A Twitter interaction.  The original tweet from Twi. (from RUNNING TRIZZ) reads:  "two movies. a year apart. same bitch. shoutout to Gen Z for teaching me this."  Below are two photos of actress Judy Garland. The first is from Everybody Sing (1938), wherein she's dressed in blackface. The second is from The Wizard of Oz (1939)  Below is a community note:  Readers added context  "Judy Garland, was a minor during both films, and had little to no autonomy during her MGM contract. During filming of Oz, she was forced to smoke up to 80 cigaret..."  Finally, above there's a quote tweet from jaboukie @jaboukie:  "they had that girl locked in the studio throwing snowballs of cocaine at her face while she charleston shuffled on 2 hours of sleep and a stomach full of barbiturates she didn't know wtf was going on"ALT

Louis B Mayer is the name of one of the pedophilic men responsible for the blackface, for sexually abusing judy garland, for tolerating the abuse of judy garland by other men, for creating and exploiting garland's cocaine addiction, and probably ultimately for her early death.

Name the problem.

I offer this as nothing more or less than personal testimony, but the single best inoculation I’ve found against the doomerpill is Ecclesiastes. Not because it’s a feel good book or offers any particular comfort or assurances, if anything it does the opposite. But getting told “nothing matters, the world is corrupt and full of injustice, worldly pleasure is fleeting, humans are idiots who never learn (myself included), and the future is uncertain and frightening; now dust yourself off, appreciate your life and its simple pleasures, fear God, and try to live as rightly as you can” by a guy who lived 2000-odd years ago really beats you over the head with a sense of perspective. The troubles of our time are not exceptional. There is nothing new under the sun.
