i'm in such a depressed mood today, idk why, i ate some korean chicken from a food truck yesterday, maybe it had some weird chemicals or something that messed up my emotions, that's the only thing i can think of. what triggered me is just thinking about how literally everything in life in the 21st century just comes down to how well you can market yourself online and curate a presence on social media, but it's not like i didn't know this yesterday when i felt fine, so i'm gonna have to go with it being a chemical thing.

How happy I am to finally have all the time I desire to devote to my leisure! I will finally be able to study seriously all this Latin, mathematics, philosophy, poetry and theology as I see fit. It is all the more pleasant that my good friend is taking more and more pleasure and assiduity in my company, I hope to be able to declare my love to her when her mock exams are over. What beautiful prospects! Sometimes Providence is really of an ineffable help; yesterday I was melancholic and today it makes me feverish with impatience.

Honeysuckle is in bloom, and the air smells sweet as a result. I saw a Yellowhammer, a colorful type of bird, on a tree in my yard this morning. Tomorrow I am going on a hike through a ravine that is home to the opening of an underground wellspring. Due to the local geography, the cold river acts like a natural air conditioner, and makes the area 20 or so degrees colder than what it should be.
I am marathoning all episodes of the anime Big O tonight, and I am amazed at how appreciable alot of the character writing is now that I have progressed somewhat in overcoming my personality disorder of clinical narcissism.
Though the giant robot fight sequences arent really my bag, I am reminded why it is a favorite. Dorothy grappling with claiming humanity as an android feels, dare I say, touching and relatable to my own struggle.
I hope you are all also having a nice time, /lit/. Though we may all be, by degrees, warped, lonely, perhaps bitter, and maladjusted at best, insane at worst, I cannot help but feel a brotherly love to each of you.

I feel like I fucked up.

a few years ago I formed a writing group with my friends thinking it would help pressure me into writing. It worked to an extent, but I got burned out pretty quickly and still kept pushing until I'd damaged myself. I decided to take a break a few weeks ago, but I still have to run the writing group every week so the pressure is still on me even when I'm not writing.

Then start eating and working out. Unironically I feel so much better about myself ever since I put on some muscle and filled out my frame. Looking in the mirror I actually look and feel like an adult, as opposed to a skinny child. And that confidence trickles into many other areas of my life.

anon, word of advice as someone who went through that: trying desperately to live up to an arbitrary societal standard of worth is a quest that will make you a worse person, and an unhappier one. Take some time to reflect and understand what you really want out of life. it's often not the thing you think you want, and once you know what it is it will feel like a weight has come off your shoulders

Gyno sucks but I can speak from experience that women do not give a shit about it. Of course, your chest will never be perfect in your own eyes, and sure you'll never be a calendar model but it's definitely something that people with gyno think about way more than anyone else does.

I am a slender yet Falstaffian charismatic whose life, when I look back on it, has been one long grift into the comfiest possible circumstances via the paths of lowest possible resistance. Willed teleportation for changes of scenery rapid as imagined ones would be a plus, since my idea of mischief is planting gardens where the eye of idle malice hates the sight of them like it hates life itself.

Is the government of a king different from the government of democratically elected politicians? It seems to me that the democratic government is nothing more than a king pried-up. By electing parties and politicians, we elect the temperament and ideas of our gellatine ruler. The democratic system leads to uniform disagreement. The royal system leads to fluctuating unity.

yes, tha'ts why morality and gender roles totally don't vary along timescales or across cultures. notions of morality are the same for mesoamerican cultures built on human sacrifice, mediterranean cultures built on war rape, post-17th century europe, and the contemporary US. gender roles are exactly the same for amazonian tribesmen, matriarchal indigenous southeast asian cultures, and western europeans

I don't know what I want at this point anymore. I have noticed that when I verbalize my desires that they don't happen. And I'm ashamed of saying this because I consider myself religious but, I think God can hear me only when I verbalize. And God does the opposite of what I want.

Write it out and I’ll provide my thoughts. Language and writing are the means by which we refine our consciousness. And by dialoguing with others our collective consciousness is refined. Let us do the work of God and converse! Perhaps these desires aren’t what you *truly* desire? Do they instead stem from your lower, self-gratifying nature? This is sometimes the case with me.

