I sometimes pretend to be normie to annoy people who wear non-normieness on their sleeves, but then when an actual normie thing like lambda school reactions leaks into my field of view I run away very fast. But I’m learning to live with them in the wild. The future is theirs.

Subcultures get so easily reified into communities these days. “I’m interested in __” slides into “I’m in __ community” really easily. I’m interested in a lot of things but in the “communities” of almost nothing.
“Communitization” is to culture as securitization is to finance.
