Do yall know how long The New Republic had an all-white masthead? If not, you should take some time and look it up today. Really interesting stuff.
A base that has long made pragmatic, sober decisions appears increasingly attracted to charismatic outsiders who promise to break from the party’s failures of the last decade. They see their party’s leaders as feckless and inept.

This is your regular reminder that in the year 2000, Paul Rudd, with frosted tips, appeared in the Hong Kong film GEN-Y COPS as a bad guy (kinda). In the movie, he does martial arts, fights a robot, and, most shocking of all, does an entire scene in Cantonese.

Chadwick Boseman and James van der Beek both died in their 40s of an illness that's treatable if a colonoscopy catches it but almost no insurer covers them for people under 45, this is what Engels meant by "social murder"

what do we do about the fact that every publisher is publishing conservative “celebrity” slop. those are the publishers whose books we are arguing over buying at indies vs amazon. i refuse to buy books at amazon! but publishing itself is also a problem!
The front page of the Hachette Book Group's website urges visitors to "join the fight against censorship" by buying banned children's books that feature LGBTQ characters. This fall, Hachette will publish a book by Sam Alito, who just wrote a Supreme Court opinion making it easier to ban these books.
Sam Alito’s Publisher Wants You to Buy the Children’s Books He Just Made It Easier to Ban
The author of Mahmoud v. Taylor is writing a book for a publisher that calls the push to ban books with LGBTQ characters an attack on “one of the most important foundations of a free society.”
