Like most viewers of the film, I was chilled by the way Nazism creeps into the action, a venomous snake hiding among the partying Berliners, hissing but not yet striking….until the fangs are fully bared and it does. From “I Am Not a Camera: Watching ‘Cabaret’ in 2025” in BordoLines this week.

“Ageless”—to the extent that there is any meaning to the word at all—is a kind of shine that emanates from personality. Diane Keaton had that, even at 79, and so her having died is deeply strange, disorienting, intimately disturbing. I now know I’m mortal in some way that I didn’t know before.

Bro culture won the election, and took all the awards too. But in-between Trump 1 and Trump 2 there was the summer of “Barbie.” This Friday’s “Gone Girls” stack, compiled from stacks I wrote in 2023, recalls that time. susanbordo.substack.com/p/they-tried...

How Stupid Do They Think We Are? open.substack.com/pub/susanbor... I know people are tired of hearing about the Epstein Files. That’s just what Trump wants.

Bringing a Boy Into a House of Women open.substack.com/pub/susanbor... Hank has no idea where he ends & the rest of the world begins. He owns it all, galloping & sniffing & knocking glasses to the floor, oblivious to the difference between furniture & flesh, a “bruiser” metaphorically & literally.

His name is Hank, and it suits him. A lavishly illustrated stack about my life with doggies. susanbordo.substack.com/p/bringing-a...

open.substack.com/pub/susanbor... susanbordo.substack.com/p/they-sure-... It’s not just that Trump fears his own abuses might be revealed but that we’d see what total crap MAGA theories about the child-trafficking Dems are. (P.S. This was posted earlier this week; I’ll be updating soon.)

They Sure Don’t Care About the Girls. So Why Is MAGA-World So Upset? What is Trump So Afraid Of? Will the “Epstein Files” Just Go Away Like the “Access Hollywood” Tapes? open.substack.com/pub/susanbor...

If you appreciated “The Last Word” last night, you might like my latest post. @lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com is the ONLY msnbc host who dares to criticize media coverage with righteous fire, as well as astute analysis and deep humanity. susanbordo.substack.com/p/i-forced-m...

@lawrenceodonnell.msnbc.com Lawrence, you are the reason I stay up until 11, and last night was among your best. Where else can we go for righteous fire, astute analysis, and deep humanity? Sending my latest stack, which I hope you’ll find a moment to read. susanbordo.substack.com/p/i-forced-m...

Fact, Fiction, and Anne Boleyn open.substack.com/pub/susanbor... Just because “Wolf Hall” is high literature rather than pop culture doesn’t mean it’s more historically accurate than Anne of the Thousand Days or The Tudors.

Noah Wyle is a handsome man who has grown much more attractive as he’s aged. He’s also an antidote to the cruelty of those deciding for us whose life matters, who is worth saving, who is dispensable. You might say he’s an anti-Trump (who has, in contrast to Wyle, grown uglier the older he gets.)

open.substack.com/pub/susanbor... In this stack I discuss the meaning of cultural reticence to display or even say the word “penis.” And what do you know? Facebook removed the post, my link to the stack, and put me in “no posting in groups” prison, due to “nudity and sexual content.”

Bizarre “press conference.” Musk uses his kid as accessory. Trump looks alternately worried, crazed, asleep. Not a cute scene. Not even a dog would help. And press in attendance so very polite, as usual. Remember how they badgered and harassed Hillary and Biden?

Mainstream/corporate media: (1) Stop any and all blaming of the Dems for the election. I don’t want to hear about the “the price of eggs” ever again.

Thank you Marlene Talbott-Green! I was also thrilled yesterday to receive word that Sumter Coleman has honored me with a founding subscription. I’ll try to live up to their confidence in me! Snaps from my latest pieces are below. They aren’t clickable, but this is!: Susanbordo.substack.com
