I don't want this to sound like a disgusting blog post, but I've always been a fan of philosohy since I was a teen and never in my life would I imagine finding a community of people who spend day and night talking about it. I always had a normal normie social life but I could never speak of philosophy to my friends unless it was through some jew self help disgusting book. And not only can I talk about philosophy all I want here, its combined with my love for shitpost which makes it 10x better. I feel like some part of my soul is saciated and fulfilled. Thats all I wanted to say, keep being based you schizo faggots

i also find it fun to meme and shitpost here. lower activity than /fit/ but is usually more fun. an interesting observation: there are those on both /fit/ and /lit/ that are anti-anime. perhaps /fit/ and /lit/ are the most mainstream/normie of the Four Channel boards.

I agree with you OP. There’s no other place I can photoshop pictures of Roger Scruton onto a crouton and people will find it amusing. As much as I find arguing with people here a massive timesink that distracts me from actually important stuff, I still relish the fact that a haven like this will exist for slightly highbrow autism posting. Not to mention the fact that I would never have the breadth of knowledge I have now if it wasn’t for the countless Wikipedia articles I’ve read purely to refute some random anon.

This was a couple of weeks ago (maybe months, can't exactly remember), but basically, the OP opened a Google Doc, set it so that anybody can write and delete, and for almost a week straight /lit/ anons just word-vomited. Eventually the doc got so big that it wasn't loading, so they closed it and opened a second one, then a third and final one, before they closed the project and set about to editing it. I think I still have PDFs of the final three versions somewhere on my hard-drive.

Most of what was written was shit, but there were some short stories and poetry that actually had effort put into them and actually were enjoyable to read. I wanted to collect some of the better ones into a "Condensed Coronameron" or a "Coronameron: Best Of" seperate PDF, but several of the anons started crying about how it "goes against the spirit of the project" and "if you want to pick and choose what stories to collect, fuck you" probably because they wanted their low-effort shitposting mixed in permanently with the other, actually good stuff. Finally, the project was completed, and the final version is up on Lulu for print-on-demand (it's about $20 I think). This final version has everything that wasn't deleted by other anons before the documents were locked (the editors said they left everything in, even the shitposts, and just formatted the PDFs so it could be printed as a book).

I'm not a nostalgia faggot but the quality of almost all boards has gone down the drains significantly. Identity politics, specifically white supremacists always destroy any community they come in contact with and polarize everyone in a way that's unnatural. I understand why punks were so hostile towards nazi's, they had to deal with the same shit in their own subcultures

Glad it's been of benefit to you , OP, but I'd personally rather philosophy had its own board and this was devoted entirely to literature. 99% of the retarded nonsense I see posted here is philosophy related.

Waking up each day after graduating college has been very strange. I know why I keep doing it, but I'll have to say, this interim time has just been really strange -- a twilight existence.
