  1. If it's replies on Twitter you're reading, very good chance they are from people in India and Africa.
  2. Bodega cats are true and pure souls
  3. Pretty sure Kegsbreath went on Fox the day of the strike and said he was watching it live?
  4. What in the fuck? Poor people just don't understand how to politely exist in commonly shared space?
  5. In my 8th grade science class in the hill country we were told to use the Bible as an empirical source.
  6. They can eat my whole ass dead body if it will help them survive.
  7. I just fuckin' love cats so much they're just the best 🥲
  8. Wonder where that account is based from
  9. Is he like just now seeing this?
  10. Finished it the other week. Narrator somehow nailed how I always hear Ignatius is my head. It's a great pick for family holiday viewing
  11. @SydneyCarton Did you end up watching Perfume?
  12. Imagine being a billionaire who bent the knee at the first sign of aggression from Trump and watching that press conference. D y i n g
  13. Unreal lmao
  14. This is def his breakout year. I don't think I've heard a bad or poorly written song from him. Whole catalogue of socially conscious folk bangers.
  15. Jesse Welles has been killing it for a couple of years now. Guy is an incredibly talented musician/singer/songwriter

  17. You'd think the business leaders of America would have something to say about government statistics disappearing

  19. I was an English major at one time and ended up with a degree in linguistics (not that I ever did anything with it lmao). I find the enjoyment of reading Nabokov myself versus listening to Jeremy Irons read Nabokov to me to both be beautiful and fulfilling ways to consume Nabokov's work. They are just different, and ultimately they enhance each other. Maybe my internal narrator just sucks. 😕
  20. I guess my question (and probably the source of my apparent insecurity about the concept) is this then: what actually makes it different? What am I losing or missing out on by listening to a novel instead of reading it? I've done both. I've been incredibly touched by both. What is the point of it being a "hill to die on" to quote our conversation stater, if not to striate media consumption? (Yes I know he's not being entirely serious there)
  21. The BBC series of Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell is also quite good, but not up to the novel's standards imo Fair enough. $4 on Amazon
