Again, can you imagine if a writer of color, a Black reporter specifically, did what Olivia Nuzzi did, what would happen to her career?
Would she be rehabilitated in less than a year? Hired by Vanity Fair? Given a book deal? A NYT puff piece?
It's a big club and we ain't in it.

The comparison isn’t perfect but I kind of think Olivia Nuzzi is to journalism what Jake Paul is to boxing. Influencer culture usurping institutions and turning outrage and negative engagement into maximum clicks and therefore value, plus it flatters elite interests

Fox guest on how to save money during the holidays:
"Remember, adults don't need gifts. Focus on the people in your life who are aged 3 to 18. Grandma doesn't need slippers. If they don't live by you, don't get them a gift."

Always appreciate the ephebophelia distinction for being a giant thundering siren with flashing spotlights of who should absolutely not be trusted.
I see the “technically it’s ephebophelia” crowd is out today, so just a reminder that A) this is NOT a case where technically correct is the best kind of correct and B) the minute you say this, the gods dump you in the “irredeemable creeper” basket and wash their hands thoroughly after touching you.

Just sum up the simple question of what is art? Easy! 😂
Personally, Id qualify any form of creative expression as art, which games would definitely fall under. My question would be, on what grounds or what examples would you give of games that are not just bad art, but categorically not art at all?

I had a convo with my girlfriend about the topic of video games as art, and I'm curious: do you think all video games fall under the category of art, or does it depend on the game?

So on Epstein, the Democratic position should be "Trump should resign." If you are a Democratic elected, practice saying "We demand the president's resignation" in front of a mirror as many times as it takes until the dry-heaving that comes from having a phobia about actually doing politics passes.

Teen Vogue had excellent and respected political reporting for the past decade. Wild and pathetic to see them just throw that away.
May Lex and all the other staffers find better opportunities in places capable of appreciating their journalistic contributions.
