FOUR MOTHERS, very charming, very Irish, neurotic gay writer with difficult mother hall of famer. Distinguishes itself by its very clear (and very funny) articulation of the world(s) James McArdle's Edward opts out of, and the anxieties that are inherited and then transformed into work.

who cares about what people are "performatively reading". 1) that's not what that word means and 2) at least they are reading!

was recently on a lousy date and i had said i had “seen the new PTA movie” and the guy was like “???”

Sam Adams @samadams.bsky.social · 4d

I live in less of a culture-vulture bubble than you might imagine, but I've still been a little taken aback to encounter people recently who a) don't know who directed the new Leo movie or it it's out yet and b) don't even know who Paul Thomas Anderson is

why can't they do that thing at the Sphere like those new TVs with the ambient mood lighting around the borders instead of whatever the Wizard of Oz thing is? I mean, that would be less annoying. just vibey light patterns and the movie untouched by Google AI engineers' hands.

i am pro Orientalist excess and exotic maximalism if it's done really well, if there's creative lunacy and aesthetic virtuosity on display that defies an attempt to reduce it to good/bad politics. Katy Perry could never!!!

repost this if an editor has ever saved you from yourself

An actual hot take: Too many authors are afraid of editors watering down their voice or whatever and not afraid enough of editors letting you put any old slop on the page.

Greta Thunberg, deported to Greece, says the targeting of the Sumud Flotilla is "not the story" @teenvogue.com — instead, she says:

"Israel once again violated international humanitarian law by preventing aid from getting into Gaza while people are being starved.”

Greta Thunberg On Her Detention: I'm "Not The Story" — It's Israel Violating International Humanitarian Law

“I could talk for a very, very long time about our mistreatment and abuses in our imprisonment. Trust me. But that is not the story.”
