We bullied a bunch of vulnerable kids back into the closet with threats of explicit violence and parental abuse. Why do they suddenly feel less secure?

Me: oh wow, this shop has everything my heart desires!

Spooky shopkeeper: yes, I will warn you... every item comes with a price.

Me: yes, I know how shops work

Spooky Shopkeeper: The price may be more than you expect to pay.

Me: Yes, I know how US taxes work, too.

Shopkeeper, increasingly exasperated: I'm trying to tell you that I'm evil and offering these wares with no regard for the harm they will do!

Me, also increasingly exasperated: I know what capitalism is too goddammit

I remember the journalists we were all asked to debate here in Ireland alone, who said #metoo was going too far. Oh! They were anti #repealthe8th too. You’re never going to guess* what the rest of their stances are, or who they now work for. *You will totally guess

I got an email from a parent whose kid was in Wakefield's fraudulent study linking vaccines to autism, two years ago. She believes vaccines "cause" autism, but she also told me that Wakefield has misrepresented how long it took for her child to "regress" (6 weeks, according to her, versus 24 hours)

"The problem with Woke 1 was that it did the opposite of that Michael Brooks quote about being "kind to people, ruthless to systems." It tried to fix massive societal issues by micromanaging individual behavior, which was never going to work, and only empowers bad faith bullies."

I've been thinking about the backrooms on and off since I saw it, and this essay really digs into the way some stories flatten out if you just assume everything characters say is true. Scared people lying to themselves is really interesting!

Look, just because he died young, I'm not going to pretend I'm not aware that Glen Hansard groomed a teenager and had a well circulated reputation amongst heads and people in the music industry for chatting up teenage girls, and probably worse.

Satyricon (1969) Fellini's adaptation of a fragment of a roman poem from the first century AD pretty much sets the bar in my mind for ancient epics.

Between the Leto story and everything else it's as abundantly clear as ever that way too many people still don't care about or acknowledge the harm many men in the public eye do to women and girls, even when it's an open secret.

India's education minister Dharmendra Pradhan resigned at the weekend, following a series of national protests known as the ‘cockroach protests’. But what were these protests, what is their significance and what is next for India? jrnl.ie/7114692

Could the Gen Z 'cockroach' movement actually topple Modi?
Commentators have said that the resignation of the education minister has ‘heavily damaged’ Modi’s image.

A real shame to see the BBC axe Live at The Apollo. It seemed like the only show on TV that actually lets stand-up comedians do stand-up comedy, and was a great platform for introducing newer acts to a TV audience.
