“…not one of the people that is demonstrating looks like a normal person, not one looks normal. They’re all deformed in some way, in their appearance, in their dress, in their mannerisms…” Stephen Miller, July 16, 2026, State Dept. Address

25 years ago today, the U.S. launched its war in Afghanistan. Weeks earlier, Barbara Lee was the only member of Congress to vote against the 2001 Authorization of Military Force, warning it would be a blank check for forever wars. History has proven her lonely and courageous vote right.

The nice thing about LLMs is they reveal good moral taste (disgust triggered by profit-driven theft) vs evil moral taste (delight triggered by toxic systems) Good moral taste understands stories of causes and effects, making sense of reality Evil moral taste is dumb And moral taste is TRAINABLE

Btw while I have your attention on diet and climate, “eat local” also isn’t a real climate strategy either. To reduce climate impact: 1. Minimize your food waste 2. Eat more plants and less animal-based foods (esp beef and lamb) 3. Everything else matters a lot less (so eat what you like)
ourworldindata.org
You want to reduce the carbon footprint of your food? Focus on what you eat, not whether your food is local
“Eat local” is a common recommendation to reduce your diet's carbon footprint. How does the impact of what you eat compare to where it comes from?

Some doomers, influencers, and clickbait outlets like to push the idea that Earth is warming “far faster than expected” and “scientists are stunned, but afraid to speak out.” Absolutely not true. Earth is warming just as we have expected for decades now. drawdown.org/insights/is-...

Is climate change unfolding faster and fiercer than scientists expected?
Climate change is undeniably here, and it’s bad. But is it, as some are claiming, worse than even the scientists expected?
