for someone who portrays themselves as a conservative muslim - a white barbarian reembracing a despotic territoriality and dreaming of a spiritual empire now that our temporal empire has fallen into decadence and is being eaten away by the deterritorialization of capital - tom's cultural tastes are firmly and decidedly liberal postmodern & american in the worst way.

This passion for wanting to meet the latest poet, shake hands with the latest novelist, get hold of the latest painter, devour ... what is it? What is it they want from a man that they didn't get from his work? What do they expect? What is there left of him when he's done his work? What's any artist, but the dregs of his work? the human shambles that follows it around. What's left of the man when the work's done but a shambles of apology.


That's one of my favorite quotes from the book

yeah sure you did. what this actually means is you treated them to a slightly more bougeous buffet with the extra money you made blackmaleing user ThirdReichFromTheSun over the pics he sent you in fucking confidence! which you betrayed!



that information was relayed to you over a private IRC channel during a manic episode, and you know it.

Goatstein you remind me of this part in "From Hell" where it shows all the sick minds that go into writing those freaky letters to the police. I always think of you as the religious father of four who's wanking it while writing about cutting off some breasts.

you are ugly and hate yourself more than you hate other people so i'm not sure why anyone would want to be like you and wallow in utter misery (but not the good kind of hopeless despair, but rather jealousy and spite)

#191
Im not ugly and I don't hate myself. I don't know why you'd think that. Probably socially crippling mental illness, if I had to guess
#192
youre ugly bro sorry to break it to you. check your privilege.
#193
Some people's parents said that people are mean because they are jealous and some kids grew up actually believing that. Curious
