Something else just occurred to me, you might try the Dungeon Crawler Carl series by Matt Dinniman or This Quest is Broken series by J.P. Valentine too. They are a newer genre called LitRPG where the conventions of gaming (like things being “quests” or health/mana bars are directly apparent to the characters and it makes for some interesting moments.

I don’t read a bunch of strict Horror, but I have enjoyed the ones I’ve read by Grady Hendrix.
Otherwise, based on your answer, here are a few books I’ve read that line up for one reason or another. I’ve placed them in a specific order but they are all enjoyable:
Kaiju Preservation Society by John Scalzi John Dies at the End by David Wong Dark Matter by Blake Crouch The 7½ Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton This is How You Lose the Time War by Amal El-Mohtar and Max Gladstone How to Live Safely in a Science Fictional Universe by Charles Yu Echo Wife by Sarah Gailey
How many consumers who are buying phones at the non-pro levels use their port for anything other than charging more than 5-times a year?
I’d bet those that do would be buying the Pro line of phones which are faster.
What media do you watch? Favorite games? Movies? Tv?
That was my take too. Their overall point wasn’t bad but the start was a complete non sequitur that made me question if I wanted to finish because it’s a bad foundation for their actual argument. 
The showrunner has said he has ideas on where to go, but with the strike there’s been no movement on anything officially. I finally binged the 1st 2 seasons after a bunch of people told me to do so. There was so much detail and so many Easter eggs
I know it’s between seasons 🤞🏼 but I have been jonesing to talk about Schmigadoon! with smart people. Though I may be the only one…
Apollo… (Too soon?)
Turbo Teen is reborn
What is R Eddit, some sort of online text program?
The book that really got me started reading fantasy is also arguably a “school for magic” book from long before it was a trope. A Wizard of Earthsea by Ursula K Le Guin is a classic.
Gladstone is definitely still writing stuff. The Craft Sequence series is done at 6 books, but there is a new trilogy called The Craft Wars that is meant to wrap up the whole universe. The 1st book Dead Country came out in March with book 2 slated for April 2024 per fantasticfiction.com
If it’s replies to a post of mine I upvote virtually everything. If something is so incorrect is borderline misinformation or so off topic that there’s no connection to the thread, I downvote. If it’s really insightful that I think more people should read it, I upvote.
