I kind of want to study how schizophrenics write so that I can produce my own schizophrenia journals.

I’m not trying to characterize all stem people as mouth-breathing retards but it’s something that I’ve noticed growing up. All of the kids who liked math and science were generally pretty awful in English, social studies, and history classes. It seemed like they lacked critical thinking and writing skills even though they were definitely bright kids. For example, I knew a very smart pajeet who was taking multivariable calculus during his junior year of high school but was a mediocre English student in our class. He wasn’t dumb by any means, but he lacked the ability to write well and had a rudimentary understanding of subjects other than math and science. What is the explanation for this?

I don't know what the fuck you were trying to say there with your botched grammar, but that didn't help, seeing as you failed to mention any books or authors or even genres. So, thanks for nothing, butterscotch

BOOBA

>main character dies
>it's a first-person narrative

Hate to say it, but Xenophon is a really boring writer.

I'm studying historic preservation right now. Will graduate by next year and hopefully get a job in archaeology, urban planning, or some other related field.

>he also said America was "so utterly dominated by the great Jewish financial institutions" that "they dare not defy" Israelis.

I wonder why they didn't mention this part in the article about how antisemetic he was

Your whole list consisted of not even 40 books? My wishlist on one of my antiquarian book shops is already 1954 books long.

>a state is needed because there are lots of immoral people
>create a state in order to control people for their own good and the good of others
>give the state an enormous amount of power over everyone's lives
>it is impossible to simply prevent all immoral people from entering into the state solely to acquire power for its own sake
>some immoral people do just that
>corrupt and immoral people inevitably acquire enormous control over society
>tyranny

>Travel, instead of being easy for old folks, travel then would become very restricted. People would need permission to travel and they would need a good reason to travel. If you didn't have a good reason for your travel you would not be allowed to travel, and everyone would need ID. This would at first be an ID card you would carry on your person and you must show when you are asked for it. It was already planned that later on some sort of device would be developed to be implanted under the skin that would be coded specifically to identify the individual. This would eliminate the possibility of false ID and also eliminate the possibility of people saying "Well, I lost my ID." The difficulty about these skin implant that ID was stated to be getting material that would stay in or under the skin without causing foreign body reaction whereby the body would reject it or cause infection, and that this would have to be material on which information could be recorded and retrieved by some sort of scanner while it was not rejected by the body. Silicon was mentioned. Silicon at that time was thought to be well tolerated. It was used to augment breasts. Women who felt their breasts were too small would get silicon implants, and I guess that still goes on. At any rate silicon was seen at that time as the promising material to do both: to be retained in the body without rejection and to be able to retain information retrievable by electronic means.

Is that you Nagle?

Why did Gabriel let Satan get off scot-free when he caught him the first time in Eden instead of just taking him back to hell?
