The main problem with the Dune movies is Villeneuve is clearly a way better fit for the kinky/fashy/Mark Romanek Harkonnen stuff than the po-faced desert mysticism stuff and as a result the former parts reveal how boring and dutiful the latter are by contrast

@Bernstein especially considering he's on the record saying the fremen are french canadians

Hey, want to go to a reading tonight? Yeah, it’s fiction written by someone who hasn’t figured out how to be cogent at 280 characters or less, and seems to lack object permanence.

Ever since the courts forced McSorley’s to start serving women in 1970, straight men have been trying to figure out how to build a bar no woman will ever set foot inside. And now it exists.

We're excited to announce 'The Situation Room' by Polymarket is coming to Washington, D.C. The world's first bar dedicated to monitoring the situation. 🧵

@magdajtaylor I've never read it. However I am considering writing a dating manual for young men.

@Bernstein I’m reading The Game right now and honestly, you’re both right!

What, no it didn't! It told men that they could get women by wearing statement hats and stammering through manipulative social scripts

Yeah. 2000s PUA was way too robotic and formulaic. But at least it told men to be attractive by being fun, interesting, and relatable.

Once I tried to write an essay diagnosing an entire generation of people based on the quirky aesthetics of a woman I dated. But I couldn't come up with a pithy coinage like "dinergoth." Later I discovered she was just a rockabilly, and those have been around since the 50s.

It's kind of funny that at the same time as the President , in wartime, will talk to literally any reporter at any time of the day or night, about whatever, Vanity Fair decided to run an AI-generated feature because the head of a company wouldn't give them an interview

Note to self: Joe Bernstein has channeled Cioran’s aphoristic pessimism quite astutely in a single tweet. The key to Cioranism is noncommittal. :)

The reason it's fun to read about infidelity is that it's all about lying — which writers and shrinks know is the truth. The reason it's mind-numbing to read about polyamory is that it's all about honesty — which writers and shrinks know is a lie.

@DangerBrooks can you find three of them? that's a styles story

@Bernstein Big and obvious problems here, but also he's I think he's on to something. There's a post-Hot Topic aesthetic out there that is recognizable, non-local and not amenable to my understanding of previously existing subcultures.

It probably makes sense that at exact same time as the sacred status of the individual human is being devalued by technological change, we as a thinking species have become utterly fixated with uncanny "type of guy" taxonomies that an AI might create

You’re not hallucinating the great weirding of America. The visual evidence is everywhere.
