  249. Luke tricking me into thirst-clicking an Anya Taylor-Joy thumbnail shows he understands his audience. It’s a great point about the lack of correlation between hedonism on TV and hedonism in real life, and it’s not really a new thing either. When I was a kid (mid 2000s) we had a show in Britain called Skins, which was effectively six series of 16 year-olds doing hard drugs, screwing everything that moved, crashing cars into canals etc. But what’s really odd is that the media coverage of it always emphasised how true to life it was, which couldn’t be less accurate to the lives of anybody I knew as a teenager in Britain. You see the same thing happening now for Americans with Euphoria. There’s an appetite for the opposite of this, and ironically I think Game of Thrones is the best example of that. The sordid society depicted in the show was originally written by GRRM as a spiteful caricature of the Middle Ages, and the sexual violence in particular was ultimately satirical in nature. The idea that it’s meant to be a realistic world is a misunderstanding of George’s preoccupation with the minutiae of government and political life, best typified by his famous anecdote about wanting to know what Aragorn’s tax policy would be after the events of LOTR. The book audience was sophisticated enough to understand this, and the essential layer of “irony” did survive the adaptation to TV for a few seasons. But ultimately the populism of the medium and vapidity of the showrunners and writers ensured that it ended up becoming exactly the moronic spectacle it was originally admired for not being. It’s a real shame, because I do love the books and did enjoy the TV show for the first three or four seasons.

  588. Wow, I have never actually thought about it that way. That's why I "love your channel"(that sounds cringe) I genuinely hear a different perspective compared to everything else I find online. The part about daydreaming your goals and not doing anything about them hit me like a truck. Thank you sir. In Serbia more than 90% are Orthodox Christians, but unfortunately out of those 90%, more than 70% is declaratively a Christian. Including me unfortunately, at least until recently. But anyway you can definitely feel Orthodox values tacitly permeate everything whether or not they consciously believe it or not. Thanks to you I've started going to Liturgies on Sundays (for the first time! A bit shameful to admit that I've never been on one knowing that I've grown up in an Orthodox country). I have mainly started going because of your advice in one of your livestreams where you've said:"If you don't believe in God just go to church. Go and tell them the truth, don't lie that you believe. Tell them that you don't believe but that you want to participate. Maybe it's Holy Spirit that have made you go there, but you don't believe it. Just go to church" I have listened to that advice. I am truly a non-resistant non-believer currently and I hope I will get to believe because "rationally thinking" many aspects of Orthodox Christianity have made me think and made sense like nothing else so far in my life. Though I'm not sure what is it that I would need to feel or think to be able to say that I now believe. Would be awesome to hear your conversion story. What was the point after you've said:"I now believe!"? Was it a sudden change one morning after a chain of steps you've taken recently? Or was it more of a gradual convincing where you've realized that Orthodox and generally Christianity is right about almost everything. (The second part is something I'm inclining towards, yet I don't think I would be able to say, without lying, that I believe in God because of that) It's "funny" and sad at the same time that you, a guy from another continent, made me go to an Orthodox church while living literally 10 walking minutes away from the Orthodox church. I would say that the writing on your website named "Modern Freedom means being a Slave to Impulses" have truly moved me. Since reading that, which I have translated in Serbian and have read to my friends, since reading that text I have: Stopped watching porn completely, almost completely removed cooming(not all the way there yet unfortunately...), stopped drinking soda and cut out "the Internet" as a means to entertain myself. For the first time since I was a kid without the internet I get bored and am realizing the power of it which you have talked about. Though daydreaming was the part that switched places with "internet entertainment" and have been struggling with that since. This put a whole different perspective both on Freedom and on getting bored. I truly want to thank you for your writings and things you do. Thank you.
