the thing about the tates and trump and musk is that what they offer is the illusion of control and dominance and mastery. in truth, they are absolute slaves to their passions and their worst instincts, and they have paid for it in that they are literal degenerates

Look, we tried to warn people. At this point, the only way out is through. Trump will precipitate a collapse and only then can we rebuild towards a better future. Our goal is to minimize the number of people we lose along the way. Build community, help others. Resilience is all we have.

Far right accounts will be hunting for people on social to post about and being attention to so they get their documents revoked. Far right accounts like libs of tiktok are essentially private stasi on the payroll of the oligarchs.

They thought they had punched their ticket to the top of the financial world and they’re finding out that nobody actually took them seriously, they were just using them to make some easy money. The finance guys are smart enough to see what crypto is, the problem is the crypto guys aren’t.
I’m not sure people quite grasp how much of the crypto world is reacting to the Trump memecoin launches.

my 'liberal pessimism' thesis: we have a fundamental asymmetry between a party that has goals which require stable frameworks and durable institutions for accomplishing public governance, and a party whose goals involve the general promotion of dysfunction for private advantage.

Just cause I’m not in the club anymore doesn’t mean I forgot what’s in the book!
Something the Bible thumpers always overlook. The Bible consistently put the safety and comfort of guests including immigrants as the most important duty of a person. The parable of Sodom and Gomorrah was actually about a city being bad hosts for their guests, not sodomy.

Housing is your meat and potatoes. It's everything and until we stabilize those prices, CA will continue to lose people.
One thing to note, I recently was involved in a loan for a CA couple relocating to Texas. Their total tax burden WENT UP.

one thing i’m stuck on is this idea that “masculine” energy means license to act like a chud in public, as opposed to more traditional notions of public masculinity, such as those that put a premium on the performance of integrity, honesty, honor and generosity.

Everyone who is like, "Omg he drank three gin and tonics for BREAKFAST!," have you considered maybe he carries the soil from Laguardia airport in his pocket so airport rules always apply?
This was a year ago. Ordered and drank 3 gin and tonics for breakfast on a workday. Sexual assault, ran two nonprofits into the ground, racist.
Republican Senators are actually prepared to turn over the most lethal army in the world to this man. Because they’re afraid they’ll be….”primaried”??

Everything is dumb and terrible, and it's gonna be dumb and terrible for a while. It’s important to do what you can to make it less dumb and terrible, and it's important to find a way make some contentment for yourself in spite of everything being dumb and terrible.

When you have 250 years of only needing to compete with 30% of the population, you can get pretty comfortable skating through that system.

There is no such thing as “masculine energy.” It’s imprecise because it’s a euphemism. He is saying there are too many women in the workforce.
My favorite part of Zuckerberg's Joe Rogan interview is when he suggests there is not enough masculine energy at his company, where two out of every three employees is a man.
