    the really stupid thing is that i feel like if i go and watch a film or read something for a few hours, that’s an isolated experience. i’m disconnected from the (vague) sense of community i feel online; i feel like i’m missing things.

    but then i go back online and it’s the same garbage. even just 10 years ago it used to be good garbage, now it’s just stuff that irritates me

      Movies have objectively gone to shit.

      It’s like our culture got permanently constipated around 1985. The writers born before that are aging out about now.

      A creative culture is a relaxed culture with lots of free time. Now it’s common to work 2 jobs and never afford a house.

      Maybe a meteor will hit us. I hear there’s an “eclipse” coming soon.
