living in the ICE era, watching grown babies freak the fuck out at very little, kill without thinking about it, i wonder if existential questions about "how could people perpetrate the holocaust" are reducible to "there were a lot of violent dickheads in German society waiting to be unleashed"

how well did debaathification go again
"Weiss also asked the staff of '60 Minutes,' the most-watched news program in the U.S., why the country thought its coverage was biased. Another person told me that Weiss had said she was pursuing a 'de-Baathification of CBS.'" — @claremalone.bsky.social @newyorker.com
Inside Bari Weiss’s Hostile Takeover of CBS News
The network’s new editor-in-chief has championed a press free from élite bias, while aligning herself with a billionaire class more willing than ever to indulge Donald Trump.

America has a housing shortage. Every single housing proposal you see that is not "build more housing" will have the primary effect of pushing up the prices of existing housing, and is therefore, in reality, a plan to enrich current homeowners. In conclusion, build more housing.
President Trump will issue a plan next week for letting Americans tap their 401(k)s for a down payment on a home, a senior White House official said Friday.

Tanking is the tax on-court competition pays to off-court cooperative restraining of labor costs
Even if it's NOT notably worse than it was years ago. The league's job should not only be to engage fans but create an excellent night-to-night product. And tanking, up or down, intentional or not, hurts that.
How the NBA Learned to Love Losing
Tanking used to be a scandal. Now it’s just good business.
The NBA keeps trying to fix tanking. It’s no longer a scandal—it’s a skill.
