It's not a new observation at this point but that wild Noem/Lewandowski story in WSJ really brings home the extent to which all the Trump 2 cabinet-level goblins see their jobs as flying private, doing short-form video, and screaming at underlings. They all hate each other and none of them can read.

Subway Builder 1.0 finally launched and there was a city data update today, so rebuilding Milwaukee after my last one had some stuff break during the beta.
Excited to see how much commuter rail and local streetcars can juice the ridership.

And in both baseball and ice hockey, the 2nd tier of countries that regularly produce any professional quality players is still just another, what, 7-8? In soccer it's 50.

In both baseball and ice hockey, there are like 2-3 countries that produce much better players than everyone else. In soccer, there's not even close to one dominant country, like 8-10 produce the same amount of talent.

The reason the conservative equivalents to Hasan are such a problem is because there's a whole massive ecosystem of them, funded by billionaires. But lefty billionaires don't do that, for whatever reason. There isn't a huge lefty hot takes echo chamber. It's just one guy saying shit, you can ignore.

The number of American citizens of voting age who watch Hasan Piker content on a regular basis is ~100k. He is just a guy who says shit and has enough subscribers to buy a nice house. If you think he's a dickhead you can just ignore him. His takes are not a thing We Need To Talk About every day.
