Read that defense of Olivia Nuzzi and 1. The editors allowed the phrase “smack drab” to be published. And 2. they allowed the author to compare Nuzzi’s self-induced situation to lynching. Lynching!

What's the... point here, Steven? Is this your way of insulting me? Are you having some kind of random outburst? Do you need help pronouncing the word? With some guidance, I can better answer your question.

I can't stop thinking about the purported drug smugglers being murdered by the US military. The punishment for drug offenses isn't the death penalty. This is just bloodlust and men in suits playing with lives they don't care about. It's truly grotesque and gravely compromises this country.

The virulence of transphobia in the UK is so terrible. They are so relentless about it! (I am not exempting the US or the rest of the world. For now I am specifically thinking about the UKs particular brand of BS)

So this woman is being interviewed, gently, about the salacious memoir she wrote, and then can’t talk about what she wrote and falls back on the damsel in distress tactic? I cannot believe how do may people elevated her and continue to do so.
this is extraordinary. too many people in my profession have circled the wagons around someone who lacks the moral sense of a child

You would think, from his newsletter posts, that Ryan Lizza was some kind of saint in his former relationship. The gossip of it all is interesting enough but the lack of self-awareness on the author's part is WILD! He's not the good guy in this scenario.
