Woman attacked by raccoon. Man attacked by otters. Canal attacked by boat. Computer security attacked by Java. Birds confirmed real.
Ten Second #Longreads: “Rothko at the Inauguration” by Richard Warnica, in Hazlitt. What do Mark Rothko and the Trump inauguration have in common? Nothing! Read this if you’re interested in the legal wrangling following Rothko’s death or the Knoedler Gallery forgery scandal.
