One thing about Dolly Parton's passing that strikes me is that unlike some others, she experienced a lot of praise before passing. It wasn't saved for obituaries. There were regular (warranted) love-fests for Parton. I wish that for everyone. It's a good day to tell people you appreciate them.

The Roberts Court, the Trump White House, and the national GOP are acting like this is their one big shot. Either they secure the lasting end of US Constitutional democracy, or they’re in very serious trouble from the backlash. And they’ve already gone so far that there’s no other possibility.

Modern AI tools emulate the classic con-man tricks of mentalism, tricking people into believing that they’re far more clever - and sapient - than they actually are. Fantastic piece by @baldurbjarnason.com : softwarecrisis.dev/letters/llme...

The RedNote discourse reveals that pop-leftists do not see themselves as workers, but as consumers, and their infatuation with China is out of a belief that their government socialistically provides everyone with treats that our companies and government callously withhold for a profit.

I see a lot of you still sharing posts from the obviously fake Count Dracula account, so please be aware: - the real Count would never post during daylight hours in Romania - his full given name is Vlad, not Vladimir - he does not actually say “blah” and would never write it out in a post

Column | When reality is seen as biased, objectivity alone won’t shield the press
The media has a trust problem that overlaps with its economic problems. But that trust problem is often a function of external actions, not internal ones.

As a boy who grew up in Nashville, let me ask this: I see that some team named Vanderbilt beat Alabama. Is there … a second Vanderbilt? Some other Vanderbilt?
