I saw one of the best movies of the year this weekend -- and almost no one knows it exists. It's @NicoleNewnham The Disappearance of Shere Hite, about a woman very famous in the 1970s and 1980s for researching sexuality who just vanished into obscurity. 1/

Trump statement on Emmer, whose speakership he shivved today: “… He never respected the Power of a Trump Endorsement, or the breadth and scope of MAGA" has a distinctly faschey vibe.

Just listened to as much of the @fordnation press conference as I could stomach. For a guy who personalizes everything, it’s hard to accept that this $billions giveaway was handled by a single political staffer. Is there anyone in Ontario who believes this sh1t?

1/ The bitter feud between Yevgeny Prigozhin, Russian Defence Minister Sergei Shoigu and Chief of the General Staff Valery Gerasimov appears to have originated in Syria, as an interesting personal account by Prigozhin of the February 2018 Battle of Khasham illustrates. ⬇️

At the urinal in the bar: A guy two down says - “Can you believe they’re running Barack Obama again?” I say “What?” He says “Barack Obama is running for President”. I say “WTF” He says “No, but these days, anything could be true?” He was a complete stranger, and a funny guy.

1. On the Texas shooter. I understand everyone jumped on the "he's a Nazi" train, because those on the right tried to claim someone with a name like Mauricio Garcia couldn't be a white nationalist, but I think in this politicized back and forth, some other analysis was lost.

Today's Twitter threads (a Twitter thread). Inside: SVB bailouts for everyone - except affordable housing projects; and more! Archived at: pluralistic.net/2023/04/15/s… #Pluralistic 1/
A glass-and-steel, high-tech office building. Atop it is a cartoon figure of Humpty Dumpty, whose fall has been arrested by masses of top-hatted financiers, who hold fast to a rope that keeps him in place. At the foot of the office tower is heaped rubble. On top of the rubble is another Humpty Dumpty figure, this one shattered and dripping yolk. Protruding from the rubble are modest multi-family housing units.

Folks it's been settled. Hummus originated in Syria, as per our latest essay by @habboush. Make hummus, not love newlinesmag.com/newsletter/t…
The True Origins of Hummus

The True Origins of Hummus

A New Lines scoop (pun intended) has placed the magazine squarely in the middle of an historic tug-of-war over the origins of hummus.

It's been said that even the most stable democracy is only a few years away from dictatorship, and democracy is therefore a constant battle. Well, even the most stable dictatorship is no more than a few weeks away from collapse. It too survives through a constant battle.
