Thoughts?

Got a link? I feel like reading something light that will make me chuckle.

I do not know.

What I do and what I have achieved makes me happy. But regardless, whether I am happy or not, I intend to achieve unique things.

I am naive.

Stoicism is just what I need.

Thank you!

>>8371376
Stoics, ok.
Ok.
No, I want an extraordinary life. I am achieving it by any means necessary. That is why I am here.

>>8371382
I see what you're saying. This relieves me, to think on Freedom rather than Fuckoffery

I study computer engineering at the country's top university. It is scary, it helps me develop thinking skills that are somehow appliable to real life. It gives me so much to work with that it sometimes becomes a burden.

Currently, I'm on summer break, but when I go back into class all of this turns down and I just study and focus on that.

>>8371356
I am not, friend. I know what I'm doing and I've read and lived enough to come to these conclusions. But I do acknowledge that I am young, but even so, I wish to learn more, have all the bases covered, if that's even possible.

I realize I take inspiration from Hitler, Castro, Nietzsche, Hesse; guys that flipped the pancake either by work or by the way they lived.

I want to see if I'm wrong, I want to disprove myself. Help me do that.

How do you deal with rebelliousness?

Everything I've read so far has me leaning towards never settling, never being comfortable with what there is, but to change things and to turn them into what I want to achieve.

I now realize that I need to rebel against what I believe. But I need other people's insights.

What is your take on this? Any books you can recommend?

Thoughts?

What do you guys think about Hermann Hesse?

I love his magical realism, I believe it fucks Gabriel García Marquez up his butt.

Dross, coño.
No es un buen libro, aprovecho para decírtelo de nuevo. Te mando muchos saludos y de verdad creo en ti como artista y creador, pero Luna de Plutón deja mucho que desear.

Un abrazo desde Venezuela.

I read that, it's definitely good but it's outdated.

It's not bad, at all. But that story within another story bullshit bored me

This is for you

Nothing, friend

The Internet has changed everything
We are now aware of the world, it is easier than ever for anyone to have knowledge at their disposal.

But do they take advantage? Not all, only some.

It is the era of consumism, of the struggle of information. The avability of information forces new sources to become more relevant in order to be taken into account.

It is a new age indeed, Perhaps the age of memes. Who the fuck knows, 50 years for that matter.

But people are the same, people are important. I recommend you read works on Personalism. Wojtyla,Mounier, Hildebrand.

People are as important as they were 1000 years ago, only that now, people are able to exist easily through virtual realities. That is where the difference lies, what will allow us to perceive what the fuck is different today.

And, remember, the Internet will NOT GO AWAY. It is here to stay. Twitter will exist forever, 4chan too.

Good luck, friend

Do you write enough to accomplish your goals?

Slave morality adapts itself to where it is applied. North Korea, Venezuela. Those are modern communists under other names (Juche and 21st-century socialism respectively)

But it's the same bullshit in essence: "How to fuck them over for good Ver 1.x"

>>8312174
Good advice

>>8312188
Not objective, but good nonetheless.

For me is to try and write a story that you'd want to read. Remember that the reader doesn't know anything about what is coming on the next pages. Think as if you were telling something that you know A LOT of and nobody else, and it's true, it's your imagination.

Have fun, be unexpected. I like to draw a little bubble-and-arrow map of my characters and their relations to each other. You can see what links them together and develop them further, always remembering to create a captivating story.

Fahrenheit 451 is very good, but Ray Bradbury's Zen in the Art of Writing teaches so much about storytelling. I highly recommend it.

Good luck!

A framework. You taught me something today, thanks!

>>8312926
View both as tools.

But 'framework' is interesting too

>>8311966
No. See?

It is tight, but I cannot see stars from up close. I cannot differentiate between a carbon atom and a calcium atom.

What I see is people, what I read are words.
