“If Mangione refuses to be claimed by an ideology, or if he reveals himself to be a well-adjusted kid who became deeply mentally unwell, that may end up being more unsettling than if he is a calculated operator or fringe radical.” https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2024/12/luigi-mangione-internet-theories/680974/

I lost my taste for the middle in 2002 when I got food poisoning at a Red Lobster after dinner there with J.I. Packer. I don’t think I ever apologized enuf to him for that bad meal. [contains quote post or other embedded content]

Watching coverage of the hearing on transgender youth medicine didn’t make me cry. But there was a moment in today’s Bulletin recording on the topic where my eyes teared up enuf that it was hard to see my notes. Episode drops tomorrow, y’all.

We’re talking about Hunter Biden’s pardon this week on The Bulletin. What do you want to know about it?

This is infuriating to me. An example of horrific voyeurism and shoddy journalism. Asking a family member for a public response <4 hours after a violent death is immoral. No one in raw shock should be asked to speak on the record in a moment like this. https://www.nytimes.com/live/2024/12/04/nyregion/brian-thompson-uhc-ceo-shot

“No reasonable person who looks at the facts of Hunter’s cases … can reach any other conclusion than Hunter was singled out only because he is my son—and that is wrong.” Why make it harder for your team than it already is? https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2024/12/hunter-biden-pardon/680843/

"A big part of becoming a teenager is figuring out how to fit in. Sometimes that means papering over the stranger parts of your personality, suppressing your uncommon enthusiasms, but sometimes, if you’re lucky, you find a place where you are accepted despite your idiosyncrasies." Loved this. https://www.nytimes.com/2024/03/17/magazine/russian-language-kazakhstan.html
