Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 15hSomeone should ask him what he thinks Sinners is about. I’d be curious to hear his answer. 010
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 25/09/2026100% I listened to it the other day for the first time in a long time and thought, what a fucking great album. Top to bottom. Just fantastic. 000
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 13/08/2026When I was growing up in the 80s, my father told me, “Never learn to type. If you know how to type, someone will ask you to do it.” Of course, typing has been an essential element of every single job I’ve ever had and I had to learn to type the hard way, developed bad habits, etc. 420
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 08/08/2026I really wanted to stick with the show but I found it genuinely terrifying. Everyone says the scary bits are leavened by the wonderful characters, the writing, the humor, etc. But I struggled with the horror elements and had to stop. This thread makes me regret that I couldn’t sit with the horror! 200
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 05/08/2026I knew about VDARE for years before I understood why it’s called that. Not sure how I could have missed the V(irginia)DARE “first white baby” thing! 050
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 01/07/2026If I recall correctly, she left CBS News for CNN. Probably multiple reasons behind her decision! 000
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 26/06/2026This is an excellent, comprehensive, well-reported article, which I missed yesterday but read this morning when it landed in my inbox. Glad to be a supporter of . . . The City Reporter. (Pardon the rhyme.) 000
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 18/06/2026I was reading this yap in her Remnick interview the other day and was like, TF am I reading? Did someone stick several paragraphs of AI slop in my New Yorker?? 020
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 16/03/2026I am a longtime subscriber and reader of the NYT. Please hear me when I say this: This post is deeply, deeply fucked. 001
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 16/03/2026I *loathed* the 30 minutes I watched before walking out of the theater. 020
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 04/03/2026A weird episode when he worked for CBS News for like, 5 confusing minutes? 000
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 27/02/2026I’m going to delete because I know this is a serious matter, and I shouldn’t have replied in the way I did. 010
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 27/02/2026Please forgive me. This is a terrible event and I shouldn’t have made a quip. (It’s a bit of Jason Isbell esoterica.) 120
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 12/02/2026I’ve worked in a number of environments in which this seemed to be the case for white people only. For black people, an “elite” education seemed required just to get in the door. YMMV. 1240
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 08/02/2026Seems like not knowing about him would take effort; assiduous avoidance; fingers in ears; eyes covered. For years! 020
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 02/02/2026Mine arrived this past Saturday! Happy to support 404 and this project! 000
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 21/12/2025I’ve long harbored the theory that Chua wrote it herself. 150
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 18/12/2025I keep reading this post and thinking the “joke” is that you’re talking about Gates. That’s it, right? Otherwise I’m quite puzzled. 080
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 13/12/2025Such an excellent, thoughtful piece. I’m not familiar with the writer and doubt I would have come across this deeply satisfying read on my own. Thank you for posting it! 040
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 03/12/2025Literally just looked up his earliest pub date. He was my first thought. 030
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 03/12/2025I get that not everything is going to be for me. But this one isn’t just not for me; it’s disappointing. 0300
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 23/11/2025I didn’t read, and won’t read, anything from those two. People need to be far more discriminating about what they put/allow in their various holes; eye, ear, etc. 040
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 18/11/2025Am I the only one old enough to remember when she stepped down from heading a chapter of NOW after a series of quite f’ed up comments? 020
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 16/11/2025“Solidarity to all the allergy sufferers this week.” Reading is fundamental. 110
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 16/11/2025If you are unable to see the absolutely *wild* level of condescension in your comments, I suggest you spend some time in quiet contemplation. 000
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 16/11/2025As an observer, I don’t think you were asked for your “help.” Further, you can proselytize in your own posts and your own threads! Don’t try to hijack someone else’s audience! 010
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 14/11/2025*As a long-time subscriber*, I must tell you that this is fucking disgusting and you should be ashamed of yourselves. I don’t pay you to spit in my face. Go do some actual journalism, and not . . . whatever the fuck this blonde-humping garbage is. 010
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 10/11/2025I’d like to see stats on the %age of desperately poor SNAP recipients who want Dems to hold out for enhanced subsidies. (This is not a snarky comment. My sense is that these are distinct groups, and one is being sacrificed in an attempt to benefit another in an overall shit situation.) 000
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 10/11/2025The point of restarting SNAP is that the poorest among us will be able to eat. I have a hard time advocating for the use of leverage when I’m fine, but other people can’t eat. 100
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 10/11/2025I’m extremely frustrated by this. But I don’t know how they could have continued to hold the line against a party and administration willing to stave tens of millions of people. 100
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 10/11/2025I want Dems to hold the line against this despicable administration. I do not want them to cave. Not one bit. However, SNAP recipients are being *grotesquely* harmed. (Your reporting on this has been excellent, btw.) I can’t help but feel that they would be paying for my preferred outcome. 000
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 07/11/2025Thank you from bringing this to my attention! I signed up as a monthly supporter. (I’m spreading around what I used to spend on Hulu and Paramount+.) 130
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 05/11/2025That’s precisely what he’s babbling about. It’s a deeply racist bit of misogyny. 020
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 03/11/2025This sound is in my bones from my childhood, when my father would put up a screen and show vacation slides. Using this sound is a stoke of brilliance. I don’t live in NYC and he makes me want to. 2150
Catafalque @catafalque.bsky.social · 03/11/2025This is so fucking good. He’s activating the olds with the sound of a slide carousel. Genius. Fucking genius. 1140
