Baudrillard is basically "don't build the torment nexus" for humanities majors, though I guess in his case maybe it's closer to "can we please stop building the torment nexus, whose blueprints I have included herein as a reference so you will know what not to keep building"
Like, when Baudrillard describes a process wherein we lose access to the Real entirely and get trapped in an infinite discursive hall of mirrors, that's supposed to be understood to be bad! You're not supposed to do it on purpose!!

"a man calling himself 'beast' is bribing men and women to participate in unholy games" you would tell that to any arbitrary person in europe for centuries and they would not need any further convincing to say it was the doing of the Adversary

The death of browsing is part of the reason art is the way it is now. Our opinions are largely fed to us by algorithms. Spending a spare 15 minutes wandering around a bookstore or comic shop or video rental place was how you found stuff you wouldn't ordinarily pick up and thereby expanded your taste
Bookselling is like the most "people go to the store and buy what looks cool to them without a particular agenda" type business left, and your purchases have a huge influence on what is ordered, what is displayed, and what is recommended.

When I was young, Rosencrantz and Guildenstern was my master class in playwriting - wordplay, wit, structure. I saw Arcadia three times in a row, just trying to figure out HOW he did that. He was utterly singular, RIP Tom Stoppard, there will never be another www.washingtonpost.com/obituaries/2...

This is right. A thing folks are not really cognizant of is that a reason Mamdani is able to manage this so well is that our communities are so used to bearing unbearably dehumanizing levels of disrespect directly to our faces while still being polite, because we have to to be able to function.

The steam machine seems tailor made to replace the minipc I currently use on my tv as a combination youtube box and steam potato. Like i absolutely want to hook that badboy up to my tv on desktop mode and use it to play even more games
