Of course this is how Anne Carson accepts the Nobel prize.

It was a short call, Carlberg said: All the poet would say was she was “in Iceland,” where she was “listening to the wind.”

Hopping between contemporary fiction and peak Nabokovian prose is its own form of whiplash.

Reading Nabokov is like being wrapped up in a warm, woolen blanket. It's a little suffocating at times but damn is it cozy.

Insane lending library find. Nine Brautigan books? Nine Brautigan books!

Three big Richard Brautigan books, each one a collection of three smaller Brautigan books.

MOONRAKER is maligned as silly and cartoonish but its villain, a tech billionaire obsessed with colonizing space, human extinction, and repopulating the earth with his personally-selected gene pool, is so correct it feels like the writers were prophets.

On a bad day, I get cynical and think most people do not care about the quality of work they encounter. Whether that's writing, tv, music, art, even advertising. They just want something to pacify them. They don't want to engage with it beyond having it there.

One difficult thing about offering a critique of something systemic or structural is that if it doesn't come with either a solution or stakes for why it matters to someone's material experience, it can feel like you're an asshole in a dorm room.

Why they let people write on topics who openly admit to, at best, having no interest in their subject, or, at worst, having antipathy toward it, is a mystery.

Seriously: Hate Digger all you want, but [pauses for flow of hate] movies like Digger are why we need studios. A world in which Digger doesn't get made one in which Sinners and One Battle also don't get made. You miss with Heaven's Gate and you still swung. You miss with Paw Patrol and you >

For how much I resisted those movies when they were coming out, it's surprising how ubiquitous and beloved they are in my life now.

"The woods, motherfucker." — Joshua Marie Wilkinson

So, I ask her: what stops you?
The woods, she says.
What begins you then?
The woods, motherfucker.
She says, I wanted a loose tooth
to suckle the day through—

What's pain but customizing yourself.

I get a lot of "we're going out of business" ads on Instagram and I wonder how often that's just a ploy by dropshippers to fabricate a scarcity mindset to get you buying. It's got to be 400% of the time, right?

Dispatches from Chequamegon National Forest. 25 miles of hiking. Four nights of sleeping lakeside in a hammock. I don't know why we came back.

A still lake reflecting the green trees in the water.

The forest at sunrise. The lake is still, reflecting the trees.

A line of bright red and orange trees coming surrounded by green trees.

Primetime is all about performance and the way people (un)intentionally become the roles they create for the media, and the way those roles take over and destroy the person. That's exactly what happened to Elizabeth Holmes. Empty vessels chasing success, destroying everything in the process.

I'm still deep thinking about Primetime. The fact that Lance Oppenheim directed this makes me understand his Elizabeth Holmes documentary with Nathan Fielder, because these two films appear to have similar themes and ideas.
