We need a national alert to go out. I won’t even mind being woken up for it.
- Comment on What comes after postmodernism? 5 days ago:
An academic pissing contest to name it. I’m not kidding. Cosmodernism, metamodernism, transmodernism, remodernism, etc., they’re all trying to make these stick. It’s always a reaction to, but partial furthering-of, the movement that came before it. So if at its simplest modernism is “oh my god we’re fucked, how do we make sense of it” and postmodernism is “oh my god we’re fucked, let’s have fun with it,” I think we will see a desire to return to order and sincerity, but with, as I would be inclined to agree with Alan Kirby, a shallowness resulting from technological progress and the “brainrot” mediums (so to speak) that we’re increasingly immersed in. He throws “pseudo-modernism” in the ring as a contender.

If it’s longer, prettier, and less fun than the original Max Payne I’m not interested.

I just want a mechanic where your character slowly succumbs to PTSD and tinnitus, making them unplayable, and then you have to navigate the VA to prestige.

That’s the real issue here.
- Comment on What's the difference between the UK justice system and the U.S. justice system? 4 weeks ago:
In the US, at least, it’s a legal system. Justice is frequently missing.

Kafka’s short stories are great. “A Little Fable” is only a paragraph long but speaks volumes to his sense of humor, which is often overlooked. I also recommend two essays on Kafka: David Foster Wallace’s “Some Remarks on Kafka’s Funniness,” along with William H. Gass’s “Half a Man, Half a Metaphor.”

- Comment on I Found It: The Best Free Restaurant Bread in America | Thirteen thousand miles. Infinite contenders. One beautiful loaf. 2 months ago:
Warning: super long read. But a very interesting genealogy of free bread! I thoroughly enjoyed this.
Also, why I hate Olive Garden:
Horner’s demonic calculation for how many slices or rolls each table’s basket should contain is [Number of diners] + 1. Unevenly divisible bread creates “a tension that I really enjoy.”

- Comment on When did Saturday Night Live get so cringe? 2 months ago:
Gonna get some hate here: it was always cringe, and we just have nostalgia for when our favorite lineups were on (usually the cocaine years). SCTV was way better.

He’s good enough as a writer when paired with Stephen Merchant, who presumably balances the edgelord side out. When left to his own devices, however…

- Comment on Would it be silly of me to get a small dog if I am a little afraid of bigger ones? 2 months ago:
When you go to a shelter there will absolutely be large dogs and small dogs of all temperaments, some in kennels and some free-range if they have the space. That being said, as someone else commented, perhaps try volunteering at a shelter! You can do good work and get lots of exposure to all types of dogs, and learn from experienced people how to get a read on dogs and how to handle different situations. Also, shelter dogs tend to act a little differently when they finally get a nice home environment — their personalities really come through when they get some love and stability.
