Bar Boys: After School ('25 Kip Oebanda): Has some really strong scenes, but a lot of it feels overwritten, becoming a series of florid pep talks that don't quite land right.

Pieces like this physically hurt me.

@albomp.bsky.social's lightning fast to condemn violence towards Jews in florid language, but his silence for 809 days since the genocide started .. is profound

Words "ceasefire" & "two state solution" are meaningless

many moons ago I heard Maud Gleason give a talk that interpreted the florid and literary behavior of the Hasmoneans in Josephus as evidence for how elites internalized florid and literary behavior and reproduced it in their lives... does this ring a bell with anyone?
