I would argue the majority of the sentences in Rabbit, Run were bad, so we're gonna have to agree to disagree on this one.
An article from The Guardian with the headline "John Update: A Life in Letters review - the man incapable of writing a bad sentence"

I love that Appian has an IMDb page. Writer most famously known for Cleopatra (1963), but unfortunately he died before he could see it completed two millennia later.
IMDb page for Appian. Born 95, Died 165. From Alexandria Egypt, known for Cleopatra (1965).

One item on Yglesias's list of cures for the Democratic Party stuck out: "While race is a social construct, biological sex is not." That is nothing but polite pundit-speak for I would like for Democrats to engage more forcefully in anti-trans bigotry. It's a sentiment that was put in less polite terms by Democratic representatives Tom Suozzi and Seth Moulton, both of whom summoned the specter of "biological boys" playing sports with girls to make their case for bigotry as policy. A talking point like this doesn't emerge spontaneously. Its arrival is a pretty clear sign that there is a faction within the Democratic Party that is eager to turn trans people into scapegoats. It's hard to think of any reaction to Tuesday's election results that could be more reprehensible or strategically inert than this one. The Democrats just watched practically every segment of the electorate, in every state in the country, turn its back on the party, and one of the first ideas that's been floated for winning back all those millions of voters is We need to get more aggressive about hassling the small handful of trans children and teenagers in this country who are just trying to have fun playing sports with their friends. They're saying a lot more than that, of course. They are saying that their political imaginations cannot conceive of a world that doesn't require the constant sacrifice of someone else's rights and dignity. It's always easier to shove someone out of the tent than to investigate what's actually causing it to collapse, and now it is the trans community that has been deemed an expendable part of the coalition.
