Former nice person, now just pissed off.
When I was in school, I learned that one of the things that Made America Great, and attracted investment from international companies was stability. The structure of our civil work force made it nearly bribe and corruption-proof. 1/3

TLDR: What is a good replacement for or supplement to "Escape From Freedom?"

One of the most important books I've read is Erich Fromm's "Escape From Freedom." It's a great look at why some nations, after being freed from oppressive governments, drift back to authoritarianism.

From a friend: Please repost and spread the word!

During a digital/virtual meeting Musk had with other tech professionals in the government a revolution began. It’s subtle, but I think we really have something here.

Cue the petty.

The DoD just cancelled Black History Month observances.
At least once a week, in the morning I pick up two slugs (think organized hitchhikers) in so I can get in the HOV lane for free and drop them at the Pentagon - reverse at night.

Biden pardoning Hunter is the right thing. Change my mind. No, nevermind. If you disagree, shut the fuck up because you are not paying attention to what is coming. And now I'll return to my regularly scheduled head-in-the-sand time.
