Public smoking bans just got in under the wire, too. Younger folks might not realize how rare they used to be and how hard they were to enact.
it is MIRACULOUS that we got rid of lead paint and asbestos when we did. if we had tried that today, there would be people whining about how we're restricting their rights.

Working on a thought-tool called "stupid drunk guy in a bar". Works like this: If the take you're responding to is essentially being mumbled by a clearly very stupid drunk guy in the bar you're at, is it worth starting a big public discussion with him?
Today we've decided to center:
- some genre author with fewer than 2k followers who said something insipid about an industry where he has no relevant experience or connection
- a Cato Institute ghoul with the handle "normative" and a substack smugly saying we need to be more serious about eugenics

I hate this one so much, but I think about it at least once a week, if not more. I don’t know if it falls under your category, but it’s the one that comes to mind.
