Im new here. I searched the catalog before i posted and there wasnt a kindle thread.
I just finished God Emperor of Dune and want to finish the last two books but my eyes are sore as hell from reading on the goddamn computer screen. I assume kindle reduces eye strain. And if i can pirate books ill probably get one
pic unrelated: its Michael Obamas balls slapping the front of his pants when he was dancing on Ellen
Why is he so likeable?
>>7393614
Because he knows about all that popular culture that I also know about.
>>7393614
Soft-spoken, educated, attractive
Because he chose to be, at least publicly.
The studdering is half planned, half genuine.
Does anyone on /lit/ find interest in autobiographies and memoirs?
I don't mean coffee table, flavour-of-the-month doorstoppers written by somebody on the chatshow circuit, but actually influential autobiographies/memoirs like Malcolm X's, Kurosawa's, Miles Davis', Michael Palin, etc?
I've always had a fascination for great ones but it seems they don't get that much mentioning around here. What does /lit/ think? Have you read any autobiography/memoir that you wished gained more attention/appreciation?
Pic related. I'm reading it at the moment, I never realised how tragic growing up was for him. He was immensely wise.
I read Charlie Mingus' Beneath The Underdog which was frustrating, distasteful, yet revealing, personal and pretty amusing too. It felt very much like James Joyce if he shot up a whole bunch. I especially liked how Mingus wrote it from the perspective of his consciousness rather than himself, and his discussions with his therapist were pretty interesting too.
Would recommend it if you're open to a lot of sex. I was a little disappointed that he didn't elaborate more on his music or creative process, but overall it's an unusual memoir.
I've just started this and I'm enjoying it. It's pretty interesting to see how he, Stein and others reacted to other writers works. Paints a nice picture of Paris too.
why does nobody share my interest in ten hour holocaust documentaries, /lit/?

Are you going to let us know if we got it right or wrong?
I bet you guys anything, If Harry Potter would have been written in this day and age, it would be labelled as fat shaming.
Back in the 90's it was still acceptable to poke fun at peoples weight, without: muh cunditions, muh feelings.

Any other Kantians here?

That's not Kant

Kant does not even know why he thinks that empiricism is bad.

If matter is all there is then there is no truth, because truth does not have a material shape.
If truth is eternal and we can know it, then there must be a part of us that is like eternal, because like receives like.
There is. It's not eternal, but it's eternal-like.
The reason why you don't see anybody claiming this, no matter how much their metaphysics point to it, is because it's a claim about human physiology. It's a claim for potentials that would unquestionably be labelled as paranormal in the current time. Technology can't measure it yet, so trying to push the idea is pointless.
