@gregoryblotnick I hope in 2052, when Boston next stages the world cup, you end up with Ireland and Scotland based there. I'll be 67, and I'll very much enjoy hearing about it. I think they'll have to make a lot of bath-tub gin to meet the demand.

@stoneandthestar :) I mean, I am no fan of his, but yes, there is also a tier even further below, and yes... accessibility is one of the most patronizing and stultifying trends we've ever had to endure. It's also extremely insulting to the working classes.

@stoneandthestar Also the gatekeeping argument is maddening, given the slick propylactic solipsistic style has been the house style for 40 years, and its purveyors literally are the gatekeepers, all the while insisting they're revolutionary and being oppressed by elite gatekeepers.

@stoneandthestar Absolutely and categorically agree. There's a slow shift, but only because so many people are sick to their back teeth of the emperor's new clothes guff, and have decided to just go 'fuck it, these people are wank puffins.' Vuong's work, for instance, has met this critical mass.

@moniza_hossain I would definitely shade Vuong, he's an astonishingly bad writer.

@ethantgibson Can someone please just give him enough money to stop larping as an intellectual? This weird valorizing of Kaur, Vuong et al. needs to end!

@Chronodendron I remember, at uni, being told that how many men write women was a clear demonstration of misogyny, but then we were assigned Lessing's The Golden Notebook, which is fun, but dear me she can't write men; we're all either cash machines, or sex addled dreamers of a remembered teat.

@lorileistorm I'd hardly call Donnybrook 'nice.' Its a bit like the nothing from the never ending story, albeit with the ancestral memory that someone had Craic there once, a thousand years ago.
