do you make note on your reading?

[vimothy]

I like the idea of self-directed learning

 

[shiels]

me too, it’s a seductive idea the obsessive auto didact, the wolf of the intellect, yeah that’s me! It’s not though is it

 

[vimothy]

Im not into making notes on everything I read but I do like buying textbooks on subjects I don't know and trying to work through them

 

[shiels]

Are you able to move through methodically, check in on your understanding etc?

 

[vimothy]

when you're on your own you can't move in any other way, I think

 

[thirdform]

don't take notes unless absolutely necessary. it's like music. most music is a derivation from other music.

Sum up kantbot for me then? Sounds like a bad idea letting people like this get together to do stuff, always goes badly

the kantbot nexus

these are my favourite twitter accounts at the moment. in the hallowed tradition of anglo/american cranks. part bullshit, part autism, part genius, part mental illness

cool

so vicious

i mean it must be a nice feeling to have a big handwritten archive like that around the house

woops is a literal sadist

 

[luka]

There's basically nothing else in my life I'm as fastidious about, mind you. House can be a mess, computer files totally unorganized desktop barely navigable... but the notes are organized.

You should get back into it! What're you trying to do with them though, I guess? What're your aspirations, with the knowledge?

We should all peer-pressure linebaugh into becoming a painter or videographer or writer I think

i dont think so. hes got no talent. hes the second cleverest boy on dissensus after poetix though. an intellectual. no imagination.

What the hell man?

 

[shiels]

I agree I think poetix is the cleverest the fucking nerd bastard

 

[luka]

What the hell man?

just wanted to do some knifings

 

[woops]

woops is a reductive and misanthropic sadist

 

[entertainment]

@entertainment you should go get one of these and report back

I'm not into tattoos. I'm with Neo Rauch who say that they're "emblems of an empty soul."

 

[wektor]

No clue why but I never do. Not even underlines. Maybe I would be too embarrassed if someone happened to read it after me and saw what I considered important.
Insightful thread.
