Having gotten my hands on an advance copy, I surely felt many different emotions: anger, disgust, dismay, confusion as to why anyone thought this was a good idea, and bemusement about how this is what Brett Ratner's life has been reduced to.

Currently working on one of my favorite pieces ever: The Hater’s Guide To Oracle. This company is so stupid and Larry Ellison has bet the farm on OpenAI having $300 billion to give it over five years. Larry Ellison is H.R. Geiger’s Jerry Stiller and he’s rigged his company to blow

I know I've posted this interview a lot, but I think it's really important in this moment.
A crucial part of hardening your heart against evil is deciding what path to redemption you're willing to allow. How might someone overcome their complicity, and how do you know their contrition is real?

this interview is fascinating
I don't even care if Ashley St Clair has some other angle here, she faced the music, showed the ability to introspect, expressed contrition, and embraced public virtue... this example must be encouraged
