RE: culture, my only hope is that more artists are hoarding their info and developing offline after seeing all the stunted careers online. There is a dark forest theory to online spaces, Discords, etc away from the mainstream too. Otherwise I would say that culture will forever be an information war fought across our fractured political matrix. Tankies vs soycels, etc. Or what Josh Citrella calls e-deologies. Dimes Square may have the biggest bloc thanks to New York magazine.
ding ding ding!!! i mean, this is very true. i'd be very curious to know how much, say, covid and the divorcing of people from people in ways is partly to blame. or something? i think the days of intellectuals getting together and sharing in salon-style atmospheres transformed to Discord-ish spaces (or substacks!) which does and doesn't help people. that reminds me: i've been meaning to start a monthly zoom "hang" and this seems like a good reason to get that going.
