Atlas Shrugged.
When I was younger the idea of someone "achieving/winning/standing above" and all that shit in an egocentric kind of way appealed to a disillusioned post-commie (high schooler) middle class guy who had no business either being a commie or a total libertarian given that I fully enjoyed the benefits of the commie and capitalists aspects of the system I live in...
Either way, I read like 50 pages and was already hating it because it was shit. I read to 200 or so and then decided I could simply read better (or worse but fun) things anyway. It also made me feel revolted at even idealizing the ultra libertarian views for a while.
I kept it for a long long time because it worked as a nice weight though.

I also own chinese comics which are embarrassing in a completely different way but at least they are thin enough I can hide them behind the "real" literature.

I struggle to describe the aesthetic of this cover, but it is an aesthetic that seems common place with fantasy/scifi released either from low tier publishers or self published. What they all have in common is, despite large block fonts and busy low quality art, a feeling of blank space. The font and the picture don't connect, they don't integrate and give the impression of a book cover. It is just font over a picture, it looks like a meme.

I have a tattered paperback edition of Roald Dahl's 'The Twits' that I am just loathe to part with.
I first acquired it as a child, and it quickly became my favourite book.
In the ensuing years, time took it's toll, and now the pages are torn, the binding loose, almost about to give way.
Presently, the book is placed amongst the multitude of leather-bound books that I display around my apartment (many of which I have never read, and some indeed aren't real books at all), in places where they will catch the eyes of my frequent guests and callers.
At times, though, I feel as if I am being judged.
Judged for the shabby, discoloured old paperback edition of Roald Dahl's 'The Twits', by the interlopers in my home.
They don't understand it's significance.
They could never grasp, they could never contemplate, how dear, how venerate I hold this folio to be.
And yet they judge.
I see it in their eyes when they enter through the porch and immediately espy the browning edges of it's pages. I see it as clearly as the hawk sees the dormouse.
And yet... I do nothing.
I remain...
Embarrassed.

Have had it for years and have never read it because I do a fair amount of reading on public transit and at work.

This is the only one that stands out but I’m not ashamed of it because it’s the 2nd book I ever bought back in 2010 and it’s signed :)

First book I ever bought was in high school now I think about it I’m so embarrassed by it I’d never put it on my shelf, my mom has it in another room. Hitch hikers guide to the galaxy. I bought it just because my friend also bought it so I just copied him as thoughtless 13-14yo me did back then. I’ll never read another pointless sci fi book again. My grandma bought me a Harry Potter book around the same age but I never read it. Proud of myself for that.

Ride the tiger might just be the rare kind of self-help book which has something worthwile to say to the right kind of audience -- not necessarily teenagers or cripto-fascists, and definitely not the kind of "intellectual" pseuds you usually see in boards like these, at least you're probably not going to like him very much if you're too attached to something Evola takes the time to shit on, such as anyone who even slightly disagrees with him (then again what's the difference between him and any other philosopher in this regard)
It probably isn't his best book anyway, also he's probably the most "politicized" of the traditionalists so there's necessarily a lot of idiotic "ideologic" posturing going on, whether with or against him, which I don't think was really the point of his oeuvre either way
I suppose it's probably true, as some people say, it would be better to dive into actual tradition rather than traditionalist writers, still I personally think Evola is quite readable and interesting, might be because I'm not forced to rely on translations ;^

Really avoiding anything too "ideological" does not make you guys any more of a grown up than something stupid like avoiding anime or vidya because it might corrupt your soul or intellect or take time away from "important" things or whatever, seeing young people taking stuff like "degeneracy" seriously on internet imageboards really does make reading Evola not the most worthless activity to potentially engage in

A year ago I might have agreed with you, but I've learned that there's a lot more to loneliness than just the amount of people you have around. You can have a ton of friends and still be absolutely lonely. It really comes down to having someone you really connect with/achieve true intimacy with. Plenty of people in relationships even still feel insanely lonely because they don't have that.

Yeah "roasties" might have a hundred guys around but whenever the high wears off I'd be willing to bet that they feel even more alone than the guy that just doesn't have anyone.

He admitted he's an Anglo. Anglo Saxon scum and their various Germanic kin sent Europe into the Dark Ages and prepared the road for the Moors to invade. North Africa and Carthage was White untill the Germanic Vandal tribe destroyed it and then left for the Muslims to waltz all the way into Spain.

Germanic scum always blame Christians for destroying European civilisation and sending us into the Dark Ages yet always fail to notice the fact that Christians in Rome, Greece and even pre Saxon Britain kept their culture alive just fine. Its only the Germanic barbarians that destroyed everything and they were already like that before Christianity.

Even the greatest "Germans" were not even blonde therefore noy really German.

Not him but I have a David Hamilton collection that would trigger the fuck out of any normie, let alone a feminist. My older sister got triggered when I showed her the only book of his I had at the time, La Danse. She has been a shitty amateur photographer for years so I thought she might appreciate Hamilton’s masterful work but all she said, with a displeased look on her face, was “they’re all so young”.

What I only showed her half the book because towards the end you see a breast etc and that would have probably been the final straw before she called the police.

So while I don’t buy books to trigger people, I take pride in collecting books etc that go against what the lemmings believe and supporting ideas I believe inspite of what negativity will come my way as s result.
