I've always been put off by the kind of pop-coercive advocacy of movies (in theatres) and the performing arts that Steven Spielberg puts forth—"at the end of a really good movie experience, we are all united"; some of my best movie experiences, much or most of the audience hated.

gay men who were bullied for being effeminate boys are actually perfectly qualified to understand how painful it is to have your gender mocked, denied, and violently enforced but you wouldn’t know it from reading the evil atlantic monthly

the Paramount/WBD/Netflix stuff is bleak and bad, but i am strangely, maybe naively hopeful that this will usher in a new generation of filmmakers doing it their own way, with their communities, eschewing traditional models of production and distribution.

The emails from AWP increasingly sound like some kind of spambot trying to scam me out of life and limb, but anyway I'll be in Baltimore next week/end and maybe I'll see you there

Try to keep them, poet, those erotic visions of yours, however few of them there are that can be stilled.

"If Scott Hunter were truly a closeted millionaire hockey player in New York, he would be a dick pic on Sniffies looking for anon hole. For something more romantic, he would probably hire an escort."

deeply fascinating piece by @e_alexjung: "For much of the genre, there has been little recognizable gay culture in M/M romances. There is more compulsory masculinity, less faggotry. Nor are there any of the fraught aspects of modern homosexuality..." vulture.com/article/heated…

The new Ian McEwan is so crazy, I'm obsessed with these future dystopian people and their love of poetry written in 2014

Honestly, it’s a bummer that all the literary discourse is happening on substack. Lauren Oyler used to crash LRB’s servers! Can some editors out here start publishing book reviews worth reading? The issue is not writers but the infrastructure.

Paladino deserves official censure for this disgusting language
Councilwoman Vickie Paladino@VickieforNYC

Zohran wants to make sure we know Muslims are apparently in charge of the snow removal and that we see them praying to whatever they pray to I guess. This is part of Islamic conquest. Mass prayers in the streets, call to prayer blasting five times a day throughout the city, and the mayor conspicuously putting Islam first — both in his hires and his public media. The message is very clear — we are being replaced. And if a Christian mayor had been half as conspicuously religious, the left would be apoplectic — despite this being an historically and functionally Christian nation. It’s all about revolution and dismantling the country as it was founded.

AI cannot take the jobs of artists, actors, writers, creatives in general, if audiences are not first utterly numbed to the search for human connection and human understanding.

Great indies (Europa Editions, Deep Vellum); great larger indies (Norton, Graywolf, Grove); and (brace y'allselves) great Big 5 imprints (Knopf/Doubleday, Random House, Hogarth, Riverhead, Penguin Press, Viking, Little Brown, Harper, FSG, Scribner, &c.). The news ain't all dire!
Wayne Bradshaw@NonwayneWayne

I think middlebrow is dead in the water. Sure, that means big 5 publishing is going to be wall-to-wall pulp, but I hope it also means a new golden age of small publishers. @DeepVellum, @PuncherWattmann, @EquusPress and others, taking risks and publishing books worth reading!

This Gornick quote could've saved me years lol: "Some writers are released into storytelling through the fictional narrator; others are released by the nonfictional 'I.' The first become novelists, the second memoirists. It’s all a matter of what ... lets you tell the story."
