  1. Is he like just now seeing this?
  2. Finished it the other week. Narrator somehow nailed how I always hear Ignatius is my head. It's a great pick for family holiday viewing
  3. @SydneyCarton Did you end up watching Perfume?
  4. Imagine being a billionaire who bent the knee at the first sign of aggression from Trump and watching that press conference. D y i n g
  5. Unreal lmao
  6. This is def his breakout year. I don't think I've heard a bad or poorly written song from him. Whole catalogue of socially conscious folk bangers.
  7. Jesse Welles has been killing it for a couple of years now. Guy is an incredibly talented musician/singer/songwriter
  8. She's young; give her time
  9. You'd think the business leaders of America would have something to say about government statistics disappearing
  10. One positive about listening to books over reading them is that you can listen to Morning Glory Milking Farm while out and about and no one can call you a pervert
  11. I was an English major at one time and ended up with a degree in linguistics (not that I ever did anything with it lmao). I find the enjoyment of reading Nabokov myself versus listening to Jeremy Irons read Nabokov to me to both be beautiful and fulfilling ways to consume Nabokov's work. They are just different, and ultimately they enhance each other. Maybe my internal narrator just sucks. 😕
  12. I guess my question (and probably the source of my apparent insecurity about the concept) is this then: what actually makes it different? What am I losing or missing out on by listening to a novel instead of reading it? I've done both. I've been incredibly touched by both. What is the point of it being a "hill to die on" to quote our conversation stater, if not to striate media consumption? (Yes I know he's not being entirely serious there)
  13. The BBC series of Jonathan Strange & Mr. Norrell is also quite good, but not up to the novel's standards imo Fair enough. $4 on Amazon
