HBO crime drama from the 2000s. Unlike most crime dramas which neatly cover one case per episode, The Wire covers one case per season, allowing it to tell a sprawling and complex story of various societal institutions and the web of players within them. It candidly portrays organized crime and bureaucratic dysfunction from the perspective of criminals, detectives, lawyers, politicians, journalists, etc to advance its central theme of the conflict between individuals and institutions. This was originally recommended to me by erraticcompendium on the basis that I love The Sopranos (with which the comparisons are pretty self-evident, it’s regrettable this show hasn’t seen the same gen z resurgence). admittedly I am only on season 2 but this shit rules. peak television
(also some lore that I got put on to this show because of one of taterhole’s quizzes indicating that the fictional character I’m most similar to is Bubs. lol)

spent the last two weeks working on an interactive guide, recommendations database, and digital library (link depot) to help get people off of social media. the first draft is done now, and it's at the link to this post.
it's still very much a work in progress (the library is especially thin atm) - which is why i wanted to share it here before unleashing it upon my IRL friends and the general public. i welcome any and all feedback, bug reports, and suggestions for things to add. i will be pushing updates to it out like a madman in the coming weeks, so be sure to check back every so often to see new additions to the database and library.
additionally, i am still on the hunt for newsletters from local venues / community organizations / magazines / newspapers, etc. the only cities i have remotely covered so far are nyc, orlando, denver, brisbane, and little bits of worcester and chicago. if you know anything in your area that fits the bill, send it my way!

chronological feeds on social media are a dying breed and it's so important to maintain the ones you still have
