I am reminded of a great point my comrade Ani made at the time of Brexit, about Leftists who "encourage attempted short-cuts based on an underestimation of 'the masses' capacity to detect bullshit". People who want "left-wing FOX" or "left-wing Joe Rogan" think that propaganda slop is fungible...

This is top five one of the most alarming quiet headlines of the year. Americans, they want to take YOUR NATIONAL ARCHIVES away from you. Every Conservative Father figure from 80's-2000's pop culture is having a fucking aneurysm and real conservatives are just...quiet?

what makes me rage so much in part about antivaxxers is that they are purely free-riders, but they don't see this, and they convert more people to their belief.....and then suddenly no one can free ride and even some people who did the right thing (getting vaccinated) get a breakthrough infection

It’s not enough for Stephen Miller to orchestrate Trump’s deportation agenda. Miller recently disclosed over $100K of stock in Palantir, the shady data firm ICE uses to target and round up immigrants. He’s cashing in on his own cruelty.

This parking example is illustrative of the degree of magical thinking required to make the business case for this ridiculous spa. I recall from reporting on the proposal assumed ~6m visitors per year. The Eiffel tower gets ~6m per year. Totally, utterly bonkers. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/....

I see people asking "why wouldn't you fact check???" and that's missing the point- RFK Jr knows things and facts and evidence are real if they validate him, fake if they don't.

Another neat aspect of #Andrea was the earlier convective burst. Likely aided by dynamics via an upper-level cutoff. Positive coupling b/w low-level vortex of Andrea & upper-level low helped trigger enough convection to reach TC criteria. Cross-section annotated from @tropicaltidbits.bsky.social
