The massive praise for the Pixel 10 line is so disappointing. Google locks down the phone, the OS, and is now trying to kill sideloading, and they get nothing but praise from the mainline press. How are these companies ever going to change if the loudest critics never challenge their bullshit?

Someone took issue with me saying that American male Protestants are unique in how they've removed themselves from aesthetics. I thought it was obvs that I'm talking about fashion and interior decor, which today are coded as "gay interests," not paintings or architecture. But let me elaborate. 🧵
Someone posted a video of a husband and wife shopping for interior decor. They wrote: "when will people finally acknowledge the epidemic of men marrying women and being turned gay."

Matt Walsh retweeted them and added: "Dudes like this were already gay. I’ve been married for 14 years and have never  been home decor shopping, or even had an opinion on the subject, except for the one time when I had a painting custom made depicting me meeting a group of space aliens. It’s now hanging above a fireplace in our home."

I screenshot Walsh's comment and added: "For a while, it was believed that women and gay men are born with a natural sense for aesthetics. In reality, straight men, particularly American male Protestants, have simply barred themselves from taking an interest in aesthetics bc they think this makes them noble."

Finally, someone retweeted me and added: "Why does anyone listen to what this idiot has to say about aesthetics?" They attached a photo of Edward Hopper's 1942 painting "Nighthawks."

Asheville city hall's budget is out. In response to locals' desperation after the devastatiom of Helene they're... Pushing a massive 8% tax hike. Combined with a similar move from the county locals are facing a 14% tax hike. Their big priority is raises for cops and high-level officials.🧵 #avlnews

Even if you only aim to negotiate, you put yourself in a weaker bargaining position by spelling out from the beginning what it will take to appease you. Better to appear implacable: "You want to come to terms? Make an offer—in the meantime, we’ll be blocking the freeway and setting things on fire."
