    Anything by Jason Pargin is awesome. The dude basically created the millenial internet discourse with Cracked. He’s now pretty big on things like TikTok and YouTube and I highly recommend following him.

      I am also a subscriber, I read John Dies At The End when it was a free book being discussed and shared when Jason was on SomethingAwful way back in the 2000’s, it was a great piece of easy-to-digest fiction that touched on a lot of themes and memes that were going around at the time so it gained a level of notoriety because of the creepiness factor of how much seemed to connect to headlines at the time.

      Jason is just a good author and good at tying together a lot of wildly varied ideas into one point, better than most at it without coming off as conspiratorial, I think he deserves a lot more subscribers and reward for staying so consistent. (Other than about his name that is.)
