I must not fear.
Fear is the mindkiller.
Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration.
I will face my fear.
I will permit it to pass over me & through me.
& when it has gone past, I will turn the inner eye to see its path.
Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain.

One of my more controversial opinions is that the US needs to significantly raise taxes to the tune of a couple % of GDP right now, even before any expansive social democratic reforms, and that means you—yes you, dear highly educated professional—will need to pay up, not just nebulous billionaires.

This might sound harsh, and judgmental, but if video is your preferred way of getting information about a topic, you’re a fucking moron

This principle is applicable to so many things it’s crazy
I think one of the lessons that the huge success of congestion pricing in NYC is that charging a nominal upfront fee- even one far less the the levellized cost you are paying for elsewhere- is very good at cutting off the bottom 5% of bad behavior that makes things worse for everyone.

my father always told me to finish what you start

It is impossible to explain how incredibly undiscriminated against I have felt throughout my entire life as a white cis millennial man who passes as probably a Protestant; the only time I have ever felt meaningfully discriminated against in my life is when I have been identified as a Jew

It is genuinely incredible how arrogant Gentiles are in lecturing Jews about how we're liars and ignorant about our own experiences.
I'll say it again: if any other ethnic or religious minority said "please don't use this particular term or chant, you might not have bad intentions but it is deeply racist and threatening to us", the reaction would be mortified apology.
And that's without a mass terror event four days ago

Extraordinary courage from Ahmed al Ahmed, a Muslim, 43-year-old father of two, who bravely risked his life to save his neighbors celebrating Hanukkah.
Praying for his full & speedy recovery.
And so deeply inspired by his example.

Here's my October Massachusetts Eversource bill, delivery portion only (supply was another $74.68).
If they cut the MassSave budget from 4.5 billion to 4 billion, it will save me a whopping $1.37 per month on my bills. Very cool, thanks folks

Anyway, though all this seems bad for Trump, I think we have to consider the gains he will make in the modern Libertarian Party

It’s time for one staffer with nothing to lose to just dump everything online. You will be a hero forever. We will put up statues. Someone will write folk songs about you.

It was a foregone conclusion that for a large chunk of posters the shutdown was the ends and not the means and any end to it would be interpreted as a cave by feckless Dems.
That doesn’t mean that this particular end wasn’t a cave by feckless Dems though.

I'm hard-pressed to think of a non-Jewish Democratic politician who has spoken to Jews with more respect and empathy than Mamdani. The fact that many Jewish establishment orgs are going after him while staying relatively mum on resurgent Nazism is a disaster, both for American Jews and in general.
