"its not clear what kind of move I was trying to do" is one of my all time favorite tweets, but as a public service I share this tumblr collection of the entire 26-tweet reply chain it was part of (courtesy of haywire4) www.tumblr.com/haywire4/173...

You know in movies where they kinda wipe their hand gently over the face of a dead guy and it closes their eyes. It would be a good gag if they did that on a guy with glasses. Either his eyes close or the glasses turn into sunglasses.

(News jingle stinger) Brighter days ahead for more Obscur games! Tonight at 8!
Seeing multiple outlets call a SWORD & FAIRY game(!!) an "Obscur-like" is going to be the thing that finally kills me to death. God forbid we stop inventing new ways to be racist for five seconds.

It's weird as a biologist to say "ignore the science part" but here we are
Science: Vaccines don't cause autism.
BUT IT DOESN'T MATTER. If vaccines caused autism I would still recommend them. Dying of preventable disease is bad. Autism isn't a disease and most of the "bad" of autism is society.

This is an absolutely correct take. There were financing deals in the Valley that had an event of default if you moved your money out of SVB. Think about why they would have insisted upon that.
Most underrated Biden admin mistake was bailing out Silicon Valley Bank.
SVB bet big on low interest rates and lost. Rich tech VCs who put too many eggs in that basket generated a bank run, then called for govt money.
Got their bailout, helped elect Trump, and now reaping rewards from corruption.

David Sacks, presumably, on the push by some in the tech and VC world to fund a primary challenge to Congressman Khanna.

As we enter the New Year remember fear of making bad art is holding you back. Fear of people not liking your work is holding you back. Rejection is holding you back
You'll make bad art, you'll have people not like your work, and you'll be rejected. Moving past it is half the job of being a creative

In Icelandic folklore Jólakötturinn, the Yule Cat, comes to eat those who do not wear their new clothes for Christmas. In this image, you can see somebody did not put on their new Christmas sweater. Or perhaps even more unfortunately, no one got them one!
