We've lived for so long with this mythology that sure, the wealthy can be cruel. But at least the cruelty has a point. Profit! I'd like us to open our hearts to other possibilities. Power doesn't just corrupt! It can also breed truly reality-distorting levels of incompetence.

Sunday morning in Kyiv. Emergency power outages again after russian strikes. The window is open, bringing in the sound of generators. Covering myself in a blanket of autumn sun and sipping a warcoffee, I’m going to write a letter about what it was like to live in Kyiv this week.

Sam Altman said people are just gonna have to die in order to implement AI. In the very same week, Anthropic claimed it’s a human rights violation to be mean to the computer. These people need to be held accountable. They think lines of code are a person with rights but living people are debris.

National testing is fine. The result should not be tied to funding, but localities should use the results as a benchmark. I also think that the drive to put public dollars to private k-12 institutions is bad.

This strain of Conservative thought is in necessary tension to traditional progressivism, and is broadly important given the scale of the country. However, I think it sometimes operates at a level of abstraction that is unhelpful and is over-applied.

In a multi-racial and religiously pluralistic democracy like the US has at least claimed to be since WWII, there's no such thing as "the Indian Question" or "the Jewish Question" unless one is a racist or a theocrat.

Troy Jackson responds: “This is corruption of the highest order. Susan Collins delivered millions in taxpayer dollars for a corrupt donor bankrolling her campaign, & then Donald Trump helped her cover it up. No wonder she voted with him 96% of the time & has rubberstamped his agenda to hurt Maine.”

A war on terror cannot be eternal, and yet the GWOT mindset persists. The US must heal itself. Government can help by taking care of the infrastructure that makes living a little easier for some and more dignified for others.

Seriously, get gambling, legal or otherwise, the phuck out of sports. Now, before it’s too late. It’s entirely possible gambling could be the undoing of sports as we know them. There are too many bad actors, including people and athletes involved in and around sports, who could ruin it for everyone.

When a sauce like Worcestershire Sauce says it goes with chicken, they mean in a marinade or they mean white meat. I prefer dark meat, but Worcestershire doesn't do much for it, there's no synergy.
