Nu Slackerism as in don’t grasp so tightly to the world, stop straining to achieve status, make it easier for yourself to gratefully live your actual ~ Authentic, even~ daily experience

@ClickingSeason Weird. I just wrote this and immediately read this tweet on the TL

The Nu Slackerism recapitulates this idea that you need to keep your desire to Be Seen in check. Where “selling out” was merely uncool back then, it’s now an existential matter. Authenticity is real and we need to protect it both in what we allow in and what we “put out there”

In all seriosity tho if you think about cartooning/caricature , where you exaggerate forms into simple shapes , you’re going to draw “Racist” images . & that’s kind of analogous to thought too. There are contexts where simplified , exaggerated images pertain.

They’re not doing woke 2.0.

Woke 1 was 2012-2018. It was tumblr, Trayvon, triggleypuff.

Woke 2 was BLM, the ban-waves , covid.

What they’re doing now is dialing back 2.0 somewhat as tho what came directly before is the default.

I caught an episode of Louie season 1 (2010) and it really brought me back to that proto-woke period. It’s otherwise good but he’d glibly throw in “Whites are obviously shitty privileged douchebags” clapter bait. I remember back then thinking man there are a lot of young idiots who are grabbing onto this stuff bc it’s such an easy way to signal aspirational cultural affiliation .

@peggyflanagan Your party encouraged this armed, deranged man to break the law and put himself in mortal danger pursuant to those crimes.

[Bob Phrog @Bob_Phrog]

Also tbf while I agree with the sentiment here, there are musicians still operating in that indie tradition, it’s just not hitting receptors & think it’s mostly bc they’re not speaking to the moment. They’re like hunkered down in their own spaces, repeating the same moves year after year

@sasimons Maron has always been a neurotic, self-serving creep. That was his entire bit. He was only ever funny to the extent he made fun of himself for it. He’s just butthurt bc no one likes his podcast anymore
