there's a video on Youtube, an extensive and well researched one that talks about the similarities between Love Island and the Panopticon, maybe you'd like it : )) ...but on important note, your substack is the only subscription i have that i've probably read every article/essay of. I'm not a paid subscriber so i can only read ones that aren't paywalled. I'd love to pay for subscription if i ever move out of this country and get an international card/bank. All this to say that i really appreciate what you've done for my internet. I don't know how a girl from Kansas living in New York is so relatable to a girl born and living in Ethiopia, East Africa(one of the thing i like about the internet) but yeah you're one of my favorite humans on the internet.

thank u! yeah idk after acts of desparation I feel like I really spiraled. I know it sounds corny but books are magic, you know? like you're lending your mind to someone else's words so we can't be reckless with it
