Date: May 7th, 2024 7:54 PM Author: Motley sanctuary it's not bad, imo, but not really to my taste. he has that tendency (commoner of americans) to avoid imagery that isn't taken from mundane life: no flights of fancy or anything to break up the arranged tedium. no color, no texture. he uses specific names and places, i assume, because he's not really evoking anything. all the mentions of korea are tiresome, for instance, because he isn't calling to mind the place or his time with the words that surround the references, but relying on the explicit reference to set the scene. far less is he doing anything interesting with the place or his experiences. it would've been better if he made up a place, left it unnamed, and explored his thoughts and feelings about it in more universalizing ways. it's about painfully specific things and yet it's about nothing. the trend is bigger than him and my tastes are weird in their own ways, but it's always struck me as if someone read frost or stevens and took all the wrong lessons, distilled them down through generations of toothless poetry, and told students this was how americans write. again though, it's not bad, and if i saw any of it in a journal, i'd flip forward without thinking much of it at all, positively or negatively. that said, i'm glad the board has never found anything i've written. of all the things to have associated with his outted moniker, that is rather unique to him, and i imagine it sucks. |

Date: May 7th, 2024 7:59 PM Author: french jap i didn't make fun of him for years and repeatedly and earnestly encouraged him to take a step back or change his moniker and stop being so easy to identify. it was only seeing him lash out at me and others, including outing, that i lost sympathy for him.
i know we're in agreement that his condition and upbringing probably traumatized him and that gives me some empathy. but at some point an adult man of ordinary intelligence has to take responsibility for his own behavior. lashing out and hurting innocents because he can't resist coming to the source of the mocking/defaming/threatening is unacceptable for someone his age, and he deserves all the mockery he gets. he's lucky more people don't fuck with his irl. |

Date: May 7th, 2024 8:03 PM Author: Motley sanctuary i agree he's gone way too far lately and doesn't deserve any sympathy for, e.g., going after lynn so viciously for literally no reason. my point is more that i can't think of another poaster with irl fiction tied to his moniker. it's a weird additional harm to being outted i've never considered, and it's a good argument for anyone to only write pseudonymously if they publish anything irl.
