Walked down to the dojo determined to give the young karatekas a free lesson. Needed to caffeinate before the demonstration. My head was starting to ache. I should cut back, no more than four cups a day. Kicked open the coffee shop door. Cartwheeled to the register and grabbed the barista by her septum ring.
‘The usual?’ she said.
I gave her a light slap and a kiss to the affirmative and she got to work double time on my americano. Sat pondering my coming duel while the machine hissed and steamed.
‘Americano!’ she stepped back to pass as I ran a slant route toward the door and caught the cup over my right shoulder at a full sprint.
Shot-gunned the coffee and checked the action on my Berretta. Watched Sifu Zhe roundhouse kicking eight-year-olds across the mats through the glass window. Damn, he’s good. His GT3 sat gleaming near the curb. Did a hood-slide before diving Max Payne through the glass while unloading a magazine in his direction. 15+1 rounds in the A-zone and Zhe slumped gurgling over yellow-belt.
‘Class dismissed.’

If you are a defective man who just wants a mommy: good in a bad way you don't notice, until mommy leaves, then very bad in a way you do notice

If you are a real man who understands what women are, and that not only are they incapable of true love but also that mommyish love is not appropriate in adulthood anyway: bad and annoying, as you realize what they're really doing when they cling devotedly to your chest or hang off your every word is clinging devotedly to themselves and worshiping themselves, they are the per se object of their own love and you are merely the mediate object (you provide them with proof that they are as loved as they feel they deserve to be)

There is nothing spiritually nourishing in being a woman's teddy bear so she can feel less alone. A woman's romantic nature is like her physical sexual nature, a receptacle or hole waiting to be filled. For woman herself-as-void is the primary reality, and she projects "something-that-fills-me" as the entity she needs. You are a contingent instance of an abstract principle, any teddy bear would do. There is no real love in that, no real encounter with the other. Women fall in love with convicts, rapists, bums, and conquerors who just killed their entire families. Even a dog's love is greater than that.

nta but he's right I'm afraid. the older I get the older I understand. you end up okay with all of that. some women do love truly, but the majority of them just love themselves by proxy. every woman I've connected with or came to know on a deep, personal level was fucked up in some way or another, on the subject of romance. I work in a feminine field. I've had multiple married women tell me straight that they don't really love their husband. "why did you marry that guy, then?" I asked, and they would all answer something along the lines of "he loves me, he dropped everything and moved for me, he really likes me, he takes care of me"...

it gets sickening sometimes for reasons I wont mention there. it's alright though. that's just how these things work. but don't expect to truly grow from the illusion of partnership. they view us as assets, stuff they can show off, stuff they can use to reach the overarching goal of fucking themselves. that's it

There is not one redeemable quality about me. Only flaws. I know that self depreciation is a sign of covert narcissism, but I'm not trying to come through like that. I'm conducting a neutral observation of myself in the perception of others. There isn't a single strong characteristic about me (physically, emotionally, social) that one could base their attraction on. Everything about me falls short, I have potential, but no will to actually improve. Basically, I'm one of those people that gets looked at as "wow, they seem ____. but, not enough for me to care". Another reason to this hard-locked perception is my confidence. The way I hold myself, view myself, and conduct myself is soaked in self-consciousness and low self esteem. People naturally mirror this feeling and therefore, view me low. I can change this, but it's hard. I fall short in every way.

the women who are capable of loving are those who have been yearning for it/deprived of it in some capacity (but not completely, because that's how you end up with bpd). the gentlest and most loving woman i've ever known was the most emotionally wounded one. she was so fragile, and yet she caressed things with the utmost reverence. they probably only make 0.1% of the world's population at best. but there are truly kind-hearted women out there, and they're worth the effort.

Most people these days, men and women, are helplessly worshipping themselves at all times and are therefore incapable of loving. It goes beyond genders. It's just more difficult to pierce that veil for women than it is for men, and naturally so. They have lesser incentives to do so. They also don't get as internally shattered during their upbringing as we do. It's not fancy.
I found true brotherly love in the countryside of the third world, away from the doomscrollers. It sounds like a terrible cliché, but that is the truth. Never seen such radiant smiles in my entire life, despite their lack of dental hygiene.

Would you bat an eye if a man said he didn't really love his wife? It's a sad fact that many people marry just because they feel they should, or they don't want to be alone, or something along those lines. And if you're the kind of guy who thinks that women are only using you as an "asset," you're probably not very capable of love either.