Just finished No Country For Old Men. I felt like it definitely had its moments but it really just isn't for me. I prefer work that blurs the line between prose and poetry, and the prose just didn't do it for me. Don't get me wrong – McCarthy's style is absolutely perfect for what he does. I was pretty heavily impacted by some sections, in no small part due to the rustic sparsity by which they're related, but overall it kind of wore me down. This is to say nothing (actually nothing) about the characters, story, themes, and how it all twists and swirls around to say what he wanted to say. McCarthy is obviously a really bright guy who, despite all appearances, I believe actually has done the legwork. Chigurh's marriage of nihilism to determinism, for example, is at once entirely paradoxical and compellingly cohesive. More importantly, it breaks down in just the right ways at just the right times.

I just didn't like it that much. Books for this feel?

She instinctively reached out for the latch a few paces out. Flakes of paint, loosed under the pressure of her grip, gave way uncomfortably. Clenching her fist and hiding the debris in a latent punch she turned at once and smiled, her eyes quivering.

Walking the stacks of my local library I stumbled upon this 900 page double columned behemoth 'Big Book of Modern Fantasy' short stories. It would take me months to get through it and this is what I'm reading on the side for fun so, any recommendations on 'must reads'? I'm sure many stories will be unfamiliar but maybe some authors jump out at you. A lot of the post 90s stories are being published in English for the first time which is cool. Library also had the companion volume of pre 1950s classic fantasy

>Information technology made Plato anxious. Writing, he feared, would lead people to abandon their memory, to trust in “external characters which are no part of themselves.” Now we find ourselves living through a new revolution in information technology, one with consequences every bit as dramatic and likely even more profound. How could we not be anxious? Our old ways of communicating are either becoming obsolete or finding themselves dramatically ‘repurposed’ before our very eyes.

>Including the grandest one of all: literature.

>Literature is one of those categories that have vexed the human intellect for centuries. Typically we think of the classics – Shakespeare, Melville, Joyce, and so on – when we think of literature. If we don’t know exactly what it is, we like to think we know what it looks like. In other words, we use resemblance as our primary criterion. And indeed when you look at the output of contemporary literary authors you find no shortage of family resemblances: lyricism of prose, thematic sophistication, quotidian subject matters, and of course the all important yen for experimentation.

Perhaps there is the same amount of good and evil in everyone. We differ only in the vents from which our good and evil pressures hiss out. Lovecraft may have been a racist, but something else he was not, and on the whole he was neither more evil nor more good than any other man. Some say: Lovecraft should not be read because his racism necessarily enters into his works, even into those where no racist sentence can be found; underneath the sentences lies the whole man, thus also his racism. This may be true, but then one can reproach all authors for letting their evil aspects flow into their texts, whether intentionally or unintentionally.

The people who want to erase books are the ones to watch. In a good free society, you can tell exactly who the most dangerous deviants are because they read. Erasing "bad" books is an attempt to provide cover for those degenerates, by a token removal of "bad apples", as though none will be left. If you let them burn books, you'll let them burn bodies eventually. You can't destroy a territory by burning the map.

All negative things are an obstacle for the hero to overcome, and all positive things are the fruits of my effort.

When I read Confucius, I want to become a virtuous man, and when I read de Sade, I want to whip pregnant women and masturbate into their wounds, in fact, my life does not change in any way: I remain my bored self, drifting through the days, going to work without energy, lying on the sofa without pleasure, idling away my time, and having no fear of the future, on account of not being afraid of death, nor clinging to life. I read in order to manipulate the people I should love, so that my life, as I lead it now, is not disturbed by them, but rather financed by them. I reject all guilt. If the rulers do not know the right way, how can the common man of the people not get lost? Everything is running after profit.The worthy man is like a drop of water: he does not quench the thirst, but tortures the thirsty. No one listens because no one has ears.

