A friendly reminder though to those that are unaware: philosophy is not non-fiction.

i cannot sweetheart, for beauty is the only thing worth searching for, and this mediocre strand of existance doesnt provide enough for me to live on

>> No.16629797

>>16629781
non-fiction is what allows you to understand what Beauty is, not this or that beauty, but primordial Beaty, in itself, alone and for itself

>> No.16629809

Fiction is so supreme that non-Fiction has to define itself as negation of Fiction. There is nothing to compare to the power of symbolic-poetic structurings of reality. The sophomoric musings of 'thinkers' always collapse into nothing, into 'enjoyment'. The best 'thinkers' are ultimately all Fictionists.

No, I read to escape the utterly horrific mundanity of real life.

Sometimes I read history. That's about it for nonfiction.

you solipsistic piece of shit, to pay attention to a human instead of the Beauty of Being, which are in fact one and the same, is to be a nihilist unable to look beyond its retinas, a narcisistic scum convinced that the boundaries of the world are retained within its skin

I didn't even realize it but I did. Mainly mathematics, theology, history, philosophy, engineering (related or not to my work).
The only novel I've read this year was a reread of Treasure Island. I still read some poetry though.

Yes. I don't read fiction anymore. It's a loss of time. Most fiction writers are idealists retards anyway.