This but anons also don’t realize there is a different kind of love than the puppy love fiery passion or lust. Every relationship has its honeymoon phase but the serious ones turn into something more subdued and like a partnership. I bet a lot of anons here transpose their ideals onto a girl they like and then are disappointed when she turns out to be…a person just like everyone else. Too many anons have their head in the clouds me thinks. It seems there is a violent juxtaposition going on to: the Madonna whore complex. There is their ideal sweet pure virgin they daydream about but they become fixated on all the so called whore behavior of women. They become confused and bitter. It doesn’t help that many anons are narcissistic or have fragile egos, the chance of rejection or, *gulp*, being with a girl who isn’t a virgin, or, *gulp*, even being cheated on, such a thing would break them

Good points, anon.
The only real value that should make for essential criteria is ''does she love goodness itself?'', or in the other terms, ''how kind is she?''. After that it just becomes a question of how that manifests itself through her, and if those manifestations are compatible with you. I insist on this point because it's the most concrete attribute I can think of. Everything else is malleable to different degrees. You just have to be forgiving, towards yourself and towards all that surrounds you.

NTA but I agree.
It's easy to be lulled into being "in love" with a girl during the honeymoon phase. Then that ends and you're stuck with someone you're not even sure you actually like. I began to think I wasn't capable of loving someone over a long period of time. And not because I'd get shocked when I learned they weren't a virgin or whatever, it's more like when the honeymoon phase was over I realized I didn't care or find them interesting.
I began to think I was better off alone and just hook up when convenient. Then I met a girl, it sounds gay and unrealistic, but it was different with her. We had an actual connection, I wanted to talk with her more than I wanted to sleep with her, I wanted to understand her thoughts. But she was a foreigner and had to go home eventually, we were young and there was just no path for us to be together at the time. We separated, I dated again and got in a relationship for 4 years, but the entire time I really just thought of the previous girl, every day. We'd contact every few months but then we went no contact for 2 years.
I stayed in that relationship cause I didn't know what else to do, but I hated it. Eventually the talk of marriage and family came up and it would make me sick, I knew I had to end it and I did. But I never stopped thinking about the previous girl, so I actually emailed her earlier this year, we reconnected and she just happened to be in the US for a vacation so I went to visit her. It was exactly like how it was before, she went back to her home but we're talking again. At this point in my life, having been able to start a career and have stability, I really just want to do anything to be with her because I know what it was like with her after our honeymoon phase ended and I know that she's the only one I've been able to continually want to be with after that phase.

An old journal entry.

I woke up at 0530 to the sound of my alarm after a deep sleep with vivid dreams. I’ve had two dreams now of C--. Abstaining from weed for the past two weeks has made my sleep much more restful. I was drooling, and when I went to the bathroom to clean my mouth-guard I noticed that a deep line from my pillow was engraved down the left side of my face, running across my eye like a dueling scar. I filled my mouth-guard container with hot water and dropped in a dissolvable denture cleaning tablet with the mouthguard. I doubt it does a great job of cleaning it, but I don’t really give a fuck. Brushed teeth, put lotion on dry face and arms. My eyes remain chronically bloodshot. I think I ruined them with over-the-counter red-eye-relief drops. They’ve been red for over a year now. The doctor diagnosed me with ocular rosacea; it’s uncurable. The best I can do is heat up a bean-bag for thirty seconds in the microwave and plop it on my eyes for a few minutes to get some juices flowing; it doesn’t help much. It’s hard to make eye-contact when you can see people looking at your eyes.
I didn’t feel like making coffee so I drank pre-workout. at 0630 there is still a line running down my face from my pillow. Why is this taking so long to go away? Maybe I should start eating food with more collagen.
Black boots, black jeans, grey shirt, black hoodie. Work-phone, ID-card, transparent backpack containing: laptop, laptop power-cord, cellphone power-cord, ethernet-cord, wireless mouse, allen wrenches, fab-approved notebook, black pen, wireless earbuds.
I took the stairwell down the four floors to the parking garage. The Mexican janitor was, as usual, breaking down cardboard boxes at the dumpster. We exchanged greetings. These fucking assholes refuse to breakdown the boxes from their endless deliveries. There are signs on every floor, at every trash-shoot, that ask people to flatten out the cardboard and carry it down to the recycling dumpster, but every morning I see him with bins full of unflattened boxes, diligently preforming his menial and thankless work.
I live five minutes from the factory. My car doesn’t even have time to warm up by the time I pull into the parking garage. I crossed the bridge, grabbed a coffee, and went to the pass-down room for the morning meeting. J--, who just returned from an assignment in France, where he was working on some old tool that nobody else on the planet has his expertise on, brought donuts. He brings donuts every ‘Friday,’ I haven’t figured out why exactly yet, psychologically speaking. I didn’t eat any; I had been fasting for the past two days and somehow wasn’t hungry. Maybe abstaining from weed was suppressing my appetite. I had also been trying to see what it felt like to starve. I had been meaning to start writing a story about a factory-worker who starves himself to death, and wanted the raw experience.

