do you know WHY actors and athletes are so well compensated today that it’s hard to look at them as “labor”
because they organized and negotiated for it

beyond just being wrong on the merits, the thing that bugs me about people dismissing actors and athletes as labor is that, historically, they’ve been at the forefront of a lot of labor victories that have helped labor more broadly

lolol these fucks. you're catholic! the pope is infallible! you don't like that, go be an evangelical, which is what you really want to be.

Status professions like media have been gutted over the last 25 years and there is no realistic path to earn one of the few seats left through actual merit or accomplishment. Instead, everything involves playing status games with gatekeepers and it's essential that one comes from their social class.

This man bought the Temu Picture of Dorian Gray
This is good reporting and all that but here's the thing I learned the other day: Bill Pulte, the 50-year-mortgage dude and the guy who keeps pulling the mortgage docs of Trump's enemies is only 37 years old.

The Epstein story gets a something that is tearing at the heart of the electorate: elite impunity. The idea that wealthy and powerful people can do terrible things *at scale* and face no consequences for them. Whatever political party actually stops it could rule the country for a generation.

Media, business, politics, you name it -- this country is led by weak, feckless cowards. Our elite, our best & brightest, our leaders, are fucking pathetic. That's the problem. One more bit of evidence isn't going to change that. Feh.
