Can we read this one
Probably a good starting point for a lot of users into the world of literature.
lmao yāall niggas really read books?
last books i read:
krasznahorkai always. he has a forthcoming collab with eli keszler of all things. the last wolf & herman, although i should get on that āone run-on sentenceā book
zama, di benedetto
fever dream, samantha schweblin
had my eye on a bunch of hidden love correspondences between ingeborg bachmann and paul celan: https://www.independent.co.uk/arts-entertainment/books/reviews/correspondence-by-ingeborg-bachmann-and-paul-celan-trans-wieland-hoban-2183833.html
but i also need a translated version to surface online / or in my library
Finally got bookshelves. First image is philosophy, then board games, then some random textbooks that aren't in my office. I think there's a box of my textbooks in my parents' basement I need to grab Second is for fun reading and vinyls. Lots of HST leftover from my high school days, and I'm wondering what happened to my copy of White Noise.
i have no idea what the fuck is in your pics at all but i had a lot of dumb fun with the resistance and coup (?) i think itās called
keyforge is the next netrunner / artifact
scythe is legit
of interest to me is thereās a new game by the ascension/solforge dudes
i wish i had a gloomhaven group but i guess iāll have to wait for the dumbed down steam release
Theyāre pretty high res, you can zoom in on most. Keyforge is good? Cause I absolutely loved Netrunner (or at least Corp. Runner was meh for me). Coup is great, and Avalon is just an improved Resistance
part of it is no, i canāt actually zoom in meaningfully without putting in some extra effort, and the other part is no one actually cares about books
if keyforge had a proper big digital release i would choose between it and artifact. i donāt think keyforge is particularly complex so maybe comparing it to netrunner is facetious except that theyāre both card games, but the concept is good and for the moment it feels fresh, albeit i refuse to pay $40 every time i want a new deck
nice collection, Eloquent JavaScript really is a definitive piece

I want scythe but i keep talking myself out of getting it because my game group just hates long games so itāll never hit the table.
have you tried decrypto? itās pretty good. has kind of replaced codenames for our group.
Oh yeah Iām on mobile so I can just zoom in by pinching. Top shelf is half Althusser/Badiou/Derrida/Baudrillard/Foucault (heavier on Foucault), and half Deleuze420. Second shelf is standard philosophy (Heideggerian, Nietzsche, Sartre, Kant, etc) with some psychoanalysis (Laing, the two good books by Zizek).
The fiction bookshelf is a mix of really good stuff (DeLillo, Bolano, Gaddis, Krasznahorkai), stuff I find fun (Confederacy of Dunces, Vonnegut, Murakami, Hesse, Heller), and stuff I liked in high school (Hunter S. Thompson, the beats, Phillip K Dick)
why is there no frege on the shelf punk?
Iām not an analytic
Iāve got Wittgenstein and thatās about it in terms on analytics. If I want a mathematician philosopher, Iām gonna go with Whitehead and Leibniz
I always just went to the library
Most of those books are stolen. Iād say like 90% of them. Almost all of the non-used ones (also a bunch of the deleuze ones I paid for to support a great independent bookstore in Georgetown)