That's only really a reasonable concern for dealing with psychiatrists, a significant number are jaded old fuckers that are sick of dealing with the mentally ill that won't subscribe to their treatment plan, but therapists tend to be fine. Lots of therapies are more dependent on asking you questions and proposing probing explanations when you get stuck, rather than monologed advice, so there's not much room to be suspicious of them talking down to you. And of course most psych care centers understand that you might not like the first therapist you get, so it's easy enough to request a different one

One of my chickens died today. I think it's the most I've cried since I was a kid. I'm not a very emotional guy but for some reason it just broke me. This chicken in particular was always such a fighter, always seemed to be able to take on anything, and yet she died in my arms and it seemed like there was nothing either of us could do about it. The worst part is, she probably ended up getting sick because of an injury she got that was partially my fault.

I don't even check most threads I post in anymore because I know what the replies will be anyway. Social platforms have become so predictable it feels like being stuck in time.
I'm living a life of habits that make no sense to me. I do creative work that I recognize as something that is meant to entertain others but I won't share it because I've given up. It takes such an absurd amount of effort to even show something to others and find a few people who are actually interested.
I keep asking myself how is it possible that there are so many people online and yet they all feel like the same dozen people and will only accept others who belong somewhere in that selection.
What I make has no meaning to me because its meaning was finding others, and it has no meaning to others because they don't care. But if I abandon this waste of time I'll have nothing except my extremely bleak cynicism that is on its way to permeate every inch of my life.
People are starting to ask me if I'm OK out of the blue because I look like I'm in horrible pain at rest and I can't control my expression. I look daggers at everyone. The more I look back at my past or the things I enjoy the more I despise them for being nothing but an expression of the same consumerist culture that put me in this position. I feel pain everywhere, head feet hands chest. I sleep like shit. I can't read anymore. I'm not writing regularly anymore. I feel so alienated.
I don't even know if talking to someone would open up some possibility, because the last few times I had the chance I backed out readily. When I look at my past behavior I understand that I am not good at acting because every action of mine is a way to dissimulate that I don't like people and I don't like life. I wish I could explain this to all the people I mistreated or offended.

I very much dislike partaking in certain dehumanizing ideas, such as the NPC meme or "philosophical zombie" concepts, as I want to think that most people are just like me.

But sometimes you see people so politically deranged and extremist that I don't even really see them, I see through them, and see the cold underlying reality that has given rise to their ideas. Ideas themselves are viral, and for someone to be so taken by a viral idea makes me feel like they are less like a person and more like slave for something that has "evolved" to be as insidious of an idea as possible- they are less choosing their belief and more letting a cold facet of the physical, unyielding reality we live in choose for them. It is why I call them "Slaves to the Demiurge" no matter how schizo-tier that sounds.

Does anyone else feel really bad that they lived a not /lit/ life in their teens and early 20s? And what I mean by not /lit/ isn’t not like LARPing as dark academia or something. What I mean is like not really reading, being a stereotypical bro or virgin NEET, being a redneck, chasing after dumb shit like finance or software jobs, generally putting off reading and writing until you were older.

I’ve discovered that reading and writing is the only thing I genuinely want to do with my life for myself, not for anyone else but I’ve spent so much time being a completely different person and that really bothers me. I just was so confused and had no idea who I was.

I read a post lately talking about how the internet lets you disconnect from the world. It's got me thinking. Just who are you if that's possible? If you disconnect from the world, from your body, from your brain. What's left? Your consciousness? Just who are you at this point if you only exist in this space of the internet? Are you the posts? The connected router to world wide web? Can you still identify as human if you abandon your body in this space? It's like how profile pictures, avatars, and all of those are like an identity in this space. However, here's the thing. What are you before that? I'm talking about before the default user image as well. What represents you? What do you identify as? Your mind is being projected onto this place as if your body and eyes are just a vehicle, like a window into this larger, much larger than life place. Perhaps the internet is even greater than the universe. Is it just the internet though? Does the mind's imagination count as place? Wouldn't it feel nearly endless? It's as if you could identify as everything and anything at that moment. It feels so abstract, but there has to be something I'm forgetting. Just who are we when we exist beyond our flesh and blood? Do we become a part of something greater? A type of collective human consciousness that you simply join?

