I do love Sartre and Kierkegaard, as my signature would indicate, but I loathe Skype as inauthentic...

Still, best of luck with your search, and always remember that Hell is other kinky people with a mildly different interpretation about something minor from you.

 

[BoobLover78]

Sent you a Skype add invite.

What is authentic to you?

 

[DesEsseintes]

What is authentic to you?

In terms of communication - pen and paper, or anything else where thought marks the world with physical form. In broader terms, all the usual things - living and acting as if the eternal return were true; taking responsibility for my own thoughts and actions, etc.

Don't get me wrong - I like surfaces, masks, playfulness and insincerity with the best of them. It's just that I'd rather be aware that's what I'm doing.

Voice and video chat is as sincere as I can provide in this god forsaken internet existence of mine. Oh well. Let us lament this mask.

 

[DesEsseintes]

Oh, madam, I know the need for masks, and do not lament them. I just fight to remember that the mask is not the person, and that physical presence still counts for something. As I once heard a psychologist say, with regard to gaining the trust of a patient over time:

'Don't just do something. Stand there.'

And so, as Leonard Cohen would have it, here I stand. Delighted to make your acquaintance.

I forgot about that song. I got nostalgic!

 

[DesEsseintes]

I forgot about that song. I got nostalgic!

I am happy to have been of service. I love nostalgia. I feel most nostalgic about events long before my birth, and times and costumes I cannot possibly have lived in or worn when they were fresh. The 20s masked balls of London move me almost to tears, whilst today's parodies inspire little more than a sigh.

Wistful may have been a more accurate word then. I think I feel the same way you do about certain time periods before my birth.

I'm a shaaaaaark!

And then, as Sartre was sitting in the bistro, putting the finishing touches on his Etre et non-etre, the waitress asked for his order.

"I'll have a coffee, please. No cream."

The waitress was a long time returning, and when she did...

"I'm so sorry M Sartre; we're all out of cream. Will you take it without milk instead?"

I haven't heard that in a really long time. Thanks!

A shark! I thought you said you were a Snark. Are you really a Boojum?

I'm a shaaaaaark!

All is spectacle
Inauthentic is the new artifice

 

[Erosian]

I'm not up on my philosophical literature, but I often yearn to have high-level conversation and get into some heated debates. I don't mean arguments, but sometimes I'm talking with my friends, and everything is just so superficial and dull. It's a rare treat when someone challenges my preconceptions and make me give pause.

Phonesex is something I've had a pretty good handle on for a couple of years now. If the skype connection is stable, that is. They can be hit or miss, and the latter can really kill the mood.
