Hey there! I'm just a girl looking to connect with some fun people and, yeah, a little bit of dirty chatting wouldn’t hurt. I’m really into gaming, especially RPGs, and I love whipping up new recipes in the kitchen. Who knew cooking could be a major turn-on? I also dabble in photography—maybe I could grab a few candid shots of us in the kitchen? I’m always down to share some spicy pics or maybe even a sexy clip if the mood strikes. Not really one for the outdoors, so I prefer late-night chats or just a chill afternoon online. But if you're up for some wild conversations right off the bat, I’m your girl.

Hey there, I’m on the lookout for new friends (or more) who are cool with keeping it casual online! I’m super into music production and binge-watching the latest Netflix series whenever I get the chance. Honestly, I’m just a chill person who loves to chat and have some fun—I'm all about that late-night convo life! I can get a little wild, especially when I'm home alone (let’s just say my creativity shows through in more ways than one).

If you’re into gaming, I might need some tips on that because I’m still learning to not suck at FPS games. I’m also into crafting, so if you’re looking for someone to share DIY tips or just blow off some steam with, I’m your gal.

Now, don’t get me wrong, I’m totally down for some steamy chats right off the bat if you are! Just a heads up though—don’t expect me to be all about that small talk. If you wanna skip to the fun part, I’m game. But if you’re more of the 'let’s get to know each other first' type, that’s cool too, I’m pretty versatile.

So, if you're ready to dive in and keep it interesting, hit me up: E m-m-i e-pqoz (make sure to strip out the spaces and dashes)! Can’t wait to see what you’ve got for me.

You should consider the type of man who would become not an author, but merely a "writer." In the former case, he has something to say and the desire and capacity within himself to complete it. He is willing to take action and to confront his thoughts head-on, even when it is painful for him to do so. He may be over-intellectualizing, pretentious, aloof, unstable, or not, but he is still driven by artistic strength and ambition, and at the very least this translates into a more authentic relationship.

In contrast, the "writer" writes because he has nothing to say. He is so full of unfinished and unpursued thoughts and emotions that, like his loves and dreams, will either be forgone or approached only half-heartedly, ready to be abandoned at the first sign of trouble or insecurity. He is everything wrong with an author, but nothing right.

>>34337179
i don't honestly think all this was within the idea of the anon i referred to, as it seemed to be a simple personal against a certain category: since it was replying to 'artist girls are psychotic', it would segue into 'men who write [regardless of author/writer distinction] are more so', whereas this delves more into the semantic.
that said, i still don't see how this 'writer'-type has "nothing to say" -- i think that even one's most mediocre of efforts to transcribe a modicum of their consciousness into words still holds a degree of veritable humanity that is all as genuine as a lauded writer's, for consciousness itself is a curious product of time, environment and individual perception. otherwise agree that one's work must be engaged on the merits of their intent and drive, and unmemorable writings will yield an unmemorable writer

>>34337356
>i don't honestly think all this was within the idea of the anon i referred to
Of course it wasn't, both of us know it was a negative generalization anon had because of a single experience.

I'm sure there are people who could enjoy watching fruit taped to a wall as well, but no one should think the fruit is saying anything. I'm sure you'll be tempted to make the age-old "meaning is what you..." argument; anyone can bludgeon a topic with the hammer of nihilism like some neolithic caveman, but it doesn't make for meaningful or, most of all, interesting discussion.

>>34338141
yea, i was mostly confused about why develop an idea over something so silly... regardless it is welcome
>fruit taped to a wall, post-structuralism
that'd be a real low hanging fruit point for an also low hanging fruit (ha) example... i'd say that even my standard for 'most mediocre effort' is already higher than pieces which get their recognition not from original intent and a genuine collective work of criticism and analysis, but from almost purely public scandal.
that said, while i don't subscribe to the idea that meaning is up to the vision of the individual -- whether this is artist or observer, i do accept barthes' semiotic theory that it is actually a collective effort on both parties to advance fruitful interpretations regarding aesthetic, cultural or ideological aspects of a piece:
hence, while i don't consider fruit taped to a wall to be particularly valuable art, i also find it incorrect to liken it to a nihilistic call to the void, since its meaning could be derived by the generated discourse about what is and isn't art.
anyway, my bottom line was that i enjoy reading about and experiencing the averageness and mediocrity of people as much as i do examples of sheer excellence, but i'm starting to suspect my idea of the former terms were much more romanticized than yours

Anyone else up late and feeling a little restless?

