If you think “hearing from all sides” is a useful way to spend your time, you may have too much time on your hands. Give me sound logic or talk to someone else. My time is too valuable for nonsense.
Apologies in advance. I don’t read or repost Substack.

I hear that, occasionally. I countered that mindset early by posting a giant “WHAT IF EVERYBODY DID THAT?” sign in the classroom.
It came up again the other day regarding leash laws.
Reasoning: Why are you mad? His dog is behaving very well without a leash.
Rebuttal: *Taps the sign*

Bitcoin Is Crashing So Hard That Miners Are Unplugging Their Equipment

I’m on the scene at Franklin and 1st. A convoy of about a couple dozen ICE/HSI agents broke the entryway into an apartment building at 6am. No warrant presented. Less than 24 hours ago, Tom Homan announced the end of large convoys in Minnesota… Bullshit.

One more comment on the Post debacle: this hurts journalism broadly. Good journalists will go do something else. The rest will be fighting for fewer jobs and everyone will earn less. Fewer people will take up the career. The damage done is to the ecosystem, as well as the paper.
