go ahead. tell me Paul Thomas Anderson is counterrevolutionary. tell me romance novels with a two-year age gap are Normalizing Grooming. tell me it's fascist either to like or to dislike Taylor Swift. attack every piece of art with Tumblr Puritanism until we finally kill fiction altogether

i love reading about the median American voter, who is Ralph Wiggum and determines the fate of the world
quote from NYT article about a survey: "Voters are divided, however, on whether “open to immigrants” is a good description for America at the current moment: 48 percent said that it described America well, while 49 percent said it did not in the Times/Siena survey."

quote from Sleep by Godspeed You Black Emperor: uh, when I was very small, I even got lost at Coney Island, but they found me. On the, on, on the beach. And we used to sleep on the beach here, sleep overnight. They don't do that anymore. Things changed, you see. They don't sleep anymore on the beach...

quote from William Faulkner's Mississipi: They too were in the camps where the De Spains and Compsons and McCaslins and Ewells were masters in their hierarchical turn, shooting the does not only when law but the Master too said not, shooting them not even because the meat was needed but leaving the meat itself to be eaten by scavengers in the woods, shooting it simply because it was big and moving and alien, of an older time that the little grubby stores and the accumulating and compounding money; the boy a man now and in his hierarchical turn Master of the camp and coping, having to cope, not with the wilderness where there was less and less game, but with the Snopses who were destroying that little which did remain.

the statement is literally true in the way that 1,238 + 3 leads to a high number
quote from Fluto Shinzawa at the Athletic: "David Pastrnak and Morgan Geekie proved to be a good goal-scoring combination. But beyond that, the Bruins could be in a bind offensively."

some dipshit tweeting "AI filmmaking and storytelling is punk rock. It's hip hop. It's counterculture. It's a new type of creativity. It's a new medium. It's hated by the mainstream film and art establishment. It resists ideology. It ignores gate keeping. It's uncomfortable. It's scary. It's viral. It's accessible. it's refreshing. It's welcoming. It's here."

A lot of people are tearing into this based on things they fear it says but it's actually a pretty good piece
snippet of article: "As you can tell by that quote, what's sold as a kind of men's self-help project is in fact an ideological programme grounded in hazy eugenics, Social Darwinism, latent anti-60s backlash and free market economics." snippet from article: "Obviously, this is appalling. But more importantly, it is false. It is a lie. And because it is a lie, it will not actually get men what they want. It will not make them more desirable, in fact quite the opposite. It'll turn them into resentful, pathological crybaby freaks." snippet of article: "The single most important masculine trait you can have is competence. Obviously, it isn't only men that have this trait and it isn't only women that find it attractive. But competence is much more often celebrated in masculinity than it is femininity. And, despite the fact that it is hardly ever mentioned in this type of discussion, it is probably the most desirable quality you can possess." snippet from article: "There is a technique to talking to women which is far more effective. It is called: treat them like a fucking human being. Just actually talk to them. If you must, imagine that they are a man and then talk to them the way you would in that scenario. You will find that your status, if this is the key variable we're worrying about, has massively increased."

men often bad, yes, but from the clues sprinkled in this free association, the writer seems to have ended an (open) marriage with a young child in pursuit of the guy described below. i don't think the immaturity is all on one side!
quote from NYT personal piece: I toppled the whole structure of my life for a man who, when I asked him, “Do you want to be with me or not?” replied, after a few seconds’ silence, “I want to be with you, and I want everything everywhere all at once.” J. was referring, of course, to the 2022 surreal sci-fi comedy set across a multitude of parallel universes in which many versions of the protagonists play out many versions of their lives, each millisecond branching fractal-like into countless alternate dimensions, creating infinite selves, infinite fates, infinite answers to the dilemma of how to be and with whom. This film had moved him deeply, seeming to capture qualities of his neurotype that he seldom saw portrayed.

Reaves played 35 games last year, had no goals and two assists, and got outscored 6-4. He fought once. He also wasn't scratched after either of the two games he got a point.
screenshot of tweet from Mark Masters: "Ryan Reaves on last season with Leafs: 'Just a lack of trust very early ... I had one bad game & I was out of the lineup for 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 games. I'd come back in, have a good game, but taken right back out. I really could never gain any momentum..."

tweet saying i think Ryan Reaves actually has fixed the Leafs' team toughness because now they know if they seem too obviously soft the team might start playing Ryan Reaves again

correction from the CBC: An earlier version of this story was incorrect. In fact, school children in Alberta under the new rules will be allowed to read books with information about puberty, menstruation, breastfeeding and other non-sexual topics, such as hugging, kissing and hand-holding. The earlier Canadian Press reporting incorrectly stated that students in Grade 9 and younger would not be allowed to read about those topics. Jul 10, 2025 4:51 PM EDT
