What this is describing is the overall arc of social media and mass platforms from MySpace (where Allen famously started) to now - which means that, as those platforms slowly degrade and eventually collapse suddenly, people like Allen have the most to lose www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Allen has always had a talent for hitting on a form of feminism that fits the times (and the market). In 2006, she was a class-confused twentysomething with big hoops, emblematic of a generation of young women told they could do and be whatever they liked. Her 2009 album It’s Not Me, It’s You pivoted to coolly empowered jokes about bad sex and bad politics, and by 2014’s Sheezus, hers was an all-out-girlboss pop. (The latter is surely best left in the vault, alongside Ed Miliband’s “This is what a feminist looks like” T-shirt, and Emma Watson’s #HeForShe UN speech notes.) Now, Allen has identified a demand for therapised intimacy and Auto-Tuned imperfection, a counter, perhaps, to that other reigning archetype, the glossy and seemingly invulnerable all-American showgirl, who sings about her relationships while retaining a sheen of coyness and sanitised acceptability.

Everyone was a writer in the same way that everyone on Instagram is a photographer, and it was cool to see young people take a skill they had learned for school and use it to parse their worlds one day at a time.

These people simply have no fundamental principles other than feeling good about not being Republicans, which is why they get angry when anyone ever suggests doing any of the myriad of things Republicans do that actually works

The problem in this country is not polarization. The problem in this country is we have one neofascist party and a media and 'opposition party' who are hellbent on pretending that said neofascist party is normal and legitimate.

All which has me thinking about the deep cultural acceptance among professionals that you are allowed to go through a long period of amoral selling out so you can acquire not just personal comfort but comfort for a legacy before you turn around and do good. And how it’s bullshit.

I have made a bargain with myself. It goes like this: I recognize that being noisy about things that I think are wrong might have cost me jobs and a more comfortable career. But if I am to work at all, I don’t want it to be because I kept quiet. A living made that way is not one I want.

if you are a dude and want to be an ally the answer is not in posting or spending money (though do that, sure) but in realizing how your presence can change the atmosphere of a room and that no one has any reason to know or care that you are “one of the good ones” and do what you can about that.

I got back home a bit ago from Tennessee's execution of Christa Pike. We sat in the witness room for nearly 2 and a half hours as she received two rounds of pentobarbital. She was taken away in an ambulance shortly after that and I can't say for sure if she is dead or alive at this moment.

He got pressure from the whole CA Democratic political establishment (Newsom, Becerra, Bass). And ultimately he's a product of the machine too, appointed by Newsom. The CA machine is among the worst in the country precisely because its decision-making is so critical to the country.
