Ever notice how nonspecific environmentalist perspectives can be at their loudest when they are impotent? That's right, colorless green ideas DO sleep furiously

Hanging out with the lads. "Did you know North and South Dakota have similar populations to north and south Manhattan?" They tell me no, they didn't know that. "Well, the Dakotas enjoy four Senate votes between them, where the people of Manhattan have to share two votes with the rest of the state."

Instead of watching Stranger Things, maybe we should start building stronger things, like the rule of law and a commitment to democratic norms

“Bullying” is bad by definition. It’s not a value neutral tool to be deployed positively toward good ends. It’s so fucked up that people want so badly to reclaim this thing, and are so eager to do it that they want to brand things that aren’t bullying as bullying.
"Some people deserve to be bullied" is always wild to see because it's so deliberately childish as to make it difficult to imagine the person saying it has the moral capacity of an adult human being.

Don’t forget that *Trump’s own lawyer’s argument* to the Supreme Court in the immunity case was that the check on the President using his immunity to order criminal acts was that those under him would not follow illegal orders. Now it’s a crime for lawmakers to remind servicemembers of that?
The President doesn't want you standing up and speaking out against him, so he's coming after me to intimidate all of us.
But I won't back down — and neither should you.

Why do Dems always run all their most likable, electable, normal candidates with their best policy messages in the year after Trump becomes president, and their second-most likable, electable candidates with the second-best policy messages in the midterms following Trump being elected? It’s weird

You absolutely need to change this headline. It's unacceptable and disrespectful to the people harmed by the pollution.
This article itself makes it clear that the water pollution linked to cancer and miscarriages is coming entirely from nitrate pollution from farms.

WELKER: “Do you think Trump’s a fascist?
MAYOR MAMDANI: “I’ve said it in the past. I say it today.”
WELKER: “How do you square working with someone who you still think is a threat to the democracy?”
MAYOR MAMDANI: “Working for the people of NYC demands you work with everyone.”

there are a ton of different quality of life indexes but the United States generally sits squarely in the middle of the pack of developed nations, which is about what you'd expect from a very rich country with a poor social security net.

Most of this isn't surprising if you think of LLM prompts as all fundamentally asking them to roleplay as a particular known type of guy. "Roleplay as a lying murderer trying not to get caught" and "roleplay as a guy playing Mafia" are different
