There should be like a Bechdel test for documentaries about other movies and they only pass if they don’t trot out the worst most bottom of the barrel cultural studies academics as talking heads

Something eerie about how no one seemed to care about the Olympics at all this year.

No disrespect to Mr. Jagger, comfortably the greatest leading man in history for my money, but has there ever been a sex symbol as ugly?

@pierre_ambig I remember getting shitfaced at his parents' house once while they were out of town, maybe like...over 15 years ago? They had a really nice hot tub.

interesting case study that shows what white men have had to do over the last 10 years to remain employed in avant garde art spaces. Compare Ben Bogart’s bio from 2016 with 2026. Same guy. Except he reinvented himself as “neurodivergent nonbinary agender” (they/them, of course)

basically this type of right wing McCarthy hater is mad that he was a Gnostic - but you know what? so was whoever wrote the Book of John.

Whether you're mad the man kept a teenage girlfriend or that he didn't write nineteenth century novels, all McCarthy derision boils down in one way shape or form to permanent undergraduate syndrome. Stunted growth. Rufo sits on college boards, this is just embarrassing.

Right before Blood Meridian, I read Brothers Karamazov, and sure, the prose, at least in translation, isn't as riveting and the characters have the romantic emotional expression of their time, going into fits of hysteria and succumbing to "brain fever" and letting loose sheets of dialogue, but they are recognizably and fully human, with rich inner lives and the thread of Christian hope woven through the plot, and the story drives forward and the higher feelings stick with you at the end. Blood Meridian gives you babies impaled on a mesquite tree and the broken neck of a glass bottle shoved through a bartender's eye socket. Fine, I guess, but I want the Grand Inquisitor and Dmitry's injustice at trial and the Cluster B psychology of Grushenka and Aloysha's final words at the child's funeral. Plot, character, emotion, humanity, God.

Also, this statistic is much better than I thought the real numbers were, and he cites it like he's prophesying our downfall

This was the part of the dinergoth essay when I realized oh this guy is an autogynephile trying to understand his own sexuality. He will be trans in six months.

I understand most people’s resistance to abstract art but whenever I see a Kandinsky I really feel something, like the spirit opening up, seeing new patterns and possibilities, just as with the best music.
