We're having a /lit/ meetup in Boston. Changing up location since Trident burnt to the ground. That's confirmed, by the way. We'll be at Boston Sail Loft on the waterfront. It's more comfy than Trident desu senpai.

Email bostonliterature at gmail if you're interested & I'll give you the time.

>Why?

If you've been to university organizations, reading groups, or hung out in a cafe up here, you've noticed the stifling eggshell-walking culture. And also that no one reads /lit/ books.

>What?

Something in the vein of Ben Franklin's Junto. Discussion, critique, &c.

Calling it now, screencap this. OP is a hack who is competing with Ernest Cline, Foer, Martin, and Franzen on the next great american novel. He/she/it is trying to round up and kidnap would-be writers to work in their typewriter sweatshop where within the next two months they will have to pump out a complex, 4D plot exploring life's eccentricities in a 220k word manuscript. This is all an attempt funded and helped by the local Masonic lodge in their attempt to bring America's literary capital back to Massachusetts.

I'm 28. If you think that somehow being 32 makes you a bit less behind the ball than younger folks, perhaps it isn't for you. But you are on /lit/, so you should probably just show up, it won't kill you. You know how bad things are up here...

Strange looks and awkwardness due to race don't necessarily imply racism. DESU social exclusion doesn't necessarily imply racism either, though it's a nearer case there than with the others.

Awkwardness is kind of expected when you're the only member of a group. I'm the only homo in my friend group, and whenever it comes up it's awkward as shit, that's not because of homophobia, it's a touchy subject that makes people tread lightly.

>> No.10989989

>>10989975
Exactly! Especially given the tension associated with race today, you can't really expect anyone to not walk on eggshells when it comes up. And treading carefully isn't always or even often because of some belief of the inferiority of one race vizaviz another.
