  1. a 15 year old girl man. we are spending hundreds of millions of dollars harassing hot dog vendors with tax dollars because big balls got his ass beat by a 15 year old girl (and the story i've heard since is not a carjacking, but he was trying to pick her up)

    Big Balls had better never be able to live this down for the rest of his life

  2. Exactly this. If her work had the autistic cadence or was a little description dense, no one would have cared. It's the culmination of everything combined with zero self-awareness or willingness to actually improve. It's sad to watch. Hopefully one day she'll step back and actually work on her craft

  3. People often ask me "how do I make my burgers taste like fast food?" and the answer is nearly always add MSG.

    You've been convinced MSG is bad for you by racist propaganda, but you eat it all the time when you eat out and you love it, you just don't know you're eating it.

  4. Bonus: Thinking on it, I wonder if Audra's family and teachers treated her like she was brilliant and precocious, and years of ego stroking sort of set her up for the fall. When you're no longer a brilliant teenager publishing a book, you have to be an adult with skills and she never grew into that.

    Finally watching the Laura's video on Audra Winter, and oof, the Elizabeth Holmes girl-boss success with no product to grift-fail pipeline is real. I don't think she was grifting at first, but hubris led to it becoming a grift because there definitely wasn't a skill and product behind the confidence
