☆ Opinion | You Can Win in Business Without Being Unhinged
  + stars: | 2023-09-27 | by ( Jessica Grose | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +2 min
I’ve read and watched many stories about the most heralded business leaders of the past few centuries. I’m not immune to the inherent drama of an arrogant rise, a spectacular fall or both. (For example, harassing job interviewees, firing people in front of crowds, attacking former employees of companies they purchased. Isaacson puts innovation first: This man might be a monster, but look at what he built! Whereas Mary Shelley, for instance, put innovation second: The man who built this is a monster!

☆ Opinion: ‘Red, White & Royal Blue’ and the power of political fantasy
  + stars: | 2023-09-09 | by ( Opinion Nicole Hemmer | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +7 min
That subplot puts “Red, White & Royal Blue” into a particular film and television genre: liberal wish fulfillment. Join us on Twitter and Facebook“The West Wing” is, unsurprisingly given its Sorkin-ism, much the same (observers on Reddit and elsewhere have noted Sorkin’s predilection for re-using the same lines and jokes). It was regularly cited as an inspiration for Obama staffers attracted to the show’s insider-y look at the West Wing and its characters’ fundamental decency. That emphasis on process is what makes the politics of “Red, White & Royal Blue” seem smaller than the fantasy of the electoral map hinging on Texas would lead viewers to believe. But process without vision is stultifying, and reflects more than the limits of onscreen political fantasy.

☆ The Broadway Star Phillipa Soo Sings Her Favorite Pop Song
  + stars: | 2023-04-12 | by ( Nancy Coleman | ) www.nytimes.com   time to read: +2 min
Phillipa Soo enjoys fantasy stories: “Lord of the Rings,” “House of the Dragon,” anything magical with kings and queens involved. That’s partly why, she says, she was drawn to this season’s Broadway revival of “Camelot,” based on the Arthurian legend and opening April 13 at Lincoln Center Theater. Soo, 32, stars opposite Andrew Burnap as Guenevere, King Arthur’s wife and ally — a role that’s long been associated with Julie Andrews, who originated the role onstage in 1960. Soo’s goal, then, is to make Guenevere “a real person,” someone driven above all by a desire to be loved. But this past year, she joined the “Into the Woods” Broadway revival as Cinderella, and then did a brief run as Sarah in “Guys and Dolls” at the Kennedy Center in Washington, D.C.
☆ From DeSantis to Trump, last week defined Republican Party in 2022

Ron DeSantis, using human beings as political props for a craven publicity stunt designed to stoke right-wing outrage toward migrants. Then, the current Republican Party standard-bearer found himself in even more legal hot water after the New York attorney general's lawsuit alleging Trump and his eldest children committed fraud. During climate week, Democratic Govs. The GOP has had other bad weeks in the past — and so has the Democratic Party. I left the ranks of the Republican Party because I was worried it had fundamentally lost its way.
