We’ve got a set of Gen X bosses who have been taught Baby Boomer job standards in a 2018 economy. Maybe millennials aren’t the ones who should be adapting.

i don't want to link chateau shit on here, but that one article that they did where they talked about 80+% of lit agents with <5yrs experience were women. That doesn't even count the men that are fags.

i have seen a ton of talented writers on xo over the years, but the real reason that you will never see a great novel anymore is because everything is so pozz'd with identity politics. you will never see another thom jones type come along with today's editors and lit agents.

i understand that most readers are women, and that the market has to appeal to them, but it is a vicious circular cycle. the other thing is that none and i mean none of these authors has anything real to say that hasn't been pushed a 1000 times before. no real experience. no real talent. i remember reading that art of fielding book back in 2012 because it got so much hype just to find out it was B- and totally pozz'd with fag shit.

But how can we ever break the iron grip of the all powerful publishing houses? The reason it’s all chicks running them is that women read a ton more books bc it’s a great way to be passive aggressively withdrawn from your family. The funny writers on here would hie they to Hollywood that’s still male dominated enough to hire way more dudes as creators and producers and generally hire women to write for very female audiences. Reading is, quite literally, for bitches.

as gen-x ages, it becomes clearer just how fundamentally BROKEN they were by growing up in the boomershadow. a shadow they have still failed to escape despite the fact that the oldest x'ers are 54 now.

consider that the oldest boomers turned 54 in 1999. consider how securely the boomer "legacy" and general cultural position had been established by 1999, relative to the gen-x position in 2019.

I'm a zennial and I've watched competent and excellent colleagues get passed over for promotion again and again because brass wanted to bring in new blood. Promoting from within is a myth.
