New from me: Furiosa is a.) a good movie b.) an attempt to process the dark, weird experience of living in the 2020s c.) an epic in the Beowulf or Gilgamesh mode, d.) all of the above.
The answer, of course, is D. This movie captures RIGHT NOW perfectly.

Every so often I see people in academia talking about how we 'all know' who not to trust, and I'm like - I do not know. I have never been in these conversations, for whatever reason. We do not 'all know' about the predators.

if you loved someone's writing and you now find out that their sexual ethics are awful to you...

Hoof marks of lambs or kids on a tile found in Pfongau/Austria.
