9/10 OP pic : )

also New Sincerity died in music and was replaced by movements just as bad so there's probably not much to look forward to in literature either

It'd be cool to see people start acting like Descartes and philosophy, discarding all of the shit of the 20th century, and starting anew from where the 19th left off, instead of being restricted with the ideas from the modernists and postmodernists. And I say that as a person whose favorite author is Gaddis.

Why stop at Descartes? I consider myself a neomedievalist. It's time to go all the way back to the Scholastics and the medieval romances. Or maybe we should go all the way back to the ancients.

Maybe we've come to the End, and what awaits us is going back to the Beginning.

You ever watch Star Trek TNG or DS9?
Some of those episodes that took a peek at life on Earth gave a sort of vague pastoral paradise. Peeling potatoes for your little restaurant. Picking grapes in a small vineyard of your own. What else would people do with such advanced technologies? When work becomes play.

Not in my lifetime, unfortunately. All I'm gonna have is a third world war, the slow and painful decline of the Catholic church, the collapse of China, the internet getting shittier by the day, everyone trying to get further into escapism through video games and virtual reality instead of taking notice of the actual world around them, etc.

All while I run off and join a monastery to peel potatoes for my little brewery, picking grapes in a small vineyard of the monastery's own, praying, bible-ing, etc.

This is from Towelin's Magnum opus:

That night Haley Joel Osment was alone in the apartment talking to Julia on Gmail chat. Julia was 28 and married and lived in Georgia. She was friends with an editor of a magazine that had published Haley Joel Osment’s poetry. Haley Joel Osment’s cell phone vibrated. It was Dakota Fanning. Haley Joel Osment moved his cell phone to his ear. Dakota Fanning said her mother found out about him by reading a blog post’s comments section where he had said things about his first visit to New Jersey including when they screamed bad words across the Delaware River. “I think she knows you’ve stayed here overnight and that you’re 22,” said Dakota Fanning. “She already googled you a lot I think.”

“What’s going to happen?” said Haley Joel Osment.

“I don’t know. I can’t leave here. She won’t let me leave.”

“Is she calling the police?” said Haley Joel Osment.

“No, I don’t think she will. I have to go. She’s here.”

“I don’t know what to say,” said Haley Joel Osment on Gmail chat to Julia. He said Dakota Fanning’s mother found out about him. He said Dakota Fanning was banned from the internet. “Oh no,” said Julia. “What is her mother saying, that Dakota is forbidden to contact you?”

“I don’t know. She believes everyone on the internet is a rapist.”

“Would it help for you to get in touch with the mother? Tell her you are a nice boy and not a rapist. Go kidnap Dakota. I want to help. I like a good scheme. Where is the dad?”

“The dad is good. Should I tell you these things? I’m confused.”

“It’s okay to tell me,” said Julia.

“Should I though,” said Haley Joel Osment.

“That’s the least of your problems,” said Julia.

“Yes you should,” she said. “I am your friend, don’t worry.”

“The dad is depressed,” said Haley Joel Osment. “He lives in Albany. They separated but he visits sometimes. He wanted to start an earthworm farm in the basement and Dakota’s mother got angry at him. Dakota’s mother referred to him as ‘suicidal.’”

“Can Dakota live with him?” said Julia.

“No. He said he doesn’t want any responsibility of taking care of Dakota.”

“Many dads are depressed,” said Julia.

“Dakota said her mom said ‘why doesn’t anyone in this family have emotions?’ Everyone in her family is depressed except the mom.”

“That’s why the mom is insane,” said Julia. “If you aren’t depressed you’re insane.”
