Non-political rant. What happened to food writers of the Jonathan Gold variety? The ones that will go to a restaurant for like a month—study the dishes and then give an opinion? I miss that caliber of storytelling. Not fast and loose

The last time I’ve felt the use of a camera mattered was back in 2016. Same feeling back then, only far more concentrated these days. If the people don’t make drastic moves soon..I can only see the A24 film “Civil War” become a reality.

Dear the Media,
When something bad happens in an area under the executive branch's purview, and the White House goes "uh... a Black or gay person must've done it," you do not need to accept that. You're allowed to follow up in pursuit of the factual reason, not the bigoted excuse.
Love,
