paul mccartney for desert island discs in 1982: i’ve chosen one of john lennon’s record double fantasy – which i think is a beautiful song, it’s very moving to me […] to sum the whole thing up by playing a song called beautiful boy

To be fair, the poorest most malnourished Moldovan has better career opportunities than a Brit without two+ godparents with blue links on Wikipedia
americans will look directly into your eyes and tell you that a white girl from england has the same career opportunities as one from moldova

Generational differences are fake. Everyone is rude. Everyone stares at you like a slack jawed moron. Everyone is more conservative and prudish. Everyone listens to short form content out loud on their phones in public places

The CIA employs psychos to do its dirty work. It’s the perfect plausible deniability and psychos work for cheap. I guess this also includes what is turning out to be the most prolific serial killer in American history. Anyway
The father worked for the FBI + CIA during the watergate scandal doing illegal wiretapping, flew marijuana from mexico during the height of the CIA drug trafficking, and had charges dropped/was left alone despite multiple signs he was producing snuff/murdering women

Steve Bannon is a Leninist theory being proven more and more every day
JUST IN: Bernie Sanders & Steve Bannon will join forces at a “Pro-Human” AI event pushing to keep AI under human control.

If you read Charles Manson’s Wikipedia article it’s kind of crazy because half way through it just casually drops “So anyway, then Charlie started a cult with the help of Roger Smith and David Smith who funded him on behalf of the CIA and he didn’t go to prison anymore because he was part of this CIA program.” It’s not even like “some conspiracy theorists think” it’s just like “yeah he 100% worked for the CIA.”

two hour long experimental film that’s also every studio film from the 30s combined, all captured in glorious 1080p.
What's a "bad" movie that you think is actually a fascinating failure, worth studying more than some successes?

Generations are mostly a fake concept, except when a historic event like WWII actually creates a stark dividing line in lived experience based on age. COVID was one of those events, and yet we're not allowed to change where the line is because of some Salon thinkpiece in 2016.
there’s a much harder and clearer difference between older zoomers and younger zoomers than there is between younger zoomers and all of gen alpha

congrats to PTA but this is clearly a make-up win for Boogie Nights and Magnolia and Punch-Drunk Love and There Will Be Blood and The Master and Inherent Vice and Phantom Thread and Licorice Pizza and probably also some of those Haim videos too why not

Every conversation is meaningful
Autistic people aren’t bad at socializing. They’re bad at pretending a conversation is meaningful when it isn’t

There has been a lot of interest in and confusion about the British constitution. I am pleased, therefore, to present this simple and not at all tongue-in-cheek guide to understanding the constitutional settlement of 1688.

i find this framing really interesting. you’d never see an article that says ‘I cleaned toilets while studying at London Met’, why is it more newsworthy to have a job at Cambridge? Why are Cambridge students more deserving of a distraction-free education?
