  • The long walk by Stephen King.

    First reading I'll admit, I liked it for more reactionary reasons, was bullied growing up and reading about athletic kids getting domed was cathartic, voyeur at the roman colosseum.

    Read it a few years later with my new media literacy goggles and enjoyed all the personalities of the people running, how friendships formed by trauma and how quick that gets snuffed out. The ending feels like watching a rabid dog sputter and collapse in front of you.

    The dichotomy of the drafted going through hell while the the non drafters make bets and cheer on their favorites. Valorization of the worse possible moments of your life. Being caught up in this shit especially if your not politically minded must feel like a whirlwind of confusing feelings. Terrified, Proud, Lucky, Unlucky. Shows how fucking cruel and random a draft can feel like, especially for a cause that has no point and is just for spectacle/pointless violence.


  • Turning into a type of guy I was always meant to be: root beer guy.

    I have opinions about root beer

    Dads: tastes like walking through a root beer cloud 5/10.
    Red arrow: Fucking slaps, liquid licorice 10/10.
    Frosties: what you imagine root beer tastes like after years of non consumption 8/10.
    Mug: best commercial root beer 6/10.

    I actually haven't drank that much root beer, im a fucking charlatan










  • Job might be flirting with 5 day return to work... If that comes to fruition I'm going to do even less work then I haven't been doing.

    I have violent thoughts for those smug bootlickers who squeal about how they've been missing the social element and how big of an adjustment telework was for them. Fuck you, find a hobby!!!! monke-rage
