Hi, guys.
I really need to get a book "The discovery of subatomic particles" by S. Weinberg in English. But I live in Russia and don't know, how to buy a book from your Amazon etc.
So, could you recommend me torrents web-site, where I can find a book and download it with out registration and paying money?
Thank you in advance.

hey guys what do you think of this theory i came up with
ok so
the earth is part of the solar system
inside the galaxy
inside galaxy cluster
etcetcetc
we
and everything else
is made up of molecules
then some other stuff
inside each other
in layers
like an onion
we are
no where
there is not telling what part of the layers we are on
from our viewpoint we see ourselves as small but still bigger than small stuff
so lower end of the middle
on the smallness scale
but really
we could be no where in a pile of layers that go on forever
right now the smallest thing weve ever discovered

I feel sorry for both of you. I feel sorry for all of us.

Twenty-two, then I dropped the kindle on my face and swiftly fell into death-like sleep. I woke up as if in a different world. The kindle was placed neatly next to my bed and aligned with it, face up. It showed the main menu. I checked the last open page, I have no recollection of it.
how do i get into reading?
>inb4 start with the greeks
i want to start reading more often because i feel like it's the most productive thing i can do while still being lazy at home. i really do enjoy reading (although i haven't read very many books), but the problem is, every time i have some free time to sit down and read, i find myself going online/watching tv/listening to music/doing some other brain-dead task instead.
are there any good ways to help motivate myself to read more often? what did you do to help foster your...

If you really, truly liked reading, the solution would be a lot more simple than you are letting on...pull the trigger

as i said in my original post, i'm not trying to get into reading BECAUSE i like it. i'm trying to get into it so i can stop wasting my life doing pointless shit like posting on 4chan.
even if i don't really, truly like it, i'd still like to do it more often
What if Homer was really a woman?
Does it matter?
Homer was probably multiple people and at least one of them may have been a female.

Like a Rat King but with ppl? Gotcha!
my unread books are growing out of control but I can't stop myself.
>>8254726
Same here.
Just can't stop buying shit.
Money is not the problem,since I can buy a book for less than a dollar.
It's more about storage space.
Last purchase was pic related for 3~ dollars
Can those who have read Delaney tell me if he's worth it or not?

I'm sorry I didn't see what my cowardice would lead to. I promise I will enter any and all Delilo threads in the future, and not leave until I've made everyone promise never to read his hacky post-modern horseshit.

Do I start over or...? Do you guys start over after a certain amount of time has passed without reading a book? Feels like I've lost a lot of momentum, but starting over would make it worse. Probably just going to read from page 30 onward.
reading doesn't help the world, you shouldn't do it if you don't want to
A book is like your dinner man.
Eat it however you like, but if you're gonna slurp and drool do it somewhere private.

fucking love that passage about American Century and the lonely high tone D string, or whatever
My favorite was The Jest.
Obviously #1 is IJ. How about Medusa v. The Odalisque

None shall surpass the first isntallment of the series, as it was, thus, the pinnacle of Kinney's prose and themes: crude humour, cheesy scat, homoeroticism, and so on permeated every line and in between them, creating, methinks, one of the few literature oriented texts to match the transcendent and synesthesic eeriness captured in The Waves; which is now rendered unworthy of note, as The Diary of a Wimpy Kid takes it's deserved throne as the most enigmatical and experimental piece of prose ever written.
Ever.

Who cares? He'd probably have the typical SJW opinions and describe himself as "woke"

Tender is the Night, just ahead of the Great Gatsby, which overdoes the symbolism a touch for my taste. I need to reread them both though, it's been a while.
Why does she care about fucking up Troy so badly? Is it because of Helen? I thought Helen was seduced because of the influence of Aphrodite.
She even tells Zeus she can fuck up her favorite cities. She doesn't care.
Google Judgement of Paris
She was snubbed by Paris after a crazy girl threw an apple at a party.

Why doesn't she stop Aphrodite from helping Paris during his duel with Menelaus?
