I don't think my kids will be safe going to school in anything smaller than a McKenna, though

BlueSky should let us group posters into categories with separate feeds; I don't need the whiplash

"I have a history of making bad decisions impulsively, and I'm incurious and defensive. Please make me a US Senator." It's an insane pitch even if you grant him everything.

Treating a three-day suspension as a big deal seems like a sign of social media addiction. Three days is nothing.

I tried it going from Gemini to ChatGPT and nothing interesting happened -- what's the expected outcome?

Big accounts should be held to higher standards than lowbies, though. Power/responsibility etc etc

I suppose the Supreme Court could barge in and "major questions" it, but who really cares about the penny?

Big split in US politics is "liked what Jefferson wrote" vs "liked what Jefferson did"

He's a racist and also a classist who hates redneck chuds; tough out there for the elitists longing for aristocracy.

Look, the workers (retail traders) own the means of production (stocks). That's communist. This is why Donald Trump should abolish corporations to restore capitalism in America.

I think it's because she's aware she's in a conflict -- the best ones are where the interviewee says something self-refuting without any apparent awareness that they've demolished their own position.

After reading it, I didn't think she came off particularly well, but didn't have a total self-implosion as we see in the most fun Chotiner interviews.

You can nuke the filibuster at any time though, it's not a meaningful restraint on a determined majority.

You'd think undoing a Carter policy to expand executive authority would be appealing per se, honestly.

I wonder which games are the good ones in this framework. Is it just HoI4 or what?

Sure, it's one of the more famous Nazi symbols, I think. Swastika, Sig-runes, party eagle, totenkopf seem like the big ones?

Spy thrillers as well -- "the things I did to establish this society mean that I am unfit to live in it" shows up a lot, what do we do with the warriors when the war is over and so on

Well, I wouldn't because it would take days of work to compile the data for a post a small number of people would ever see.

I think a serious effort would probably need to look at a class larger than Senators to get decent numbers? Perhaps looking at mortality for upper income professionals.

Looking at the Social Security actuarial tables, it seems like you shouldn't vote for a Senator over 65 (9.7% chance of dying in office) unless you enjoy gambling.
