>tfw addicted to reading and broadening my intellect
ok
>>8216707
Better than being addicted to heroin I guess.
>>8216707
Could be worse, lad.
Sometimes it can get a bit overwhelming though, I suggest making time for doing nothing and maybe some meditation.
Otherwise it's like perpetually eating without ever taking a shit.

I wish I was addicted to reading.
you are so smart la
this question doesn't deserve its own thread so i'll co-opt this one. How do i get into non fiction?
all i read is fiction and poetry. i want to know why people read non fiction and how i can do it too.

You're as much of an intellectual as someone who just reads the wikipedia article about the book.

novels are intellectually honest in that they don't pretend to """""""""truth"""""""",
they are therefore more patrician,

the problem of "free will" is an irrelevant question for bourgeois philosophy to entertain itself with.
>>8216707
God I wish that was me. It would give me something to really immerse myself with over long stretches of time.

>claymation
what did he mean by this?
>>8216830
Is it though
>>8216942
Me too
>>8222862
just read about a subject you're interested in, economics, psychology, psychiatry, whatever
>>8222862
Depends on what you're after. If you're looking for gonzo/biographies there is some good stuff... Certainly having literary merit.

>Asylum by William Seabrook
>Death be not proud
>The tiger: a true story of vengeance and survival
That's off the top of my head. Stuff I would consider literary non-fiction. Stuff I would highly recommend.

No, internet just helps you cope with your already inherently shitty life
>>8216707
Suggest me a book.
