it's nice to know that the crisis facing every blue state budget is being met with the same braindead tax aversion as our counterparts across the pond
Just seen another 'but you don't get it! Raising income tax would be unpopular!' It certainly would.
I just am asking anyone who posts that to look at the currently planning departmental spending allocations going into 2028-9 and to explain why they think the *current* plans will be popular:

I know I keep saying this but I can't express how proud of I am of Mattie. This book is such an accomplishment, a huge leap forward in her work, and it'd be a shame if you didn't have a copy.

Utterly ludicrous framing from @nytimes.com here, treating Pete Hegseth's arguments as if they're legitimate. The casual reader will be left with no inkling whatsoever of how unusual and corrupt an abuse of the process this truly is:

Wow. It is tobacco all over again.
"According to the brief, Meta was aware that millions of adult strangers were contacting minors on its sites; that its products exacerbated mental health issues in teens; and that content related to eating disorders, suicide, and child sexual abuse was frequently detected, yet rarely removed."

Something about “saying the quiet part out loud” that seems to be really working is how disarming it’s been of people pointing out what they’re doing.

there's a container ship fire off the port of la and the harbor commissioners are publicly begging the sec. of transportation to return their calls but he's on the news riffing about what you wear on a plane
Sean Duffy: "Dressing with respect -- whether it's a pair of jeans and a decent shirt, I would encourage people to maybe dress a little better which encourages us to maybe behave a little better. Let's try not to wear slippers and pajamas as we come to the airport."

One of my favorite takes on this website by the Ball Knowers was that the year plus of cracking down on anti-genocide youth movements in this country, on campuses and otherwise, had no effects whatsoever on turnouts come November nor in general for mobilization etc. Goldfish levels of myopia.
I think @brendannyhan.bsky.social is exactly right in this piece, but I’d go one step further here. Elites very explicitly told young people to sit down and shut up. Society punished them for standing up for their beliefs, and targeted and vilified the organizers. Now we need need them.

I once knew a Federal bank examiner, and one time someone asked him why we had to KEEP inspecting banks over and over. He basically said every new batch of business school grads invents bank fraud from first principles.

The underlying cause of every bubble - debt masquerading as financial innovation - depends on not just short financial memory & speculative neophytism, but reinventing jargon of finance, like how each generation of kids has new ways to say same things.

It's so insane to me that within the last 5 years the NHS has fallen behind the AMERICAN healthcare system, as in all the predictive OECD indicators on care and health are now more positive broadly in America (including uninsured....), and they're still obsessed with trans issues.
I thought I had low expectations for Kier Starmer but he is like an order of magnitude worse than I expected. arguably worse than his Tory predecessors on several issues www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

Nvidia Jensen Huang said that if Nvidia hadn't turned in a strong quarter, "the whole world would have fallen apart." Have any of you stopped to say "thank you"? Or are you too busy being broke haters and losers on the internet?

She has it exactly backwards. The domestic deployments to date are a much weaker case for being so manifestly illegal as to justify refusal; that's a high bar. The boat strikes are outright unambiguous murder, everyone in that chain down to the one pulling the trigger has had a clear duty to refuse.
Sen. Slotkin said today—to my surprise—that she's unaware of any illegal orders *so far*.