I don't think how I will survive in Germany. Especially in Berlin. It's such a degenerate city. Last time I was in Germany I was in the south and even there I couldn't find my people.

I tried hanging out with the Christians, but since I lost my faith, I no longer feel comfortable with them. I feel, religious people in the north of Europe are especially weird, because religion there is more personal and spiritual, and less philosophical and political. And those are the things I mostly hate about religion. The whole supernatural shit.

With the Arabs and Muslims I get along fine, especially when it comes to political issues. They are really based. But I'm neither Arab nor Muslim and I cannot relate to their culture. And every time they sneer at me eating pork, I want to slap their stupid ass faces. Ironically, I also get along well with Israelis, but probably wouldn't if they ever brought up political issues.

The normies are mostly degenerates. Techno music, climbing gyms (they call it bouldering), stoic women who are nonchalant sluts, traveling, smoking weed and listening to rap. That's my impression of them. The men all have these weird ass copy-cat haircuts that look ridiculous.

Then, there's other subcultures that are even more repulsive, like many flavours of nazis and neonazis, the old money, the careerists and such.

IDK, I think I am simultaneously too autistic and unwavering to fit in with any group of people.

I explain, from earlier, that the reality of these "hitmen" is a very sad thing, that they are often paid very small amounts of money and hooked on junk. He thinks it is like the tv and in the movies, where they glamorize the violence and the gangs.

Men are paid as little as 100 or 20 USD to kill each time, sometimes with drugs. Coca-Cola had similarly hired people at these prices to kill labor leaders at bottling plants in South America. Many working people in poorer parts of the country survive on 300 or 400 bucks a month,

We do road work, I work on buildings in the colder months. Just construction work in the trades. Honest work, hard work, we make about 100 USD from a full day of work, maybe 60 USD at the least. Some people I know in the trades work only three days a week, lot of them live out in the sticks. Used to make less, wages were lower in town, about federal minimum. I have met migrant workers that make 3 bucks an hour or 30 USD per day.

The Sicarios in Latin America are named after Jewish assassins with daggers, that took out Roman officers during the Roman occupation of Judea. They were part of the Jewish armed resistance against the Roman occupation in the ancient time of Christ. Much our time, there was a military occupation of the Holy Land and a resistance against it.

Even in the poorest parts of Mexico, the cartel Sicarios are paid more than the Afghan Taliban fighters who had received the equivalent of 10 USD per day to fight, and only for the fighting soldiers on days they were fighting. Many in Afghanistan live on less than a dollar per day, even government workers less than 100 USD per month.

In Sierra Leone, there is diamond mining and a severe problem with prostitution, and thus disease and human trafficking. Women are kidnapped, trafficked, forced into prostitution, it is modern slavery. Someone will pay 10 or 20 USD for a prostitute, and of course criminal gangs make money on this. It is a great injustice.

There is so much evil and greed in this world, corruption and lies, violence and injustice.

Hunger, disease, everywhere someone making a dollar on the pain and desperation.

They were also called the "zealots" from the Second Temple Period, a term that comes from Hebrew. They were a group of rebels that had escaped Jerusalem and gathered at a mountain called Masada. The site has mosaics, cisterns, a large mountain settlement naturally defensible on all sides.

The mountain came under attack during the Siege of Masada in the First Jewish-Roman War of the time of Christ. It is now a holy site in Judaism, at this mountain called Masada, where it is believed that around 960 Jewish zealots "fell on their sword" or claimed their own lives on the mountain rather than be captured by the Romans.

Just because you are born in Bethlehem, Haifa, Gaza does not mean you deserve to be shot or struck by a rocket.

Jewish, Muslim, Christian, the little ones are suffering at the hands of genocide and violence, oppression of the poor.

It is hard to think of anything else, the zionists are committing a genocide against our people in Jesus Christ.

They are killing men, women, and children. It is wrong to be trading innocent life for innocent life.

What can you do? It makes you feel so helpless, just trying to survive, seeing the slaughter.

