  • Pig Slop

    Establishing a thesis for Pig Slop

  • Back to the Slophouse

    I was a LeapFrog, you were 3 years old.

  • Technocapital Cuck

    Humans are the unthought-of subordinates, the neglected third wheel to the acceleration of technology and capital. The saddest cuck in the poly relationship. Watching technology and capital fuck while being invited to watch dejectedly on a Temu plastic migrant-labour-made stool in the corner of the room. Allowed to speak, but both technology and capital are…

  • Phonewatching

    Anyone else ever been jarred from what someone else has as their phone wallpaper? I have a bad habit of looking at other people’s phone screens on transit. I’m fascinated by it. Little glimpses into people’s lives.

What would your mirror reflection look like if it showed your media body? Your media mass index (MMI) will swerve higher than 25. You are obese on entertainment—your consumption is violence.

  • Seasonal Depression

    Is there a vitamin that can give me the sensation of rain. The equivalent of what vitamin D is for the sun. My seasonal depression seems to always point to the want that the weather is not gloomy or cold enough.

  • The Publisher in the Age of Digital Reproduction

    There is a foreboded waning and changing role of the publishing industry in the age of digital reproduction—the role of file formats like .pdf and .epub, and the ideological nature of what happens to a book once it becomes digital. How does publishing continue to justify itself when file sharing becomes so frictionless and easy,…
