This is the correct framing. Ostracization can serve a noble social purpose

okay if they find emails between jp morgan (died 1913) and jeffery epstein (died 2019) that would be a big scoop
he’s crashing out

This is fucked up to say but the Epstein emails feel like a literary event. Such a strangely valuable window into the mind of one of modern history's villains, written in an already infamous style.

My mandatory anti-harassment training at work got *more* woke this year. I’m surprised Trump hasn’t nuked the EEOC

A direct email exchange from 2011 between Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, just released by House Oversight Committee Democrats.

I imagine this will be explored in more detail but I don't get why the Pluribus pod people are dedicated to nonviolence. If you combine the consciousnesses of every person in the world, there's going to be a LOT of violent impulses in there

Watching Hobson's Choice on Tubi even though I could be watching on Criterion in better quality and without ads. But I had Tubi open and I was like oh Hobson's Choice is on here. I enjoy Tubi so much that I am not willing to switch over to the other app even though it would be a better experience

this is a rich text but my favorite part is that despite being presumably good at math, her husband is so illiterate that he cannot read a baby's report card
I think the belief by the powerful that "people will put up with many things if you are excellent at math" is incredibly revealing in terms of understanding How We Got Here

Bovino had to leave because no barber shop in town would touch up his obscene haircut

Watching the "Cubby Bear" cartoons from Van Beuren studios in the '30s. A horribly non-charming and unfunny character but I can't stop watching, even this third-string stuff hits good when you're a toonfreak

I feel like Sentimental Value should be boycotted for using the Faces song from Rushmore in the trailer. That song is from Rushmore. The fucking gall, unbelievable

I love when a corner store resells Kirkland products. Yes king use that Costco membership to buy cheap goods and mark them up at your shitty store

Pluribus is an AI metaphor, right? Have these thinkpieces been filed yet? The premise is rife with various metaphorical possibilities I suppose but “the last holdout not using AI” has gotta be one of them

It’s so sad that Denis Johnson didn’t live to see Train Dreams. A very fine adaptation.
