Great Washington Post nostalgia study. Adults think U.S. society was historically nicest and comfiest—most moral and close-knit, families happiest—whenever they happened to be little kids, and culture (music, movies, TV, fashion, sports, food) best whenever they were adolescents. wapo.st/3WXd9xS

A good meme to send people who are convinced we live in a computer simulation.

It's possible that the most fundamental message of all literature and art is "You are not alone."

I would retweet this with blaring neon if I could. Poetry and art helped me survive the worst trauma of my life, when my marriage abruptly collapsed in an incredibly ugly way.

@lindaholmes.bsky.social I just want you to know that I read this in its entirety out loud to a friend of mine today - and after 13 years it very much holds up. I used to reread it every year or two and I might have to start that again! www.npr.org/2011/04/18/1...

The Sad, Beautiful Fact That We're All Going To Miss Almost Everythingwww.npr.org We take a moment to reflect on being "well-read," and on the fact that the smartest thing you can do as a consumer of culture is admit that you'll never know everything.

NEW: I spoke with @attackerman.bsky.social about his viral Henry Kissinger obituary, the art of headline writing, and why it’s ok to be relieved when bad people die. Read here: www.thehandbasket.co/p/writing-an...

I have lived to FINALLY see “Kissinger is dead” night on social media, how could I ask for anything more

While I disagree with the burning Confederate flag part (because purchasing those flags only encourages the production of more of those flags), this is true. The fake mythology around Thanksgiving has overtaken the true meaning of the holiday: Killing traitors and being together.

Annual reminder that Thanksgiving has nothing to do with pilgrims and natives; it was instituted by President Lincoln in 1864 to celebrate Union victories, so if you really want to observe it properly you should burn a Confederate flag.

End of feed.
