i was very confused.

Who do you consider a Great Author of the last 50 years or so (first well-known work after 1970)? I'd like to get a feel for who's who in modern literature. Any language/culture. Fiction only. in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

Just finished book 1 earlier this year, looking forward to getting to the rest of them.

I was looking for McCarthy ITT. I'm going to read Blood Meridian this year after listening to the audiobook years ago. I read The Road around the same time and struggled to get through it because it was so absolutely dreary. I get it obviously I just wanted to say that.

I would recommend also No Country For Old Men as I thought it was all the things McCarthy is amazing at but isn't so violent as the Judge's gang or as consistently hopeless as the world of The Road. It's paced like a thriller while still having an amazing villain. Talking about CM makes me think I should reread these books. I was just out of college when I read/listened to them.

It's so fucking funny how the right are literal NPCs with a culture war chip in their head that can be swapped out like a ps1 memory card for the next culture war point. in c/chapotraphouse@hexbear.net

Edit: to fix the formatting don't press enter on each line, instead add a double space on the end of each line and it'll look normal like mine does

thank you!

im sure it's being picked up now by right wing activists but from the kym article about it the beginning of it was a steam-chud made a curator page to just "not recommend" any game he found that SBI worked on and a SBI employee found it and posted about it on x/twitter. they claimed that steam should remove it for harassment. i can't read the proof and the poster is private now.

this is when the freeze-gamer rage really whipped up into a frenzy against the company. so you'd have to be a better internet forensic analyst than me to see who started RT'ing it into RW circles first.
