i started reading samuel becketts trilogy and now im depressed. i know they sell harry potter books with darker alternate 'grownup' covers so people dont get embarrassed to read a colourful wizardbook on trains and such but i think this should go the other way as well so that stuff like this has a ~DisNeY PrINceSS~ version with pictures of playful kittens on every other page because i seriously spent the whole day in LISTLESS FUNK while reading it

Man I'm horribly ill-read in all this stuff so I have no idea if he's........canon lol or not in these circles. I liked a lot of stuff in the book and some of it about the uh 'postliberal' fetishisation of the Id in terms of the culture of Enjoy Youself ;) and the connection with fascist fake politics and spectacle seemed really good. Maybe he's just paraphrasing someone else though?? Gimme all opinions. Lets open up a dialectic in this motherfucker. I'm gonna watch that Zizek! thing tomorrow maybe.

it's applied lacanian psychoanalysis as motivation (or justification) for structures in marxist theory. i'm not big on marxism or lacan, from what i can tell he's generally regarded as a SHOW BOAT and some people like him and some people don't. i don't know how accepted he is as an academic

I found a copy of Black Hawk Down lying around. I might read it. Haven't read a book outside of school stuff in a while.

Just finished A Clockwork Orange. A friend said I should read it so I did...I really liked it! Hard to get used to the Nasdat at first but overall a pretty good book. Now I'm reading Where the Red Fern Grows because I had to read it in 7th grade and it was one of my favorite books...this will be my 3rd time reading it. I cried when I finished the first and second time

The Infernal City. I don't normally read books based on games and such, but The Elder Scrolls has a fantastic world that has always been begging to be written about.

It's a pretty decent book so far, nothing fantastic or really memorable, but it's an enjoyable read. My only gripe is that the chapters are ridiculously short.

you should all read The Manual of Detection because it rocks. seriously

That’s right, you have the young gaming with the old(er), white people gaming with black people, men and women, Asian countries gaming with the EU, North Americans gaming with South Americans. Much like world sporting events like the Wolrd Cup, or the Olympics will bring together different nations in friendly competition, (note the recent Asian Cup; Iraq vs. Saudi Arabia, no violence there) we come together. The differences being, we are not divided by our nationalities and we do it 24-7, and on a personal level.

We are a community without borders and without colours, the spirit and diversity of the gaming community is one that should be looked up to, a spirit and diversity other groups should strive toward.

the hero of ages trilogy, "the last empire" the well of accension" and "the hero of ages" i had to get the lase one from an importer since it wasn't out in britain yet, pretty good book interesteing idea for "magic" i put that in quotes buecase it's not exactly what i'd call magic but it works well in it's place.

RIP DoktorMartini
