I'm a scholar and I consume slop
Imagine going back in time 50 years to see some Civil War researcher and telling them, "oh yeah read your book in college, excellent slop!"
I think Mark Twain would be cool with it
Fellow slop-consuming scholar chiming in.
I study slop in the very literal sense, because I'm a food scholar lol.
Ah, I did my graduate work on superheros and the evolution of heroic figures in popular culture
Which, believe me, meant I read a whole lot of garbage
That's a fascinating subject! A friend of mine's partner specializes in the semiotics of comic books. I've had great conversations with him talking slop in general.
That's my friend group movie night dynamic!
Hail, pigs
Consuming too much slop is what gave that idiot kakarot the heart virus 
If scholars aren’t on my side, I know got my back!
