imagine the shit he'd write if he were alive today >"What if the digital circus.. WASN'T amazing?"
Plotfag or never read TPK?
>>25239007Most people haven’t, Mr. Bond.
Is there some reason DFW is top of mind again here? I've started seeing stuff in other places about him and it's starting to feel like a viral marketing gimmick by his publisher (possible estate) to sell his books.
>>2523903830 years of IJ perhaps I don’t know man
>>25239038it all seems very inorganic. i have seen stuff other places as well not even referencing in. jest.
>>25239040>in. jestAlas, poor David, I knew him, Anon. I haven’t seen anything DFW related on this board that has felt natural in quite some time, certainly not in this decade.
>>25239003He'd probably be screeching daily about blumpf on his substack tbqh.
>>25239042He’d be writing something though. I also don’t think he’d be able to top IJ which seemed as though he put everything he had into it… even though I prefer TPK actually.
My Review of Cardi B's song "Wet Ass Pussy" by DFW
>>25239038The internet hasn't been organic for at least a decade.
>>25239003I can just imagine the film catalogue of Himself if IJ was written today. "Place Your Final Bets on the End of the World Via Mobile App", or "The Subtle Art of Bombing a Nuclear Development Site", or "Don't Sell My Cryptographic Heart", or "Very Intelligent People Meeting in Very Remote Locations to Discuss How to Make Things Exponentially Worse". I swear, if I ever write a novel, I'm stealing this device of having an eccentric creative with a portfolio of oddly named works.
>>25239003Probably something sci fi, both broom and ij are practically sci fi
>>25239048>I also don’t think he’d be able to top IJHe wouldn't be able to, which really shows how terrible a writer and thinker he was.
>>25239003i left my copy of consider the lobby outside and it rained and got ruined so i took that as a sign from god that this guy has got nothing to say to me that i need to hear. and also that i should pay attention to the weather
>>25240142I can’t help but feel bad for him given how much flak he gets not just on /lit/ but seemingly everywhere else. Poor guy was insecure and miserable enough; not that I like his writing or anything… a little bloated and uninteresting in my opinion.>>25239003What is this digital circus thing people keep talking about here??? there’s another thread up that has this thing in the OP too… is it a new video game?
>>25240163>What is this digital circus thing people keep talking about here??? there’s another thread up that has this thing in the OP too… is it a new video game?it's a cg tv show. it's on netflix (to my surprise). i might watch it since i subbed to netflix recently
>>25240163its a cringe childrens tv show for people sick of adulting where the funny cute characters say FUCK and have realistic panic attacks
>>25240171>>25240173Right… I don’t know why people are talking about it on /lit/. I was going to comment on how out of touch I am, but If it’s a children’s show then I’m really not surprised I don’t know what it is.
>>25240185it's quite popular on the web but not that popular. it'd be like a new /lit/ user not knowing what stoner is, i reckon
>>25240173>characters say FUCK and have realistic panic attacksThe Sopranos does this well enough. Hell, Infinite Jest does this well enough.
>>25240188To be fair /lit/ did introduce me to Stoner.
>>25240202You missed the "funny cute characters" part, which is the primary appeal of modern "adult" cartoons.
>>25239113Its made out of chips and wires and not foliage and topsoil, so yeah
