Maybe this really was Elissa Slotkin's experience in the weeks after 9/11, but it sure as hell wasn't mine. People lost their fucking minds, and pretending they didn't, that everybody wanted to sit around and sing kumbaya, is revisionist insanity.

By my read the Meta settlement essentially REQUIRES Meta to continue and expand its corporate surveillance and data harvesting. It requires meta to "invest" more in its "behavioral" age assurance system, ie monitoring everything you do on the platform and trying to figure out if you might be a teen

Just learned about "Elmer," a lesser-known cryptid from the greatest city on earth, Richmond, Virginia (1935)

an artist's rendition of Elmer, it's like if Evie became a meth addict, got a perm, and grew duck feet. caption reads: This may not be Elmer, the famous What-Is-lt who has been draw-ing crowds at 418 West Main Street by his weird nocturnal thump-ing. but at least it answers to the description given by Mrs. Georjie Douglass. Foxo Reardon, staff artist, is responsible for this.

There is a lot to say about the Nolan Odyssey movie. But one point that I think has not been emphasized enough is: this is a film about living in LA, as Nolan, my erstwhile British compatriot and age mate, has done for years. I gather it’s a strange place.

I’ve been doing some in-depth reporting on the Prairieland cases, and had to get this out first as I continue to dig: I spoke with Ana Bell, sister of Des, who it turns out co-owns and runs an indie bookstore. We talked about the case, the judge, book banning, ICE killings, and living through this:

Lindsay Graham was, I think, one of the most contemptible figures in US politics, a titan of respectable bipartisan foreign policy for years who displayed no principles, no insight, and no beliefs beyond a gleeful and vicarious love of violence. An indictment of every institution he served in. RIP.
