Christina, you are absolutely on point, as usual. I want to watch Lotus Eaters now. "Balance their chakras.." (puerile snigger) your "Karrimor leggings", "Telly Tubbies" and "catatonic nation bloated on consumption.." Pure class!
Great piece, thank you. And coincidental timing. Yesterday I was talking to my sister who has lived in LA for 35 years. She’s really enjoyed The White Lotus and didn’t really get why I’d not choose to be in the company of those people. As for the USA today… she can’t bear to talk about it for more than 30 seconds.
I reckon so. She and her husband adore their (very Dem) Silverlake community, their beautiful house, their mid-20s children - and are relatively materially unaffected at the moment, albeit horrified on every other level…
Fantastic article Christina. Spot on as always. I'm now wondering whether I should watch The White Lotus or just consider that The White House is more than enough?

You are such a sweetheart, Aisha. Thank you SO much for becoming a paid subscriber. It really means a great deal to me - as do your kind words. xx

Thank you, Naomi. It must be horrific living there at the moment. Is she planning to stick it out?

Interesting. The Brexit years here were bad enough, but this is on a whole other level. I'm just grateful to be on this side of the pond...

Many thanks, Brian. I did enjoy The White Lotus, but there are probably more soothing viewing options, if you're looking for pure escape...
