A Bio? In this economy?
With pieces like this, sometimes I wish we could talk to the author's current and ex-partners and fellow employees. I suspect that we'd find a corelation between these authors' personal behavior and their assignment of blame elsewhere on public matters.

I hate that I guessed that this was written by a cis gay man when I saw it and I was correct. That it's Andrew Sullivan, the most cis gay man, confirms that I was correct in coming here instead of clicking through.

Greek vase painting is right out though. Not worth the mud it's painted on. Or something.
It's always wild to me to see this take on Greek statues when the art historian responsible for many of the modern ideas about Greek art was an 18th century gay man (Winckelmann) and aren't correct!

I don't want to think about what he'd do for a job once we're all put into internment camps. Probably say it was necessary but that the government needs to use more sheep dip for our lice.

Sometimes when I can tell a person is trying to talk about the JFK assassination I start fact dumping about the Garfield assassination and won't stop, no matter what they try to do.

But they *weren't* good at their jobs. It was mostly catching other nations off guard and lots of methamphetamines. Leadership was filled with the same kinds of grifters as now. They failed b/c they were incompetent & constantly having to find scapegoats. The clothes were just better designed.

Oh God, this. So many dudes over 40 insisting that they should be able to come to the under-35 kink events and called it ageism. "But they don't come to the all-ages parties!" Gee, I wonder why, dude.

It was quite the experience to tell my "small government" parents about all the things the EPA has done in our area, having seen the documents myself. All kinds of remediation they were unaware of.

Oh sorry, I meant, dang, this was a fortuitous time for me to visit bsky again after a while away

What a time to come back to bsky

I feel... Honored?

As soon as I saw the article I immediately came here. Imagine being such an uninteresting columnist as PP is that the only way people will read your stuff is if you keep going after the same 0.5% of the US population, over and over again.

Agreed, I hope the OP listens to this advice.

Yeah, I was initially concerned that this was an acquaintance of mine but luckily the ages don't match. It is unfortunately a very real kind of person
