These are the only 2001 albums I am interested in championing.

Music takes a lot of dark turns around this time and I am NOT into it.

Same for these. These should just be part of your government issued First Apartment starter kit and stay in circulation for 20 somethings for all eternity.

I actually think it’s a brilliant idea if it can be done in an educational way that’s legal.

This is an excellent interview technique to get someone to start saying the thing that they are trying really hard not to say.
Roose: Would you ever put a prediction market inside Roblox — like, let kids bet with their Robux and say, “I bet he’s gonna steal a Tung Tung Tung Sahur?” Newton: Or, “I bet he’s not gonna Dress to Impress.” Baszucki: We would — I think we would have to do that — once again, I’ll share some of the complexity. Every single country in the world has different legislation around loot boxes and kid gambling. And so we would have to be — it sounds very fun and obvious. Like, I love that — Roose: Oh, to be clear, I think this is a horrible idea. Newton and Baszucki: (laughter) Roose: I was just interested if you were thinking about it. Baszucki: Well, I actually think it’s a brilliant idea if it can be done in an educational way that’s legal. And so, imagine no free Robux, no free prizes, just a game called the Dress to Impress Predictor, where it’s not like trying to get kids’ money or anything like that. I would be a big fan of it. Newton: Interesting. Roose: Yes, start them young. That’s what I always say. When it comes to gambling, you’re never too young.

These people have brain damage.
Newton: (interjecting) You don’t think you have a problem with predators on the platform. Baszucki: I think we’re doing an incredible job at innovating relative to the number of people on our platform and the hours, in really leaning into the future of how this is going to work.

So I did. I clicked the link. There's a link on there for something called "Graith Care" and I said, WTF is a Graith Care? So I went over to the search engine and looked it up, because I am a member of the Look It Up Club and folks.... We live in a dark, cynical time. Very dark. Not good, even.

This is a level of insincerity that could flatten a small midwestern town in the 40s.

The Pope needs to send a memo to all the American Bishops to start going in real hard on the Catholic stuff that freaks Protestants the fuck out. Turn the Saints and Relics up to 11 and whatnot.
The severed head of St. Catherine, which someone cut off as a keepsake and then it magically appeared somewhere else, so it’s kept in this box so it can’t do that again. Catholics, we just be like that.

It's raining today and for every day after allegedly, which means it's time to listen to Cocteau Twins.

“And on the subject of burning books: I want to congratulate librarians, not famous for their physical strength or their powerful political connections or their great wealth, who, all over this country, have staunchly resisted anti-democratic bullies who have tried to remove certain books from their shelves, and have refused to reveal to thought police the names of persons who have checked out those titles. So the America I loved still exists, if not in the White House or the Supreme Court or the Senate or the House of Representatives or the media. The America I love still exists at the front desks of our public libraries.” ― Kurt Vonnegut, A Man Without a Country

This op-ed hits so hard.
I am exhausted with begging for help and pleading for others to recognize transgender people’s humanity. I’m also exhausted with the shallow brand of identity politics removed from the material concerns of most people–including trans people–adopted by the mainstream of the Democratic Party in the 2010s when it seemed a useful wedge against progressives like Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. As Judith Butler told El País earlier this year, “Identity is a great start for making connections and becoming part of larger communities. But you can’t have a politics of identity that is only about identity. If you do that, you draw sectarian lines, and you abandon our interdependent ties.”
