DFW said this is water btw

Calling my Substack Rorschach Fest cus that’s funny isn’t it

Renaming my Substack (no one cares!)—is "Rorschach’s Guess" a good name? Rorschach’s Guest? Rorschach’s Quest??? Something else? MetaNarrative?

Wrote something new—it's about how debate bros have ruined literally everything and emboldened the extreme right. Think Konstantin Kisin, Chris Williamson, Jordan Peterson etc. Hope you like it x open.substack.com/pub/stefanrh...

It would be so fucking funny if Trump was brought down by international economic sanctions

Might stay up and watch the Grammys cus Lana’s not nominated so my heart won’t be crushed

We really forgot about Julia by SZA didn’t we?? What an astonishing banger

People are really like: I support mass deportations, nativism and the great replacement theory but I’m absolutely not right wing

I feel like all those people who made loads of money by critiquing the left probably need to pick a side now

The traitors is great but we don’t need a shit cover of tainted love do we

We haven’t had a lesbian anthem since Silk Chiffon have we

Joni Mitchell biopic has got to be in the works! Who’s playing her?? Probs two different actresses but who!

So many hot gay actors around now! Matt Bomer! Jonathan Bailey! And I guess that’s it!

The thing is transphobia slips into homophobia very quickly doesn’t it

Are Australians on this app because I want to shag all of them

Best non fiction writers are DFW, Joan Didion, John Jeremiah Sullivan, Jia Tolentino, Isaiah Berlin and Zadie Smith

All the things she said by Tatu means a lot to me

Babygirl wasn’t great tbh

Is The Sopranos as good as everyone says?! Should I watch it??

Finally watching The Substance and my god…

Going to the gym for the first time in my life. I’m so anxious

Decided this year I wanna be the kind of guy who wears a proper scent and not just like Dove deodorant

Love Jia Tolentino and this interview on Talk Easy is really excellent! open.spotify.com/episode/7vHA...

To this day no one has made a better music video than frozen by Madonna

Electric Six are American???

Christopher Hitchens wouldn’t have gone on Triggernometry

I’m writing a piece about the alt right and my god watching Konstantin Kisin videos on YouTube has been awful

This is really good btw: open.spotify.com/episode/0sCt...

Something I wrote a while back - it’s about a fascinating, ambitious project which sought to answer the question: how do we go about communicating with people living ten thousand years from now? open.substack.com/pub/stefanrh...

Why hasn’t The Secret History been made into a film yet???

My dream job is whatever Ana Matronic does in Scissor Sisters

Interesting podcast about Replika (an AI “partner” app). I wrote a piece about this a while back if you’re interested: open.spotify.com/episode/3A0G...

Wrote this about my dad's time in a cult in Oregon in the ‘80s — hope you enjoy it! open.substack.com/pub/stefanrh...

Massive Attack w/ Hope Sandoval from Mazzy Star how on earth did I forget about this song x open.spotify.com/track/2BndJY...

"Almost degrading" is quite a generous assessment tbh. www.thetimes.co.uk/article/a-fa...

post a PERFECT album from the 90’s that isn’t nirvana, pearl jam, soundgarden, or alice in chains

Thanks Hunger Magazine for commissioning this piece! It's about a fascinating study that began in the early '90s in Bristol and is still going strong to this day – spanning three generations. Its impact, both in the UK and worldwide, truly can't be overestimated x hungermag.com/art-culture/...

So I made a bet with one of my best friends about how many people if you just randomly asked them on the street if they knew who Joni Mitchell was. I estimated 8/10 and he thought it would be like 1/10. Who’s right? x
