The trouble is that it has worked its way slowly around the world, normies and nazis, Russians and retards. It is a plague that’s worked slower than covid unfortunately. It isn’t fresh or funny or edgy anymore. It’s just tired, and the new generation that uses it thinks this is the meme logo and we can just stop there. Boring boring boring.

also, I went to that little park on the bay that's just behind this photo, the place with the bench on the end of that long, grassy spit overlooking the water, the rainbow houses to your left, and tried to read yeats while these two fat bald guys argued about money. one of them struck up a conversation with me. we got to talking and he tried to sell me acid. like an idiot, I refused. fond memories

Is it the one near the fire station? I used to go there with my dad to play on the swings. There were two of those horsey-things that we'd sit on, one with a fish head and one with a hippo, he'd always have the hippo one and the fish was mine. Maybe you meant the other park though, beside the leisure center in Salthill. That's where we'd go to play House of the Dead in the arcade, many years later I realised he never put the coin on on my side and I would pull the trigger thinking I was killing things but wasn't.

Always preferred this classic, harmonious one to the new badly drawn fren one. I appreciate the positive vibes of fren, it's a breath of fresh air on that obnoxious site where for reasons tons of bitter retards insult everybody for anything, the exact same thing they'll point out on Twitter for exemple.
>Oh we basically are the same but your view slightly differs from mine? I'll write a whole 35 lines block to insult, despise you and wish your death because I'm basically a frustrated dropout who did this for a decade now and my education was mostly fit by the toxic culture of this website.

Just so we're on the same page, The Portable Veblen is a romantic comedy about two people who have become engaged to one another but haven't yet introduced their significant other to their neurotic families. Written by a woman with a female protagonist, hope that isn't a deal breaker.

Being and Time by Heidegger

in conjunction with the following supplementary material:
Being-in-the-World: A Commentary on Heidegger’s Being and Time, Division I (Hubert L. Dreyfus)
A Commentary on Heidegger’s Being and Time (Michael Gelven)
Heidegger’s Being and Time: A Reader’s Guide (William Blattner)
A Guide to Heidegger’s Being and Time (Magda King)
Heidegger (John Richardson)
Heidegger Explained: From Phenomenon to Thing (Graham Harman)

Everyone seems to pay most attention to this book when it comes to Heidegger, but I find the later essays that I've read much more immediately appealing and easy to read, even if they are very mysterious and cryptic. But I thought I would come to appreciate them more if I tackled the big daddy. Progress is very, very slow and laborious, but rewarding.

Reading it purely just to fill in my knowledge and to be able to say that I've actually read Dickens. It's quite disappointing for being written by the most popular of the Victorians.

>and challenging imaginary leftists
Oh yeah they're imaginary, now. I thought you were just delusional but you're unironically a fuckin' schizo lmao. ADL is imaginary too (yes he worked with them and created a hashtag just for that). The thousand of articles pointing the artist refusing to be associated with 4chan's racism was imaginary too.
>Did you even post what you are reading itt?
Yes. What you gonna do if I didn't, cock sucker?
What are you even doing on this board if you despise meme war, retard? You must go back.

Look out guys, we have a meme warrior here

>>22071456
You're the on'y one laughing there. You're overhyped about that born-dead-meme, showing how empty your life is.

Meme war is the essence of 4chan and what made it great. You can despise it all you want, faggot, I don't care about the opinion of a pretentious asshole like you. You probably accomplished nothing yet are cocky enough to write that? Lmao, I know people like you, you remind me of someone I know. They do 1 and act like if they did 10. And people just see through their bullshit, they're the only one delusional, unaware of how much they're overrating themselves and as a result, they always think "damn, why people can't recognize my value?" while they never ever added any value to anything in their whole pathetic life. You ungrateful pig just believe that reading 4 books this year makes you a superior intellectual entity or something, but really, it doesn't. You're probably a loser IRL and even if intellectually above the standard brainlet, you're just some introvert guy who happen to read on his free time.
And you have the nerve to despise meme war? In 2023? In the social media century? My god what a retard, you understood nothing to the world, western society nor this site, even though you post on it. You just sound like you never understood nor know the impact of 4chan on popular culture. It's so fun and ironic how despite your pretentious smart-ass tone you failed to understand something that obvious, simple and crucial. Meme wars that happened to this site will for ever be more glorious than anything that either happened or will happen if your pathetic life, and that statement is pure objectivity.

To be honest, the nationality barely matters. What's the point of pointing the americanity of 4chan if you're an obese retarded amerimutt and the whole board legitimately bullies you.

updating to say that I finished Left Hand of Darkness, I really enjoyed it. The political plot was fun to keep track of, and the worldbuilding felt really fleshed out. The last segment of the story was really riveting and the ending was excellent.
Now I'm continuing my read of Science And Sanity, by Korzybski, since I'd taken a multi-month break from it and feel more inclined to continue now. Might read We by Zamyatin as well, since I'm in a scifi mood.
I'm not sure why the RTP is dominating /lit/ but I have no complaints. It's a good place to be, and rivalries aside it's nice to have multiple good universities so close to each other.
