i buy a lot of books that i dont read, but i opened this rwemerson compilation because it was by my door and i put it in the pocket of my cargo shorts before i went to work

it had some stuff about how writing makes you share a mind with other people even dead ones


knowledge is power

what books have you bought that you haven't read i made a list of mine it doesn't include the remington book i just bought that one



this list leaves out college textbooks i didn't sell back because i dont sell any of them back because i am a hoarder of book

I like keeping big and smart sounding books around my place in easily visible places

like 12 of the books on my list are those barnes and noble special editions with the leather covers and foil stamped labels and gilded edges and ribbon bookmarks because i am a weak man

im like those people that buy every apple product except with ribbon bookmarks

Mein Kampf eh? D&D is probably mobilizing a task force as we speak


hey mein k could be lots of things

it is mein kempf, i had the idea that people should be 'familiar with the words and methods of history's most succesful demagogue' and it should be required reading in high school or something, then i thought that i should really know exactly what is in the book before i make a statement like that so i bought a copy of it


i havent read it

hide it when my mom visits

no one else visits

thanks for the synopsis on the ancient pamphlet you read. a manifesto is meant to be a short political summary by definition so its brevity is neither unexpected nor comical

la dee freakin da, y'all

if you're going do dismiss a statment without any backing facts the new modern presidentialy approved way to do that is to call the stament "Fake News" The Lah-dee stuff is pretty close to the presidential house style but is a waste of characters. Think about your response on a 160 char headline space.
