as someone who pushes hard against conspiratorial thinking in my professional and political life, it is deeply irritating when, on top of the untold human harms Epstein caused, it turns out he was at the center of at least half a dozen actual conspiracies

This is difficult news to share: 4 well knowm people in our community that some of us consider close friends - aren't real. Sadly, I was recently made aware of a catfishing operation involving these 4 accounts. I'm sharing this publicly due to the number of people affected.

I don't think people appreciate enough the fact that, at a time where global warming was approaching an inflection point yet renewable energy was finally becoming economically viable, we decided to squander that opportunity because literal death cultists decided we needed Infinite Bullshit Machines.

The genocide of European Jews was unique in scope and methodology, yes, but 5-6 million others died in the camps or at the hands of roving execution squads.
It's a human tragedy, not authoritarian mythology. And invoking it for genocide apologia is an insult to 11-12 million murdered souls.

I suspect Timothy Snyder will be remembered as one of the defining thinkers of Our Shitty Moment. And not just politically — in some ways a symptom of deeper-rooted problems.

I love two-lane highways. They say something about the way things used to be, and about areas that don't have a lot of people. On those two-lanes at night you get the sense of moving into the unknown, and that's as thrilling a sense as human beings can have.

Billionaires should be outlawed. No one should be able to hoard enough money to influence government outside of their vote. A hard wealth cap is essential for democracy, alongside Medicare for All and UBI.

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.
