The prophet.
Found in his last year's diary that Bukowski wrote on an apple Macintosh. Looked for pics and found this one instead.
Also, iTunes store refuses to sell new edition of some Buk short stories (originally in Ejaculations, erections, ... ordinary madness) titled Fuck Machine http://www.boekblad.nl/apple-weigert-verhalenbundel-bukowski-te-verkopen.229857.lynkx

Does anyone here have any pics comparing ancient, modern, and postmodern thought in literature/philosophy? I saw a couple here a while back and thought they were clever but forgot to save them. I need them for a friend who's trying to write a dialogue comparing the different viewpoints.

i remember one of them being something like ancient: man vs god, modern: man vs society, postmodern: man vs reality

Does "tundra" change every time you read it? Do I have a short term memory problem and made up chapter 8?

It's on my next-reading list, but... is it really worth a read, or is it just schizophrenic copypasta?
>>7709289
Yes it's a borges object manifest.

Well the trick the second time through is to open it to a random page
I am schizophrenic
I want to read Marx. Where do I start, which translation, and what secondary materials should I read?
Read the communist manifesto first and then go with Das Capital
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Capital:_Critique_of_Political_Economy
It depends what you already know really, how well you know the history of mankind, how well you understand economics, what else would you like to learn etc.
tell me more about what you are interested in and why, and what have you read so far
kill yourself for wanting to have anything to do with marx you commie scum

confirmed for not having read it
>Obviously, I couldn't come up with anything to say, but I returned to my hotel deep in thought. It's a fact, I mused to myself, that in societies like ours sex truly represents a second system of differentiation, completely independent of money; and as a system of differentiation it functions just as mercilessly. The effects of these two systems are, furthermore, strictly equivalent. Just like unrestrained economic liberalism, and for similar reasons, sexual liberalism produces phenomena of absolute pauperization. Some men make love every day;...

>No greater mistake could be made than to think the PUAs are modern Casanovas. Casanova was an adventurer and a man of a hundred talents, HENCE his great success with women. PUAs are just a bunch of losers who spent half their lives unable to get laid, and the other half desperately trying to make up for it. Lack of talents and any kind of adventurousness beyond skirt-chasing are REQUIREMENTS to be a PUA. Casanova, meanwhile, while certainly no philosopher, was a true representative of culture. He even rubbed Voltaire's nose in it at one point. PUAs,...

Is it wrong that I want Evola to fuck me in my peasant ass while whispering in my ear about higher realities?

>Americans rename Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone to "Sorcerer's Stone"
Does this mean philosophy class in America is sorcery class?
>>7709124
No it means that American children are less likely to catch the reference to alchemy.
sorcerer is a cool word for chads and philosopher is a boring word for big gay nerds
>>7709166
Sorcerers and philosophers are both pretty gay, warlock, on the other hand, sounds similar to warlord, and doesn't strike the image of faggy fat men in pointy hats as much as wizard does.
What books or lectures would you recommend listening to as I play Dota 2? I have been listening to some of Poe's short stories and find they compliment a match well; any other recommendations?

Half of that is boring drivel, better an audiobook of P&P v2.
what does social media have to offer the intellectual? are we to rely and revert to www and community websites like /lit/, or do things like twitter and current social experiences offer anything beneficial?
Not really, normie sites are filled with normies.

yeah im old so i remember when AOL dumped their userbase on the legit internet (providers often had their own segregated "networks" back in the day, where the usually distinguished "the internet" something seperate to their userbase.
even though i think everyone should embrace the internet, the signal to noise ratio is getting bad. however this time around I think the web is going to die off in a few decades, and things are going to be federated logins on apps. it's sad but I really...
