Seriously, considering they didn't have weights back then, this guy is jacked. Did he build fucking railways in his spare time or something?

I want to add some spiritual significance to a future rifle build I'm working on with the AR 15 platform. Maybe a custom Pistol job. I plan on naming the rifle Asrael after the Hebrew archangel of death and the goatboy from Undertale.
So far I want to write Freidrick Nietszche's quote on monsters written on one side of the receiver. A reminder that when it is brought into service it doesn't have to kill to achieve its goals. To remind the user christian love of thy enemies.

Are there any good books on any blackop stuff that the CIA didor movies?
>>7460758
Some of us on here were/are spooks. You'll find the blackops stuff is pornographic without a context.
Films, The Recruit has some very good and very bad insight into the life. Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy is a fantastic film.
Spies and Revolutionaries by Bill Graham covers it extensively in the context of New Zealand. They have one of the most open and laughable intelligence cultures. At one stage, Soviet, British and American spies would meet on friday nights at 7.30pm in Wellington at a Hotel to...

This book. Interesting, readable, comprehensive.
It turns out that most of the CIA's secret operations were total fuckups, and the agency generally had no idea what it was doing.
>>7460812
That's a great one.
For the Presidents Eyes only is good if you are looking for more of the history of the development of these agencies.
I also enjoyed Operation Mincemeat and Agent Zigzag, but they are definitely written more for entertainment, despite being well researched. And they are both focused on British WWII stuff, not CIA
A guy who's had sex with over a hundred women writes a dirty story for you Forever Alones.
From my Kindle Erotica pot-boiler: Summer School Sluts
I dared to kiss her and I swear he next thing I remember, my balls sac was in her mouh as she stroked my shaft. I threw her on the couch and shucked off her flimsy dress and panties. She got on her hands and knees, her elbows hyperextending in a way that was alien and erotic, her long fingers clenched into the cushions as I slid in, still only semi-hard and I fucked her from behind. She was small and toned. I studied the delicate hairs on the back of her neck, the delicate bones of her spine, her shoulder blades, and the dimples above her ass. I admired her brown skin, I liked...

Actually, I've found that people with no experience at all tend to write better erotica because they don't have bullshit real world stuff to draw from. It's pure fantasy. Pure idealism.

since you live through women, you are a beta.
do not forget to eat pussy, abide by her !
What do we know about Wittgenstein's sexual encounters? Do you think he had good girth?
Probably the type who'd like to sit in the corner of the room and watch.

I would love to see him, once, just once, with his ass gaping open the height and width of a beer can.
Anyone else notice all arguments and debate on here just boil down to pessimistic vs optimistic ideology?
that's a pretty pessimistic ideology you've got there yourself, friend.

i found reading literature something more enjoyable as i got older. things made more sense and were often times more relatable
>reading the book and throwing up their hands and saying it was boring and pointless
>reading condensed literary criticism that reinforces the depth and significance of the work
Are either Harper's Magazine or The New Yorker worth subscribing to?
>mfw i was enjoying reading their short fiction online and then this thing popped up that said i had to pay
>c u c k e d a g a i n 2 0 1 5
Harper's still forces you to submit short stories by mail, fuck them.
Seems like a waste of money to me.
Bukowski. What should I read first?
Try a good writer

Is he not a good writer?

No, just listen to ICP instead
What local Aussie literary journals are worth reading/submitting to? I know of the basics like
>Kill Your Darlings, The Lifted Brow, Archer, Voiceworks, Cordite, The Canary Press, Going Down Swinging, Overland, Meanjin, Dumbo Feather, Seizure, Tincture Journal and Quadrant.
...but what's good? Obviously I haven't read them all. Actually I've only read a few issues/segments of Kill Your Darlings, but even then I didn't find it too worthy of my time/money.
Or are they just all shite?
thenkyu

Lifted Brow is good

I saw that it had published work by Tao Lin and DFW.
So, how many of you assholes have actually fapped to a scene from a novel/work you read? What was the scene and what was it from?
>Chimera: Ascension
>The scene where he's about to have sex with his pregnant girlfriend, then suddenly thinks about the sexy redhead but hardass security personnel director chick who has been assigned to keep him in check.
I don't know why, but that implication turned my dick to diamonds.

equivocation: the post
Got memed into reading this, already halfway through, does it get better ?
no lol. murakami is a hack and the only people who recommend him are pseudointellectual retards who think they're /deep/ and they'r reading something /intelligent/
>>7459967
/lit/ has a pretty fucking big portion of people who love murakami/will defend him, which isn't surprising since a significant portion of /lit/ is comprised of said pseudointellectual retards
