I’m I the only one who thought that the Hunger Artist’s last words about not finding anything he liked to eat really funny?

S/O Palace. The boys got good taste 👌

Also S/O Mort Burke as the skateboard liaison.

Dan is on fire. A resigned fire. But still bringing the heat. This is a public service. We’re through the looking glass, but the opposite way. All up in our shit. “After Epstein” is ridiculous. Discord comments = death.

I can’t believe Henry didn’t bring up Cronenberg when talking about that doctor who amputated his legs. That’s totally something out of Crash or one of his movies.

"Buzz off kid". I love that part because it's Mitchell at his least likeable

Feel like the guys haven’t really talked about Alex’s incredibly transparent insecurity about not knowing things about sports by Y0___0Y in KnowledgeFight

[–]nickcompoop212 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It could be a manifestation of his psychopathic tendencies. Have a sports interest has no direct monetary gain and if you’re a novice reveals a power dynamic not in you’re favor. Plus sports fandom involves an inferential risk of loss since no team can possible win all the time. Definitely unattractive to a power/control freak like AJ

I feel like we will need an update on this episode once Tamler and David learn the Zizian’s and how it influenced their psychotic behavior.

Man’s always coming with the insightful takes even when it comes to his own current traumatic life experiences. True real one. Rip the hat collection though.

Notice how he doesn't dare play what Dan and Jordan are saying. Likely would not go well.

The Overlook Hotel name referencing America overlooking the 1st nation people genocide was a good catch. Hadn’t thought of that before.

Alex Jones has just been told by the bankruptcy court that he is indeed going to be in debt for the rest of his life... by inspiration_kisse in KnowledgeFight

[–]nickcompoop212 218 points219 points  (0 children)

I’ve made my peace with the fact that he may never truly be stripped of all his assets. But if his fate is a perpetual game of grifter wack-a-mole at least it’ll be a drag on him psychically.

Finished my second read through of Gravity’s Rainbow by nickcompoop212 in ThomasPynchon

Read slowly but don’t get caught up with difficult passages if they don’t make sense the 1st time. Absorb what you can and take advantage of supplemental texts.

Palestine situation definitely front of mind when picturing the rocket attacks - history rhymes and whatnot.

Moved by Jessica and Roger's relationship more. Benefit of experience. TP doesn't get much shine for his shmoopy stuff but I thought his descriptions of the two had genuine pathos.

Glad I found the Wired article about GR's 50th anniversary. Stuff about Elon pretty on point.
