David Foster Wallace: the literary genius who makes math errors an art form! 🤓✍️ Apparently, in "Infinite Jest," math mistakes are as intentional and meaningful as the #footnotes. Let's just say he needed a calculator more than a dictionary. 🤷♂️📚

Subsidized time is coming. #InfiniteJest
At least he didn't sell the rights to the gulf. #InfiniteJest
I personally applaud John’s use of “THE YEAR OF THE DEPEND ADULT UNDERGARMENT” as a chapter header here.
Also:
> There’s no good reason to even show “Gulf of America” in parentheses outside the US. We’re the ones with the stupid name change on the books, so we’re the ones who get stuck seeing the stupid name.

which to read next after #infinitejest?
Anybody else on here ever read #InfiniteJest? One core idea of the story is that we are victims of our desire for entertainment. In the novel, the US and Canada and Mexico merge to become the Organization of North American Nations. The president is a former lounge singer and B movie actor germaphobe. Corporations buy the naming rights for the years. I'm really not enjoying this timeline.

Too many Americans now care more about being entertained by politics than having a healthy civic society. Both sides feed off this element in the other. The billionaires egg it on cause they know only a functional government can constrain them from serving themselves in ways that end up harming the rest of us. #InfiniteJest
A Black Girl’s Thoughts on Infinite Jest by David Foster Wallace
i feel like James Incandenza’s films really prepared me for David Lynch’s Rabbits (2002) https://youtu.be/drjQfQtv2BQ
oh my god the aliens hysteria is now spreading to even the brightest ppl i was not expecting. jesus fuck. i stg we are just living in #infinitejest world now. this is so sad
After an epic 9-month trip though #InfiniteJest I am amazed that after two days I am 30% through Dan Simmons' #hyperion. As good as it is, it seems #books that are not Infinite Jest are much easier to read...
finished IJ last night and now i'm watching a couple of videos to wrap my brain around it. one person summed it up perfectly by saying "it's not about the plot"