Then you're trying way too hard to pretend to be smart on an imageboard. By context, the distinction made here >>34337179 hinges purely on those who complete and release works and those who aimlesslessly write, with the former's perseverence in writing translating into capacity to maintain relationships, while the latter's more encompasses the serial underachiever who flits from idea to idea without ever sticking with one; This could also be compared to the kind of pseudointellectual who styles himself on Barthes.

The statements that the banana has value and "that meaning is [not] up to the vision of the individual -- whether this is artist or observer," are mutually exclusive. You can attempt to mitigate it by being very ambiguous ("particularly valuable...") but the inherent contradiction in saying you do not believe art is subjective yet defending the Comedian is unavoidable; The art would purely be the cocreative process between artist and observer, not in the art itself.

Furthermore, everyone already knows that the Comedian can be considered commentary on art, but in doing so you are only pointlessly displacing the problem of the banana's nihilism. Of course the writer's banal fruit can be suffused with meaning by the reader, but only the author turns the mundane into the Fruit of Knowledge of Good and Evil. In my post, I already say as much—the banana is not saying anything, in much the same way that the writer is not saying anything; its meaning comes from creative interpretation. This, of course, ignores the glaring issue that "nothing to say" was a pejorative, not literal, but if you are itching to demonstrate your "intelligence" then it can be hard to resist reading very poorly.

i do not see the connection, and it still puzzles me how you recognize the original anon's comment was a sweeping generalization while mantaining that one's output should reflect one's personality traits (i understand you think moreso than its contents) -- sure, maybe a good work ethic and ability of organization, but i assert that is barely the essence of a whole, organic person
>This could also be compared to the kind of pseudointellectual who styles himself on Barthes.
ouch! i'll take that for citing something i'm admittedly not very well read on
>author turns the mundane into the Fruit of Knowledge of Good and Evil
but how does he? i believe this is the very difficult question for which even the most dispersive and seemingly meaningless of pieces play a not particularly valuable fraction into answering; and to be very clear, i do believe there is a definite answer -- this is where my strife lies: my incomplete inner understanding and my distrust in cheap external answers.
anyway, i hope you'll excuse my lack of clarity or unnecessary wordiness... i do not often get to think and discuss like this, and i find what you say to be very curious -- you certainly have developed your idea on the matter more than i did

>>34341333
I apologize for my incorrect insults. I misjudged you. I've cut the following down to two posts for brevity's sake; this is coming close to derailment.

In a sort of Barthesque move, we can separate the discourse on the art (which is art in itself) from the Art. The placing of the banana onto the wall is its own sort of "art," and the discourse around the banana is a separate, related, though undeniably distinct "art." I do believe the critique surrounding such things as bananas on walls can be artful or even genuine art, but it's too easy to conflate the banana with the artist's placing of the banana onto the wall, and the critic's interpretation and discussion on the nature of the banana. A critic can spin a masterful, imaginative myth about the banana, but the banana itself is not saying anything, and whatever the authorial intent, it is too indistinct to be meaningful. In such likes as the Comedia, the banana can safely be called not-Art, because it carries no meaning—whatever meaning it possesses is entirely extrinsic. (Barthes would say: "No!")

In contrast, a work such as pic related or literary art forms are typically "saying something." The meaning may be obscure or relative to the sociocultural norms of a given time and place, as well as the author's own unique language, but so long as the symbols are known, the meaning of the work can be told with great clarity (Barthes would say: "No!"). In this photo, you can tell that it depicts overwhelming grief and death. You may not know all of what is signified, but given the painting without its context, clear meaning can be derived—there is intrinsic meaning to the art. (Yes I know we can get into a discussion about what is or is not meaning, and collapse into nihilism)

>>34341251
>>34343884
A child without language could feel unsettled looking at it, and recognize the sadness and horror in Ivan the Terrible's eyes. Unless we begin referring to exceptional cases (as I'm sure there are psychopaths and crustaceans that do not share universal human experiences), irrespective of language, the painting itself says something universally recognizable. This suffices to describe art in a very ambiguous manner, but is about the extent to which we can expect to go without collapsing into nihilism (we are both able to recognize that meaning/symbols/emotion/human experience/etc can be questioned and ultimately eliminated and abolished, but we choose not to do so, as we would then be spending a lot of time discussing nothing).

