‘Inside Job’, a documentary about the genesis of the ‘08 financial crash, is online. It’s got lots of information, but it’s easy to follow and understand. (Plus it’s narrated by the delightful Matt Damon, who here lists his own films while people throw soft toys at him. If you like that kind of thing.)
‘Once, We Were (Not) Troy Davis…’ A lengthy, sprawling essay on Troy Davis, the personhood amendment in Mississippi, Occupy Wall Street, and the limits of language. It’s really very good indeed.
“Euouae, a 6 letter English word consisting only of vowels, also contains the most consecutive vowels”. Word trivia. Yummy.
