I bet she raped young boys
>Now I am a teacher and I get my pleasure from administering the punishment. The boys I teach are between ten and fourteen. I regularly take one to my room where I administer the whip and cane, having ordered him to strip naked. I enjoy punishing him but I enjoy it most when I see him getting an erection. I wear provocative clothes and I enjoy embarrassing him when he gets the erection.
>I have never punished a girl, mainly because I never had the opportunity to do so. But I often daydream about it. I imagine her being...

Are you making any money?
Damn! Where are they getting published? Any links to previously published poems?
>>8164940
Through the writing? Unfortunately, not from the 2 poems thus far, just copy of printed material.
There were a few sent out to actual paying gigs.
Hoewbeit, in general, yes, one must strut that ass to keep up with the world.

There is little or no correlation
This novel written by him i'd say is one of the best ones that Crowley has in he name *SPOILER* it talks about from the time he came back from the war and his addiction to drugs started to come about simply because he was escaping reality.

back to /x/ familam. Crowley was a dopehead, and only impresses on sheeplets and other dopeheads.

Now this is just my opinion, if you read the novel it states that he was going though alot of depression in he life sometimes depression will make you do that.
Which one do I start with and why?
Bonus question: Which one's your favorite?

Neither. Modern political debates a pseudo-problem shit.

Whats your favorite written action scene? What do you think is the best example of an interesting one? I'm talking about shootouts, fights or whatever comes to your mind. Examples would be greatly appreciated.
>>8164798
My memory isn't very good so my favorite is usually something I just read.
Right now the dual scene in a hero of our time is my favorite action scene. My heart was pounding the whole time (could be partially due to the coffee).

The judge making gunpowder out of brimstone and piss was pretty good
>>8164821
By dual I mean duel
Are narratives of masculinity defined by who is fucking the ladies?
>>8164706
Fassbinder is cringe-core.
>>8164712
This isn't about that it's just an image I had that seemed fitting.
Masculinity is eternal, unchanging and infinite. Whether you can tap into it or not is on you.
Looking to discussing this with someone because it kind of rocked me.
What are your thoughts on it?
>>8164687
it's on my to-read list
sorry for unhelpful post, have a bump
>>8164690
Thanks man. What's keeping you from reading it? I recently bought it off Amazon and I kind of plunged into it. If you are afraid you'll need to know Wittgenstein before you read it, I didn't find it hard to follow through and I haven't read a page of W's in my life. I'm certain some stuff went over my head, but it was still really enjoyable.
Definitely check it out.
I read this book once.
Didn't finish it.
Brazillia is the capital of Brazil.
Wardine be cry.
I didn't really understand it desu.
Say you accept the sisyphean nature of existence, like Camus describes it. Is there an opposite reaction to the "happy Sisyphus"?
I mean, it sounds absurd (kek) to happily stroll along when the Absurd strikes you with shit just like if it stroked you with the good things. Maybe I understood it wrong but I read it as accepting the bullshit and not fighting back. Help a friend to try and understand better existentialism, I've been struggling with it for a while.

Suicide.
>>8164643
Accept it or kill yourself, is it that extreme?
>>8164640
>i read it as accepting the bullshit and not fighting back
it's more acknowledging the inherent absurdity of the world and, more importantly, recognizing that it is immeasurably larger than you. "Fighting back" is a foolish response against an infinite system that doesn't acknowledge you.
looking for something that'll blow my hair back

As I lay dying was pretty baller for the 50 pages I read while shitfaced on rye. I read the rest sober though.

I generally find reading while drunk impossible. Not a fan of drinking alone either.

He claims that even the degenerates can see the need to have a traditionalist society even if they struggle to fit in it.
