At a conference of energy executives, Joe Manchin told oil and gas executives that politicians are there to be sublet for their needs. The remarks come hard after Manchin helped doom the nomination of Sarah Bloom Raskin to become the top enforcement executive at the Federal Reserve. As far as Manchin was concerned, Raskin's primary disqualification was her belief in the obvious fact that the climate crisis is going to have inevitable and deleterious consequences for the nation's economy. This self-evident truth gave the miseries to the people of whom Manchin is happy to admit he is a sublet.

Insanely comfortable, stylish menswear from recycled materials? Yep. Code: esquire15 for 15% off. White sneakers: a wardrobe staple, an essential that just works for every man, no matter his MO. As a result, a slew of fashion companies—from behemoth retailers to streetwear labels to couture houses—shell them out regularly. Adidas, Nike, Reebok, and other footwear brands, of course, hold a greater claim to sneakers, and most of the market share, one with an evaluation of $20 billion. It is a competitive arena, no question. But despite so many options out there from so many storied, deep-pocketed challengers, Thousand Fell has created a style that blows many out of the water. In the third episode of WeCrashed, the addictive Apple TV+ series that chronicles the rise and fall of co-working giant WeWork, there is a scene so preposterous, so insanely over the top, that you know it has to be true. In it, a hoodie-clad Jared Leto, in (prosthetically enhanced) character as WeWork's Israeli co-founder and CEO Adam Neumann, stands at the top of a staircase in a gorgeous open-plan office, his eyes reflecting a neon "Hustle Harder" sign on the opposite wall. "Let the rest of the world give thanks on Friday!" he shouts to the crowd of young, shotglass-wielding employees arrayed before him. Which day of the week do they like best? "Thank God it's Monday!" the minions bellow, pumping their fists in the air before participating in a call-and-response chant in which Neumann yells "We!" and the group yells back "Work!" In fact, this was an accurate dramatization of WeWork's "Thank God It's Monday" team-building sessions, requiring employees to stick around well after normal business hours to booze it up with the boss. Nobody in the history of the universe has ever been this excited about working. I sat down to write this eighteen different ways. I thought, What does someone want to read about affairs? You've had one and you want to relate to something. You haven't had one but you fantasize about the girl with the keyhole shirt and the shoes your wife would call cheap. Her name starts with a C or a G. You know you and your partner will never have one, but you remember the time your wife, your husband, did not answer the phone for five car-accident hours. |
