A simple way to determine if someone knows what they're talking about is to ask them:

Who has praised Trump's diplomacy?

Anthony Blinken, or Rashida Tlaib?
Brett McGurk, or Ilhan Omar?
Jack Lew, or Zohran Mamdani?
As one of the 3 dozen people on here who actually pay attention to this issue and MENA more broadly as a job it is still very amusing to see people think it's the left who loves this plan. The most voracious defenders of it are Blob careerists or their orbiters— Blinken, McGurk, Lindsey Graham, etc.

I, too, read Dickens in 9th grade. But then I grew up, realized he got paid by the word, and writing like that is, uh, insufferable trash.

If an attractive young woman a third my age didn't want to date me, then why did she ask me for feedback on an economics paper?

Haven’t read the report, but the photo of three-dimensional modules being craned in with double-hung windows kinda sums up the problems with Americans trying to pursue industrialized construction – it’s an advanced topic and we haven’t mastered the basics.
Center for American Progress Housing Plan:

Take down barriers that make it harder to build homes.
Build more affordable homes at a lower cost.
Protect consumers and lower other housing costs.

CAP’s plan would focus federal efforts on building homes and lower housing costs.

I'm delighted that today the @kiel.institute published our new paper, which I coauthored with Ipchita Bharali & Osondu Ogbuoji

Given the recent, sharp cuts in health aid, we set out to examine evidence on whether health aid can benefit recipients AND donors

bush v gore is the hinge upon which basically everything awful from the last quarter century swings on
i don't think that bush v. gore is the *worst* ruling in the history of the supreme court, but i do think it is the most openly *corrupt* ruling in its history. a real disgrace.

Brain Not On Yet [sad trombone sounds] (he blocked me)
"neuro invasive" there is still no direct evidence of this happening at any real scale or that it is even the cause of the nervous system damage sometimes seen in COVID, which is overwhelmingly more likely to be due to inflammation

"most people will have you killed for the smallest gain" is possibly the most Bluesky-ass [extremely derogatory] sentence I have seen all year
I mean most people will have you killed for the smallest gain.

Most people are selfish, bigoted pricks that at most care about their closest friends.

Our society litterally rewards the worst people out there, and there are no signs of that getting better.

Prionic diseases have been my nightmare since the 80s when I met Gajdusek. Normal kids were afraid of crocodiles or quicksand and I was kept up nights by Able Archer and FFI and shit.
