Probably not a coincidence that so many great history writers — off the top of my head Robert Caro, Lawrence Wright, Barbara Tuchman, Robert Massie, Ron Chernow — all had backgrounds as journalists

Special edition of the Social Network where in the Larry Summers scene he only scorns the Winklevi after they tell him no actually they don’t have any hot single friends he could meet
The emails have Summers reporting to Epstein about his attempts to date a Harvard economics student & to hit on her during a seminar she was giving.

Impossible to read this official government post and not have it sound in your head like a high school freshman boy in a tweed sweater whose voice hasn’t changed yet
This is real. Our govt is Tweeting like a 14 year old and calling Americans imbecilic morons. We worry about children being bullied but this is the example set by the U.S. GOVERNMENT. This is so shameful. I’m embarrassed for any of you that think this is okay or make excuses for it.

Look I’m totally fine with long movies — I just rewatched Barry Lyndon a few days ago (it rules, rips, rocks, etc) — but learning the new Running Man movie is 2:15 just killed my interest in seeing it in a theater.
That’s more than 30 minutes longer than the Schwarzenegger movie!

So I’m not quite sure how to parse the Virginia HoD elections re GOPocalypse
Landslide in some ways…but the pickups were all in blue or VERY light red districts. Dems did not win any of the seats that in 2024 voted for Trump by more than 3%. Lost two Trump +5 seats, both by *more* than 5

It just wasn't a big, newsworthy deal like, for instance, the college applications of a mayoral candidate to a school he didn't get into or attend.
To recap: Jeffrey Epstein offered a NY Times reporter photos taken in Epstein's kitchen of Donald Trump and girls in bikinis *and* implored the NYT reporter to put this information in the public discourse in 2015
What did the NY Times editors know about this offer?

There is no reason the press could not all constantly demand an independent counsel investigation of Trump’s pedophile ties, if they wanted to
(They won’t because they don’t)
(They won’t because they don’t)
Today's Epstein news reminds me that in 1994 the Washington Post called for an independent counsel investigation of Whitewater "even though -- and this should be stressed -- there has been no credible charge in this case that either the president or Mrs. Clinton did anything wrong."

We should probably make banning this stuff — or maybe to avoid first amendment issues, at least requiring prominent AI labeling — a major priority.
