The fact that we have super wealthy and extremely stupid people trying to set themselves up as new nobles has made historical nobility, which I only know from books, far more real to me. These people were not smart, they did not rule well, and rigid hierarchies of domination are very bad.

I keep wanting to do a newsletter on the rise of what I think of as 'videogame logic' in policy suggestions, in which you 'just' switch people on the least good courses onto an apprenticeship in the same way you 'just' rezone an area in Sim City 4.

What’s bizarre is I don’t think federal laws pertaining to political parties has changed much since the 70’s. Whereas laws pertaining to candidates have changed frequently over the years.
now the structure of federal campaign regulations are far from the only reason why this has happened but its a significant one

New rule: if your worldview can be accurately summarized as “do what thou wilt” then you are counted as a satanist.
We need to enforce Christian ethics on Christian believers because this apostasy shit is out of control

i think maybe in general it is time for an overall pushback on forms of fanon that amount to "what if the villain isn't that bad" because all it has produced is the continuing moral relativisation of obvious evil. yes i am indeed saying that the yuuzhan vong storyline directly led to donald j trump

What we are witnessing is the slow dissolution of the very concept of the public corporation
if a normal person was constantly at work going on about how women or Black people are inherently more X they would at the very least likely have a series of unpleasant and involuntary conversations with management but these exact beliefs are at least heavily implicit in much elite discourse today

Coming back from halftime break, Tom Brady's face was stuck in a rictus grin
You guys know I'd normally never compliment any of the various bozos who work as color commentators on NFL games. However, gotta hand it to Tom Brady for spending the entire game complaining about how cold it is and how much playing in the cold sucked ass instead of pretending it doesnt bother him

I continue to think that Matty coming out against birthright citizenship a few months ago should have been taken as a major warning sign that the group chats have already decided to surrender on this.
