Thinking about how each protagonist in the Fallout TV show believes themselves to be the last true American because each of them is a different kind of American myth. Is being an American all about getting to be the lone gunslinger who exists in a world without rules or limitations? Is it about being controlled by a corporation in a hyper-consumptive society that only gives you the illusion of free choice? Is it about being in control of such overwhelmingly dominant military technology that you believe your power grants you the responsibility of being the world's moral authority? Let's do some drugs about it.

we are in dire need of some new media trend. we've done pirates, we've done cowboys; we've gone through two whole zombie revivals. aliens and space themes have basically been a constant since at least the 1950s, as have robots and evil AIs. we went pretty heavy on vampires for a while. we've also done dinosaurs, ninjas, musicals, wizards, sea creatures, ancient rome, ancient egypt, middle ages out the wazoo, entirely too much world war II, we're currently overdosing on our superhero phase, we've done monsters (misunderstood), monsters (radioactive), fake guy in the real world, real guy travels to fake world, caves & mining, vikings, what if you were really small, genre parody as a genre, sand, New York, time travel, something racist goes down in the jungle, neurodivergent detective, buddy cops, crooked cops, gangsters, bank heists in particular, kid has powers, revolt against the corporate world, portals, social insects, dragons, the British, global apocalypse, martial arts, roadtrip as self-discovery, Jesus, clones, clowns, babysitting goes wrong, demonic possession, ghosts of all kinds, talking animals, fucking with the stock market, restaurant ownership, dwarves, planes, and spies. where do we go from here. what's our next big thing

the thing about players like Matt Rempe is that there are so many people who would rather argue that there's a place for him and other guys like him in the league instead of agree that it will always be better and more interesting when gifted players are able to play. and they can argue that other guys are just as bad--but so what if they are? let's be worried about preventing all of it instead of making excuses for why your guy should also be able to take guys out.

I will always be more interested in guys like Quinn Hughes or Cale Makar or Jake Guentzel or Cole Caufield being able to play without having to worry some dude with a propensity for head hits is going to take them out.

Personally, I'd like Sid to have the 108 games he missed between 2011-2012. I'd like him to have the playoff series instead of the concussion he got from a Jacob Trouba hit to the head. I'd like Paul Kariya to have finished his career on his terms and without huge gaps where games should be. I'd like Paul Kariya to have gone to the Olympics in Japan instead of taking a cross-check to the face from Gary Suter. I'd like Hörny to have made that magical playoff run with the Cats instead of having to retire because of a bad Daniel Sprong hit. guys get accidentally taken out by friendly fire all the time. they shouldn't also have to worry about a hit ending their career.

it's not even about "clean" vs. "dirty." if you've played 96 minutes, your injury count should not be that high. who cares if it's legal if it's giving dudes TBIs? genuinely. because that's what concussions are.

some day, every single one of these guys will retire. long or short careers. by choice or by force. with bodies at various levels of health. the fans and the league should care a lot more about those guys than they do.

the only thing Mark Lazerus got wrong in that article was that Jacob Trouba and Tom Wilson had learned their lesson about dangerous hits. I'll believe that when it hasn't happened in the last four months.

here's one study on the quality of life of 76 Swedish hockey players who retired due to concussion. that's the shit we should be caring about.

"But why would you want to imagine, read or write about a relationship that wasn't healthy, good or desirable to you personally?"

I genuinely don't know how to explain the concept of fiction to you.
