From Growth of the Soil by Hamsun, Lyngstad translation.
"He had a powerful chest, well fleshed out, no one could be less astral; he ate his food like a man and it did him good, hence he was seldom thrown off balance."
What the fuck does "astral" mean in this context? I know it refers to the stars and shit. Does it mean that he never has his head in the clouds? Why would it be surrounded by this talk about Isak's physical state, rather than his simple mind?

Semen demon? Source?
stoya over acts so much
its fucking irritating
>>7748175
I'd rather have over acting than a fucking flat banal anal session.
>>7748187
wow your mom says the same thing
>>7748172
Not sure what scene this might be from. I'm not really a fan of Stoya myself but I'm sure someone else might be able to source this.
>>7748175
nah, stoya's pretty close to natural in comparison to the average pornstar
>>7748187
have you had a banal anal session? it's fucking awesome.
>>7748240
Not when she has "No discernible talent"
So no one here's read Growth of the Soil then?
>>7748330
An astral body is a beautiful body - it's an idiom in German, so I would assume it exists in Norwegian too. Maybe the translator just went with it.
>>7748336
Did anyone find what scene this is from yet?
>>7748168
Less astral=more corporeal. If he has a powerful chest I guess it implies that there is a muscular physicality to him, rather than a dainty fragility.
I love the low t betas that care more about the content issues of the thread as opposed to finding out which Stoya video this is from.
>>7748486
This is /lit/, "for the discussion of literature". If you want to know more about porn stars, go to /r/.
>>7748486
Stoya isn't overweight enough to be considered high-t.
>>7748499
you just had to ruin this beautiful stoya thread
so someone find the scene already and this thread can die in peace.
>>7748256
this made my mornign
>>7748732
Pretty sure the both of them, or at least the second poster, wanted to know what specific video of Stoya's this gif is from.
Norwegian here
>>7748336 and
>>7748430
are right, but from my reading it seems he is also referencing the sentence before, where it says Isak only understands the most straightforward, work, lawful and natural actions. He is simple in mind and concerns himself with working hard, and has the body that goes along with it, contrary to the concerns and body of some astral minded scholar or bureaucrat.
>>7748739
this.

SINCE I LEFT YOU

Why is porn "bad"? I read many times masturbation to non-explicit pics is healthy, but porn will make you depressed pussy, why whats te difference? I watch povs mostly
>>7748336
>no one could be /less/ astral
well im certain of nothing other than your incorrectness.
my conjecture as to the meaning is something to do with being rooted in the corporeal. strong thick body, concerned with things down here on earth, not up there. you know. in the astral plane like some fucking noodle armed scholar. proceed with description of him eating and never being thrown off balance.
>>7750674
masturbation is like if you had a secret button you can push that gives you the sensation of being fed, and then instead of eating you push the button instead.
>>7750674
Porn isn't bad, and neither is masturbation.
It's only a probably if you are addicted and are jacking it multiple times daily.
>>7751127
I'd say if you're jacking it more than 3 times EVERY day.
I do 2-3 times a day and more than that about once a week and I'm not addicted
>>7751157
>I'm not addicted
This is what every addict says.
>>7751161
>This is what every addict says.
I agree with you but the thing is I know I'm not addicted
>>7751165
Then why fap at all?
is there any book comfier than this masterpiece?
>>7751169
I dunno, if I really felt like I needed to stop because it's getting in the way of other things, then I'd stop. I see no reason to stop, so I jack it
>>7751157
Take a week without porn, jack off only to your imagination.
If you can't do it you have a problem.
Masturbation is healthy but porn is not.
>>7751157
I'm pretty sure addiction implies that your habits interfere with your other activities. If you can jack off 60 times a day and still work, socialize, etc. then it's fine really
>>7751271
Or if it brings some form of repeated harm to yourself or the people around you.
Pretty sure 60 times a day would bring some discomfort.
>>7751225
healthy in what way? will I live longer? do you have anything to back it up or is it just bro science
>>7751184
I feel the same way. Sometimes I go days without doing it, other times 2-3 a day.
>>7751157
If you're jerking it that much it means you have too much time on yourhandsand that in itself is debilitating. When someone's busy with work or school or exercise and other forms of personal development they don't think about jerking it; they're either too busy, too focused, or too tired. Jerking it is indicitive of isolation, demotivation, idling, and in some cases genuine addiction, all of which are undesirable traits. Healthy in my personal estimate is every other day or so, or 3 days a week.
>>7751374
>Healthy in my personal estimate is every other day or so, or 3 days a week.
kek what are you a catholic priest?
also, only one hand is required for jerking off. And if you have a fleshlight and a stable place to put it you don't need any hands. So, it's very possible to multitask. I should know and trust me I've got everything under control

Actually jogging requires only the legs so I can jack off and finger my prostate while I go on the treadmill.
>>7751395
>He thinks 3 times a week is catholic priest levels of restraint
Mate... take a breather.
>>7751420

Comfier, I don't know. But I think Victoria is Hamsun's masterpiece. I wonder how many faggots that's going to offend since it's short and a love story.
"Astral" here is used to mean ethereal. He is very physical imposing, very PHYSICAL, of the terrestrial, the physical, as opposed to the celestial, the metaphysical.
she's alright.
>>7751713
will read it soon. only other thing by hansum i red is Hunger and it didn't make as anywhere as much impression on me
This thread is a fucking mess.
>>7751374
Everybody is different, some people just have a stronger drive. Who are you to judge what's healthy?
Maybe you just have low testosterone.
>>7753256
emphasis on 'fucking'. Kek
>>7753232
Hunger's not bad, little more meandering than Growth (though it was also one of Hamsun's earliest books, so he was still figuring shit out I think). Victoria is fucking heart breaking though.
>>7753256
It's like two threads with the same URL.

I'd like to get my penis batter into her cuntlete.
>>7751713
Offended faggot reporting in! Hamsun's opus magnum is actually the epilogue of Pan.
>>7751081
No it isn't.

Wonder if Stoya digs Hamsun. Someone tweet here this thread!

No twitter bro. What do I look like? Azealia Banks?

"From the Growth of the SOIL"
Dude, by "less astral" he means that the dude is an earthy fellow, animalistic, contained in his body. A human man, non-transcendent.
>>7751420
treadmills become monotonous. You need to get outside.
>>7751157
I feel shameful for doing it 2-3 times a month
>>7753256
This thread is a WASTE
>tfw you realize there's a character in that book named Brede Olsen...
>>7748175
definitely, she's also a bitch so that doesn't help
only thing she has going for her is the beautiful pale skin, it does things to my dick I can't explain
>>7748187
putting banal and anal beside one another sounds like fucking shit dude if you write you shouldnt do that
>>7751713
Irate gaybird here, "The Wayfarer" is his manga orbits.

Your white pride is showing. Embrace it.

It sounds rather poetic to me.
