i would like to see more socialist or anti-imperialist fiction but i feel there is too small a market

What do you think of it? I read that a long time ago in middle school and didn't like it, but I've been meaning to reread it as a middle aged adult.

i'm currently reading à rebours, objectively speaking i don't think it's a bad book so far but something about it makes me drowsy almost immediately

Currently Reading the Don Flows Home to the Sea, the second in a duology depicting the lives of the Don Cossacks shortly before World War I and into the Russian Civil War. Lots of great comparison between the roughness of the Cossacks and the land itself.

This. Comparing things to "reddit" is fucking retarded. Thinking that people can BE reddit is retarded. There's no competition between reddit and other websites. These fucking faggots supposedly loathe reddit so much and yet they give it such power by always, always, constantly referencing it as an insult to people who don't even use it. People made their choice and they're here. And the second they're not edgy enough or they're too mature that's the insult: "Go back". Go be with those "regular" people with their normal opinions, or whatever the actual crime of reddit even is. There's no way to tell from context. Just anything the accuser doesn't like becomes "reddit".
Did these people get kicked out of there or something? Who pays any attention? I'd never know anything about reddit if it weren't constantly mentioned on imageboards as some sort of bad place for dorks or something.
It's basically free advertising. I don't understand.

I got banned from this site for adding Epstein Files revelations under "Real Life" on a few pages

I wish the “Follow that Car” trope worked in real life

I'm like 80% sure I made this post two years ago. I didn't know this thread was even still here. This is a pre-hard-drive-crash thread.

I was saying the website can be used that way. and yes tropes and cliches can sometimes overlap.
>>42319
I did not say that writing a good story was purely and simply a matter of subverting tropes, but that the website could be used as a way to avoid cliches and tropes in order to write less formulaic and more surprising works. audiences have a habit of saying "seen this before" when you use too many standard tropes in a cliched or non-original way.

There is a part in Paradise Lost when Satan arrives on Earth, where he contemplates his fate, and concludes that there cant be no escape from hell because he fundamentaly cant change, redemption under dures of infernal suffering would not last the moment he is free of it, he would return to his old ways and earn himself hell once again.
I remember crying while reading it, recognising my own condition in it.

A farewell to arms made me cry. It was all for nothing.

I recently read Land of Men by St Exupery, I found it deeply poetic and beautiful and it did move things in me (wether when he free a slave, when some desert people see a waterfall for the first time and ask when its gonna stop, when he talk of the desert resistance fighters that get a purpose in life through their enemy, his pal that walked 5 days straight in the mountains to save himself after a crash and almost gave up but refused by thinking of his wife not getting insurance money if he disappeared). The early day of aviation were crazy. I really need to read the little prince now.
I also had a tear reading an assisted suicide scene in black man by richard morgan, but more because the personal stuff its associated with and the fact its obviously a strongly emotional scene.
I had a tear of awe and joy when reading children of time by tchaikovsky and the spider civilization entered in contact with its creator for the first time, reading its response.
if anyone is interested but dont care about spoil I can dig up some quotes

Still spot-on. This article reminded me of your post https://www.pastemagazine.com/tv/amazon-prime-video/fallout-tv-series-ending-explained-spoilers-streaming-industry-corporations.

Just read through the Judge Dredd spinoff comic Fall of Deadworld, or at least what's available now. It's not a bad apocalypse adventure story, and the art is really good at being creepy and unsettling.
