Sure it is. People know things aren't working but don't really understand the complicated systems at play so they look to outsider politicians that are exaggerations of their underlying biases

Then they are willing to accept more suffering in exchange for making other people (generally people of color, women, the less fortunate) suffer even more. Which makes them evil instead of misguided. The theories of politics are the generous version

Can't wait for the 5-4 episode on this case

This seems to be an argument for no more business school grads. Our at least dramatic reform of business schools

Wait, I just remembered Elon actually did that. Never mind, post canceled

Just once, i want to see them make the opposite argument.

Person A: Your stock is up $500B in a month!

Huang: I wish it was lower😞

I hate to say it (I mean REALLY hate to say it) but I've seen enough, and I'm calling it. Donald Trump is our first openly bi president

The top ten metropolitan statistical areas combined have around a quarter of the US population. The top 20 is around a third. Major urban areas are not a small fraction of the country

Makes you wonder if there are other conspiracies that go undetected because they're smart enough to do this:

Honestly, if you're a white guy who wants to commit an interesting federal crime, now is probably your best bet

Imagine Elon reaching for his ketamine before his own robot slaps it out of his hand

The interesting question is which dem no votes are actually real? There are a few senators I trust to be consistent, but I'm side eyeing many of the others right now

If you do manage to do most of act 1 in a single day, you'll miss most of the interesting optional stuff that really enhances the game

I thought all these old people were against participation trophies?

Turns out they were on to something

Definitely call your senators, but remember that the staffer you talk to is almost certainly a 20 something intern with no actually power so please don't abuse the junior staff

A follow-up mission was intended to bring statues, paintings, and other artworks for cultural exchange. Unfortunately, the Canadian flight director sent the spacecraft in the wrong trajectory. It's gone down in the history books as the "Art eh miss" mission

Cautiously intrigued by this 2001: A Space Odyssey reboot

To be fair, I much prefer him asleep to awake

This feels like some kind of bizarre rural courtship that I'm too urban to understand

This is why those complaints about running out of other people's money are nonsense. It costs 0.16% of the annual income of people making $300k for universal school lunch. That's nothing to them

I thought he was pretty clearly channeling Obama last night, albeit with his own spin on it
