...even if Q told you to do it. Even if all your friends online are doing it. Even if that guy from Celebrity Apprentice thinks it might be cute. It's not, and you definitely should not be involved.
This week we have thoughts about the new year, the new semester, and honestly mostly just the coup. How do we reconcile meaningful calls to #DEFUNDTHEPOLICE while simultaneously deriving unmitigated joy from watching white terrorists discover they're on the No-Fly List? Can this circle be squared or nah? And is it healthy to spend as much time thinking about Parler as James has? Plus some thoughts about what it feels like on the other side of the job market (Nic has the power!), the moral imperative to revisit the student loan debt conversation, and why the price of books, much like the rent, is TOO DAMN HIGH. Yes, we do recommend some readings, but honestly we mostly just recommend staying off the internet for a bit. Except for this show, obviously. It's a safe space.
