      Ok, so, here's a thing: saw the new trailer for Ready Player One last night. I... am as tired of that bullshit as everyone else. But I had an errant strand of thought: WHAT IF they fixed some of the book's issues

      like, I read that book in... whatever, 2011 and sort of enjoyed it. Everything, obviously, about fucking nostalgia culture and male nerd entitlement has aged... well, like the wet fart that it is

      BUT. And this is a big but. I don't even actually think it'll happen. But what if this movie has the ounce of criticism and self-reflexive imagination that the book was missing? Is it possible there's a universe where this is an interesting movie?

      I seriously don’t think even Spielberg could polish that turd. And I kind of don’t want the movie to do well because I don’t want Ernest “Anagram for ‘incel’” Cline to have validation.

          Like, this jackass got books published and optioned into movies by making pop culture references with no meaning to them and calling it writing. Meanwhile Flannery O’Connor just got lupus and died. makes me choke on bile.

          I’m convinced that if he had one more rejection letter, he would have given up and become a lifer on r/incels writing about fake geek girls and whatever bullshit. But nooooooo, some publisher just HAD TO TAKE PITY on him and get the shit made into a MOVIE.

          Here’s a link to the poem. Whether you read it or not is your choice, but don’t say I didn’t warn you.
