Great piece by Zadie Smith. When the right talks about classics or "Western" culture, these works are only important to the extent that it demonstrates their superiority, they have no interest in art in and of itself beyond that www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

there's a moment in PARADISE LOST where Satan arrives in Eden and realizes Hell isn't a place; it's a thing he carries within him and it'll follow him wherever he goes. and i think about that when i see these awful rich men whose monstrous wealth has enriched them not at all

look I know being an engaged citizen IS the work of democracy but it is also the work of elected officials not to create situations where everyone has to be mobilized all the time to prevent them from allowing some kind of Dickensian horror on a Sunday night while you're in between loads of laundry

Reading Shadow Ticket and it occurs to me that this is the tragicomic literary cheese content I've been yearning for since the antics of the 10 ft wheel of Quincentenariduodecuple Gloucester in Mason & Dixon.

This little hobgoblin has it out for my husband's Switch. He knocked it off the counter a couple days ago, and then, a day later, puked all over it and the kitchen table.

Cafes are neither offices nor libraries. Don't expect complete silence, but also don't take a zoom call or talk loudly on your phone. Cafes have a long history of being spaces for community and conversation. They are not your personal cubicle.
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

"There are no facts. The objects that exist and the events that happen are infinitely many things simultaneously. What they are, what they can become, and how they can enter the world depends on the way in which you apprehend them and you include them within a structure of sense." —Federico Campagna

In Chicago, four vehicles descended and eight ICE agents moved in to kidnap a child.
She screams, “I’m 15,” as ICE yanks her from the car and kneels on her neck.
This is not about immigration enforcement.
It's about terrorizing Americans.

Fucking reprehensible and disgusting.
ICE is not only chasing down every random brown person in Chicago, they have a cameraman following them to film this for social media. Cruelty and inhumanity as content.

I’m telling you: ridicule works. These guys are supposed to intimidate the citizenry and it’s very hard to do that when a guy in a frog suit is just staring you down and daring you to do something that makes it look like you’re afraid of a cartoon

A man who identified himself as a 20-year combat veteran was arrested after setting fire to an American flag in front of the White House – just hours after President Donald Trump signed an executive order pushing for strict penalties for desecrating the flag. https://cnn.it/3JrC3RP
