Anil DashOne thing I think about sometimes is the time a decade or so ago when the editor of the MIT Tech Review scolded me for being critical of Milo Yiannopolis because Milo “went to a good school” (some British shit that probably means a lot to them but I can’t even remember what it was) and therefore couldn’t actually be awful. That was one of those turning points where I realized I would never actually get elevated to a certain level of culture or visibility, and I was quite content with that.
Glyph@anildash isn’t like … every single book about “good schools” in Britain about how they’re mind-shatteringly disgusting hazing and abuse factories and they exclusively turn out horribly broken repressed people who are only able to pretend a sort of unconvincing performance of normalcy
