Who could possibly have foreseen that war on Iran would (a) make Iran retaliate by closing the strait of Hormuz, which (b) could disrupt world oil markets, enriching Russia and penalizing most everyone else?

Who, indeed, except EVERYONE WHO HAS EVER THOUGHT FOR ONE MINUTE about the situation.

Hasbro’s CEO on J.K. Rowling. We just published our new Decoder interview with Chris Cocks, the head of Hasbro. I asked him directly about how he thinks about author J.K. Rowling’s politics and what it’s done to the Harry Potter f...

cannot stress enough that "separate the art from the artist" was meant for private individuals reconciling the art they love with its flawed creators and not meant for the ceo of a company driving a dump truck of money up to a bigot's front porch

There were no short-form videos posted to social media about the attack in front of Gracie Mansion, where Mr. Mamdani lives with his wife, Rama Duwaji. There were no impassioned speeches.

Mr. Mamdani chose an alternative path: two deliberative written statements, and one 14-minute joint appearance with his police commissioner, Jessica S. Tisch, a political moderate, during which they took only four questions.

this reads like it was written by the bari weiss squad over at the free press. Criticizing the mayor for NOT putting out a video about a hate crime but instead taking to traditional methods like a statement and then a press conference? What the hell?

you know who never stops providing content? easy, simple, low-effort content guaranteed to grab buckets of almost free engagement like it was rain?

there’s a structural reason here. mamdani’s response was to take an opportunity to make content - and therefore give the rest of the media some easy meta-content - and turn it down. he put governing ahead of content. our political media hates nothing more than someone who denies them easy content.

bookstores are getting increasingly conservative in their actual book buying numbers, so 1000% preorder that book you're excited about please. Every single copy helps.

so the new objective is basically to safely open the strait of hormuz, the strait that was open before they started this war for no reason

Awful.

The federal government is voluntarily shooting the country in the foot in an attempt to win Red State/Blue City culture war points.

She Went From Reality Star to Best Actress Front-Runner. She Deserves It All. Jessie Buckley’s acting methods may be a bit woo-woo, but can you argue with the results?

Cat disliking aside, Jessie Buckley is the most interesting (and quite possibly best) actor of her generation. I wrote about why that is, and about Buckley’s dream work focused process:

Key Details of 13-Year-Old Trump Accuser’s Accounts Are Verified The newly corroborated details suggest the woman was truthful about numerous aspects of her life.

There is apparently credible evidence that the president of the United States is a pedophile. The comforting phrase β€œaccused him without evidence” no longer fits this situation, and journalists must resort to the more perfunctory β€œhasn’t been formally charged.” www.thedailybeast.com/key-details-...