To take refuge in prayer, in honest labor, in deeds of lovingkindness, to call on the Lord.

Am a poor man, will live and die a poor man, just seek to do what is right by the Lord.

Am not a man of wealth, am not a mean of influence, all we can offer is our lives.

I'm actually willing to hear this argument out, but I'll begin by admitting I regard AHWoSG as the first entry in LiveJournal and an account of Gen X suburbia which inspires nothing but yawning. To me, comparing Dave Eggers and one of the titans of Russian literature is a deliberate provocation or a very unfunny joke.

Living itself is the sole purpose and meaning of life. And among all human endeavors, there is no greater act of honoring and exploring this purpose than the relationships we can have with others.

By appreciating the presence of those around us, and in turn bringing them joy through our own existence, we imbue life with profound significance - both for ourselves and for those close to us. To reject the love of our fellow human beings is to reject our own humanity. And the absence of this essential human connection leads to nothing, but an emptiness and delusion.

'discussion on talks of talks about buzz'
this is the gist of my comment, hearsay

----------------------------

e.g. Familiar service had said 'we refer to book.' Which I can hear now. 'The talk about buzz,' is that speech referring to copies of evidence, inspectable under scrutiny, in observatory, as a statistical phenomena. Can be inherited as a group member, for all intents and purposes, fungible via direct and decomposable pository phenom, as a folio negligible under fair use through and of itself.

This is our map directory:

Server: Binding Oath -> Group -> Insular
hence,
'That we is must do, become, follow.'

----------------------------
such that, e.g.

Greyhound bus ticket, is vouchured now, bought and fungible as it, ticket, were, now refunded to obtain 'fungible vouchure,' not instead 'bus ticket,' the other phenomena we do not have access to, because it's not on our property nor do we own it.

----------------------------

So we refer the discussion to now take place, where is dark world, underworld? That we are humans indirects to divisions by zero as box-gift-fruit phenomena, unto others with our tautological inherited classroom useless knowledge and falsehoods, which is a type of directory at the hands grabbing, ready for exploit. Things about us, that others can say through facts of interest, 'fungi,' a legal buzz analytical. Hence, weyour're are property in this manner. And yet, that OP's monetary value has incompetence under the schoolboard districts legal implication, 'I want what she has,' an again, 'what are they teaching kids these days:' via sociological artifacts. Or hence, and I must qualify debate, that there is someone in the discussion pool of volatile adjurement's I witnesses they have legal knowledge.

Physically, a sign classified pool with, let's say, positive direction cannot be analytically negative, nor can all of such physical phenomena. With reference and relation it becomes unitized. The unit monetary, propriety, and physical is incapable of dimension without temporal phenomena under total of analysis, that things are assigned time attached values for keepsakes. That these keepsakes are default, equilibrious, composite, enacted onto lawful motions.

And yet, here we are, to review means of insignia, along signature routes, under a guise of reality, because the thing is antimonious, corporeally ambivalent, antipathy in, malignant capitally on all potentiated firms, states, and without blur, as in unblurred quantified effects and elements in order to incur discussion on subatomic particle which is joule qualified, not as a multilet, as also in the spoons momenta as a begged questionhood of directories directions derivable to forkable submotions with a plot to imaginary vectors infiltrated down robust of further qualifying formulaic contents through formulas derived from a physical copy, as if there were an end to the sigmoid. And yet also, the joule shines, approximately in clarity. Because we refer to objectionable, not through ordinary means, but through extraordinary means, as a material apparatus to acquire data facilitated by imperical norms and residues through instrumented ingestion, wishing upon ages ironically hoping against erasure in washful thinking is capable of being expressed, because we have independents of which we can only compensate the plug for variability assignment over dependency. Such is the unwellness with others. Which we can fortify by our our review, or reported revenues.

I want to write an absolutely insufferable story about a struggling fool who demonstrates, time and time again, to both the audience and other characters in the story, that anything the character does is merely "below average" at best. Just a series of intricate failures that culminate into the protagonist in question realizing that the only potential for outstanding anything he may produce, be it personal or an influence on the world, is when he's miserable and furious. Everything he thinks or thinks he thinks, feels or thinks he feels, every iota of an idea resembling perception or "figuring it out" fails to light that same spark as when he's just absolutely angry and destructive. A being of mediocrity trapped in a world quite comfortable with his pitiful station and the only way he benefits it any more than he already does (which is to say very little) is when he begins to melt down. He's doomed to either despondence or fury and nothing else can ever save him. I'll probably forget this idea in five minutes though.

