I swear I just saw a showtime kid who went through puberty since the last time I saw him. Probably like 3 or 4 years ago. Crazy.

When my dad came to visit me in the caribbean, even he was like "Dude how is every single guy the most beautiful guy I've ever seen?" Fully heterosexual man

There’s a conversation happening on TikTok where the girls are finally talking about how a lot of men aren’t actually attractive. Like you go to the grocery store and see a ton of stunning women, but men? You will remember how many months back you last saw a hot man.

Everyone on instagram thought I was making an innuendo but what’s what is the sleeping donkey brought to mind the futility and wrongheadedness of [a certain kind of] analytic interpretation. ‘Man is but an ass if he go about to expound this dream.’

Virginia Woolf’s diary entries on James Joyce’s Ulysses: “An illiterate, underbred book it seems to me; the book of a self taught working man, and we all know how distressing they are, how egotistic, insistent, raw, striking, and ultimately nauseating. … I finished ‘Ulysses’ and think it is a misfire. Genius it has, I think; but of the inferior water. The book is diffuse. It is brackish. It is pretentious. It is underbred, not only in the obvious sense, but in the literary sense. A first-rate writer, I mean, respects writing too much to be tricky; startling; doing stunts.”

Like I look into his eyes and I literally hear On Avery Island. And he hands me a Marlboro. And I’m like it’s okay if I only smoke this when we’re at the shows. Stay with meeeee 😩

fortysomething guy on here who is like all the high school lit boys I knew preserved in amber. Passionate defenses of DFW. Bloviating about literary rankings like literature is fantasy football. Neglected pomo novelists are basically gods. I fucking love it. makes me feel safe.
