Directing the Herd Social media platforms don’t produce a common public; they produce competing sub-publics, each with its own sense of what everyone knows.

For @thedriftmag.com I wrote about social control, digital infrastructure, and what passes for a public sphere in our society www.thedriftmag.com/directing-th...

I think the healthiest thing I've ever come up with in my fight game career is the phrase

"just be nasty"

At all moments the solution is to just be nasty

Did I fuck up defending vs a set up? Could have been nasty

Drop a combo? Could have been nasty

A Man and His Meat Boy kibble went viral. Here, John Paul Brammer explains why you'll have to pry his dry, loose meat from his cold, dead hands.

In my latest for Playboy, I wrote about meat, masculinity, and "boy kibble," the trend of men eating a pack of unseasoned ground beef for dinner. I argue it's the perfect meal to illustrate the isolation and nihilism in our ultra-capitalist system www.playboy.com/read/lifesty...

I've mostly taken to quiet resignation at this point but I still do get a little sad when some of our oldest slang ends up breaking containment

black slang generates and aggregates meaning across decades of folkways and lived experiences. way before y'all saw the gladiator sandals on the innanet, we were noticing that every dude manning a grill had 'em on. taking it out of context erases that accumulated power.

That's Not What Unc Means You’d never know the meaning of unc or its origins in black culture if you looked to mainstream media.

I won’t say who it was but I was playing a Ky and my hitbox fell mid combo in a spot that is essentially undroppable. They were churning DP on hit. There’s no hope for them.

Been thinking about this sentence and how people who are on the outside looking in miss the point. "This game sucks" is very much in the same vein as saying hi to a close friend by calling them a "bitch"

There's a familiarity and appreciation there that's lost on 3rd parties

it’s so funny that we call them “normies” but if you have like a 2-minute convo with an offline person, they’ll start telling you about how god turned the muppets gay because we took prayer out of school or some shit
