I'm not even abstaining out of snobbery like I simply know that TikTok would ruin my life. that would be a wrap on "my brain." I recognized this immediately and never touched the stuff
As a millennial I'm convinced that if I watch a single tiktok I will instantly crumble into a fine dust

Okay, so: once you’ve nicked £90m in assorted crown jewels from a national museum, I think it’s safe to say you no longer fall into the “petty crime” category even if you haven’t previously been noteworthy in your field.

Movie/tv/music criticism is unbearable to listen to these days because poptimism has somehow convinced everyone that saying *anything* critical at all is some kind of impermissible snobbery. But lots of things suck! Bring back some snobbery, I say.

The anti-AC snobbery (while not being anti-heat) must derive from a Northern European bias.

Your reminder that audiobook snobbery is ableist as fuuuuuck
Amol Rajan doesn’t like audiobooks. They’re “lazy”.
It’s hard not to be cross, sometimes.

We're bringing back literary snobbery. Genre fiction doesn't count as real books. Especially not romance.

The idea that there's a level of film knowledge that will make your criticism more correct than anyone else's is bullshit. Knowledge of film history/technique can give context and help articulate for the reader how/why a film works or doesn't, but so can...knowing the source material.
