It's interesting to me that the American authors conservatives deem acceptable/non-woke/masculine--your Steinbecks, Cormac McCarthys, Faulkners, Hemingways etc--all identify brutality as the fundamental language and original sin of the United States. There's nothing very patriotic about their work.

All the deregulation caused by Regan republicans and Clinton caused this inequality. We should be running them all into the ground. The only power we have over billionaires is controlling their perception in society. We can control that narrative and we should use that power to defend ourselves.

Actually I think it would benefit society if Elon, Altman, all billionaires, would go into a bunker, under a bridge, and constantly told they were pieces of human garbage until they actually meaningfully contributed. Society and our wealth inequality is because of their abuse so why give them grace?

Kurt Cobain said this during an interview with music journalist Mary Anne Hobbs for the UK publication NME (New Musical Express), published on November 23, 1991. Thirty Five Years Ago.

Kurt Cobain seated with an acoustic guitar, accompanied by a quote on sexual violence prevention.
Detailed Description:
Kurt Cobain is seated indoors, holding a light brown acoustic guitar across his lap. He has shoulder-length blonde hair, light facial hair, and is wearing a yellow long-sleeved shirt over a collared shirt.
To his left, a dark translucent box overlays the image containing white text that reads:
> "Rape is one of the most terrible crimes on Earth and it happens every few minutes. The problems with groups who deal with rape is that they try to educate women about how to defend themselves. What really needs to be done is teaching men not to rape. Go to the source and start there."

They quoted me in this New Yorker piece about AI today. www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...

“Let’s say there’s a world or time line I exist in where A.I. has been subject to regulation. It is ethical. It has no footprint environmentally,” the novelist Jeff VanderMeer, a prominent critic of A.I., told me over the phone. “With those guardrails in place, would I read an A.I. book? All I can say is no. And the reason is, in part, because I want to read something coming from a particular mind.” Using A.I., he said, “feels like a betrayal of the whole point of why you’re a writer.”

There is a moment at the very very end of Abdul El-Sayed's podcast with Ezra Klein (book recommendation section) where he talks about the idea of "speaking truth to pain" and this will be staying with me for an extremely long time. www.nytimes.com/2026/09/25/o...

But there’s also something about truth to pain. We talk a lot about truth to power, but I think it’s actually a lot harder to speak truth to pain. I say that as someone who went to medical school, realizing that in a lot of our politics right now, we’ve got to get a lot better at speaking truth to pain if we’re going to get through some of these challenges that we have.

What does “truth to pain” mean?

It’s one thing to look power in the eye and say: You’re wrong about this. But there’s a way in which pain is very difficult to reason with. Because when somebody is in their pain, they’re in their trauma. They see that pain, and they may not see what’s causing it.

I remember just very explicitly being in a trauma ward with a gunshot wound patient and watching this big guy with his hand on his gunshot wound. All the folks are trying to pull his hand off his pain, that point of his gunshot wound, this clear vulnerability.

And this emergency room doctor had the presence of mind to be like: Everyone, stop. And she looks him in the eyes, and she’s like: I get that really hurts, and I’m so sorry that you’re here. You don’t want to be here. We don’t want you to be here. But if you don’t let us fix this, you could die. So I’m going to take your hand, and I’m going to move it off, OK? Because I need to get there so that you can live.

She was speaking truth to pain. He understands he’s at the hospital, he needs care, but he also doesn’t want anybody to touch the wound. Which is a natural thing. And I think it is a really great metaphor for how we think about a lot of these challenges we talked about today.

It’s just a kind of hasty, under-thought hot take that isn’t about AI—it’s about the contempt for genre fiction that some people actively seek out opportunities to express from new angles, because if they just say “romance is stupid, boo,” they know nobody cares.

This take is not really worth getting worked up about for me, but mass manufacture of clothes is more comparable (though still not really comparable) to *printing* of books. Somebody still decided what the clothes should look like.

“Hold Your Applause for the New Gaza Documentary

There may yet be hard truths in 'NAZA,' including evidence of Israel's systemic failures. But the reporting around it treats flimsy claims as proof of criminality.”
