Listening to the section about Esther looking at herself in the mirror shot my mind to Plath’s poem “Purdah”. The narrator of “Purdah” is introduced with, “I smile”. She “Gleam(s) like a mirror,” and her “Eye veil is a concatenation of rainbows”. I always read the rainbows as the prismatic surroundings taken into and multiplied by the narrator’s thoughts. Now I feel like this can also be read as a bruised eye, which lends to the violent patriarchal theme of the poem. Similarly, the narrator shatters “the chandelier of air” just as Esther shatters the mirror.
how sad, a blog about a video game sequel or joe rogan blubbering about conspiracy theories will attract millions, intellectual topics like this rarely exceed tens of thousands
Hey, don't talk s**t about video games! They can be intellectual too. And books can be lowbrow as well. Just play Pathologic 2 or The Witness for example.

My sentiments, precisely. It seems the general desire to cultivate some semblance of intellect has long been dwindling amongst the masses.
