“You have grown into a new fragility.”
-Brief Interviews With Hideous Men by David Foster Wallace
“You have decided being scared is caused mostly by thinking.”
-Brief Interviews With Hideous Men by David Foster Wallace
— Chuck Palahniuk (via focusophobic)
These distraction-oholics. These focus-ophobics.
Old George Orwell got it backward.
Big Brother isn’t watching. He’s singing and dancing. He’s pulling rabbits out of a hat. Big Brother’s busy holding your attention every moment you’re awake. He’s making sure you’re always distracted. He’s making sure you’re fully absorbed.
He’s making sure your imagination withers. Until it’s as useful as your appendix. He’s making sure your attention is always filled.
And this being fed, it’s worse than being watched. With the world always filling you, no one has to worry about what’s in your mind. With everyone’s imagination atrophied, no one will be a threat to the world.
— Lullaby by Chuck Palahnuik

Naked by David Sedaris Next on the reading train! Then hopefully a Palahnuik or Vonnegut that I can speed through…
FINALLY FINISHED THE GIRL WITH THE DRAGON TATTOO
it took me too long due to knowing the basic plot already, but still just-if-not-better than the film (I had to stop reading it before bed due to the intensity)
Now to watch the documentary on how it’s been an international phenomenon and re-watching the first in the Millennium trilogy (and I got the extended version for Christmas XD)
Then finally seeing it in theaters!! Super excited for Fincher’s take on it
It took me getting another book to finish it…

Hoping to read 100+ pgs of this today
I’m only a third of the way through and my goal is to be finished with it before December (while reading 2-3 other short books)