I miss her, and she doesn't miss me. That's why I will write her in a book, inside of an inconspicuous character, or perhaps even in every female character I will ever write. She will never know of it, nor anyone else. Only I will remember. Something is funny with that approach, but I don't know what.

I don't think this is original at all, but I think people will like it. I think they will find it funny to read about that girl who once cried and wiped her bungee doodoo snot on my sleeve and pretended nothing happened. That same idiot who stole my pizza slice and pretended it was the dog even though I got that on film. The crazy, inconsiderate girl who would take me away in the middle of a marriage reception to play bowling. The girl who would paint my face the morning before a job interview.

First Mother’s Day without my grandmother, 23rd without my mother. Maybe I should have used my money to put in gas to visit their graves in the town where my grandmother lived and my mother grew up in, a small but charming town, but I did not. I went and got myself fried chicken. After that, I walked to the coffee shop where I continued Anna Karenina. I’m still pretty early in the story, about 300 pages in, but the passage describing Anna’s love for her son, really affected me. With the low tempo passionately sad music resonating in the Starbuck’s, now suddenly busy, I couldn’t help but nearly let some tears go beyond the point of their watering and fogging of my vision. I think there was also some passage describing how a person’s vision or mind gets hazy under these points of stress and everything just felt so lined up. It made me pause and think of, well of course my mom, but also of Tolstoy, of God, of the prospect that while free will may exist in some way, and there is of course inherent, indeterminateness in the universe, there’s still a writer behind it’s story. I know people say that it’s simply us finding a pattern in inherent randomness, but I choose to have faith there is something beyond the metaphysical to consciousness and that there is a God. I thought of Tolstoy and how he channeled God, then I thought of Dostoevsky and how he channeled God and perhaps how his life might have been ended because The Brother’s Karamazov was enough and there didn’t need be a second one. A slightly morbid thought, but I do think artists can receive their songs and arts and ideas by some consciousness of a higher realm be it God or the Muses or however one characterizes the mysterious force that propels these incredible ideas from the unconscious into the conscious.
I do feel slightly guilty that I did not use the little money I had to go see their grave and place the flowers, which I got from my work, on their graves, but I don’t think I forgot to think about them. I prayed today, held the card my Mother wrote to me before she suddenly died, and the beautiful blue card from The Passionists I got at my grandmother’s funeral. I held the same cave print indented broken necklace I had gotten at grirf camp all those years ago. When I say I can picture it in my mind I believe the memories are genuine but I know the feel of the cold silver metal is. I might even still put my money on both, who knows. I don’t exactly believe in heaven but I do believe in reincarnation and I do believe I will see them again.
It’s a little funny while my Grandmother’s death does make me sad I do finally feel like I accept she’s gone. I always knew she was gone but the pain has softened now and turned more bittersweet to the taste.
I do hope I meet the girl who will be the mother of my future children soon, if I am so to have them. I hope so. I’m 29. I do really like this girl at work. I get a feeling she likes me too.

It is an invariable fact that stream of consciousness results in 50% nonsense and 50% disjointed bullshit - 100% gay, yet I cannot be arsed to parse through a semi-coherent train of indelible thoughts, so I'll simply forgo the backspace and see this train through to the end.
As an aside, I'm suffering from a tremendous thesauric block and 90% of this board is so shit that I fell back to this thread in hope it still has people who actually read in it - what's a word to describe being so tired of being worn down by society that you simply choose to keep along and give up on any sort of expectation for improvement, both personally, and for that of society? "It is what it is" so-to-speak

"Fatalistic" implies one believes it was all inevitable, and "complacent" implies an enjoyment or satisfaction
The closest thing I could think of was 'complicit', but I almost feel that it barely fits and requires explanation

I've always wanted to run away. I don't know why. Maybe it's all a cope, 'your life is shit there, but it's okay anon that's temporary!

There's always a new stage, some hurdle that needs to be overcome before I get to feel like I deserve complete happiness. But I'm never having it. The path I've been treading seems like a dead end. It's all so tiring, really. Do that first, then that, then this. Then you'll be exceptional. Then you'll be able to do whatever you want. Then you'll be truly free.

But I'm not doing any of this for me, am I? Everything I've been doing from the day of my birth has been a complex, elaborate mating dance. Isn't that what this is all about? Passing down genes, making sure my kids survive long enough to pass down their own genes? I don't give a shit about money or anything really, the only reason I'm chasing all of that is because I want to have kids. What if I don't? Wouldn't it be easier?

