As the negroes fall asleep
A lone midwit opens /lit/
Pynched
he sez
Lacking sense
Oh the life,
Oh my life,
Wails so deeply he
When will the normies understand,
The deep sorrow inside my soul?
When will the /pol/tards know,
The struggle of a butterfly,
Such brightly colored dyke?
E - e - e - e - e - voila!
He forces out his throat
For only Nagel understands

He abandoned his cage
Yes. Yes.

Even before the quarantine I would have the feeling that nothing happens in my life. Everything revolved around my work routine, since I had no social life. I had a list of solitary hobbies that I would do and then abandon, or would continue doing, but make so routine that I'd get no pleasure out of them.

Coffee to make my teeth quake
Liquid that makes my bones ache
Substance to stay awake, forevermore

No rest, not tired.
Drained,

My cup of that bitter bean juice

To work I dread,
Excited and thrilling death,
To work I head,
At 10 in the morning,
On Saturday

I've always been pretty bad at writing these kinds of stream of consciousness writing things.
I don't exactly know why, my mind just doesn't seem to spring to any particular train of thought unprompted.
I could just relay what I've done today, that's always a thing you can just rattle off without much thought.
and as I'm just writing down what's on my mind, this probably won't be all to structured, nor all that literally sophisticated.
cos, a nice text doesn't write itself. you obviously need years of writing practice(which I haven't got), and then hours upon hours of careful editing work.
and on that note, I dislike the notion of using fairly obscure words meaning you're a good writer. sure, most people when asked will condemn using unnecessarily complex language, but, or at least I, will still get subconsciously "impressed" by it.
generally, I really dislike the stance of literature against "slang" or vernacular language. isn't literature all about conveying emotions? why shouldn't you *use* the language register which is most emotional to the reader.
it's just old elitism about "proper language", which will either take decades more to fade, or maybe will stay prevalent for all eternity.
for: language change and decentralisation is natural, but natural pedantry is too.
I'm reading some of the replies in the thread and can't quite believe that those are the actual literal thoughts the other anons had.
there's some care put into those words. sure, not that much, but still some care. and that isn't really the point of this thread, right?
alright, this little angry character counter at the bottom right of the reply window just appeared. I think I've reached the 60 words which were wanted.
and while Ive actually thought of this before: would you look at that! I managed to talk about something, and while it needed a prompt to get talking(or writing, rather), the prompt was rather small, so maybe I've imprOOved my blabbering skills.

I reject wokeness not because I have anything against racial minorities or women having more success, but because asset to the progressive agenda asks nothing from be besides subjection. If anyone should feel threatened by generally improved conditions it can only mean that they are put in such a brutalized condition that any added competition is a violation or that they directly profit from the wholesale subordination of classes of people. My resistance to wokeism certainly does not place me in the camp of the white male oligarchs they militate against, all of whom could have have half their wealth confiscated and experience no decrement in their expectations or quality of life. And I'm even willing to accept that half of their wealth MUST be confiscated to avoid more bloodshed and chaos. What the modern left is unable to process or come to terms with is the fact that it is deeply racist, that it can only view the world in terms of race and equality, that it has never stopped to do the hard philosophical work that is required to refute the prevailing system.

The objective conditions as they are today are inexorably bent on violence because violence is ignorance. Everything is geared toward violence at this point, an encroaching midnight threatens to swallow up my nation and because of unfortunate happenstances, all its begrudging accomplices. The descent to tragic insanity has been made made perfect.

as I'm getting towards the end of my book, which I planned for years to be a series, I'm realizing that I'm not sure that I even want to write the sequels.

I don't know what those sequels would be about, and if I did write them I'm not sure how I'd manage to recapture the magic of the first book. I burned out on the story a year ago, and my passion hasn't come back for more than two days straight before I lost it again. I hate the idea of aborting a whole series, but I'm not sure what I could do.

America has the most individualistic, self-over-group, winner-take-all, libertarian culture of any country in the world - by far.

Lately I have been thinking about the reading rooms of libraries. In the modern library they often design these spaces to absorb sound, to be quite, even going as far as putting down carpet, but the old libraries had reading rooms with the acoustics of concert halls. The acoustics of these spaces made it so even quiet sounds would carry through out the entire space, this has the opposite effect than what one would expect, it forced people to be extra mindful of the sound they made, to make every move deliberate and silent. People do not take this extra care in reading rooms anymore and often forget themselves completely, the rise of the laptop has replaced that airy silence with fans, keypresses, and mouse clicks, phones on vibrate, barely audible headphones, you no longer can hear the sounds of the reading room, just that constant din that permeates old and new. Gone is the scrape of a finger finding the edge of the page, the friction of a page leaving one and meeting another, a slight rustle between and a snap as the page goes taunt for just a moment. Pencil against paper. Whispers that can never be made out. A chair so carefully pushed in, not just slid, lifted and gently set down, one leg hitting just before a second, the backrest barely tapping the tables top, the last two legs. Footfalls, that special way of walking everyone adopts in such places, rolling from heel to toe, never letting the sole impact. A pen rolling towards the edge of a table then silence. Tension. Is it falling? Did its owner stop it? Will there be that new sound? How long does it take for a pen to reach the ground from this height? Breath. Hundreds of pages meeting their neighbors as a book is gently closed and placed into a bag. Change in a pocket shifting, 37¢. A pen hitting the floor. A room filled with dozens of discrete and indentifiable sounds, but really just one sound, the sound people intent and absorbed, perfectly fitted with their environment.

Contemplating Will, how there is Will as lack which is truly the will which both Lacan and Schopenhauer saw, a Will that is a void, a hunger which makes you seek to fill it, to satisfy a lack, and I contrast this to a far more wholesome Will, the positive force of Will that Nietzsche has, the process or force that deleuze describes.

How can it be a an active force but also a lack and drain? There must be two wills, mirrors within myself and all others, one seeking to go forth and another seeking something to fill its void. But what is it, it is the hole left in the heart of men by God. How then can you cross these two wills, how can both wills be perfected.

It is Christ, who emptied himself in kenosis and filled us with his Holy Spirit, his boundless love. The void of ones heart is fulfilled by the love of the Holy Spirit, our emptiness for his emptiness. And our positive will when directed towards he finds an endless flight, a boundless sky of divinity and unknowability. More and more of god and his nature unveiled always, the twin wills satisfied in one through one cross.

I love you Lord, I love you lord, show me please right knowledge of you and let me will always be towards you, and let my will always be from you.
