People say MTV went downhill when it started leaning heavily into reality shows. And while that's fair - a MUSIC television network should generally feature MUSIC - some of those reality shows are the reason I had any awareness of LGBTQ folks growing up. (Yes, I was very sheltered and isolated as a kid.)

I love Survivor, and I would love to discuss the season as it airs, but sadly I have to avoid fan spaces when a season is airing, because spoilers about the boot order almost always manage to leak out. Even though typically moderators are good at removing blatant spoilers, once the season is spoiled, you can kind of tell what is going to happen because SO MANY people will mysteriously have a "good feeling" about the future winner, or they'll predict that some random player is going to make the finals when only two episodes have aired. Even if you don't read a spoiler that says "XYZ wins" or "ABC is in the final 3," you kind of absorb these spoilers by osmosis because so many people are predicting the same thing.

Don't watch espionage movies if you are having a Paranoid Episode. In fact, stay away from television entirely in that position. Trust me on this.

"they" told me to say this

I wish The Muppet Show revival had given Sweetums a song number.

I get that the internet was - and still is - a refuge for misfits and nerds. But I think maybe due to that, parts of fandom culture enables and even encourages bullying victims to gather together and dwell on things that happened years and years ago and never get over it in a very unhealthy way.

idk, every time i run across a piece of media that celebrates how amazing the power of storytelling is, it always feels self-congratulating and almost masturbatory to me.

examples include The Thousand and One Nights, Neverending Story, The Sandman, Kingkiller Chronicles, etc, etc, etc.

These days I see much more gleeful bullying in the present than dwelling on bullying in the past.

Sometimes people who read a lot of fiction say people who don’t read much fiction are lacking some essential element of humanity. To me, that’s almost as offensive as when people say you’re lacking essential humanity if you didn’t take the right college classses.

I wish musicians still made cool music videos and at least put them on Youtube, but I think that era has largely passed.

A lot of people do lack imagination, but people acting like reading fiction is the only way to show that, or a necessary component of that, are ironically lacking imagination about how else that kind of thing can manifest

Seems pretty sensible to me.

Even as a fan of spy stories and not someone who is especially prone to paranoia, those “big conspiracy” thrillers are some of my least favourite. They tend to leave me both anxious and unsatisfied.

Personally, I’ve learned to avoid post-apocalyptic stories when I’m doing poorly depression-wise. I find that they nudge me in an even worse direction.