I'm not sure I like the description of love in the Phaedrus. I've never once felt like someone I loved was beautiful in that way, where I would look at her and see the forms. Instead, I just want to touch her and have her.
Perhaps this desire, when pursued, would deny her agency. Certainly, it might. I can be a very jealous person. Nonetheless the desire feels like it's towards a teleological end. Maybe Plato can work his way in there. It's actually very similar to Aristophanes' speech in the Symposium.
Moby-Dick is a good book, but when I read it I can't help but think that I'm a person who reads Moby-Dick and enjoys it. This realization makes me feel self-conscious and prideful, ruining the experience. It's worst during the cetology chapters, because that's what people pride themselves most for liking.

I don't know how she does it but my mum will always find something to complain about. You could get the greatest chef in the world to make her a lobster dish and she'd go "Eh, I don't really like the taste of the sauce" or you could buy her her dream house and she'd go "I don't like the colour of the walls". It's seriously a skill that I've never seen anyone else possess.

Thanks, guys.

>Congratulations.

Thank you.

>Were you the anon who wrote his thesis on Ulysses?

Yep, that's me.

>If so I’m curious what you wrote about in a sentence or two

My contention is that the episode in Ulysses known as "Eumaeus" is in fact the most pivotal chapter in the plot of the book, despite the neglect it has received from a lot of critics. Because I believe "Eumaeus" is the chapter in which Leopold Bloom achieves a commanding victory. He achives this victory in two ways:

1. He recovers his status as a fully functional man, in the tripartite sense that one can be a man: man as husband, man as father, and man as lover.

2. He achieves a meta-textual victory over the malevolent forces of Ulysses itself that have tried to subsume him and bury him throughout the course of the novel's length. In the process, Bloom thrusts the book's malevolent forces down from their control of Ulysses, and he himself assumes control of the book in its last chapters. "Eumaeus" is written by Bloom himself. "Ithaca" is, too.

The second point is the one that seems to have gotten people particularly excited, my secondary reader went into my thesis not completely convinced by the second point but I won him over and he was on board by the end of reading my thesis.

Interesting. This is probably an unpopular opinion but I feel books like Ulysses and writers like Shakespeare have developed cottage industries of criticism related to them that is more interesting than the actual body of work. I love reading about Ulysses and Shakespeare more than I like reading Ulysses or Shakespeare

I'm hurting bad bros. I want help but I cannot be helped. If I were not irreparably fucked, I might try. Instead, I must die.

I always wanted to feel innocent or normal. Even as a teenage boy I remember my ass getting raped and wishing my first sexual experience would be consensual sex with hand-holding in the missionary position. I wish i were never born at all.

Time has run out for me. I am a filthy old man with no future and no right to complain. I haven't written a line of poetry in months because it's comical- disgusting really- for such a vile person to think himself worthy of issuing forth beuaty (though truth be told I could never write a lone of beauty in all my life). It's a jarring thing to see a vile, disgusting being weeping, hoping his words would convey his soul. I deserved to die, or maybe I deserved to live and suffer. Why? I don't know. I've never really hurt anyone. I'm just not human. Can't explain. Goosnight.

Do you think the fact Koreans are incredibly racist is related being genetically incapable of producing body odor? I get the xenophobia probably comes from being stuck between China and Japan but imagine the superiority you'd automatically feel if everyone outside your country stank.

If I could hold someone's hand just once, and feel like they wanted mine as badly as I theirs, and that I'd never know or speak to them again for as long as I lived, then I might be satisfied for the rest of my life. The memory of warmth would warm me for the rest of my life.

I haven't read the Wake yet, I've read everything else Joyce wrote. Actually, that's not right, I haven't read Chamber Music. But I've read Portrait, Dubliners, and Ulysses.

Do you want me to put the thesis in a pastebin? It's been published to ProPublica but I can't just link it to people at random.

Hegel's metaphysics is just the rehashing of Aquinas for Enlightenment dweebs.

What do I mean by this? For goodness sake, his Logic is organized under the headers of being and essence, with the section of the concept working out how our minds become one with the subject of thought, destroying the Kantian distinction of noumena phenomena, as well as showing that by the fact we can conceive of God at all, means that He necessarily must be. For contents of thought must have some existence, otherwise they cannot be thought of.

Hegel's notes on becoming and relation is literally just the Thomistic notion of the relative Trinity.

Hegel is brilliant, obviously, the man took the Aristotelian philosophy and independently arrived at the Thomistic metaphysics. But my goodness he writes terribly. All that German mysticism and such.
