Out of budget lockup. I recently wrote: "Ottawa imposes a 10 percent luxury tax on yachts... yet a family buying a semi in Scarborough pays the equivalent of 15 percent in [DCs] and land transfer taxes." Today the gov't addressed this by eliminating the luxury tax on yachts.

What Klein couldn’t seem to admit was that his core political analysis is born of his personal experience, and nothing about his personal experience prepared him to face the complexity of the current moment. What he could not cope with acknowledging, is that he never thought that would matter.

New argument against AI regulation just dropped. Checkmate, atheists. www.wsj.com/tech/peter-t...

For about a year now, Thiel has been publicly laying out his understanding of biblical prophecies and the potential for the rapid advance of technology to bring about an apocalyptic future.

In a lecture Monday, he encouraged an audience to continue working toward scientific progress, whether in AI or other forms of technology. Fearing or regulating it, or opposing technological progress, would hasten the coming of the Antichrist, Thiel said, according to people who attended.

Andrew Scheer, former conservative leader, posts my tweet with the caption: “Imagine how twisted she has to be that this is her first thought after a man was shot in the neck for expressing his views.
So much hate in her.”

I had posted:

“Terrified to think of how far-right fans of Kirk, aching for more violence, could very well turn this into an even more radicalizing moment
Will they now believe their fears have been proven right and feel they have a right to "retaliate," regardless of who actually was behind the initial shooting?”

If liberals like Ezra are saying that someone who called for Gay people to be stoned, trans people to be lynched, Black people to accept police violence and women to obey did politics "the right way", that is in some respects more alarming that the bloviation of the far right. Bend that knee, Ezra.

No better time to post Hunter S. Thompson on 9/12/2001. www.espn.com/espn/page2/s...

We are going to punish somebody for this attack, but just who or what will be blown to smithereens for it is hard to say. Maybe Afghanistan, maybe Pakistan or Iraq, or possibly all three at once. Who knows? Not even the Generals in what remains of the Pentagon or the New York papers calling for WAR seem to know who did it or where to look for them.
This is going to be a very expensive war, and Victory is not guaranteed -- for anyone, and certainly not for anyone as baffled as George W. Bush. All he knows is that his father started the war a long time ago, and that he, the goofy child-President, has been chosen by Fate and the global Oil industry to finish it Now. He will declare a National Security Emergency and clamp down Hard on Everybody, no matter where they live or why. If the guilty won't hold up their hands and confess, he and the Generals will ferret them out by force.
Good luck. He is in for a profoundly difficult job -- armed as he is with no credible Military Intelligence, no witnesses and only the ghost of Bin Laden to blame for the tragedy.
OK. It is 24 hours later now, and we are not getting much information about the Five Ws of this thing.
The numbers out of the Pentagon are baffling, as if Military Censorship has already been imposed on the media. It is ominous. The only news on TV comes from weeping victims and ignorant speculators.
The lid is on. Loose Lips Sink Ships. Don't say anything that might give aid to The Enemy.

"It makes me concerned about the rigor of the report, if these really basic citation practices aren't being followed."
Katherine Keyes, a professor of epidemiology at Columbia University, was listed as the author of a paper on mental health and substance use among adolescents. She has not written any paper by the title the report cited, nor does one seem to exist by any author.
