On point as always. In Theroux’s new doc and this clip this guy also comes off as the one who’s the least comfortable in the role. Like he still has some bit of a conscious the others don’t, he knows he’s grifting and his attitude is bad for society but he can’t give it up now, he’s addicted

This is just the left version of MAGA’s “they’re all corrupt, but at least Trump is honest about it” claim. Corrosive anti-institutional cynicism. Many elected leaders are sincere and thoughtful in their views and work hard to know their communities. But that’s less fun than being angry all the time

it feels like a lot of Dems are suddenly trying "we can run a robust social safety net by only taxing rich people and corporations" messaging and that is

a) not a great message, in that we should all contribute

b) not actually true, math-wise

This news is floating around so I’m compelled to say this is apparently a design approved under Biden referencing some other historic design

There were other coin designs that were planned to be implemented but cut for “DEI”/featuring Black people, that’s the real story here it seems

you may fly over a land forever; … bomb it, atomize it, pulverize it and wipe it clean of life—but if you desire to defend it, protect it and keep it for civilization, you must do this on the ground, the way the Roman legions did, by putting your young men in the mud

Homeownership is fine! I’m one! But if my neighbor wants to build something that doesn’t impact my health—like splitting their lot into a bunch of other homes—why should I have the power to stop them?

“Mostly” is right, at least there’s one woman in the cafe car on my train to LA who was weirdly excited to talk about the fact we killed “a bad man”

Yeah lady I bet this accounting student train attendant is no longer living in daily fear and is living a better life now

Ossoff’s statement is 1000x stronger than Schumer-Jeffries. This is a moderate Jewish Senator from a Trump state. The split isn’t moderate vs progressive, but leading vs poll-reacting

I wonder if the half of America that voted for Trump or who secretly think what’s happening is right will ever even hear that the first casualties were almost 100 school children. We assume major news like that is widely reported, but American friends tell me their parents literally do not know

It’s 2037. We’ve reached AGI. Mayors everywhere seek time with the Machine to gain insight: “Finally with AI we will solve our housing crisis! Oh AI Oracle, tell us the way!”

“Build more housing, everywhere, according to the thousands of studies I read”

“… Ok but what if it’s tall?”

I’m screaming, begging, crying, throwing up with these people, you live in the most populated county in the country! It’s been almost 50 years, at some point I will also have to face my own mortality and accept that places change. Man can never cross the same river twice etc.
