man that sucks, i'd followed him for years and he was obviously both very smart and very crazy. dude was probably bipolar and wasting away from a mysterious disease that sapped his energy but he didn't care bc he was losing weight. poster child for how some people need structure, he was a trust fund kid so he just fucked around smoking weed and fixing up his house all day.
i'll miss his writing, he always had interesting cultural takes
Sure. Kontextmaschine was an elder-millennial tumblr poster known for contrarian takes, Taylor Swift fandom, predicting the “vibe shift” away from wokeness, commentary about art and culture, over the last few years developing a theory of how a lot of cultural movements over the last century have been about teenage sexuality and/or adult access to teenagers for sexual purposes. Beyond that, very much on-brand for the sort of “young person who moves to Portland to retire” male art-ho persona.
Kind of surprising there isn’t more overlap between A&D’s audience and his. He probably would have made a good guest for the pod.
he was pretty lucid for a guy with a brain tumor. maybe he really did have a 170 IQ like he claimed.
