Notes from the Wired
This is a website where I write articles on various topics that interest me, carving out a bit of cyberspace for myself.
You shouldn't believe anything I talk about — I use words entirely recreationally.

Do not miss the spectacle that is the VTLeague. My money is on /hag/, they destroyed /vtwbg/.
EDIT: /hag/ did in fact not win, neither did /uuu/ :(

Truman Show (1988)
A classic—with an interesting philosophical theme: authenticity versus safety and comfort. However, it is more like an impulse than a serious exploration of the significance of metaphysical the truth of reality. 7/10.

Yellowstone
Yellowstone is a Western TV show about a group of cowboys protecting their ranch from land developers. I don’t recommend it, though it is better than your average TV show. I like the concept—it’s a kind of fresh mix between a cowboy story and a political drama. The story and characters are engaging and unique.
That said, there are quite a few things I disliked. None of the main characters are virtuous, which gets tiring after a while. I did appreciate the depiction of what I’d consider an approximation of an ideal love between two characters—especially after watching shows like Twin Peaks or Boardwalk Empire, where everyone seems to be cheating all the time.

Casino (1995)
I love movies that are stylized like that —- the old-school music playing, the voiceover narration —- the vibe. What do we learn? Never fuck a BPD women. 8.5/10.
