"Just ignore this shitty thing if it isn't bothering you"
"Dont worry about the people eating nails for supper every day, why tell them that nails aren't to be eaten? They aren't hurting you :)"

Well i mean i intended to dig at the inherently self-congratulatory nature of rupi's politics and of obsessively sjw stances but i'm hardly a racist

friends
we will make it
together
things are not unending
a phase or
an event
even a president
but we will
survive
because
our publisher
is very rich

I'm divided because rupi's own work is already so comically typical and repetitive that it's practically a self parody at this point, so if i was not outright mocking i dont think people would get it. I think the sweet spot is to write in her style about really vague/stupid/silly subjects

Also toward the end it will lapse into just insanity, like one that will just be the word fuck over and over.

"Some Nietzsche"

Im officially going to make a rupi parody book. What should i call it? I'm torn between "Ruminations on a Perfect Self" and "Ruak Ipur: The Century's Greatest Soul" or "100 Trite and Meaningless Phrases and Maxims You Could Post on Facebook"

Is rupi the biggest fraud in the history of modern art? Besides everyone who rave-reviewed Fountain?

Dude wow this is so epic

About the OP: I will never understand how modern "scholars" can be so dim that they can't realize the past is the past

Not for atheists. For somebody with a religion it does, because they have to reconcile the wager's influence with the legitimacy of faith required for paradise, but for an atheist wagering literally anything is a better chance at a good afterlife than the alternative.

My consciousness is alone and will always be alone. I'll never experience the kind of relationship that my consciousness craves, which is the presence of another raw consciousness. Can't wait til they can upload me.

Pascal's wager is literally the monty hall problem and atheism is the first door. Pick any door, it's statistically better.

just be like everybody wants you to be, then you'll be better off :)

damn i wonder what the message is here maybe it's just so subtle it's beyond my feeble understanding

Just read harrison bergeron and call it good, it's the most direct statement of his common themes you can get and you don't have to waste time on his average prose.

I usually read with subvocalization but don't like... NEED to. One is reading, the other is seeing the words imo. People who are obsessed with eliminating things like subvocalization are the self-help broadcast crowd that don't understand that life is about MEANINGFULLY experiencing and interacting with stimuli, not just doing all the things you can as fast as you can. I feel like it would be a very hollow existence.

boys we got ourselves a real life wild fedora in here, let's run some experiments.

But you miss my problem. At a base level, we are intellectually incompatible. I dont care if he doesn't enjoy shit i do or not so long as i can communicate with him about higher and abstract concepts with some degree of reciprocation. It isn't there with him. We aren't of equal intellect. And that's okay, some people are smarter than others, but i do think it is a big hole and cloud of uncertainty in the future of our relationship. I can't magically make him get this stuff.

No. He originally told me he dropped but now has told me he never went. I just want to be loved anon but i don't see myself staying with him. He's so precious to me, but as beauty fades i'll be stuck with somebody that i can't even discuss basic philosophy with. Not to mention that i'm not even out of the closet. I feel at times like it would be best if this never happened, but then i feel guilt i cant explain. I've never felt any of this shit before.
