Was he right? In Ghosts of my Life he talks about how music culture is slowing down and now that we are in the xth wave of things like dubstep, jungle, phonk without new unique subcultures breaking off its hard to say he is wrong.

Why aren't zoomers and gen A forming their own things?

I miss this lil nigga like you wouldn't believe. i'd wanna see his writings on streamers, current rap, current cinema (Barbie especially), Youtube restrictions and censorship
Who are some living and currently active writers/"bloggers" most similiar to Mark Fisher?

>"On the contrary, this episode helped me to see that it is not my aversion to sex that is ‘sick’, it is sex itself that is pathological."

>"Sex IS abuse. And if you think this is just one of my wacky theoretical reversals, at least pause to reflect on the fact that I have support from the most unexpected, most ‘rational’ source on this: Kant. Kant believed that sex inevitably entailed treating the other person as a means to an end. Since this was contrary to one of his formulations of moral duty – the idea that we should treat people as an end in themselves, never as means to an end – he was in a quandary when it came to sex, which he rightly thought of as inherently pathological. The only way that he could get round this – he couldn’t very well declare leave it at that, saying sex to be intrinsically wrong – was to evoke the marriage contract. Sex is only valid within marriage, Kant argued, because within marriage we have contracted out our organs for the use of the spouse, just as they have done the same for us, and so the categorical imperative can be suspended.

>"Kant’s view is much closer to the truth IMHO than those who maintain that sex is ‘healthy’."

Is he right?

>Dionysian imitatio is the influential literary method of imitation as formulated by Greek author Dionysius of Halicarnassus in the first century BCE, which conceived it as the rhetoric practice of emulating, adaptating, reworking and enriching a source text by an earlier author. It marked the beginning of the doctrine of imitation, which dominated the Western history of art up until 18th century, when the notion of romantic originality was introduced.

This changes everything, turns out that the idea of originality was a blip and copying and pasting in art was the norm for centuries. Someone should have told mark fisher this.

i hold what
you gave me
it haunts me
daily
time flickers
out of joint

ready to anoint

dead futures
that
arrive at once
looping like
distorted floor
boards

>‘Left-wing’ Twitter can often be a miserable, dispiriting zone. Earlier this year, there were some high-profile twitterstorms, in which particular left-identifying figures were ‘called out’ and condemned. What these figures had said was sometimes objectionable; but nevertheless, the way in which they were personally vilified and hounded left a horrible residue: the stench of bad conscience and witch-hunting moralism. The reason I didn’t speak out on any of these incidents, I’m ashamed to say, was fear. The bullies were in another part of the playground. I didn’t want to attract their attention to me.
