If God appeared to you in a dream and offered you one wish the same way he did Solomon, what would you ask for?

However, it is important to note that these techniques should be used sparingly and with care, as overuse can lead to confusion or a sense of artificiality.

>>23395249Theres no evidence for post life sentience, but theres no evidence for anything for after life
>>23392222>AgainstPhenomenology>ForThat feeling in the back of your mind that there has to be more to life than this. That leap of faith.
>>23395249What is phenomenologically different between losing your explicit memory and dying (at least in the way you describe)? My answer: there is none.I think after we die, we lose *connection* to our explicit memory, but the experiential continuum continues on. This could happen now even.Watch my "My Stroke of Insight" with Jill Bolte. She talked about experiencing extreme retrograde amnesia and can no longer identify photos of her family. There is a phenomenological gap between her present personal identity and the past.
>>23392222There’s no good logical arguments for life after death. The only thing that can lead you to think of such a thing is the inability to detach from your human consciousness into the state of pure nothingness; you just can’t understand the state of being dead, being nothing. The only “argument” for theism isn’t an argument, but rather an intuition, a feeling that there has to be a life after death, stemming from the inability to detach from the human element of life into death. Obviously, there is no reason to rationally think that you will survive your own death, but the intuition is always prevalent.
>argumentI don't need one. I just know.
He was right about everything
Freud is a jew who understood that after the atheist bourgeois revolutions, men and bourgeois women were sex and drug addicts just like him and since women who dont work but love to gossip about sex, he figured he could have a little cult around him, composed of whores and bourgeois desperate to hear how sex addiction is the nature of the human psyche framed into a self made and self aggrandizing myth disguised as science to surf on the atheist hype of positivism lol.100 years later atheists still consider him their guru, since they are still lobotomized sex and drug addicts...

What is your experience with people who write?Here is mine:If male: extremely insecure, want to be viewed as smart and wise more than actually having substance. Pedantic in their writings and can fool some people with it (mostly women if they are good looking, or undeducated people who are impressed by big words). Extremely envious of other peoples sucess. Try to be obscure and random for the sake of it to generate fake depth. They want to have an aura of mystery by adopting the suffering artist persona. In a word, try hards. Often influenced by movies and games more than books. Left wing. Prototype: DFW but more obscure and random maxxingIf female: writes poetry with no rhyme based on something she lived or felt. Not very different from a journal in most cases, but the more talented ones actually imbue their routine impressions with some appearance of artistic merit. Want to have an aura of mystery by adopting the wise mystical woman persona. Wishy washy or outright incoherent in their writing, can get some men to pretend to be impressed by it if shes hot because they wanna hit it. Often promiscuous art hoe types. Left wing. Prototype: Clarice Lispector or Anais Nin (without her insight but as much promiscuous)
>>23387774Art as therapeutic proxy adds insult to zero prosody naval gazing injury, and they can't handle when you - the Gal/Guy - take a hatchet to it to form something less insufferable to all concerned, requiring more rhetorical finesse than is ever worthwhile. The men don't want to be novelists or poets: their models are actually journalists. The women are fishing for MFA bux to get paid to blog in enjambled miasmic menstruations in verse rather than (god forbid) settle down and start a family, but nearly always will have a marginally better aesthetic than the men at least.
>>23394036Who the fuck becomes a writer for the "aesthetic"
>>23387774Latin american anon here. I'm a published poet and am currently studying for a masters program on literature. Know a lot of writers, including award winning ones. Here's what I've seen.Male:1-Insufferable dudes that write poetry or short prose and refuse to take any criticism about their writing. Are extreme crybabies or just dilentatte know-it-alls that feel special for reading japanese literature and DFW.2-Gay dudes that write about the gay experience. Are pretty nice guys, until you say something that they think is "homophobic", even if it was not your intention.3-Style over substance dudes. Write poetry or prose in the style of the vanguards of the 20th century; lots of random wordplay and calligrams that mean nothing. Dudes are usually pretty harmless though, and just write as a hobby or for artistic expression.4-Novelists which are very smart and take their craft seriously. Usually become academics and teachers.5-The casual genius guy that is just insane as a writer and is the next Pablo Neruda; gets ovations at every book showing or poetry slam that they do.6-Me: I feel I'm not that technical or interesting in my writing, but people like me because I'm intense and my style is dark.Women:1-Social conscience over substance girls (feminists, leftists, etc.). Usually not very good with the pen, they tend to give up on writing after realizing that people don't care about them as people / everything they have written has been done before.2-Girls that write about the most inane shit ever: romantic love with boyfriends, their family, hobbies, etc. At most they can only be read as comfy slice of life, at worst they will evolve into a future high fantasy writer of the worst caliber.3-Actual intellectuals that wrote one book then an-hero'ed or disappeared into nothingness and became teachers / social workers.Comment too long.

Release day is here who is copping this
took a peek at the book after scrollin thru this thread. the zoomer language does lessen in comparison to the first story, but overall the My First Novel isn't really that interesting. 4/10 I've read worse, but I've read a lot better books/anthologies as well

Let's face it: it's not easy being OP.It seems that any inkling of "fandom" gets isolated and roundly shit on.All jokes aside, how do you feel about fashion as presented in literature?In Cyberpunk, at least, you had the leather and hairstyles.But going even back to the 1800's you have presentations of beauties in dresses and gentlemen in suits.After all, before we had movies we had books!What is your favorite fashion scene in any literary era, and is there anything you haven't seen realized or represented in media that you would like to see?
>>23394173Not sure, I'd say visual arts tend to give a clearer sense of fashion than lit, but lit is the best medium to show how characters perceive others' fashion
>>23395819>lit is the best medium to show how characters perceive others' fashionI think that's true.I feel that it has something to do with fiction's ability to display these differences and things through literary techniques or something.It's like a deep understanding or something that's implied through which we 'just know' how a character is reacting to or feels about something.I think that's something that movies actually are unable to capture.

>>23393425Part 7:''Writing Guidelines:''* Be able to accurately match the emotions of the person this is for if they were acting as the character from within a dream (thus, coming from genuine emotion, the action and dialogue should be easy to express for any human actor wishing to genuinely react to the situations in the scene)* Be as simple as possible, avoid rambling as if the audience was 5 and you could lose them at any second. * Illuminate your subject in some new and useful way.* Reveal character (and contribute to the character scene arcs) or advance the action (and contribute to the story scene arc).Review the entire story 7 times for every element making sure each is properly applied and editing with a focus on each, reading the [[VonnegutEight(8)RulesOfWriting]]. accompany it with an internet tip associated with that element and improving upon it + other general tips such as those related to humor (ex. rules of comedy). At the end of every writing session always include a summary of what you need to do next so you know exactly what to do next time you start writing.
