When I'm in distress, as I have been a lot lately, I am soothed by murder. Is it the estrogen? Cause a lot us are out here. IJS. Anyway, the only true crime vlogger I really fuck with just did a video about a 1-star Goodreads review gone horribly awry. Writers, READER REVIEWS ARE NOT FOR US

David Foster Wallace had a thing for boredom. He had such a thing for it that he turned it into a kind of last legacy. According to a lengthy (and pretty great) piece in The New Yorker by D.T. Max published a year after Wallace died by suicide in 2008, he left behind a third of his final novel, The Pale King, for which he had spent countless hours researching boredom. A typed note he also left behind laid out the book’s central intention: “Bliss—a-second-by-second joy and gratitude at the gift of being alive, conscious—lies on the other side of crushing, crushing boredom. Pay close attention to the most tedious thing you can find (Tax Returns, Televised Golf) and, in waves, a boredom like you’ve never known will wash over you and just about kill you. Ride these out, and it’s like stepping from black and white into color. Like water after days in the desert. Instant bliss in every atom.”
This interest of Wallace’s has been closely connected to mindfulness, but the two things are a little different. Mindfulness is an awareness of things as they come, it is a kind of riding out, but that’s not exactly bliss you find through it so much as a kind of acceptance—which, to a person in constant distress, can no doubt, relatively speaking, feel like bliss. “Pay close attention to the most tedious thing you can find.” I didn’t realize this would be Joker: Folie à Deux.

That’s emotive. I have already addressed your proposition. You have not replied to what I have said but presented your distress. Which is not engagement.

I've dealt with narcissists for most of my life (using as an example) and they are not self aware enough to tell you why they do the things they do - and oftentimes when engaging in abusive acts, it's to quiet their own internal discomfort/distress but they have no deeper idea of why it's there so -

what i usually do in that scenario is try to lie down as if i was gonna sleep. my body will jerk me awake every so often, but i can usually keep myself from making any noises of distress, and the Mythbusters confirmed that even if you don't actually fall asleep, doing this can help restore your body

Thank god for Tubi finally uploading the Hammer version of The Hound of the Baskervilles. Cushing makes a fine Holmes, but he's a bit sidelined. I enjoyed Christopher Lee as the damsel in distress. A bit annoyed by the narrative maintaining the status quo after a superficial "fuck the rich" message

Poster for The Hound of the Baskervilles. Peter Cushing as Holmes looks determinedly at something off camera, while Christopher Lee as Sir Baskerville stands behind Holmes, looking at something in horror
