A roundtrip LAX-JFK flight in the late 60s was around $3K in today’s dollars. The people who wore suits on those flights were the people who regularly wore suits. Complaining about informally-dressed fliers is complaining that the wrong sorts of people are flying today.

Wait hang on maybe the military should be his praetorian guard
Again, every elected Democrat needs to put out a video stating exactly what Kelly and the others said. If ever there were a line to draw in the sand, it’s here. The military is not the president’s Praetorian Guard.
“Within the White House, Trump and his lieutenants aren’t planning on letting up…Trump has told some advisers that he wants RICO prosecutions and conspiracy charges leveled against the six Democrats, a source with direct knowledge of the matter tells Zeteo…

I grew up with several Mormon friends and they all ended up;

1. Extremely conservative or
2. No longer Mormon

Also absent from elite institutions? Um... No? Many are quite powerful in politics. They've also rewritten tourist understanding of Hawaii w/the "Polynesian" cultural center
My theory is that there are lots of powerful groups who dislike Mormons, real life mormons are heavily geographically concentrated, and they're almost completely absent from mass media or "elite" institutions. So they're easy to pick on, and most people dont actually know many mormons (if at all)

People really need to learn the value of saying “I was wrong”
The blog post is generally correct (poverty line is an outdated measurement that doesn't adequately capture actual cost of sustenance) but I'm charmed that this economist is discovering that long-standing left observations are true... and being precious about it www.yesigiveafig.com/p/part-1-my-...

Age verification is a tool for control/ deny access later

AI dependance retraining peoples brains to teach them how to think - long term being swayed to buy a product or vote or be more malleable
