One of the things I know about writing is this: spend it all, shoot it, play it, lose it, all, right away, every time. Do not hoard what seems good for a later place in the book or for another book; give it, give it all, give it now. The impulse to save something good for a better place later is the signal to spend it now. Something more will arise for later, something better. These things fill from behind, from beneath, like well water. Similarly, the impulse to keep to yourself what you have learned is not only shameful, it is destructive. Anything you do not give freely and abundantly becomes lost to you. You open your safe and find ashes.

Well, I guess someday our society had to realize that it is impossible to capture the multivalence and beauty of art in the eyes of its many beholders through the form of a ranked list. I'm a little surprised it took until today for us to figure that out, but it's healthy that it happened.

In every high-stakes campaign you see the same pattern: talented candidates know exactly how to talk to people until the Democratic campaign management class comes in to screw it up with their weird pet bullshit.

Incredible. First Secretary Mullin claimed that DHS had identified 15,903 noncitizens on Nevada’s voter roll. Then DHS officials told a skeptical Nevada, no no no, that’s just people we flagged. Here are the names of 185 people we KNOW aren’t citizens. All 185 were citizens. DHS got 100% wrong.
When the Department of Homeland Security sent Nevada a list of 185 names last month that it claimed identified noncitizens who had been improperly allowed to register to vote, state election officials got to work.
On Tuesday, the state sent a strongly worded rebuke to the federal government: Every single person on the list was a lawful citizen.
"As for the 185 individuals, our records indicate that they were citizens," Greg D. Ott, a deputy attorney general in Nevada, wrote, according to a copy of a letter sent to Department of Homeland Security officials obtained through open records requests.
"You have provided nothing of substance to suggest otherwise."Following the meeting, Ms. Vogt sent a clarifying email to Nevada officials. "I also wanted to be sure I clarified that we did not reduce the 15,903 to 185," she wrote. "We've manually reviewed some of the 15,903 and confirmed 185 are not U.S. Citizens."
Now, Nevada officials are saying even that 185 number is wrong. They also took issue with a letter D.H.S. sent them in early September, in which the agency reiterated its initial claims about nearly 16,000 noncitizens on the rolls and pressured state officials to review each case in a letter to Nevada officials in early September.

It is not fair for one of the Fat Bear Week bears to have the extremely memeable name "Chunk" when a bunch of the others just get ID numbers. They should all get equally significant names or they should all get numbers.

They say if you give fascists an inch they’ll take a mile, but what if there was a *special* inch that would make fascists so happy they forget about the mile altogether? A lot of people’s politics revolve around finding that special inch, regardless of how many miles they give up in the process

I absolutely love Hitman, and I have since I was a kid. So, it was a thrill to put together an oral history of that incredible, and incredibly weird, DC Comics series, with insight from Garth Ennis, John McCrea, the book's main editors in Peter Tomasi and Dan Raspler, and more.
