Take acid, cry, laugh, write worse. Also try Kindle.

A Twitter conversation between two writers offering contradictory advice about improving writing quality. Autumn Christian's response is an absurdist, psychedelic-tinged rant about taking acid and embracing existential nihilism about language itself. George Mack's reply is a humorous, grounded observation about how reading format affects self-perception of one's work. The contrast creates comedic tension between cosmic pessimism and practical pragmatism. Extracted text: Autumn Christian @teachrobotslove · 2h My best writing advice is to take a medium dose of acid and read your own writing. You'll realize how flat and disconnected your writing is from any reality, just disconnected symbols floating in a dead space. Once a thing is written down, it becomes copied into a simulacra that can never fully penetrate truth by design. Cry for an hour because your entire life is a lie. Then start laughing because ultimately, it's not really that serious. Now you're free. Now you can stop cannibalizing your enjoyment for the sake of "writing something important." Now you can just have fun. George Mack @george_mack · 17h The best writing advice I've found is to read your writing on Kindle. When I read my work in Google docs, I think I'm a genius and I need to say more. When I read my work on Kindle, I think I'm an idiot and I need to say less.
