I do a podcast about Jane Austen with my friend Maggie! We talk about our love for Jane and give a middle finger to all the haters (that was our mission statement back in 2015 and we're sticking to it).
Thinking of reading The Murder of Roger Ackroyd by Agatha Christie, I happened to look at the first few reviews and there was a massive spoiler. I’m so pissed!!!

People don't explore art because they've been taught to dominate it vis-a-vis their relationship to it. They buy it or own it or beat it via critique or click like. It's all impositional. It's all imperial. Just a billion little empires.

Half-baked but: I keep thinking about shame, and how in the past people in government might have had a sort of built in firewall against doing the most egregious shit we’re seeing. But now the info environments are so separate that they get *positive* reinforcement for just absurd action.
