Y'all really need to see this excellent video that is mostly about the Rogansphere comedy scene, but a lot about Elon too and how they all suffer from bad dad syndrome and a need to "get the hell out of here."

Found the tweet that Joyce Carol Oates bodied Elon Musk with and it's so beautiful in its eloquent, simple take down. So much so he's crashing out trying to prove he reads books now. Put this in the Louvre.

Liberals! Listen to a goon who lost a safe seat, then clawed it back with a less-than-200-votes margin.
Tim Wilson refuses to agree that Sussan Ley is the right person to lead the Liberals & warns he is “concerned” about the party’s “leadership”
Stefanovic “that doesn’t sound like a key endorsement”
Wilson “I’m happy to endorse the leader”
(If I must)🙄🤦♂️Idiot. #auspol

Also thanks for telling me who Lewis Caroll was, I'm one of millions of people who've never heard of him
Watching 'Annabel Crabb's Civic Duty' on iview and wondering:
- will too much condescending tweeness give me diabetes
- do we really have preferential voting because "we reckon it's fairer"?
( I really like our voting system, just wonder if that's how it came about)

An abiding interest of mine is early works that the creator later disrespected/disowned. It's stuff done before the creator fully found their voice, often still copying others to see how it goes.

Maxwells compliance with Trump also has to be viewed through the lens that Maxwell could reasonably assume that Trump ordered that Jeffrey Epstein be killed while he was in prison.
“The President sent his lawyer to negotiate a settlement with a convicted sex trafficker to provide cushy accommodation in exchange for her silence on his participation in said sex trafficking” is a cold description of the facts of an insane story that the media doesn’t find worthy of scrutiny

Moore rather gave the game away on Today just now when he mentioned climate change as one of the things on which the BBC should be impartial. Treating the truth and lies as though they are equal isn't impartiality, it's an abdication of the most basic journalistic responsibility

Nick Cave. Loved his Birthday Party stuff and first 4 solo albums. Can't stand him now
What is your biggest musical blindspot for someone precisely your age?
For me - an elder millennial - it is that I have never knowingly listened to INCUBUS, nor could I name even one of their songs if you put a gun to my head.
