A lot of Holocaust denial seemingly doesn't really question the larger events, but tries to chips away through doubt on lesser specifics (numbers slightly off or how they apply to different groups, log errors, legality issues, even "justifications" due to Germany's financial state post-WWI, etc.). I'd caution against doing similar dismissals when claims like genocide are made now.

Accompanying book. There's also a related Fashioning San Francisco: A Century of Style show one floor up.

I like the Steinway choice, but would probably go with the whisper songs of fembots.

I kinda like Taylor's new era. F—k it if I can’t have him. F—k it if I cant have us.

Hope it's a great day!

OJ had family and other visitors sign NDAs and executor of his estate says he will work to prevent a payout of a $33.5 million judgment awarded to the families of Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ron Goldman! https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/oj-simpson-dead-trial-kardashian-murder-wife-latest-b2527669.html https://www.wnct.com/news/national/ap-executor-of-o-j-simpsons-estate-plans-to-fight-payout-to-the-families-of-brown-and-goldman/

Chechnya is banning music that's too fast or slow "Musical, vocal and choreographic" works will be limited to a tempo of 80 to 116 beats per minute (BPM) to "conform to the Chechen mentality and sense of rhythm," said Dadayev, according to the Russian state-run news agency TASS. "Borrowing musical culture from other peoples is inadmissible," Dadayev said, per a translation by The Guardian. "We must bring to the people and to the future of our children the cultural heritage of the Chechen people. This includes the entire spectrum of moral and ethical standards of life for Chechens." https://www.npr.org/2024/04/09/1243632570/chechnya-music-ban-bpm https://www.theguardian.com/world/2024/apr/09/chechnya-bans-dance-music-either-too-fast-slow
