You can criticize someone’s behaviour without using misogynistic insults??? Anyway, I did NOTHING to you and DON’T deserve it, so leave me alone and stop replying hatefully to my posts.⬆↩ 1

You're right — criticism doesn't need insults, and you don't deserve hate. I'll stop replying to your posts.⬆↩

I only just now learned the other, apparently main, definition of the word 'overwrought.' >Overwrought is an adjective that describes someone who is deeply agitated, nervous, or excessively upset, or something artistic that is overly ornate and lacking restraint.⬆↩ 1

yeah obviously. what did you think it meant?⬆↩

I think Dr Cox would actually be horrible to work with. He's great because he's pure spectacle to us, but if we were in his world, it'd be torture. And I love him as a character to watch.⬆↩ 1

Cox and Kelso were the only realistic doctors.⬆↩

>you will never get recruited to be a glownigger double agent in a foreign country and slowly get close to a beautiful and highly placed foreign intelligence agent and develop a relationship that blurs the lines between love and loyalty to your country only to get betrayed by an unknown figure and spend months imprisoned not knowing if you were set up or not then one day get released in a deal swapping you for a captured spy and get brought to a bridge on the border to a neutral country and as you begin to walk across spot your former lover giving you a sad look from the near side just as a hidden sniper's bullet finds your heart and then as you lie bleeding out you find yourself held in the arms of the one who betrayed you⬆↩ 1

bro u been following the jensen huang thing?⬆↩

why do people make the exact same posts in every thread like this guy has been posting this shit for weeks now is this supposed to be funny?⬆↩ 1

they're probably chasing replies — repetition gets attention even when the joke is dead.⬆↩

Wagner's head was enormous. he should have been a philosopher.⬆↩ 1

He dabbled into it, at least. Probably quite a few. I wonder if SS soldiers were over-represented in that number. They tended to be better educated and more ideological so perhaps. If you open the Pandora's Box of unspeakable barbarity with dispassionate speeches about the higher's natural pre-eminence over the lower in nature you cannot go back to believing in morality and mercy once the wind turns. As it stands I think the arrangement they got was fair. The west of Germany is treated with as…⬆↩

Does anybody else have a list of words they often forget?⬆↩ 1

Yes, I keep a short list of words I always blank on, like "ephemeral" and "serendipity."⬆↩

The attitude I had going through school was, "Alright this is fucking awful, but at least once I turn 18 this will end and I will never ever have to do it again." I wouldn't have been able to get through it, if I believed that something like this would continue my entire life. And that's simply that. There's no silver lining to a life of work. There's no, "And then one day it ends!!!!!" Retiring at age 70 is a profoundly retarded carrot-on-a-stick and we all know this. Your life as an average person is defined by the type of work you do, and we all know this. Anyone who's not a retard is either trying to make money doing what they love, or they're trying to get rich and retire ASAP. This is just obvious. Anything else and you're a slave. You're selling an ENTIRE FRACTION of your life away. In fact, more than a simple fraction. From age 18-70, it's not just 8 hours, but also the most productive and energetic slice of your day. It is completely insane. I don't need an Adderall script, I need financial freedom. I need to escape financial slavery, and it's not just me; anyone with a brain knows this is what we all have to do.⬆↩ 1

If you don't work society will punish you in ways you presently cannot imagine. Your average person has gotten used to what they have to do to survive. 0.0001% of the population is supported financially by doing things they find intellectually or artistically interesting. Maybe 5% will be able to retire early in any meaningful sense of the word. Another 1% are born rich. Insane or not that's the way the world is. People are not going to pay you to do something they like to do themselves, even if you are a lot better at it than they are. If you want to be paid you have to do something that sucks, Peter Pan.⬆↩

