Broadly, it was ahead of the curve on it's observations about how the web was going to mess with culture, and how that *might* create some problems along the way. Forward thinking, sure, but not exactly earth-shattering.
Lain is a lot of things, but a Nostradamus quatrain it is not.

Gettin REAL tired of people saying Lain "predicted the future", as if Japan wasn't Cell Phone & internet central in 1998. Ok it KIND of did (kind of), but mostly they were just making observations based on what was already going on online at the time. It's not THAT prophetic.

It's like finding out they made Countess Bathroy a Disney Princess.
I was telling my wife about how they made a Barbie of La Llorona, the vengeful ghost of a woman who drowned her own children and now roams for eternity dooming all who suffer the misfortune of hearing her mournful wails, and my wife stared at me blankly and asked if she was “known for anything else”

They couldn't even steal Thomas Kincade's shtick correctly trying to make that Coke AI "holiday ad". This is what we're boiling off the oceans for? Bad Acid Furry Master of Lights nostalgia bait? I can't even call it bad, because even bad requires actual effort.

I see what the author is doing, and it's also a really, really stupid thing for a publication of any stripe to print as a serious statement. The Onion wouldn't publish this even as a joke.

Along with the video on detergent he published along side this one, I have not been as spellbound by this man's obsession with appliance performance since the freeze-dryer video from back in, what?, December/January?
His treatise on dustbusters would be frankly epic.

Someone took issue with me saying that American male Protestants are unique in how they've removed themselves from aesthetics. I thought it was obvs that I'm talking about fashion and interior decor, which today are coded as "gay interests," not paintings or architecture.
But let me elaborate. 🧵

I will explain why I think fashion brands should speak up, even if they have profited off the work of undocumented immigrants. 🧵

I support the US garment industry. I don't believe in making life harder for immigrants or erecting blanket tariffs. So how can we reshore some of our US garment manufacturing without xenophobia or protectionism? Here's my view. 🧵

If you're fortunate enough to have disposable income, then right now it is your duty to use that income wisely. You have agency over how you spend it and you should own how you spend it.
Your decisions do, in fact, affect stock prices of big corporations.
