@EsotericCD Probably true. But there are sections of “Pale Fire” that I know I could never equal as a writer. And he did it without being a native English speaker. It is just some breathtaking prose. And poetry even in the Shade sections.

It took me a long time to realize that Vladimir Nabokov, aside from being a great writer, was also an intolerable pedant and a bit too full of himself.

@annakhachiyan What was the best art that the right produced in the most recent pre-social media period––say, 1990 to 2014 (or whatever alternative dates you think are better, if you object to these)?
English
I think sadly the lack of good art or culture in our age has more to do with the fact that social media lets people experience the rewards of creativity without having to endure the process. The right is not any more driven by hatred and resentment than the left. This is your particular narrativization that you need for your psyche for whatever reason.
Pedro L. Gonzalez@emeriticus
The new right can’t and will not ever produce any real art or culture that will stand the test of time because it is fundamentally driven by hatred and resentment and a movement based on those things cannot create anything beautiful or worthwhile. It is a gutter movement. It lives in an imaginative and moral sewer from which nothing good can ever emerge.

@JimOrangeenyz @RepShriThanedar @bennyjohnson Agreed. Proud of you to have the courage to say this. Benny Johnson should resign.

@RepShriThanedar Well he does have a huge audience compared to you. If you can’t take criticism of your ridiculous, weak policies, maybe resign. @bennyjohnson

My constituents elected me to represent them, not to be lectured by a 2 bit influencer who got fired from Buzzfeed for plagiarism and named in an indictment for spreading Russian propaganda.
Benny Johnson@bennyjohnson
This isn’t AI—this is Rep. Shri Thanedar (D-MI), and he’s calling to give illegals free rein in the US with his “Abolish ICE Act.” Should Thanedar, a man born in India who struggles to speak English, really be dictating America’s immigration policies?

As a former Senate Committee staffer, I’ve seen my share of contentious hearings. I’ve also testified before Congress myself. This is easily among the best responses by a witness to a member looking for fundraising sound bites. Kudos to my distinguished colleague @David_J_Bier.
