Goat blog, or creative writing outlet? How about both.

I’m fascinated by all the people (or bots) screaming on-line that the Guthrie case is just a distraction from Epstein. Are you kidding me? This news coverage feels downright nostalgic. For one, we’re all so sick and tired of political drivel 24/7 that this feels almost wholesome, and for two, everybody I know listens to true crime podcasts. Anyone who habitually listens to true crime is eating this up. The other huge complaint on-line is whataboutism, “What about people who aren’t famous who go missing?” Oh, ffs. I’m not particularly interested in this case, but I do understand why it’s taking center stage. It’s mental bubble gum. Of course I feel bad for the family. But I don’t know the family, so it’s easy to hold it at arm’s length and work it like a puzzle.
