you guys actually wear jeans?

>>13982471
What the fuck is wrong with jeans? bootcut blue jeans are a bit tacky, sure. What's wrong with a darker straight leg jeans.

>>13982748
jeans violate natural law and the aesthetical imperative
unless they are khaki colored or not identifiable as jeans

>>13982757
>jeans violate natural law

>>13982471
No one should wear jeans over the age of 23

>>13982764
We are in a crisis. Joggers are hte modern equivalent of pantaloons and cotton trousers but they have been dishonored by their wearers and stigmatized. Objective timeless fashion is under attack

>>13982839
i'd like to hear your opinion on shirts and hoodies

>>13982951

Get off the edge, jeans are perfectly acceptable (and fashionable) for men of all ages.

Why do they make weird faces when they pose with the book? Why are they even taking pictures of themselves at all? What is the purpose of this behavior?

>>13983311

>>13982970
Are you in sixth grade or something?

>>13982970
I actually hate this notion. Like I've known people back in High school who'd buy into this. If you're making something creative and you're a good writer, you'd also be very deliberate with what you say too.

>>13982988
Cringe.

>>13982748
Jeans are for work. Get khakis.

>>13982748
Pants are for undesirables.

Yes but I prefer overalls. Sometimes corduroy. I really like Jodhpurs but they are hard to find in the thrift and consignment shops I go to

>>13983698
When a women does it, it's because they think it's cute or quirky. These are men who think like women.

shirts plain in manor are timeless like the exomis of the laborer. Hooded shirts are more peculiar and out of place being worn my non monastic types.

He's the vanguard of pretentious pop-sci hacks. He opens one of his books by saying that philosophy--all philosophy--is essentially dead and only science and its anointed can be the torch-bearers of truth and reason in today's day and age.

I'd agree that science is useful and effective at evaluating phenomena in the physical world, more so than philosophy currently is, but for a man who was so valued as one of the most intelligent people EVER to just dismiss an entire ideological system--the same one his own coveted science comes from--with nothing more than a, "i dunno it sucks lol" argument is disgusting. I'm sure he made great strides for science, good for him. But he damaged so many other things in the process that i have to ask myself if it was worth it. Either way, I'm glad he's dead.

dismissing fiction is extremely bluepilled

>>13987035
Depends on what fiction you're dismissing.

>>13983009

>>13987053
Or why you're dismissing it, I should say.

there is just as much bad non-fiction as there is bad fiction

When I was single for about a year it was like a coin toss as to whether my tinder match mentioned Murakami in her shitty bio, along with "I love to travel, wacky Simpsons quote, wine glass emoji".

Peterson's suffering is way higher than that now. Since he's having a benzo withdrawal so severe he needs rehab, he must be having hallucinations and focal seizures. Update the chart and make his suffering somewhere between 80-95.

>>13986875
based imo

>>13982763
The Knee Deep In The Dead doom novelization is one of the few shitty pulp books that I have actually enjoyed. Would recommend.

I don't get this meme, process philosophy contradicts Plato.

>>13994994
A famous Whitehead quote is that Western philosophy is all footnotes to Plato.

>>13994994
Process ontology is a dialectical advancement to being-ontologies

>>13994994
don't you remember whitehead quoting timaeus from plato directly?

>>13989328
Ernest Hemingway hasn't been a part of the basedboy lit scene for a while. He's too chauvinistic for basedboys who wants to fit in with the feminist crowd. Unless, of course, you're reading Hemingway ironically because you appreciate literature regardless of your biases. Which makes you 'cool'.

>>13995274
i hate niggers (post ironically). should I read hemingway? i think I read the one about it being quiet in the front. it was ok

>>13995048
Was Kant an incel?

Can someone post Saddlers what you see what she sees? I cannot find it

>>13995796

The cringe hits me strong even overseas, man.

>>13982988
Cringe but also based because the chick on the right is proper cute so there is no net change in the based-cringe scale.
