It's rare to see someone so committed to being a total fucking cunt as this guy. It's incredible. He's surrounded by sycophants and all he does is punch them in the dick and take their money. Single handedly proving that American conservatism is a scam for dickheads.

TED LASSO and SLOW HORSES are both on Apple TV, and unless my entire childhood lied to me, that can only mean one thing. We're due for a very special crossover episode. Can't wait.

It is no coincidence that rationalists and EAs tend to be straight white guys from well-off families, because for everybody else, the world usually conspires to knock some sense into you about your inherent god-emperor genius by the time you’re old enough to drink.

The Facial Expressions of Tethys by artist Julius von Bismarck. A suspended high-sea buoy that moves in real time. Sensors on a twin buoy out in the Atlantic Ocean send live satellite data to motors inside the museum. This makes the indoor buoy copy the exact, real-time movements of the ocean waves.

But the promise isn’t just to tear them down, but punish everyone who did the work. Liquidate companies. Strip the private assets from executives of the demolition and construction firms. And start telling them it’s gonna happen

You can tell he's fully assimilated into living in Florida because he's fully replaced his own personal recollection of the events of 9/11 with the universal right wing belief that 9/11 was about him and he was the next target.

The basic reality is starting in 2016 I think a lot of people were put in the impossible position of figuring out how to deal with somebody they loved failing a very simple moral test, and then embracing the results of that failure, failing the test again, sometimes failing it a THIRD time.

I mean I'm not the smartest guy on Earth and I had no difficulty at all understanding what he's talking about here. What if "It's not that simple" or "Actually it's really complicated" are political versions of telling a four year old the McDonald's is closed because you don't want to stop.
