This, in brief, is what it's about.

I read it twice and saw the film also. No one can skewer pompous folks in whatever bubble they occupy the way Wolfe did.
You'll be laughing out loud.

I remember reading the Right Stuff but I know I didn’t read Bonfires. Well, I do like skewering the pompous!

I see Oberlin’s insurers are balking at paying out for Oberlin’s settlement. Some sort of dispute over whether they acted out of conscious malice versus negligence in their attacks on the bakery. The dean who led the charge is now employed by a different school.

Sounds like the Johnny Depp trial. Whatever her name was, insurance company, sued her, as she was found guilty of malice, and she wasn't supposed to be covered by insurance.

I heard that episode. Too bad the patriarch of the bakery died with this lawsuit hanging over his head.

I would think this serves as a cautionary tale to universities everywhere that send their faculty out to harass “racists “and “terfs” and etc.

I wonder what our insurance expert here has to say about this multi million dollar settlement?
