Google at its peak was basically the best information retrieval system in human history and they and every competitor decided going from there to “you didn’t want answers you wanted half-assed auto-complete 80%-wrong hallucinations” in a few years was the right idea

We can do away with it without a new Supreme Court. Nor do we need a constitutional amendment. There’s a far simpler way to get rid of Citizens United. Let me explain. https://robertreich.substack.com/p/how-to-get-rid-of-citizens-united

Amazon just sent me a refund for an item that was delivered last month.

On the one hand, they won’t miss it, but on the other, there’s honesty.

I tried to correct this mistake but they don’t make it easy and after trying a couple different ways, I am now keeping their money.

My hot take is that MTG has a gig on The View. Think about it. Alyssa Farah Griffin recently announced that she is having a baby in February. ABC is in it for the ad revenue and she’ll be controversial.

This is an accidentally honest answer. What she's saying in code is:
"The President is a misogynist, petulant bully. You've all seen him be a misogynist, petulant bully. And lots of voters out there are also misogynist or petulant or bullies and that's why they like him."
Q: What did the president mean when he called a reporter "piggy"?

LEAVITT: Look, the president is very frank & honest with everyone in this room. You'll all seen it yourself. You've all experienced it yourselves. And I think it's one of the many reasons the American people reelected this president

After another try, I remember why I gave up on the Nike Run Club app. It just doesn’t play nice with the Apple ecosystem.

I tried using Workout Builder today. I’m absolutely thrilled with it.

Why did the nation that used Christianity to justify slavery, ethnic cleansing of indigenous populations, racial segregation, homophobia and preemptive war elect a dumb racist crook who's the opposite of everything Jesus taught?

Is that the question?
The real question we need to ask ourselves as a nation is, WHY did so many people vote for this in the first place? Trump is the symptom. Not the problem.
Who would've guessed that "the Mark of the Beast" would wind up being just a clot of cheap spray-tan goo.

Last night, I started watching Frankenstein.

Spoiler?

Victor wakes up and the monster is looking at him while he sleeps. He shows him around the place, delighting whenever he seems to learn something, and then he puts him in shackles.

I turned it off. Victor deserves the beginning we see.

I miss the good old days when Sarah Vowell wrote books about history and then went on the Daily Show to talk to Jon Stewart about them.

I used to be fairly impressed with the Apple iPhone, watch and headphone ecosystem, but lately it seems that I just fight with it.

I wish Apple would get their shit together.

Soft secession

Legislation creates a Federal Tax Escrow Account in the state treasury. Instead of employers forwarding collected federal taxes to Washington, they send them to the state. The state holds the money in escrow. A legislative panel reviews federal spending for constitutional compliance.
Experts Say Blue States Can Stop Paying Federal Taxes. There’s Precedent
If we could use nullification for people to get high, why can’t we use it to protect human rights and stop fascism?
