"Balsamic" Jane Vinegar @maximumhorkheimer.bsky.social · 29/09/2026I find NOROI very comforting to watch and think about, and I’ve never quite figured out why. But here is one reason for sure: characters in that movie make bad decisions constantly, but making good decisions instead would not save them. 000

"Balsamic" Jane Vinegar @maximumhorkheimer.bsky.social · 27/09/2026I was complaining to my friend E—— that I like Herrera a lot but his novels all have titles like SIGNS PRECEDING END OF THE WORLD or THE TRANSMIGRATION OF BODIES or SEASON OF THE SWAMP and E—— said, “Are you complaining that his titles are awesome?” That was enough to change my mind about it. 110

"Balsamic" Jane Vinegar @maximumhorkheimer.bsky.social · 26/09/2026It was so huge when I replayed MURDER DOG IV: THE TRIAL OF THE MURDER DOG earlier this year and found a joke about THE MAN WITHOUT QUALITIES that I had totally missed when I last played it, having not read the novel. MURDER DOG IV is so funny and good. But it is also pure Doryslop. I know that. 120

"Balsamic" Jane Vinegar @maximumhorkheimer.bsky.social · 26/09/2026Video games are not really in my life but this has not always been the case. Couple years ago I was at a Laurie Anderson show downtown and I ran into somebody who I last saw when I was five or six years old. “You were very serious about Crash Bandicoot,” she said. I suppose I was. 050
