i think we should have a moratorium on anyone who went to an ivy league writing personal essays. in fact i think the only people allowed to write essays should be former drug addicts who went to community college (me)

New Caroline Calloway essay is maybe the bleakest thing I’ve ever read in my life

Being a billionaire must be insane. You can buy new teeth, new skin. All your chairs cost 20,000 dollars and weigh 2,000 pounds. Your life is just a series of your own preferences. In terms of cognitive impairment it's probably like being kicked in the head by a horse every day

[Joshwelt @weltszzn]

Ideally life should feel like Animal Crossing. You’re hanging out. Going to the beach. Eating fresh fruit. You are a little in a hole financially but it’s fine

Encyclical Against the Machine

[NYTPitchbot @DougJBalloon]

I converted to Catholicism last week. Here’s why the Pope’s woke encyclical is a disgrace.

It's understandable. I would not want to read economics papers either

Does anyone have any opinions about the Emily Wilson translation of the Odyssey?

[jon repetti @pourfairelevide]

cannot even begin to imagine what it was like to hear Born to Run in 1975 — the synthesis of so many lines of American popular music & mythology, jumping the shark again and again and sticking the landing every time

I feel like we moved on a bit too quickly from the fact that a hacker group with a Pokemon-based name ("Shiny Hunters") held the course software used by 8,000 schools hostage during spring finals and successfully extorted the parent company for ten million dollars

community college challenges every classist notion of education and academia and having access to it has changed my life. it should be preserved, supported, and destigmatized with everything we have. hard to name a more precious educational resource for those over 18.

[nathan @nathanrobii]

i think a solution to the historical accuracy problem for the odyssey would be to set it in the 1930s in the south and change their outfits to something like prison uniforms, and maybe cast someone like george clooney instead of matt damon
