Love The Firm. I especially love the fact that one of the senior hooligans is called, "Oboe." 'Why' someone ends up named after a classical instrument is less the point than its authentic representation of the sheer weirdness of the nickname process.

"Texting each other was expensive. Messages were limited to 160 characters. Social media hadn’t yet demolished our sense of reserve, and sending nudes was a subplot from a speculative dystopia." @d_whitehouse returns to journalism on explosive form.

"The “Grandpa Gang,” a clutch of French hoodlums in their 60s and 70s who, in 2016, disguised themselves as police and robbed Kim Kardashian in Paris without - they claim - having any idea who she was, is a tale of our age, as well as our aged." open.substack.com/pub/preciseins…
