Years ago, my colleagues at Business Insider and I tracked YouTuber “cancellation” arcs. What we found is that for many entertainers, “cancellation” actually sets the stage for a redemption arc, one that can raise their profile higher than ever. It wasn’t career-ending. It was fuel.

For most of the people I know the huge difference between physical stores and streaming platforms is that small physical stores rely on heavy users and treat them well, for streaming platforms one subscription is as profitable as the next

So denaturalize and deport Elon Musk and Peter Thiel, both of whom are public charges and security risks who undermine domestic tranquility and routinely promote radical foreign ideologies incompatible with America's pluralistic, scholarly, and secular traditions.
Trump: “I will permanently pause migration from all Third World Countries … denaturalize migrants who undermine domestic tranquility, and deport any Foreign National who is a public charge, security risk, or non-compatible with Western Civilization.“

if trump dies of natural causes (do not fedpost in my mentions) before he finishes his term and issues blanket pardons, there's going to be very intense pressure from every direction on vance to cover their asses, but vance could probably get himself impeached for trying
Also, this is Stephen Miller's project and while I know JD Vance is on board with the racism he's the only scheming vizier who stands to have pardon power if Trump keels over on the toilet so you're betting a lot on one horse of the subsequent power struggle.

Penda's Fen is one of the best movies I've seen in ages and this episode is a great discussion of it
This week's SBG bonus episode is on PENDA'S FEN, a striking BBC teleplay from 1974 wherein an incredibly uptight young man through a series of increasingly anomalous encounters learns to interrogate British identity, personal history, sexuality, religion, and more: www.patreon.com/posts/shelve...

ugliness, misery, and unhappy endings in art are valuable, because they're a part of being human. art helps us understand them. if you can't explore pain in a safe context, all you have when pain comes is terror.

unironically i think he wants to impose the conditions of his childhood onto the entire country
JD Vance's ideal America is a place with half the GDP where everyone with potential and options gets the fuck out, a shithole that people from countries with actual dynamism visit to watch chintzy 'traditional' dances before going home.

do I agree with this or am I just happy to see someone cite the original meaning of “unveiling” contained in ἀποκάλυψις
The reason that we reporters are focused so intensely on the L'affair Nuzzi is that, as Olivia notes, it is a basically apocalyptic scandal in the most literal sense of that term: a dropping of masks. It's acting as confirmation of every hideous story anybody's ever told about political journalists
this was bad before, but these are the most troubling and serious allegations you can make about a journalist. if they’re true, i genuinely can’t think of a worse scandal in the history of political journalism. devastating to our industry, to public trust as a whole, and to everyone in its orbit

frustrating that this piracy discourse is the same goddamn thing every time, has been for years, while discussion of exploitation of writers by publishers tends to remain very faint. it feels like this is a frequent steam valve for frustration, a group that can be yelled at without risking jobs.

The Colorful Music of Ichiko Hashimoto
She’s also a musician with decades of experience who has contributed to at least two vibrant cultural movements in the history of Japan’s music scene. It’s really the anime industry that should be grateful to have had her, even if for a brief moment.
