retroanarchism

I don't usually post meme content on this blog, but I've seen a lot of the reverse of this meme because that's how the meme goes. In my personal opinion, I feel like we need a few memes like this, and finally, my favorite book is becoming popular with a larger audience!!!

White background with images from the webcomic homestuck and text. Text reads, Fellas, if your favorite webcomic has different text styles to signify speakers, characters spiraling into madness, pages mentioning sexual things in nature, and an everchanging house. The word house is colored blue

White background with images of the book House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski and text. Text reads, That's not your favorite webcomic, that's House of Leaves.

also, tbh I could not for the life of me get the right shade of blue, so I'm disappointed in myself.

I also attempted to add Alt Text for the first time, so if anyone needs it to be clearer, I can try to make it better! I had no clue how to describe the text turning into a picture of the book, so I just wrote it as if it was all text...

HOUSE OF LEAVES IS DONE TAKE THAT ZAMPANÒ

big j rambles house of leaves i have. not fully finished processing that i think i get what ppl were saying yeah my first thought was “i need to reread that soon” (actually my first thought was “i need to read the appendices first” dakjbvjkdsnvksv)

Black courier font on a white page that reads as follows: "Which back then meant absolutely nothing to me. I sure as hell didn't pause to think that some lousy words were going to land me in a shitty hotel room saturated with the stink of my own vomit. After all, as I fast discovered, Zampanò's entire project is about a film which doesn't even exist. You can look, I have, but no matter how long you search you will never find The Navidson Record in" (The Navidson Record is underlined). Page xix

All this hype for House of Leaves and it’s just about Goncharov? This’ll be an easy read /j

house of leaves starting one of the most notoriously difficult pieces of ergodic fiction while in college? you bet ✨

When the footnotes are footnoting

Just finished Appendix II-E and. That hurt. A lot

i understand johnny now i don't really *like* his half of the story (especially when he's going on about thumper) but man. do i get it also *that one letter* was an exercise in mounting dread as i decoded it this book is brilliant house of leaves

#he is absolutely trying to figure out the dimensions of the house#unhinged behavior but also somehow a completely valid way to read this shitass book

I feel like this is simultaneously the worst way to engage with this narrative and the closest to the intended experience.

Dude's out here trying to solve House of Leaves. I give it to page 120 before the actual minotaur gets him.
