The problem isn't Emmett in particular. It's the entire culture he comes from. Autism adjacent techie nerds who managed to make millions or billions off a website without ever seeing Middle America or what's happening there are confused. They start to move in elite circles,… https://t.co/c63aIdBVYo— Devon Eriksen (@Devon_Eriksen_) December 27, 2023

Somebody asked me how one becomes more charismatic, and here’s my responsetldr — be less graspy by becoming more comfortable with yourself. That allows for more playfulness, more spaciousness in intimate interactions, which allows everyone to feel good about themselves https://t.co/DlLUebFUEM— taco belle (@animalologist) December 28, 2023

As AT&T's Lily, actor Milana Vayntrub faced extreme sexual harassment online. She told fans in 2020: "I am not consenting to any of this. I do not want any of this."

Lincoln wasn't particularly, um, progressive on the issue. His primary goal was always to hold the union together (an impossible task), with a secondary one to set the conditions for slavery to end some day in the indefinite future. 4/n pic.twitter.com/4X0LFgZ80w— Brynn Tannehill (@BrynnTannehill) December 28, 2023

ok, I've now read the full NYT complaint filed this morning vs OpenAI and Microsoft. I'm impressed - it's future-focused around fair value for work vital to democracy. It also contains 220k pages of exhibits although the pages of Ex J stood out to me. more on that in a minute. /1 pic.twitter.com/e394EZYCed— Jason Kint (@jason_kint) December 27, 2023

emerald fennell + sam levinson are similar...both have a keen visual eye which makes them not bad directors, but when it comes to writing both get bogged down in trying to subvert and/or shock + lose track of what they're trying to say which makes them both not good writers— fka 🌹 (@holyteerrain) December 25, 2023

Notice how Israeli Jews can publish plans to ethnically cleanse Palestinians in Israeli newspapers and they’re treated reasonably, but the mere phrase “from the river to the sea” is treated (in bad faith) as synonymous with displacing Israeli Jews and histrionically condemned. https://t.co/KFAEKK6NLy— Babak (@ChronicBabak) December 25, 2023

We’re deeply disturbed by reports of the Israeli military carrying out field executions of Palestinians as well as horrific images of Palestinians, including children, detained under atrocious conditions in Al-Yarmouk Stadium.

So apparently childish Gambino didn't pay the woman who's on the cover of Awaken my love her residuals. Lawyers of Donald Glover won't talk to her etc. She was promised residuals and the only person got paid was the white woman who created the headpiece. pic.twitter.com/pDmTrInUR9— Nat (@chatterboxnat) December 25, 2023

Israel’s claim a Palestinian was “likely” responsible for the killing of Shireen is a carbon copy of Israel’s fabricated ‘report’ when an IDF sniper shot my son, Tom. It showed the wrong location and line of fire, and there were no Palestinian gunmen in the area. https://t.co/G1GKBSFgtv— Jocelyn Hurndall (@jocelynhurndall) May 12, 2022

Passage from screenshot of book: > > How could love be anything other than a rapture? "You should date," my mother says. "Meet someone nice." As if there's any correlation between this force, this feeling, and dating.
> > Oh, the interchangeable men on the Google Calendar-Chris, Pete, Rob, Malcolm-like so much bland litter; taking Ubers and Lyfts to restaurants and bars; doing the math to split the bill and match the tip with men who own bicycles more expensive than their furniture, men who are oddly puritanical about hops and vegetables, men who are boastful of their neuroses the trauma, the therapy, the meta-therapeutic rejection of therapy. One told me in earnest that it was important that I know right away, from the start, that he hated his mother. I just nodded over my Korean short rib, sipped my orange wine. Men so weak that I have to break up with myself for them. Sperm on crutches, Grandma Rose would've said.
