USPS quietly changed its postmark rules — mail is no longer dated when you drop it off. The “official” date is when it hits automated sorting — sometimes days later
Which could have major implications for mail in voting — it’s a clever way to disenfranchise voters that’s going largely overlooked

Too many people are clinging to the notion that congress functions like the constitution supposes rather than dysfunction and abdication we see in reality. Once you get past this oversight, the logic that undergirds the whole system collapses.

In fact, folklore is resplendent with stories of simple heroes who defeat seemingly omnipotently powerful beings by simply convincing them to make themselves small and containable, and then simply pressing the stopper closed. Maybe we need more stories to meet this moment. And better readers.

Why is it that tech and AI boosters keep saying "you can't put the genie back in the bottle" when making arguments about AI's supposed inevitable dominance? Did they not read the story? The genie does, indeed, go back in the bottle. Maybe we should start there.

Talented white guys have no problem getting good jobs. Any white guy complaining about discrimination or wokeness is, by definition, a mediocre loser. If you can't succeed in any industry as a white guy, it's because you have serious personal defects or skill deficiencies worthy of self-reflection.

There’s something unspeakably shameful The United States letting people go hungry.
Not because its government doesn’t fix it —
but because tomorrow a few private Americans could, and never notice the cost.
