Lindsey Graham was one of the great characters of modern American politics. Closeted southern queen, ruthless party mercenary, deranged Israel fanatic, always somehow kinda charming, shamelessly slippery.
Not much of a hero or anything but I’m sincerely sorry to see him go.
I can't really shit on anyone for liking bad books when literacy is on the verge of extinction. If the only book you read last year was the novelization of Kung Fu Panda 4 you're still more literate than 90% of America and half of booktok.

really funny to see the revisionism that takes place once an author gets exposed for being a terrible person because all of a sudden it becomes general consensus for some reason that their works were never good and anyone who read them was an idiot.
Wealth permits a morality to exist that would be incomprehensible to our ancestors.
E.g. Germany yesterday finally captured the stranded whale whose story had gripped the nation, and is now escorting him via barge back to the deeper Atlantic. An enormous, multiday operation.
