the most moral newsletter in the world
you can just say anything these days!
Hi!
Thanks for opening this email / reading this post.
Resisting the urge to pretend there is no news:
“Many of us like to ask ourselves, ‘What would I do if I was alive during slavery? Or the Jim Crow South? Or apartheid? What would I do if my country was committing genocide?’ The answer is, you’re doing it. Right now.” - Aaron Bushnell, 2/25/2024
A brilliant piece by photographer Dina Litovsky about moralism in the place of cultural critique and the role of an artist as witness.
Some good news for those of us who find comfort in the infinite vastness of our universe.
I’m not going to tell anyone if I win the lottery, but there will be signs.
For those of us not on TikTok, here is an explainer on the most recent viral blow up about a lying ex, laid out by an extremely engaging storyteller. It has everything: arena football, a condiment manufacturer, “a dark-blue BMW X5 with cognac interiors.” Reesa Teesa is our modern day Homer.
Tunes to start the week with:
There’s a new ScHoolboy Q single that goes extremely hard. London pop singer / DJ Shygirl has dropped a super fun little EP, 16 minutes of perfect club jams in the style of early aughts trance and house music. And SZA has blessed us with a dreamy new track!
