her way is blocked by Hitler-happy adolescents, faces already familiar by way of the newsreels, imagining themselves predators but when observed more closely, fated after all to suffer, to be brought down as prey, even at the hands of those they thought were brothers
She tries to turn and step back out but her way is blocked by Hitler-happy adolescents, faces already familiar by way of the newsreels, imagining themselves predators but when observed more closely, fated after all to suffer, to be brought down as prey, even at the hands of those they thought were brothers in a struggle for which they themselves were always too fragile.

I’m a little bit embarrassed that I never made the connection between silver in film and vampires not showing up
To cover the supernatural angle, Slide has brought along a little 35 mm Leica, but for all his cranking, aim-ing, and snapping, each time the photos are developed, once again it's the same sorrowful story told so often out here, one blank frame after another, a vampire's allergy to silver, an ambivalence as to light itself...

Out of war nations acquire additional territory, if they are victorious. They just take it. This newly acquired territory promptly is exploited by the few -- the selfsame few who wrung dollars out of blood in the war. The general public shoulders the bill.

Like Jessica notes in the review, being a good man is "blessedly gender-free"
The good man of the reasonable center, in Galloway’s view, adheres to a code indistinguishable from that of the Boy Scouts: mental and physical fitness, emotional resilience, hard work, financial prudence, caring for others. Few could object to any of this. But the person it describes—a kind and conscientious sort, who aspires to make a decent living and who looks after their loved ones—seems blessedly gender-free. So why make this about manhood? Even the Boy Scouts have gone coed.

Also lmfao: "When Germans or Russians are streaming over the border or firing from the beach, big-dick energy isn’t just a nice idea; it’s fucking mandatory."
Galloway appeals to the reader’s nostalgia for mid-century “Peak Male.” It was young men, he reminds us, who stormed the beaches at Normandy and who won the Battle of the Bulge: “When Germans or Russians are streaming over the border or firing from the beach, big-dick energy isn’t just a nice idea; it’s fucking mandatory.” Of course, the German soldiers were young men, too. And it isn’t clear which border Galloway thinks the Russians were crossing, or if he realizes which side they were fighting for.

I was reading the excellent @winterjessica.bsky.social review of Scott Galloway's new book, and it is where I became aware that Gavin Newsom just let this claim from Charlie Kirk stand.

It's just wildly false; Gen Z drinks less and uses fewer drugs

www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...
These numbers have roused bipartisan concern. In March, Governor Gavin Newsom, of California, on the début episode of his new podcast, welcomed the conservative influencer Charlie Kirk, who lamented Gen Z as the “most alcohol-addicted, most drug-addicted, most suicidal, most depressed, most medicated generation in history.” And these under-thirties, Kirk said, were receiving a pernicious message: “You’re not going to have the same American Dream that your parents would have.” He and his fellow conservative organizers “saw this as an opportunity,” he added, “especially with young men.” Donald Trump won men under age thirty by fifty-six per cent in the 2024 election, up fifteen points from 2020. For these gains, Kirk credited the coalescing electoral power of the right-leaning constellation of podcasters and streamers known as the manosphere, which encompasses libertarian bros, evangelical Christians, and white nationalists.
