>In the early 1990s, Wallace was in a relationship with writer Mary Karr. She later described Wallace as obsessive about her and said the relationship was volatile, with Wallace once throwing a coffee table at her and once forcing her out of a car, leaving her to walk home. Years later, she said that Wallace's biographer D. T. Max underreported Wallace's abuse. Of Max's account of their relationship, she tweeted, "That's about 2% of what happened." She said that Wallace kicked her, climbed up the side of her house at night, and followed her 5-year-old son home from school. Several scholars and writers noted that Max's biography did cover the abuse and did not ignore the allegations Karr later reiterated on Twitter.

I will now read Infinite Jest.

It was alright. People would spam random screenshots from the DFW interview. Maybe it was just me but all the authors and philosophers felt more novel because there hadn't been 1,000+ threads made about them yet. We also had these meme novels on google docs where everyone would write random stuff, was kind of dumb but it was fun
