Based fellow Mishima-chad

He types and cackles with glee, posting a bare-chested man from among the assortment in his folder. Fat-faced, flatulent faggot. Snot-nosed and predisposed to sucking rock hard cocks and hairy testicular rocks- suckles on the farmers balls whilst draped in a female's overalls. Faustian faggot- im-pacted by dick in his tight hobbits burrow, brow-furrowed and ass gaping- rambunctious rear raised and anal cavity awaiting.

i tried making the wojak face but it hurts my jaw

sure.
the sailor fucks his mom btw

Ignoring all the seething racists in this thread; sell me on Iqbal. Is his philosophical work good? Where should I start with him? I've read some poetry by him and can read Urdu at a decent level.

Constantly. I have this constantly.

How am I breathing? Am I inhaling enough? Thinking, thinking. Get my mind off it for a split second- then recall it again. It's ruining my life, being conscious of every single fucking breath all of the time.

I don't know what helps, anon, I don't know.

Hello. Could someone break down what Neech-bro is saying here? Is it just a prelude to the hedgehogs dilemma?

This is aphorism 40, from Beyond Good and Evil.

I have absolutely no idea. I've been fixated on getting my first draft done.

You have any idea where I could post it?

The writing style precedes something being labelled a Light Novel, so, no.

That said, Nisioisin writes great stuff. Pushes the envelope and deconstructs every trope he can get his hands on. Try Zaregotto by him. I really enjoyed it.

>>17233616
Yeah, it usually is. Fast, almost stream of conciousness, with hate minimum in terms of description.

Based. Might need to add that in.

Him being nonchalant while bleeding out is a very conscious decision; foreshadows a plot point. The dialogue being corny, is not. I'll work on it, thanks.

>>17230548
It's a somewhat vacuous term, LN. I'm making copious use of the tropes and using the fast first-person narration of a Light Novel, so that's what I'm calling it.

Fucking love Asano.

For (almost) this exact blend of themes, Murakami is your best bet, particularly:

Norwegian Wood
Kafka on the Shore

For stuff that is aesthetically similar:

First Love - Turgenev
Snow Country - Kawabata
Snow Falling on Cedars - Gutterson
The Secret Garden - Burnett
No Longer human - Dazai
Lolita - Nabokov

Hot nostril GF when?

Stop it!
You're too kind uwu

Thanks I wrote this about my GF nose.

My nose hairs prick with vicious resignation; I hath not smelt thee oleaginous odor, I hath not touched thee nimble nostrils.

The gleam of the gibous, preceding the waxing. Nose, waxing. Snot clings above the gaping gorge; snot erect upon the precipice; I erect at the sight of this- round nosed bliss.

And you, nose prosed, left posed, round nosed; predisposed to nosy pontification; licketh the nose: what in tarnation? Presuppose I disposed with all praise tainting the platonic semblance of thy nose: malaise?

Theory is grey, Faustian friend, but the golden nose of life is green. Green at the seams, seems, clings and flings with the possessor of my oppressor; I'd rather devour her nose than undress her. Rather tongue the nose than caress her.

Art thou pale for weariness, nostril cleft, nostril at left: having climbed the heavens, and gazing upon the Earth? Wandering, companionless?

Literature regarding the increasing augmentation of our perception with technology?

In the dreary span of a decade the smartphone has been rendered an appendage, and has therefore nestled itself within our perceptions. We have been modified through convenience.

Bizzare to think how obscene amounts of synthetic data is perpetually bled into our daily lives and we don't bat an eye.

反乌托邦?

You talk about reproduction as if it's inert, or a whim existing within a vacuum, which simply isn't true.

The overbearing need to reproduce that is coded within our genes is the genesis of our social fabric and shapes how men interact with the fair sex, and vice versa. It shapes our mannerisms (guys unconsciously puffing out their guests, broadening their shoulders; girl's voices rising a pitch, their postures) and very conscious and deliberate actions as well, i-e playful flirting, courtesy or chivalry.

These phenomena exist in order to make oneself appealing to whom they want to appeal to, and to appeal is to attract. Seducing someone is commonly defined as enticing them into sexual activity with you, which is the sole aim of inducing romantic attraction. Note how enticing is not "coercing" or "forcing". So no, seduction is a vital part of biology and not rape.

But I understand that saying something quasi-profound like "seduction is rape, heh" in front of an arthoe would make you seem jaded and cynical, which, ironically, is still a form of seduction, as you mean to attract her to your image.

>>16242646

Seducing someone is rape? All romantic interaction is predicated upon seduction of some form. You might just have outdone Baudrillard, cretin.

>>16242666

Absolutely agree. The more I read Baudillard, the more he outs himself as a major autist. But a troubled, lovable autist.

Because reading "exotic" authors is apparently a sign of higher culture among pseuds. No Longer Human is trademark jap literature and Yozo is "literally me". The subject matter also lends itself to mass appeal since it's ostensibly profound and "tortured".

That said No Longer Human was a really pleasant book, and I enjoy his writing. I plan to start The Setting Sun once I can actually get my hands on it (unlikely).