Women are more pragmatic in modern love than men, and so man must be more sober. Ask yourself, removed from the situation as you can, whether you have not ventured into unreasonable wishes, that will only bring you pain. often we deem ourselves most true in passion, yet it is then we are most dominated by the rebellious unconscious.

What are the staples you tend to see on a good science-fiction/fantasy story? This isn't about pointing out specific overdone tropes or cliches, more like identifying recurring generalist elements and patterns that are proven to make for an engaging escapist narrative.

At the top of my head I can think of:
- protagonist is an outsider in some capacity thrown into an unfamiliar situation
- non-human pet-like buddy
- conflicting factions with their own set of strengths and values
- supporting ensemble cast with contrasting personalities, often representatives of the different factions coming together
- ruling authority figures playing pivotal roles
- opposing forces competing for the same tangible thing (mcguffin, resource, location, person...)
- special powers or abilities that allow for extraordinary fits not possible in the real world
- takes you through a vast set of very distinctive geographical environments
- vs nature sequence - surviving through an harsh location or (un)natural disaster
- a really large building is significant to the story
- ruins
- very imposing non-human singular entity as an obstacle (like a monster, robot, superweapon, battleship, etc)
- chase or escape sequence - more like a race than a direct battle
- an "epic" large scale war-like sequence between clashing groups
- a more intimate one-on-one confrontation between the protagonist and the villain or anti-hero
- someone switches sides
- tragic death

What ingredients are still missing?

Yes, I'm done now. I was never going to become the next Faulkner, the next Nabokov or the next Joyce, but I hid behind the language barrier to avoid criticism for months, maintaining an illusion that was fun to live in while it lasted. I had thought my country's education system was topmost in the world, but this turned out to be utter bollocks. A child of 18, a person ten years my junior, has a greater vocabulary than I, who had to look up the word “topiary”, and no one likes the expression theory of art anymore, I am likened to a long lost dinosaur.
This will be my final post on /lit/. I've been humiliated and exposed as a fraud. My writing is pretentious, infantile, banal drivel. My observations are dull, my language grade school level. My tenses are mixed up; I use colloquialisms, ellipses and onomatopoeia. I mix tired and trite idioms together to obfuscate their unoriginality with a veneer of irony; I have continued to recite ornate Jewish chimpanzee parables with diminishing returns. The parable seemed very clearly to me to be asking me whether or not the now-grown-adult can choose. I say yes, of course, but that's not my issue.
I was never cut out for writing. I began writing my "book" on January 6th. Since then I've produced 82 thousand words for it. These words are a tide of garbage without value, without insight, without form. The themes of time, space, infinity, memory and pointless duelling are not present in my work. It was never real writing, it was anime and weebshit. Look how many words I wrote, because apparently literature is bodybuilding and just aimlessly typing will somehow improve my writing. I don't even know what genre it is that I'm writing. Is it autofiction? A comedy? A picaresque?
Regardless, I have failed. I have put down my pen. Never again will my fingers click-clack across the keyboard. No more outlines, no more characters. Goodbye

“I’ve never been more terrified than when I went to the Sahara desert for vacation once. And that's why.. when I named the book Dream of a Desert Night. I thought maybe I should name it Dream of a Desert Nightmare.” He said with a disgusting chuckle. “Because these sand dune- well first it was completely pitch black. I was in this cave in Texas when I was a kid and the lights went out, darkest darkness I've ever seen, or not seen rather. Anyways so I can't see anything at night. Except for right above you is a million trillion stars. Just wow so many fucking stars. It's like dark-black-void-nothingness and right at the horizon , just an infinite number of stars it seems. And it's the only way you can tell that it’s the horizon at all. And that was on the night of the new moon, where there was no moon, right. On the full moon all the sand seemed, well you could see the sand now, it seemed like this black silver powder all over. Maybe like a black-blue powder. But the main reason it was so terrifying was the sandstorms, They were completely invisible at night, There was just all of a sudden a loud bulldozer-train noise and bam it's right on top of you. That’s why we couldn't travel at night, like I thought, wouldn't it be easier to travel at night, you know it's cooler, but no it was freezing, and it's easier to get warm than stay cool. So I thought we just have some jackets on or something. But no the darkness of everything, NO LIGHT, nothing but the stars, and the sandstorms, you can't see them. So well of course we were in these caves at night, the guy would take us from cave to cave, and even if there were all good amounts of daylight left sometimes, a few times we would just have to stop for the day. He would always say ‘this good here, today we not go, the next cave is tomorrow.’ He said it just like that every time but he always sounded kind of sad when he said it, weird, whatever that was about. But anyways so we were in this high up cave always high up and that way, is because, because.. because the sand. Sorry almost lost my train of thought there, umm, oh yes the high up caves, the sandstorms would shift them around. I'm sorry the sand would be shifted around by the sandstorms. (1/2)

