Anon has a realization about his dating life
  • Can you help me understand what’s interesting about vtubers? Someone I knew was really into it, but watched a vtuber for a few minutes once and absolutely did not understand the appeal.

  • Gen Zers are turning to ‘radical rest,’ delusional thinking, and self-indulgence as they struggle to cope with late-stage capitalism
  • loved your essay man, thanks for sharing that. Your bit about how rejecting our society as it is can only be understood as pathology hit me hard.

  • Does anyone actually use bathroom bluetooth speakers?
  • lol this is the only response necessary

  • An-Caps?
  • Gotta read that, just finished the actual novel and I love some of junji itos work, this should be great

  • An-Caps?
  • Is this junji itos frankenstein?

  • How do you feel about CGI in anime?
  • I mostly hate when they mix 2d and 3d, it always stands out too much. Like the tanks in the original avatar series, or when mappa started animating AOT and used 3d on the titans. I think if you stick with 3d for everything, it can be pretty good

  • Humble Book Bundle: The John Scalzi Collection
  • Not sure if his other stuff is good, but collapsing empire and consuming fire are not great, wouldnt recommend. Just felt like he had to pump out some books for a contract or something.

  • Politicized science inevitably tends toward pseudoscience
  • Anybody got the whole article? Blocked from reading the entire thing unless I start a 7 day free trial, lol

  • If people keep telling me I'm pretty I should probably believe them
  • This is a tricky situation, since I wouldn’t want anyone to rely on external validation for their self-esteem, but here I think it’s OK to lean into the probability that your friends probably aren’t lying to you, and that you might have some internal monologue that’s hurting you.

  • What could Anon do?
  • Oh shit, that sounds pretty cool actually

  • Am I strange for not loving Everything Everywhere All At Once?
  • That’s a perfect example, since I personally didn’t care about the references, it wasn’t for me. But I bet it was a trip for you, and that’s great! So no worries on whether a popular piece of art doesn’t resonate for you, it’s just not on your wavelength.

  • Am I strange for not loving Everything Everywhere All At Once?
  • It’s fine! Just what you like. there are countless things that are critically acclaimed that aren’t for me, I chalk it up to different perspectives on what art should do. People loved that “ready player one” book, but I thought it was trash lol.

  • "Train 🌟" by minimoss
  • Love it, beautiful work!!

  • What's the most unique role model you've heard that was a green flag?
  • Carl Sagan was already mentioned, he’s def a favorite of mine. I’d also add Matt Mercer, everything I’ve seen of him makes it seems like he’s just a wonderful person all around.

  • A24 Expands Strategy From Arthouse Gems to More Commercial Films
  • Fuck. I mean, let’s wait and see, but def doesn’t sound good from here.
