"Being a woman is a way of being unseen, and this invisibility renders a certain confidence, a certain obliviousness to boundaries." --Kerry Howley, "Bottoms Up and the Devil Laughs"

And I suggest, ser, that you read "Pete the Cat: I Love My White Shoes." It's an excellent story about resilience and singing cool songs while wearing shoes. https://twitter.com/BitcoinTina/status/1514954370491764751

Mark Lane

Reading Gaeton Fonzi's "The Last Investigation" or Mark Lane's "The Last Word" there are always lines like "Steve was asked to testify before investigators but unfortunately before he could appear he shot himself three times in the head."

Thomas Bernhard's novel "The Loser," in which Gould is a character, was a biggie for me https://t.co/tWzwxtkiQM

It just needs to said every now and then that "Zero to One," co-written by Blake Masters and Peter Thiel, is one of the worst tech books I've ever read.

The Diversity Myth: Multiculturalism and Political Intolerance on Campus

David O. Sacks
Jacob Silverman 🤌🪨Jacob Silverman 🤌🪨

I wanted to follow up my article on David Sacks with a brief look at "The Diversity Myth," the book-length screed against campus identity politics and multiculturalism he co-wrote with Peter Thiel in the mid-90s. It's very much a precursor to the current anti-woke panic.