Yes once, on I think maybe the third or fourth day umm, or night rather, we heard that bulldozer noise and are guide shouts out ‘cover up’ So they taught us that means we need to face our face to the grounds and get in safe kind of you know um, position. So I pull my jacket over my head in that sort of halfway when it's raining. But then when the storm passed we just walked out the cave. Which I forgot to say we climbed up a bit to get in. And it was there just at ground level now, this massive sand dune that hadn't been there before. The sad thing is our guide, his name was Muhammad, he told us his cousin went missing. He said ‘that why I only use the high caves, low caves, there is too much sand’. But then we're going along and there's this massive jungle rainforest in the middle of the desert, this oasis's there. Crazy vacation, like a hellcation. Really cool in hindsight and the things that I learn, but damn it was not so much fun then, so fucking fucked you know?”

You ever feel like a poser or a fraud? Like maybe you want to write a certain character or story that has slightly semi-autobiographical elements but you give them certain traits, or experiences, or put them in a setting that you have no experience with?

What a cruel joke my life is.
Being so obsessed with greatness while living on an obscure small town, ridden with crime, at the end of the world.
Praising strength so much, while having such a frail and skinny body.
Loving heroism while lacking courage.
Obsessing over beauty while I lack of it myself.
God must be laughing at me.

isn't it such a tragedy to see so many souls write solemnly over a "lost love" when asked to write. as if their sole need was to simply be reassured by someone other than themselves. as if another's reality justifies your own. it is like buddha says, we are all just here to fuck

im making a graphic novel. story has been about 75% finished and im getting through the sketching process for what i have complete.
i haven't published any of my work before since im a bit of a perfectionist and dont see my work as releasable until its actually done.

my question is should i attempt to publish it, or has the market changed to where releasing comics online can be more favorable?

it is pretty intimidating to me to get it published in my eyes, but a lot more hands off compared to doing all the publicity, managing a site or social media, and other things im just not experienced in that comes with online comics.

in the end i would like a physical book in my hands by the time my graphic novel is done, but i know that isnt off the table if i release it as a webcomic either. and i know i shouldn't take money and profits into account but it is a thought on my mind which would be more favorable for me.

im a creative type, not a social media influencer so im stuck on this question and what could be the best fit for me.

I just wanted to say that I was ready to give up on McCarthy after No Country and I'm really glad I didn't. I picked up Suttree and it's pretty fucking amazingly written.

>honest conversations almost definitely would help, the fact that you have written this out demonstrates that you have things about yourself that you feel you need to understand. getting off lit and trying to connect with people sounds like the primary thing you need
I don't usually read mass replies but this kind of answer is what is making me stop checking on the threads and overall leaving 4chan for weeks at a time until I feel particularly shitty and I have to rant. "Get off the internet" is such a bogus non-answer I don't even understand why anyone would bother typing it down, but then again I don't understand mass repliers. Do you just want (you)s from as many people as possible?
Of course I wouldn't be here if had the possibility or means to socialize with interesting people. The reason why I because an internet nerd is because I wanted to escape from the dull everyday reality of my shitty hometown in a shitty country. But then you'll just tell me that I did it wrong or I haven't tried hard enough and more bogus conjectures to validate this just world theory that bored teens with no life experience love to jerk off about when they're online.
