This feels like some consultant built an AI-generated version of Obama. “Make it pragmatic, non-threatening, Benetton-shaded, but take the charisma down to zero.”

i strongly, strongly believe that good writing is downstream of clear thinking and a strong understanding of the subject matter at hand. without fail, tortured writing comes from writers who don’t know and can’t think clearly about anything.
Oh man! This paragraph is brutal. The best thing about this review is it's not trying to be mean. It's just listing how bad the writing is.

I dare say I agree. When I hear these tech bros talk about their technologies' effect on society, it sounds like some kind of medieval king talking to their subjects.
People this much out of touch with everyday peopes' lives shouldn't have so much power over them.

Why did it take several days for Trump’s “Quiet, Piggy” insult of a female reporter to gain traction in news coverage? Because it happened on a Friday night, when many journalists had started their weekend. And because, sadly, he's trained the media to think accepting his insults is part of the job.

For the party that claims democrats don’t know what a woman is, they seem to be having a lot of trouble defining what a child is.

Added note: For people who think life was better back then, remember that this show was about a guy who had to pretend to be gay so the landlord wouldn't kick all of them out for cohabitating.
In 1977.
This show was wildly popular and ran until 1984.

This is, essentially, a stealth repeal of Obamacare
"A development that appeared to break the logjam: Republicans proposed that healthcare funding be provided directly to households rather than used to pay for a 1-year extension of ACA subsidies. That involves sending federal money into FSAs instead of insurance companies" www.wsj.com/politics/pol...
Republicans Pitch Alternative to ACA Extension to End Government Shutdown
A proposal by GOP senators to send money directly to consumers’ health accounts rather than to insurance companies showed signs of breaking a stalemate on negotiations.

Went back to the history of the Sicilian Mafia to illustrate something obvious but worth stating explicitly: The Trump administration behaves like an organized crime syndicate running a protection racket, not a representative government www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

Such an important point. Life is unpredictable.
She wasn't wrong, but the bank does not give you as good of an interest rate if you don't put money down. You also have to pay private mortgage insurance.
I did not go along with her idea and put down 20%.
If housing prices dip, I would not be underwater if I had to sell the house.

No team in the NFL except Dallas would hire Jerry Jones as their GM today. Very few of those teams have not seen a conference championship game in almost 30 years.
Pretty obvious.
