Every music genre is still alive, they've just been turned into niche internet communities like everything else.

That's just "fiction" though

Like even if you take the literal probable definition of "I like YA but want more sex and violence", that is ALSO just fiction

I think the implication here is that YA authors and the community they coddle are so invested the idea of YA that as they age out of it, they're just making up a new Older-YA genre to reverse-engineer a rationalization for themselves as to why they're still reading YA

Just thinking about it but pretty much everyone in catch22 is under 30 except maybe the majors and up. Great Gatsby protag is 29
Invisible man, catcher in the rye, etc are all way under 30

I'll check under the volcano but they're probably all just over 30


Edit lol Humbert Humbert is 36 at the start of the book

"Memory" has a really interesting premise. Where we've had Taken, Taken on a Plane, Taken on a Train, and so on, here Liam Neeson is playing Taken but he's r-worded

regular fiction can have depictions of bad things in them without being an endorsement, unlike YA

Wasn't it like two weeks ago that someone was viral-tweeting about how sexist the men in Gravity Falls and Adventure Time are to the women, and that those shows' writers should Do Better because kids watch those shows

(all in reference to preteen boy characters being awkward around preteen girl characters)

all that indie stuff became car/apple ad music and then merged with the mumford and sons stomp clap garbage which was in turn absorbed by imagine dragons. the world jsut gave up on making new rock music. A great place to read about this trend is in the works of mark fisher

Jack White is making Rock and Roll into some sort of cargo cult religion/lifestyle brand.

On the topic of records. Don't know if it was entirely because of covid but records and anything related has gotten so expensive. A friend was looking into getting a record, and I had to do a double take when I googled some of the prices.

One of Jack White’s companies is releasing an edition of Prince’s canceled Camille album and as needless as that is, it’s still pretty cool from a music nerd standpoint.
