@TheEsteemedFox I have tried and tried to like him. Dated someone who insisted I read Pale Fire. Does nothing for me

@Taghkanic I love Nabokov, I think his insults are funny and true in a way that I understand what he means even though I disagree. He's not at all unreadable!

I'm finally getting around to the last Faulkner left for me to read and twenty pages in I'm really struggling. God damn that Nabokov, poisoning the well with his wisecrack about Faulkner's "corncobby chronicles" lol, I simply can't unsee it now

@RaminNasibov Both?

Is music getting worse or are we just getting older?

@Dostoevskyquot Atlas Shrugged

@wholecinnamon @TheEsteemedFox Nabokov seems like a guy who would be miserable anywhere but a spa for neurasthenics in the Alps, surrounded by rich neurotic women

@TheEsteemedFox this book is FAR better than any of the empty though admittedly beautifully crafted glitter that Nabokov wrote, though

@geralt_of_rivi @DolkkiDolkki @justaflatbat Already have one major aircraft carrier out of commission, and the U.S. is afraid to get too close

@DolkkiDolkki @justaflatbat If they could have they would have by now but they can’t.

I mean, no sympathy for the imperialist navy people but what...precisely is this?

@geralt_of_rivi @justaflatbat It’s not our water

@justaflatbat Then protect your own damn water. Get on a boat and patrol the ocean if you don’t need the Navy

@21stCscribe @thamosdeaf Crystal

@thamosdeaf and for women?

William just kind of smokes every other author name. Shakespeare, Faulkner, Gass, Gaddis, Blake, Burroughs, William Carlos Williams with a double-William name just to flex…

@KeshavM53273570 @IranUpdatesNow What does she assist him with, his colostomy bag?

@IranUpdatesNow She is his assistant you idiot Islamic regime satanists idiots son of bitch people with low iq and no common sense and fans of Greta thunberg

Mysterious woman with large red bag seen getting on Air Force One behind President Trump 👀

@FierceLionPrv28 @annunakkki Also zero proof that anyone was rescued by the U.S.

Iran floating generic names claiming captured Delta operators from the F-15E rescue—CENTCOM denies it flat, zero proof after two weeks. Classic propaganda to smear a heroic success Trump ordered. Our warriors came home safe because America First means strength that delivers. Pure desperation from a weakening regime.

IRAN has published the names of several of the 50 Delta Force soldiers they claim to have captured during the rescue operation to extract the US airman whose plane was shot down over Iran. They are: Sgt. Michael Anderson age 34 Staff Sgt. David Miller age 31 Sgt. Daniel Roberts age 29 Sgt. James Walker age 33 Cpl. Ryan Mitchel age 28 Sgt. Christopher Evans age 35 Staff Sgt. Kevin Scott age 30 Sgt. Brian Taylor age 32 CENTCOM denies that any US troops were captured by the Iranians and the claim cannot be verified by independent sources. If verified, then the "Rescue Mission" was not the "glorious success" that is claimed by the US, but an even greater fiasco than the "rescue mission" attempted in the Iranian desert back in 1980. ~Emilios Georgiadis @DDGSarah

@EyerotGaming @annunakkki

@annunakkki This is absolute nonsense. Why do you people lie so much? Just endless BS and lies. Virtually every Iranian victory is only on social media - and 99% are completely fake.

@echo_tango_3 @annunakkki @outtatime200028 Watch fewer war movies maybe

@annunakkki @outtatime200028 Delta would obliterate any IRGC troops that tried to capture them. They’d drop those fools like a bad habit!

@LummisofLA @invis4yo Even more than that—those who still have some wealth after the country is wrecked will buy up the pieces for pennies on the dollar.

@invis4yo Because as he's destroying the country he personally is raking in millions? And none of the destruction will touch him, his family, or his billionaire donors?

Serious question: why would a United States president actively destroy his own country? We can all see it.

Man crazy how there’s always *just enough* Democrats to stop consequential votes from passing. Ah, well

@BorisDralyuk Yeats has plenty of downbeat poems.

My goodness… Yeats chose a magnificent early poem that, while showing Eliot’s strengths, also provided evidence for the older poet’s critique of his younger colleague. According to Yeats, Eliot was essentially a pessimist, not attuned to the transcendent—“grey, cold, dry.”

@Timiii360 Scumbags

Local villagers said he was a 2 year old elephant. In his death he folded his legs as if he were still a baby.

@NathanJRobinson @Frances_Coppola Simpler argument: Not a single American politician would concede that Native Americans have the right to seize properties which their people clearly occupied as recently as 500 years ago, let alone millennia ago. Yet they 100% endorse this line from Zionists based on fables

Mouin Rabbani succinctly explains why "ancient rights" cannot justify the seizure of land, and the State of Israel's claim to have valid title over Palestine because of ancient Israelites is totally worthless

@SchopenhauerNow The Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam (Fitzgerald translation). Read in 8th grade, mind opened

One book changed everything for you. One philosopher broke your worldview open. Which one?
