As one of the countless people *actually* cancelled by Bari Weiss, via her vast favor-trading networks of fellow nepotistic gatekeepers in media and publishing, I think both of these asinine dipshits should go fuck themselves.

Matt Yglesias QT'ing Corey Walker

I didn’t rejoice at her cancellation and got cancelled myself at roughly the same time, but I am sincerely jealous that no regime-aligned billionaire has even fit to curry favor with the Trump administration by giving me a huge sum of money.

The vitriol against Bari Weiss is just thinly-veiled jealousy by people who rejoiced at "cancelling" her in 2020 and are furious she managed to get fabulously wealthy in an infamously brutal and low-paying industry.

It got almost no attention but six months ago Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent ditched the beneficial ownership rules that facilitate tax evasion and oligarchy by simply choosing to not enforce them. Bob Kuttner has that story.

I like retrofuturism because I like the idea of a alternate past that was better than it was in our world. The idea of a world that moved faster earlier. Not just technologically but socially and politically..

It's from 1991 & is jaw dropping.

The oversimplified short story - it's abt how the Reagan Doct incl. allowing Lat Am "anti-communists" to sell fuck tons of coke in the US to pay for their illegal ops.

And cheap coke in the US became crack, which heavily impacted non-yt communities

"You are seen and you are loved" without the promise of safety or protection is a meaningless, hollow gesture.

We need people to embody "You will be safe, and you will be protected." We need people to actually do something and stand up for trans rights.

When all we want is to be able to exist.
