I am in Munich and when we got to the hotel as a show of how German they can possibly be there was a mandatory onboarding to show us all the fire exits.

Conservatives love “the marketplace of ideas” until it means all the people who are fun to socialize with don’t want to talk to them.

Worst thing about my dog waking me up at 5 AM so he could go to the bathroom was I saw someone outside jogging.

East of Eden is great because Adam Trask is always like “gosh I love my mean wife :)” and Cathy is always like “I’ll kill you & everyone else.”

It’s interesting to me how the needs of theoretical people absolutely trump the hapless 26-year-old effectively bullied into homelessness, but go off I guess

I think there is also very much the sense among some of the Commentariat that every resident of DC works for the offices of Hakeem Jeffries and Chuck Schumer and so our concerns aren’t real.

About 10 years ago I wound up sitting next to Dick Durbin’s table at a restaurant in downtown Chicago and I thought about stealing some of his French fries and decided against it because I’d voted for him and I look back on that with so much regret.

This is interesting to read about because I cannot genuinely think of an instance of a consumer-facing corporation endorsing a Democratic candidate. I think Republicans might SAY there’s plenty but like, allowing “gay days” at Disney World isn’t “endorsing” a Democrat.

Okay like yes I think the Socialism 2026 clips are a little ridiculous but ultimately the academics exploring the transradical geographies of fatphobic colonialist baking are not gonna be hanging out in a Democratic White House whereas a 24 year old Nazi single-handedly ended USAID last year so.

It’s deeply tedious to watch Seth Moulton throw a minority group under the bus just so he can come in fourth in New Hampshire in 2028.

I keep thinking how the next president is going to have to spend the first two years of their term undoing all the international damage Trump’s done but everyone can see that presidential elections are 10,000 votes in Wisconsin away from leading to a total breakdown of international norms.

Saw a group of gay guys ask a woman walking four dogs to stop and take their picture. A group of gay guys can do anything.

Really cannot be overstated how miserably bad Google has gotten at turning over relevant search results. I’m looking for a specific regulation and instead of pulling up the CFR it sends me a half a page of law firm blogs about it.

Unfortch we are stuck with him until he loses a Democratic majority in the House but he seems intent on never actually gaining that majority in the first place.

I feel like my most Old Man Yells At Cloud take is that fiction written in the present tense is lazy and poorly written and I cannot figure out why so many books are written that way now.

Matt’s hyperfixation on throwing trans people under the bus is not particularly resonant in Michigan, but I guess if he doesn’t make the suggestion once every seven minutes he will dissolve into Avengers dust or something.

As always the real villains of our era are a group of twentysomethings posting online that a small coterie of commentators find personally annoying.

Somewhere along the line the value exchange between advertisers, publishers, and consumers got lost and now consumers use ad blockers, those that don’t get their personal data vacuumed up, and publishers throw up pay walls and somehow everyone loses.
