I've been dying to write this for a long time. I love crime fiction and detective fiction; it's how I prefer to relax. I reject the idea that it has to be conservative or reactionary, and Jacobin was kind enough to let me write this essay extolling why we can't surrender this terrain.

Everyone is getting upset about the data centers. They pollute a lot and use a lot of energy and will eventually be very ugly/huge vacant buildings. And I understand being mad about that. Until you consider the state of the lazer tag industry at this moment, and how much help that sector needs.

As a centrist, I think Donald Trump is bad, but the political and economic conditions that enabled him to become president twice are good

I grew up watching the Twilight Zone & original series Star Trek so when someone excitedly tells me, “We have a machine that can do the thinking for you!” I already know that machine is 100% a trap

It's not a foolproof plan but every political debate from now on should be a Normal Guy competition. Ask them to describe grocery shopping in detail. Talk about what it's like to have a friend

The guy shot two random people with a gun, I don't think you can say he wasn't assimilating into our culture
Stephen Miller is now arguing that assimilation is fundamentally impossible and that certain cultures are not compatible with Western civilization

AI use is gonna be like plastic surgery: when it's obvious and over the top will incur some stigma, when done well, you won't even know.

I think Pecan Pie is one of those things that is divisive now because it’s just a blob of sugar with nuts on it but to someone 150 years ago who ate shoes it was probably like having 12 orgasms at once

I have long posited that Daniel Craig's accent in Glass Onion is better than Knives Out because in Knives Out he is trying to do a real Southern accent and is bad at it but in Glass Onion he is just talking like Foghorn Leghorn, which is something a real gay Southern weirdo would do.
