- claytongulick 3mo agoI'd really love to read an article that actually talks about how to survive in a Louisiana swamp. This article is written in the style that I find particularly tedious - long winded overly descriptive character portraits. More of a novelette than an article. I don't think it's an attention span thing for me, it's more that as I try to read it, all I can think of is how the author is purposefully adding to the word count to drive those ad impressions. I have to try to sort through endless exposition and excruciating detail to try to learn something interesting, all the while being fed an endless diet of ads. And tracking cookies. And difficult tracking options. And pop-ups. No wonder people just want to use AI to read and summarize things. My AP English teacher would have flunked me for writing like this.

- kashunstva 3mo agoIf it’s Louisiana, it’s not a “swamp”; it’s a bayou. I spent summers at my grandparents in southern Louisiana, a lot of it poking around in places described in TFA; but never heard it called a swamp back there. We were on the bayou.
