Fun, unassuming "fiction" piece on the origins of deuxmoi. Interesting in concept, repetitive in execution; like the narrator mentions in the novel the most interesting part of deuxmoi is its content that the arbiter reposts: hence, said arbiter is not a particularly interesting character to follow. I have only a passing interest in celebrity gossip, and am most interested in deuxmoi's ability to expose the celebrities who abuse their social capital to terrorize the working class. The part where I disagree is the ability that there is some possibility of acting as a celebrity "ethically" or with responsibility. They can only be more or less shitty. Still, the democratization of information on our modern royals/high society is a start.
