in retrospect, it was amazing how much power people like Steven Pinker and Malcolm Gladwell had at their fingertips in the pre-social media era. They could write an airport book claiming potato chips killed more people than all historical wars combined and it would become universal received wisdom

Cool new hobby: watching the simulacrum of my formative years be constructed in real time.
The 90s almost killed me, let's not recall them quite so fondly.

Can we all just appreciate how much pressure Nate Silver is under to grift harder, with Kalshi coming to cable news networks? This is like an 8yo searching the house for odd jobs to do because their school bus was about to put $1-a-play Roblox in all the seatbacks.

I won't call the cops on you for robbing me at knifepoint, as long as I get to watch you enjoy what you buy with my money.

I love John Cena's strategy of being stunt-cast in enough prestige shows that eventually, a showrunner will see making him the lead as the ultimate stunt-casting.

It's really hard to study for comps when @themountaingoats.bsky.social drop an album this dense and fascinating. I'll have to live off the rich musical pleasures of it for a while until I can give the lyrics and orchestration the attention they deserve. Thanks, John &co., this is a real gift!

What an amazing tech solution to a real problem! An AI that helps us "get around" book bans by asking, "Have you tried complying with it and reading these similar but regime-approved works?"
Look how fast it moves! Look how much it breaks!

The central lie — the key dishonesty — of modern conservatism is that being judgmental about the ethnicity or language or culture of the person next door is fine and acceptable, but being judgmental of that attitude is elitist and arrogant and closed-minded. What vapid bullshit.
