They definitely have their money too lol. But "self-important" is right, it's all just so proud of itself

I think one of the worst things to happen in games has been the Houser brothers being convinced that their writing is good

I went back to it for the first time since release and it was borderline unplayable. It just keeps interrupting the levels with bad cutscenes, Rockstar just hates letting people play a game

You just devalued essays as uncreative work and as something an AI could do well enough to be published, why should anyone want to read yours then?

The point isn't to produce essays, it's to teach students how to think for fuck's sake. The minute you automate that, it's over. You might as well close the course. Which they're also doing. This is an attack on learning, and everyone is just shrugging.

Before sports betting was legalized everywhere, I was neutral about it, thinking that it was a personal choice. Now that it exists everywhere I have been radicalized against it like a 19th century suffragette

I'm a little proud of dogged American dirtbag ingenuity and hubris that makes it baffling to a lot of us that you can't make a cheap AC unit work in almost* any building w/ common and cheap materials which is a large factor in their ubiquity in many places here where they probably shouldn't be.

0.000% of Communism has been built. Evil child-murdering billionaires still rule the world with a shit-eating grin. All he has managed to do is make himself *sad*. He is starting to suspect Kras Mazov *fucked him over* personally with his socio-economic theory.

Personally, I think the idea that all women should be measured by the failures of Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris is actually a sort of sexist doomerism.

The image of making sense of federal officers except it's overplayed with Wolfenstein 3D nazi sprites: border patrol -> guard, National Guard -> SS trooper, ICE -> Otto Giftmacher, FBI, DEA, Secret Service -> Elite guard

“I don’t know what’s going on and nobody does” is such a telling thing to throw in there. I think everyone knows exactly what’s going on? Also why would your dad send you a hundred texts saying the same thing

I will say that I find it weird that a lot of people are like "this is the moment that will tip us into violence" when a Minnesota politician was assassinated in her home 2 months ago and someone literally shot Trump in the head last year. how exactly is charlie kirk the tipping point

The Ghazal I Asked For

After Larry Levis

I will light novels on fire, hold them high, let syntax drip onto my chest, crisp like hot wax on skin, old burnt words
I will collect texture, take scuffs from brick, pull hangnails Blindfolded, I will read like braille the world's hurt words
I will lie naked on wet gazettes, osmose an aria from touch hope that it works; that on my skin there will lurk words
What to do with these words; arrange them? Play Tetris with image, hold an adverb, flip familiar, overheard words?
I will work from taste, find my way from zest and stale air I will sit at the edge of the bed. You will kneel: her words
I will hold until the moment to make something worth something
I learn to love pain, hope I have deserved or earned words
I will pull the words from my skin. I'll bind and sign them Alfonso. I give you all I have, and now they're your words

I love to show up every day for my job, which is standing around holding the front of my tactical vest and getting told to choke to death by thousands of passers-by while 11 of my coworkers handcuff a roofer on his way to work. Every night I drive 80 minutes home, thinking about nothing at all.
