I sincerely did not believe it was possible for FIFA to be more corrupt or disgraceful, and I'm genuinely impressed that they managed to surprise me.

Everyone (esp media) pay attention. In 2021 almost every Republican attacked the Biden administration and State dept for being too slow in approving Afghanistan special visas as Afghanistan fell.
Now they are attacking Biden for doing what they asked him to do.

I haven't double checked the math but seems largely correct.
It’s completely absurd, to save $226, you’d pay an extra $500,000 in interest.

This seems like the most straightforward and also basically accurate message.
instead of saying this was good strategy, maybe senate dems should say: "the republicans were going to kill people by starving them to death, and because we aren't monsters, we decided to let this fight go. We'll keep fighting. Stop electing monsters."

virtue signalling is good actually
Performative decency is actually *so* important for this reason.
It tricks the 10% of ghouls into thinking that there are only 1% of ghouls.
And it makes the 30% of people that don't care one way or another follow the mostly decent crowd

This is from Autocracy, Inc, about how modern autocratic propaganda works.
I consider this every time I decide what to share and how to frame it.

I am certainly no seasoned strategist but I am a little skeptical of the political wisdom behind building a giant golden ballroom and sharing a dozen photos of a renovated marble bathroom at the very moment that millions of people are losing access to healthcare and food.

Hadn't even considered this part of it. I wonder how far the particles can travel?
As others have mentioned, what kind of testing for asbestos or other noxious substances was conducted? Based on the time this wing was built, it’s very likely to have asbestos. There aren’t any mitigation measures visible in the photos. I know he doesn’t care, but if I worked @WH, I’d be worried.

Please remember that the disgust people have over Christopher Columbus is not based on some modern, 21st century “woke” ideology, but rather on contemporaneous accounts of atrocities that make many modern genocides appear quaint in comparison.

In the 2010s, this country's elites were thrown onto social platforms with everyone else and could finally read what we all think about them and it caused them so much psychic damage that they decided to destroy both the internet and democracy to make sure nothing like it ever happened again.

Report from the trenches.
the hardest part of living in Portland is having your house burn down every single night and then having to rebuild it during the day. the amount of money i spend just in drywall is insane.
Trump: Portland is burning to the ground—insurrectionists all over the place. The politicians are afraid for their lives. That’s the only reason they say there’s nothing happening.

Again, patriotism isn’t about loving America as is, it’s about believing it can be something better. Also, anyone who says my grandfather fought in a segregated unit at Normandy for fascism can take a hike.
I’m personally done ceding our national symbology to those that get off on perverting it for their political ends. If you want to convince people you’re trying to improve the country, you have to prove that you sincerely like the country, which many an extremist proudly dos not.

All those 2024 media fact-checks that said, “Donald Trump and the Trump campaign deny any connection to Project 2025” look pretty ridiculous right now.
A Trump denial is not a fact. You just used his lies to “debunk” a reality that was obvious to anyone paying attention.

I wrote about Ta-Nehisi Coates and Ezra Klein, why swallowing live frogs is a bad idea, and how context and history can release you from bright-kid syndrome, the illusion that you yourself are going to have every answer or fix the world.
You don't have to swallow frogs
Klein and Coates show that if you don't know what your core beliefs are, you're going to get played.
