after days of grifters and con men at CES we stumbled upon the booth for VLC. they were all dressed as wizards and told us, "we have nothing to sell, we just decided to show up". i told them I'd been using their software to pirate media for 15 years and they said "keep doing that"

Joan Didion's white Corvette Stingray

Andy the Grasshopper, Friday, 25 April 2025 20:51 (one year ago)

Joan Didion is one of the best-photographed authors there's ever been. The rounds of pieces about the new book have been accompanied by some incredible shots.

I think that car was yellow, like the one Tuesday Weld drives in the film Play It as It Lays.

correction: the stingray was indeed bright california yellow (never seen a color photo of it), and is the very same car used in the aforementioned film

strays a bit from the usual mien of this thread but we have an ilxor who seems to have figured out how to live imo

i will say that i hit news exhaustion about halfway through trump's first term and ever since i've been consuming less and less news. now i'm basically not consuming any news at all beyond catching downstream waves from people's insta stories (that i quickly skip if they're trump/politics) and finding myself inevitably clicking on politics threads here now and again. i quit twitter/x years ago. i never check news sites. i filter out posts from the local paper or local news orgs i see on fb. maybe it's related to the smaller amount of news i see now, but i just can't read anything from any "news institution" and not choke on the self-regard and the obvious drama bait pov. nytimes copy is basically unreadable to me now. i saw some sponsored post facebook showed me from ap news the other day that was something like "it's possible to not have a purpose in your life and still be happy :)" and was like jesus christ i don't miss this kind of bullshit.

so yeah, i have absolutely no regrets. i feel like as a college educated man i was fed this idea that to not look at news was some kind of grave sin. i see that idea repeated from friends now and internally i'm just like "what absolute horseshit". it's just a total lie. i'm so much happier focused on things that actually matter. my life in front of me and the people irl i encounter daily. the present moment and the time and space that i occupy. i've seen enough of the world to know that empires run on blood and tragedy occurs every day. repeating that knowledge just doesn't serve me at all anymore. obviously different people have different tolerance levels when it comes to the news but i want to give a big smile and sparkling expression to anyone who may be thinking "do i really need to look at the washington post any more?" no. no, you don't. and it's very likely you'll be happier for it. there is a lot out there that is actually a good thing and virtuous to be ignorant of, to avoid completely, imho. it might have been quite different before the internet but those old adages about "staying informed" just don't track any more afaict.

i used to live like that for years, can definitely understand the appeal

now i'm back to reading two weekly papers (on paper that is)

internet journalism doesn't appeal but i do like following events of the world

but these are thoughts for another thread, i know