Now to answer the question,
>but how does he?
As you said,
>consciousness itself is a curious product of time, environment and individual perception
As in pic related (from Barthes' WDZ, though this is not the intent of the passage), the author takes from those factors he cannot control, his Nature, and through his particular decision conveys meaning, his ethos, in art. Barthes would hardly declare meaning necessary to the artwork, as the meaning which can be derived from it is infinite. As his later works show, he himself collapses into total artistic solipsism which, though internally consistent, can hardly be deemed constructive.

All of this is to say, who knows what art is? I class art as directly commensurate with free-will or conscious, of those things self-evident yet unproven, and perhaps unprovable. Yet one always finds those grinning smugly and calling consciousness an illusion or some such, not out of earnest belief but intellectual self-pleasure.

Finally, my derision for the writer is only of a certain type of person who no doubt produces art of some degree, but to call it the same as that produced by "the author" would be an overreach. It's really more of an offhand pejorative.

Is anyone here willing to take requests?

i do appreciate the way in which your vision of artistry is able to generate fertility out of an airtight theory of ultimately 'nothing', i also come to understand your disregard for 'writers' over authors. admittedly, my fixation on the term was closer to a psychological-type than an artist, mostly owing to personal sympathies for a few others whom i vaguely recognized in your description -- and maybe myself?
either way, thanks for your cohesive and cogent insight, it's food for thought and i think i needed it; i won't pretend to be well-knowledgeable on this matter, so i unfortunately have very litte to disagree or add

What I find interesting in your distinction between “author” and “writer” is the moral weight you give to completion. It suggests that finishing a work transforms thought into meaning. That’s a modernist idea, art as testimony to will.

Barthes’s triad of language, style, and writing doesn’t really support a hierarchy between those who finish and those who only write. In Writing Degree Zero, writing is the place where freedom and constraint meet. The author doesn’t escape the limits of language or the habits of style; they negotiate them for a moment, and that negotiation becomes the meaning.

When someone says the “writer has nothing to say,” they might actually be describing what Barthes thought every author lives with: the permanent feeling of being unfinished, of language always running ahead of intention. The writer’s drafts aren’t lesser work; they’re just what the struggle looks like while it’s still happening.

It's not really about the work itself, there is no weight behind completion necessarily. It is about the psychology of the type of man who would be deemed a "writer" on 4chan and not an "author." This also doesn't mean that all writers who don't publish are bad writers, and it isn't a condemnation of the type who don't publish either, it is solely those types on 4chan that >>34323272 is likely mentioning. Namely, guys who fancy themselves writers but are merely depressed underachievers with vague artistic ambitions and a notebook full of ideas that will likely never be borne to fruition. This the type of man that calls himself a writer on 4chan. Now if he were published, he might be a very different kind of man entirely, but whether or not he is published isn't necessarily what makes his works good or bad, nor even necessary for making him "a writer man" or an "author" in type.

I cover the attribution of meaning from externalities in the posts, and no doubt someone will consider a writer-anon's
>once upon a time, it was a dark and stormy night... in a galaxy far, far away... (the end)
a thrilling and extremely meaningful poetic piece about unfinished literature and modern genre writing in the 21st century, but I frankly don't care. An unfinished work like Dead Souls can be extremely meaningful, but "H" (the first letter an author wrote before he died of an aneurysm) doesn't have any meaning in itself other than the externalities of the piece. In the truly Barthesian view, this is more or less a meaningless statement; this is why I specify (Barthes would say: "No!") to distinguish the Barthesian view from my own.

The fun segue into the meaning of art itself is actually irrelevant: A writer's work may be "saying something" but the writer himself may not be. It's about the writer's psychology rather than the works he wrote, so in a sense the concluding paragraph you have is correct.
