Arcadia was probably one of the first pieces of literature that really spoke to me growing up, RIP to a real one
Oof. He was truly a master, from Rosenkrantz & Guildenstern to Arcadia to Leopoldstadt—just a lifetime of tremendous, thought-provoking, hilarious work. RIP. www.bbc.com/news/article...

part of the reason i am genuinely irritated with the gAI/AGI cult is because there is real societal benefits in using ML techniques in medical care + weather analysis, and instead people get annoyed with anything that gets lumped in with the plagiarism machine

Houses are too expensive for most homebuyers, but prices aren’t coming down because homeowners don’t want to sell at the price they bought at; they want to make money off of it. Private investment, which makes up a tiny amount of SFH owners, is a result of this situation, not a cause.
Remove the ability for private investment to own residential homes and the problem will be solved.

Expedition 33 was fine, but that’s about it honestly. Now that I’ve had a few months distance from it, the sheen is much less than after finishing it. I can’t really imagine returning to it, so I’m a little perplexed that it’s getting so much GOTY buzz

it's a shame that basically the only people who correctly understood Russiagate to be basically true in its entirety, other than the anti-Trump II intellectual commentariat as represented on here, were liberals who now cannot conceive of internal dissension that wasn't put there by scary foreigners
Yo Russian bullshit sloppers:
1. Twitter turned off location again, it's safe for you to go peddle your division there again.
2. Move on to this year's bullshit slopping points, Biden isn't president and hasn't been for almost a year

At minimum, Hegseth, Miller, and Rubio need to be prosecuted. There are a lot more people who should be, but that’s the minimum you need to kill the idea of elite impunity in government.

if lizza wants my subscription money he should not just burn himself and nuzzi, but every other journalist who knew about this, by name. you’ve already put on the jacket, go ahead and throw a few more charges in it.
yeah it’s bad that Lizza has been sitting on this for so long but also how cursory and inept was that Vox investigation that not only managed to miss the biggest scandal in the history of American political journalism but affirmatively exonerated her bsky.app/profile/bkel...
So the editor of New York Magazine said there was no bias or ethical problems with Olivia's articles?
Does he still think that?
They should retract all of her stories

![I am not a Know-Nothing. That is certain. How could I be? How can any one who abhors the oppression of negroes, be in favor or degrading classes of white people? Our progress in degeneracy appears to me to be pretty rapid. As a nation, we began by declaring that "all men are created equal." We now practically read it "all men are created equal, except negroes" When the Know-Nothings get control, it will read "all men are created equal, except negroes, and foreigners, and Catholics." When it comes to this I should prefer emigrating to some country where they make no pretence of loving liberty -- to Russia, for instance, where despotism can be taken pure, and without the base alloy of hypocracy [sic].](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:egd33s7iuqsmwlwab6mbtrqi/bafkreiaaicjid4jg3oongeah73ukqvwsqv4vwbp75q4f755nldtcfermhi@jpeg)

We have got to make politics intellectual again. It is the only way that societies thrive is when politicians have the capability to actually think and reflect deeply:
![I confess that I always had difficulty with interpreting the Biblical precept to love our neighbours “as ourselves” until I read some of the words of C.S. Lewis. He pointed out that we don't exactly love ourselves when we fall below the standards and beliefs we have accepted. Indeed we might even hate ourselves for some unworthy deed.
None of this, of course, tells us exactly what kind of political and social institutions we should have. On this point, Christians will very often genuinely disagree, though it is a mark of Christian manners that they will do so with courtesy and mutual respect. [Applause] What is certain, however, is that any set of social and economic arrangements which is not founded on the acceptance of individual responsibility will do nothing but harm.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:xbnsfdtxoothg654ujxe3p25/bafkreicrdgbtvm54qnmttwe6crhxwt4be5v3izjmqtnvlxmaljwg5wolai@jpeg)
