The internet is flooded with 'narcissist' content that presents people with this personality disorder as supernatural monsters like vampires who must be destroyed.
But the most remarkable thing about much of these posts is that they appear to have been written by narcissists themselves.

Good morning. Man, today's Wordle is really hard.
Neguse absolutely cooked this corruption queen.
One part of getting old that I enjoy is the rediscovery of latter albums by beloved artists I initially rejected as a younger person, simply because I wasn't ready for their nuanced take on being alive beyond the prime of their lives.
Will always, always, ALWAYS root for this director.
Has Trump ever abused any of his brides worse
Was there a greater smokeshow than Janine in Ghostbusters II? The people who diss the sequel as an outright bad movie were obviously not paying attention to the scenes where she seduces Rick Moranis.
Those scenes might have taught me what it means to love a woman.
I said boo-urns….
This is what the movie WEAPONS was about.
The lesson here? Take better care of yourself, and invest in a decent headset.
Also, there's a monitor here playing a terrestrial broadcast. First time I've seen actual TV in years, and man did TV get so broken by society's pivot the Internet. Only words to describe it are IN SHAMBLES.
Sitting in a waiting room, waiting for my wife to get back from her post surgery check-up.
The elderly people here are either:
1) Very sick from years of poor self care (smoking, drinking)
2) Watching videos on their phones or tablets, with the sound on.
3) A combination of the two.
Upside - he’s handling it the way Bruce Campbell would, by telling us to stop whining and that he will be fine.
To be clear, I don't think the American film culture was ready to grapple with a film that deals with modern existential threats because we are currently embroiled in a culture war with people who want to re-litigate the existential threats that we already dealt with 50 years ago.
I read an interview where Aster was asked to describe EDDINGTON in one sentence and he said, “It’s a film about a data center being built in a small southwestern town.” It’s already aged better than many gave it credit for.
I think a lot of folks judged EDDINGTON way too harshly.
This is okay, so long as we remember to ask this question:
Is it avoidance or self care?
My therapist said to prioritize the latter and set limits on the former if you can’t find a way to transform it into self care as well.

Based on the speculator boom in the trading card market right now, this one could actually be valuable.
Being a 'geriatric millennial' has got me feelin' like
Some thoughts on the Berlinale, on film festivals as political spaces, and reviews of YELLOW LETTERS and SALVATION, the two films by Turkish directors that took Berlin's two top prizes. www.vulture.com/article/film...
True fact: In my Harry Knowles podcast, we had to bleep the name of a director who an AICN writer claimed was bribing Internet film critics during the 90s with sex workers. I had to bleep that director’s name to avoid legal trouble.
But yeah, I felt like bringing that up again now. For reasons.
I think there is a tendency to say Robert Johnson was cursed by a deal with Satan as opposed to saying he was cursed by systemic racism.
Blaming the devil, lets America and white people off the hook.

To those of you who have read and enjoyed any of my three books, the reason they wound up in your hands is that in 2004, Ann Godoff, the editing and publishing giant who founded Penguin Press, took a chance on me. She died yesterday at 76. I owe her more than I can say. She changed my life. >
I actually still have God. This didn’t need to be fixed
But if my new LLM that I named GLDN Calf fails, the entire economy will tank!
But now that people use AI to make ghoulish cartoons where ghosts of dead famous people hug the ghosts of other dead famous who starred in a movie or tv show with them, this low bar from the previous decade is starting to look much higher.
Guess folks see low bars and think we are playing limbo.
I am grateful that my wife was able to fight cancer three times, and emerge victoriously.
This world is on fire. I am so uncertain about many, many things in my life right now.
But at least I have this one positive thing to focus on right now, and that's all I need to keep going.
