“Listen to Black Women” was never supposed to be about elevating us as a class to moral paragon with no ability to check us It was supposed ( TO ME) to be about making real effort to identify how systemic levers and systems moved around us and by us. we are human and will act like humans do

Food companies wanted deregulation. Now there are dozens of recalls across the country. Mining companies wanted deregulation. Now the black lung rate is at a 45-year high. Financial companies wanted deregulation. Now financial losses to fraud are the highest on record. Noticing a pattern?

Donald Trump stands out historically in one way. He has demilitarized the US military more quickly than any other political leader in US history. A full blown pacifist would have struggled to throw away weapons faster than he has.

It really really really bugs me how many people simply do not understand what it means when the government tries to convict you even IF THEY FAIL TO DO IT. Do you know how many thousands of dollars in legal fees it costs? You will most likely lose your job. You might lose your home.

We're near the ten-year anniversary of this interview, which was viewed as wildly controversial at the time. It led to hit pieces on me from liberal outlets like The New Republic as well as death threats. Now it's seen as conventional wisdom -- but it always was!

Relatedly, a reminder that "AI" will just make shit up about you
"What corrective surgery did John Scalzi have that he's written about"

John Scalzi had cataract surgery to correct his vision.

On his popular blog, Whatever, he written about dealing with cataracts and how the corrective procedure effectively altered his eyesight. Because the synthetic replacement lenses in his eyes do not possess the natural ability to refocus, he jokingly points out that his most "extroverted glasses" are actually no glasses at all—leaving him with sharp distance vision but requiring him to take them off entirely to check his phone or read up close.

Would you like to know more about how his personal medical reflections influence his science fiction, or perhaps his other writing about health and the human body?

Maybe we should remember Lindsey Graham the way Fox News is remembering him this morning. For his rabid defense of Brett Kavanaugh during his confirmation hearing. Never forget: Graham’s speech helped push Kavanaugh across the finish line and onto the Supreme Court.
