“Balenciaga momma, I know you heard about her. Spoil me in Prada, I’m worth every dollar. The one you made, could keep ‘em. I need Chrissy Teigen, know a bad bitch when I see one. Tell Rih-Rih I need a threesome. I’m his favorite type of chick, boujee, bad, and thick. I could buy designer, but this Fashion Nova fit all that ass.”
–Joan Didion (1934-2021)

Social problems present themselves to many of these people in terms of a scenario, in which, once certain key scenes are licked (the confrontation on the courthouse steps, the revelation that the opposition leader has an anti-Semitic past, the presentation of the bill of particulars to the President, a Henry Fonda cameo), the plot will proceed inexorably to an upbeat fade. Marlon Brando does not, in a well-plotted motion picture, picket San Quentin in vain: what we are talking about here is faith in a dramatic convention.
