot take place at all. concordantly vis-à-vis erwin shrodinger once postulated, everything is and isnt until its beholded and so one cannot say time has occurred at all, after all the assumption that one can observe time is preposterous.
sincerely. a thinker

Ulysses is great because of the references

Jordan Peterson is a great mind of western philosophy, his books are definitely still going to be read 10 years from now

Real socialism has never been tried.

>>12444340
haha start with the greeks nietzsche cummies

>>12445733
Because they will have solved all problems within 10 years

Oh what's this I'm carrying around in my messenger bag over my shoulder? Just a book, no biggie, but yeah I'm a bit of bookworm.

>>12444340
I read for pleasure and curiosity.

>>12444340
What's 10 seconds? Just an idea created by society to control us. What's matter is now. Your focus should be in the present and not in the time.
Carpe diem my friends
Carpe diem.

I made this video for my entry

>>12444548
i actually do though :(

>>12446483
Don't worry friend. Just add authors like Turgenev or Gogol and then you won't seem like a pseud.

>>12444340
"I read"

>>12444355
I unironically like Peterson and even preordered his book

My day began in a Proustian manner but quicky denegrated into Kafkaesque horror

Nym isn't a hymn but can be pronounced to rhyme not with ism and that's a schism

>>12446666
Quads of truth. It is a shame that the word Kafkaesque has been so overused.

>>12446709
Why? His shit blows either way.

>>12444340
Shitting is birth through your anus

>>12444340
I love Bukowski.

>>12444364
I can smell rotting cheeseburgers and cum encrusted cheeto dust just off this post

Infinite Jest isn't that good but I think Howard Bloom didn't give it enough credit. It was literally the first of it's genre so of course it was going to be a little rough.

>>12446666

I don't know why people complain about the lack of a third-person singular pronoun when we could all just go back to using "thou"

>>12444340
The Marvel Hero movies are so good, especially Guardians, because they were able to take what we learned from post-modernists like Vonnegut and translate it into an intellectually stimulating but far easierly digestible format.

>>12444340

Roland Barthes is THEE philosopher of the 20th you know.

You didn't even LAUGH when you read Kafka? Oh my GOD, I remember laughing SO HARD when reading Kafka, he's truly funny - don't you know Kafka was heard LAUGHING when he wrote his works?

>>12444340
You like listening to audio books? What next, borrowing from libraries?

God might or not exist, nothing is certain only passing on muh genes, say, want to go breed my mate?

It's natural to think that living things must be the handiwork of a designer. But it was also natural to think that the sun went around the earth.

My favorite philosopher and economist is Karl Marx.

Dumas is bad

I read and discuss books on the internet

I hate everything.
Uh, I also read Nietzsche and Foucault

I've read 5 books and 4 of them were Infinite Jest

What are [words]?????

>>12449287
I remember, back when this was posted more often, three or four years ago, I would slide that phrase into conversations I was having with other undergraduates as a sort of psudo poignant remark to wrap up a point I made. Of course for me it was said to disparage what I had said, that it wasn't anything to take seriously, but then instead it was recieved with a sort of reverence, as if I had disclosed some truth which otherwise would have gone unseen. Sorry for the blogpost I am drunk and nostalgic.

>>12451191
Ding ding ding, you are the most pseud of them all.

>>12451214
To make matters worse this was happening at a private collage not dissimilar to the one described in White noise. You really aren't wrong.

Hegel is the most important philosopher ever. If you don't understand him, I'm sorry, your brain is probably just to small. Same with Derrida.

>>12451191
Yep, you win anon.

Why yes, I do browse boards.4chan.org/lit/, how could you tell?

>>12451282
Thank you anons. Those were bad days. Glad they're over.
