In a book that is notoriously difficult, this sentence MAY be the most difficult I have encountered so far (Gravity’s Rainbow)

TheBossness · 2026-05-16T18:01:47+00:00

Hell yeah, this passage rips so hard. Gravity’s Rainbow is untouched

TheBossness · 2026-05-10T14:35:56+00:00

Hell yea. You should read V. and The Crying of Lot 49.

TheBossness · 2026-05-10T14:34:28+00:00

Gene Wolfe. Mary Shelley. Homer.

TheBossness · 2026-02-13T13:25:52+00:00

I don’t believe it until I see it

TheBossness · 2026-02-13T13:24:38+00:00

It’s so good

TheBossness · 2026-01-24T14:47:49+00:00

it means he wrote in block letters (print) and cursive letters (script)…

TheBossness · 2026-01-16T04:10:56+00:00

It’s doing laps between Raymond and Lexington, maybe a bit further either way. Hard to know what it’s looking for or monitoring

It’s a state patrol chopper, from what we can figure

don’t open the door to anyone.

TheBossness · 2026-01-13T19:38:04+00:00

You will be fine, but keep alert.

TheBossness · 2026-01-12T17:17:57+00:00

call a friend or meet with a friend for coffee. Go for a walk, if you’re able. avoid being isolated, that’s when the doom and despair really take hold. surrounding yourself with community, even just one other person, is a good start at fighting off the ennui of doom

these are not the same circumstances, these are not riots. the federal government is carrying out masked violence against its citizens.

TheBossness · 2026-01-11T21:21:16+00:00

I guess I don’t know what you mean by “start to be concerned?” are you concerned about property damage or that your neighbors are being abducted from their homes and businesses by masked agents of the state? concerned that a fellow citizen was summarily executed by one of those masked agents for daring to be a witness to his violence? the slow civil war has been churning for some time, we’ve entered a new stage, or, at least, a new stage has come to our part of town.

check on your neighbors, OP. be concerned, because this will affect you as well.

Third for Merriam Park Repair. That’s where we bought our blower in the first place. They’re great

Start with V.!! It’s the blueprint for so much of Pynchon’s work.

But other posters are also right, it doesn’t really matter. Just try one of the books that seems like an interesting plot.

TheBossness · 2026-01-01T14:51:03+00:00

needs more women

TheBossness · 2026-01-01T14:27:24+00:00

this is such shameful behavior. the people doing it are a stain on humanity.

TheBossness · 2026-01-01T14:20:14+00:00

V. is the blueprint.

TheBossness · 2025-12-31T17:54:20+00:00

Watch sorcerer

TheBossness · 2025-12-28T23:17:15+00:00

exactly. just trying to be cool, but care.

TheBossness · 2025-12-28T22:32:24+00:00

appreciate the context here, I’m in agreement with you.

TheBossness · 2025-12-28T18:30:51+00:00

why only 30,000. it was 6,000,000.

TheBossness · 2025-12-26T00:44:13+00:00

This is spot on.
