He talked about Peale for years as one of his big three influences: his dad, Roy Cohn, and Peale. An unholy trinity of greed, grift, and vanity. [contains quote post or other embedded content]

Huh. Two of the buzzy movies of the fall are weird docs about complicated villains. To me this is very good news. (And no, “complicated” isn’t a euphemism for “less bad than they seem.” It means complicated.”)

An advantage of two kids 4 1/2 yrs apart is I get to rewatch Buffy with a kid seeing it for first time twice. Season 5, Dawn just learned—well, no spoilers. It’s only been a few decades since I first saw it in reruns, September 2001, the view from my new…

Thanks, Fergie. I just listened to the song. Not what I expected--but yes, although the song's not about actual wildfire, I could imagine listening to this as I was trying to drive out of wildfire in Nevada. That full page of the book of the sun gone into…

Now having seen Digger I find the bad and ambivalent reviews utterly depressing. It's so good it's like a 2025 movie, a year of great, weird films. I wonder if the response is like that to Don't Look Up--which was funny and smart and very good. Digger is…

thought I’d write about JWs, Jehovah’s Witnesses. I adore them, always stop to talk with them, wish I lived someplace where they’d knock on my door. I like big talk, life and death, sin and salvation, and I like vineyards, or, at least, the idea of them...…

And I'm grateful for this beautiful, painful, necessary book, which I think I may have the honor of being the first teacher to assign. Local VT/NH pals, mark your calendars--Janet will be speaking at Dartmouth Jan 21. [contains quote post or other…

Great reporting here from Mehrota on the latest ICE shooter, Brenden Cuni, who conveniently has an Instagram of his extensive gun fetish that used to be called "shooter.cuni." [contains quote post or other embedded content]

Worth noting here that Andrew Kolvet, spokesman for TPUSA, also endorses state-murder-as-spectacle, after defenders of Charlie Kirk insisted *his* call for such executions as mandatory viewing for kids was just banter (there's video; it wasn't) & that…

Hard to keep up but important to do so to remember why you fight but also to remember to fight--the temptation to think, "oh, he's gonna be toothless" because of bad polls or infirmity is too strong. He may be personally failing but he's still a wrecking…

Charlie Kirk gets his wish. He said, in earnest, that executions should be televised and mandatory for children as educational. [contains quote post or other embedded content]

Mainstream political journalists, committed even now to a horse race that Trump openly speaks stealing, call Rubio's Athens speech 2028 positioning. Yes, and--he'd like to be the contender if that becomes the option. But all his great man talk is designed…

Rubio's Athens speech was unabashedly white supremacist. Astonishing to me that reporting references his invocation of the Spartan "300" without noting the fetishized role the idiot movie--a fiction based on a fiction, a comic book--plays for the…
