The ad is sponsored by Charles T. Munger, Jr., a well-known Republican donor in California

Well, that didn't take long. Today I got a mailer accusing @governor.ca.gov and "Sacramento politicians" of a "plan to strip away California's constitutional voter protections" and asking me to VOTE NO on the special election to battle Texas's unconstitutional power grab in California

It brought me back to this piece I published in @lareviewofbooks.bsky.social about Alfredo Jaar's great (and brave!) artwork, which he performed during Chile's terrible times, asking everyday people about their happiness: lareviewofbooks.org/article/alfr...

A billboard in Chile displaying Alfredo Jaar's subversive artwork in Chile during the junta. The billboard reads, "Es Usted Feliz?" or, "Are you Happy?"

More sad proof of the decline of the humanities: a story about the fate of creative labor under corporate shenanigans is framed as nostalgia and intergenerational warfare for (nonexistent) resources:https://nymag.com/intelligencer/2023/07/the-old-guard-is-out-at-penguin-random-house.html

Editors once liked eating at the Four Seasons and had the money to do so

Picture of the year. The perfect punctums of marble, "chandelier," curtain rod, black marker squiggle and the need for mold remediation of those boxes.
