Always a good feeling when your early call turns out to be right. "The name may still be unfamiliar to the general public, but..." --From a February 1979 NYT profile of Meryl Streep

Lead to a NYT Magazine piece by Mel Gussow:
Meryl Streep, Meryl Streep, Meryl Streep. The name may still be unfamiliar to the general public, but soon it should echo from coast to coast, like those classic trains, the Super Chief and the Twentieth Century Limited, rocketing over their tracks. In glass-towered talent agencies, Hollywood studios, and offices of Broadway producers — wherever deals are made and careers launched — people in the know are asking for Streep, more Streep. That's Streep as in sweep.

No powerful person in my lifetime has degraded American discourse and vilified, dehumanized and demonized those who disagree with him more than Donald Trump. He and his sycophants are blaming the left for the world they themselves built, and their complaints should not be given a moment's credence.

There's a really simple answer to this, and it's "In fact, you are a rapist. You were found legally liable for rape." Is there not one journalist who will say this to him?

Wrecking Ball for President 2028

DOJ writes counsel for plaintiff in the ballroom lawsuit demanding end to the suit: “Put simply, your lawsuit puts the lives of the President, his family, and his staff at grave risk.” Says DOJ will move to dismiss the suit in light of the WHCD unless plaintiff drops suit by 9am Monday.

RE: National Trust for Historic Preservation v. National Park Service, No. 26-5101 (D.D.C.)
Dear Mr. Craig:
Last night, there was another attempt on President Trump's life. This time, the shooter targeted President Trump at the Washington Hilton, the only ballroom in Washington, D.C. suitable to host large gatherings for the President, where another shooter targeted President Reagan 45 years ago. As history proves, that venue is demonstrably unsafe for the President of the United States because its size presents extraordinary security challenges for the Secret Service.
Yesterday's assassination attempt on President Trump proves, yet again, that the White House ballroom is essential for the safety and security of the President, his family, his cabinet, and his staff. When the White House ballroom is complete, President Trump and his successors will no longer need to venture beyond the safety of the White House perimeter to attend large gatherings at the Washington Hilton ballroom. The White House ballroom will ensure the safety and security of the President for decades to come and prevent future assassination attempts on the President at the Washington Hilton.
Put simply, your lawsuit puts the lives of the President, his family, and his staff at grave risk. I hope yesterday's narrow miss will help you finally realize the folly of a lawsuit that literally serves no purpose except to stop President Trump no matter the cost.
Enough is enough. Your client should voluntarily dismiss this frivolous lawsuit today in light of last night's assassination attempt on President Trump. If your client does not dismiss the lawsuit by 9:00 AM on Monday, the government will move to dissolve the injunction and dismiss the case in light of last night's extraordinary events. We will state your position as opposed if we do not hear back from you by 9:00 AM on Monday.
I am available today if you wou…

Please note: The list I chose was specifically about gay men, but if you want to read fiction about NYC in the first years of the AIDS crisis, the story you should start with, chronologically and thematically, is Susan Sontag's "The Way We Live Now." Consider that a bonus Bluesky recommendation!

Nobody ever explains why, if something was a diabolically effective scheme that had dozens if not hundreds of willing participants and was planned with airtight secrecy, it instantly got noticed by 100,000 people on the internet.

No, Vance and the people next to him react quite quickly.

Mark Harris@markharris.bsky.socialApr 26(source)

What's notable to me is that there are loud repeated gunshots, a roomful of people gets up in fear and alarm and starts to run out, and Trump....does not notice. It's not that he's staying calm; it's that he's missing it. I don't think I'm reading it wrong.
