But what do we really mean when we call someone eccentric? The word renders a verdict of harmlessness: A person’s style, conduct, or mannerisms may be memorable, but not concerning. And truthfully, we need people who are a bit of a character (to use an equally common euphemism). Their difference reinforces our sense of stability, their peculiarity a necessary splash of color in a landscape of conformity. We love to hear about them, to speculate why they are as they are — the odder, the better. Whether in documentaries like Grey Gardens or the five stories collected here, well-reported tales of quirkiness always invoke a small thrill, vaulting their subjects out of the realm of local gossip and into a wider imagination.

However, it’s no accident that every entry here concerns individuals who are, to varying degrees, rich or famous. The sad truth is that the lives of the everyday working class are seldom celebrated, and least of all those whose habits and personalities fall outside of the bounds of “normal.” To quote a character in Ellen Raskin’s novel The Westing Game, “the poor are crazy, the rich just eccentric.” Wealth affords many privileges in life, among them the indulgence of oddity, and such indulgence is only magnified in the face of celebrity. Behavior that would be considered problematic becomes acceptable, even admired as a natural by-product of genius.

McAfee infamously said "If I ever Epstein myself, I didn't", and his wife has come out vocally to express she does not believe he committed suicide.

I watched the McAfee documentary and it was wild but the ghost writer guy they had on was so overly sincere. Like he’d written a script for a formulaic Netflix documentary and was acting the part of an interviewee. Also it needed longer. The ghost writer guy said “I saw the good he did” but we saw no example of that in the whole show. If they wanted to portray him as a complex man with good and bad they needed more episodes

Knowing nothing about McAfee and then seeing a post mentioning him as some guy who does quantum suicide (?) and fucks whales and then being like fuck it I need to google who this guy is just to learn he is the guy who made the McAfee antivirus software I currently use is a rollercoaster ride I wasn’t expecting tonight
