Okay what is this b👀k?
The book I’m writing is titled HOME OUT THERE. It’s about black queer people leaving home to find home. I weave my own experiences with biographical chapters about three black queer poet ancestors: Langston Hughes, Pauli Murray and Audre Lorde.

“Epstein argues that teaching children to write may be harmful because writing forces “linear” and “narrow” patterns of thinking, whereas the greatest thinkers never wrote.”
“Epstein argues that teaching children to write may be harmful because writing forces “linear” and “narrow” patterns of thinking, whereas the greatest thinkers never wrote.”
“The interview also becomes an exercise in intellectual peacocking as they invoke Socrates, Isaac Newton and quantum physics but pay little attention to Epstein’s crimes. Epstein reveals himself to be a living museum of racial prejudice.”

At one point, Bannon asks Epstein “Do you think you’re the Devil himself?”
Epstein smirks and says “No, but I do have a good mirror.”
“It’s a serious question. Do you think you’re the Devil himself?”
“Why would you say that?”
“Became you have all the attributes.”

David Ellison, chairman and CEO of Paramount, a Skydance Corporation, took the war of words and his message across the pond on Thursday, publishing an open letter to the creative community and audiences in the U.K. with a set of commitments, should the company succeed in acquiring Warner Bros.
