Show by The New World
Welcome to Touching Grass, where two extremely online people attempt to explain internet discourse to people sensible enough to spend their time offline. This week James Ball inflicts upon us a strange cocktail of Aella, AI doomerism and Harry Potter fanfiction. Meanwhile, Lucy Reade discusses why BookTok has changed how people read and… also gets on to the topic of Harry Potter fanfiction.Warning: this episode contains material of an adult nature!Aella:https://x.com/Aella_Girl/status/1763383809284731208 https://bsky.app/profile/bluser12.bsky.social/post/3mv4z6ycoks2rhttps://bsky.app/profile/stejormur.bsky.social/post/3mvdjiy32pc24Books:https://x.com/bookslattess/status/2096580249232269563?s=20 https://x.com/diatribadism/status/2097211649073545583?s=20https://x.com/stargirlBaird/status/2097316740749234649?s=20https://x.com/hexprax/status/2097192722767700087?s=20https://vm.tiktok.com/ZGdQy1X5A/Presented by James Ball and Lucy ReadeProduced by Matt WithersOFFER: Subscribe to The New World and get a free copy of Paul Mason's new book Reds.
