@JBKSchlossberg Languid, long, limb-y, fox-like

[Adam Tooze @adam_tooze]

Bizarre! Jaw-dropping. Truly a testament to how of out touch the American political and media class are. The @nytimes has been nothing short of an embarrassment!

@daniel_dsj2110 perhaps a bracing glance at Counterpunch

@blgtylr Until you get going, the Napoleonic naval novels by Patrick O’Brian are great. There’s also an engrossing LRB essay about him, describing the invention of his pseudo-Irish identity

Do you know how many water pollution crimes there are in your city? The local news doesn't report on it every time a wealthy company dumps chemicals, just when someone shoplifts deodorant. The biased curation of anecdote affects which law violations we perceive as urgent.

A courageous beginning!

Superb ⁦@ryanlcooper⁩ review citing ⁦@rauchway⁩ on Obama’s mistaken understanding of 1932-33 and its fateful role in the “culmination of neoliberalism” as it played out in 2008-9. (Parallel story on confronting war.) https://t.co/ZnCA6DOXWL

“Trump may be losing the election, but he is not the aberration in the history of America . . . much of the world would like to believe. At least 70 million Americans voted [for him], despite witnessing his constant lying, open racism and lethal incompetence” (Patrick Cockburn)

@AnandWrites loll, what a bizarre and fantastical outlook. Thanks for keeping him on the hook
