cool new blog title

I am so tired of short-attention-span, trim-the-fat culture. All writing advice these days is for how to write like Chuck Palahniuk. "Cut 'think', cut 'feel', cut 'wonder' - only action, only pushing forward, show and move and move and move." What if I could emulate this style, and still don't want to? What if I want to write like Henry James, with three paragraphs of introspective musings between each dialogue line? The music advice is, "make it shortform, make it Tik-Tok compatible, make it punchy, hit the refrain as soon as possible." What if I want that 10-minute prog rock piece? What if I want that symphony? What if I want it slow and luxurious and lazy? Movies. Series. Poetry. Bodies. Everything is "trimmed trimmed trimmed trimmed, stripped bare, you have three seconds to win me over, make it airport chic." I don't want to win you over, then, I guess. I want the fat left it. I want the pleasure and the indolence and the indulgence. Fuck this art-advice that's always "your art needs Ozempic."

tshirt that says NO ONE KNOWS I EXPERIENCE DESIRE

the ars goetia is still cool to reference, right? it isn't played out

One of the most important things to remember if you care about the world is that the propagandizing of "it's too late to do anything about the environment/climate change" is coming from the same people who pitched "climate change isn't happening". They don't want us banding together to make good things happen.

i do wish the response to the ai water usage concern debate (umm actually the water and mineral usage is roughly equivalent to all of our other constantly growing massive distributed information systems that require enormous amounts of resource extraction etc etc etc) was less of a "haha checkmate luddites" and more of a "hmm maybe we should reevaluate our usage of constantly growing massive distributed information systems that require enormous amounts of resource extraction" but idk

praying for everyone Black in Belfast rn. hella Black ppl lost they homes as a result of this antiblack terrorism.

It's also like... Unless everyone over there is wearing shirts that say "Safe Catholic Irish" and "Bad UK Irish", there's no way a Black person is gonna know who is safe and who's not. So this idea that "it's not the real Irish" well then yeah the Real Irish need to stand up and get outside then because otherwise... You look just like the guy who burned my house down and I don't have time to give you a ten minute interview on your politics 🤷🏾‍♀️