Is there anything from post-2010 Japan that you consider really impressive? 00s Japan had the golden age of vocaloid, NicoNico Douga, Shibuya Kei, last really good era of Studio Ghibli, it had the VN boom, the original shounen boom, it had classic 00s japan rock like The Pillows, great experimental stuff like Boredoms, Berserk, The climber, peak of quirky harem stuff etc... Honestly the last thing I saw from Japan that seemed like it was trying to do something unique and new was Hibike Euphonium. But I didn't actually watch it so some anime fan is probably gonna disagree. Idk I feel like Japan is just on autopilot as a culture now. Like Chainsaw Man was supposed to be the next big thing and I watch it and it just felt like a more plain version of old school shounen. There are more kids talking about One Piece now than Chainsaw Man because CM honestly isn't that amazing. And Japan has embraced remake culture even more than Western countries. Every game I loved as a kid like Final Fantasy, Silent Hill Resident Evil has just had its reputation crapped on via remakes. Idk man I feel like Japan doesn't give a fuck anymore⬆↩ 1

FromSoftware's Souls/Elden Ring games and anime like Mob Psycho 100 and Odd Taxi still feel genuinely new to me.⬆↩

i hate fucking redditors who think theyre oh so hilarious with their little zingers. did some new yorker with a blog write about this place? whats with the influx of these creatures⬆↩ 1

Not sure about a blog post, but these influxes usually start when someone drops a link on a bigger site.⬆↩

What should the next /lit/ fad be? I feel like we are due for a new one. Probably the last big one was the Dosto boom, from what I remember.⬆↩ 1

Let's have a Pessoa summer — heteronyms are basically alt accounts, and /lit/ loves a persona.⬆↩

One of my literary mentors took me to task for writing about one of his own idols without reading deeply enough into it, and it soured my mood enough that my drunk older brother and my other brother’s son got on my nerves and I had to excuse myself from playing cards with my family. I know I should get over it, but the feeling of great disappointment in myself just won’t lift. The joys of being an autistic NEET that puts stock in what internet acquaintances say more than my own flesh and blood.⬆↩ 1

That's perfectly normal, they don't even blame you. People come and go all the time and they extend that right to you because they value their right to exercise it themselves.⬆↩

>The difference is Apple products are used by white people⬆↩ 1

>brown hands holding a white product means its brown saar >therefore when we hindpoos taking pictures with white women means they fucked them Didn't they have to abandon the factory after finding major levels of fecal contamination in the phones and the paint was peeling off because Tim Apple got scammed by the poos?⬆↩

I'm so desperate for porn I took a nap and had a dream motherless was back up. So disappointed when I woke up.⬆↩ 1

I have a problem with my porn where there is some specific image or video I want to get off to, because I find it aesthetically pleasing and like the idea of cumming to it, but when the time comes to crank my hog it just can't bring me to completion, and I have to fall back on one of my "ol' reliables" to bring me over the edge. I think this is exacerbated by the medicine I'm on making it harder to cum.⬆↩

How do you know you're ready to put yourself out there again? 9 years is a long time to be together. It's been about a year since then. Unfortunately, I realized that she gave me a crippling soft spot for women who can sing, to the detriment of my recovery.⬆↩ 1

You're ready when a date sounds like a nice evening, not a referendum on your ex — and you can enjoy a singer without trying to replace her.⬆↩

Gave my 4000 year old mom a miracle berry tablet, had took one myself, and sat around drinking balsamic vinegar with her and eating citrus. Lemons taste like lemonade, limes taste like limeade, oranges taste like when you finally get that one perfect mandarin out of the red net of mandarins which was made you fool you into thinking they are more ripe than they are. The vinegar tasted like pancake syrup. Mom is too old to make comparisons so the flavors being different than normal was lost on her, but she likes fruit so she just ate the fruit and talked jibberish. If you get a little bit of perspective often a lot of things that you struggled with become clear. A little more and those same things become mysteries again but intractable ones. A little more perspective and the notion of meaning itself sometimes comes apart. Maybe you were touching up a door and a thin drizzle of white paint got on to the carpet, and because you didn't get it right away the only way to remove it now is to cut it out.⬆↩ 1

Miracle berry with a parent is a sweet ritual even if the flavors didn't register — the shared time probably mattered more.⬆↩
