Headline editor scolded for not knowing the first thing about coalition agreements?

The first mistake the girl makes is to fall in love. The second is not to be herself.

😔

[butterfly meme] is this ´a republic not a democracy’?

Oh wow. A giant 😔

They’re so going for it that they want SCOTUS to overturn the Administrative Procedure Act? I mean—uh, I guess that’s the logical conclusion of unitary executive theory plus muscular nondelegation but also 🫠🫠🫠

Brian Eno's "Ambient 1" only sold 10,000 copies, but everyone who bought it went on to start an airport.

Just remembered this exists and what the hell

I guess I should probably start with all the lit on confessionalism in the Sattelzeit?

but also, relatedly but more broadly, I just generally want a better understanding about urban religious experience, worship choice, and church attendance in Catholic parts of Europe after the Council of Trent

I’m currently itching to read a lot more about 19th century Germanophone urban Christian confessional and congregational practices outside of Prussia; it’s been ages since I read Bigler’s beautifully concise _The Politics of German Protestantism_ and I have like 10,000 new questions

NEW PIECE: This is exactly what it says on the tin. I asked former Bureau of the Fiscal Service employees to respond to an Elon Musk tweet and they did. Largely "on background" analysis but I also have a number of great anonymous quotes from former BFS employees. www.crisesnotes.com/i-asked-form...

Whatever he may have lost in reach by leaving the New York Times, @pkrugman.bsky.social has more than made up for it in directness and quality. paulkrugman.substack.com/p/elon-musk-...

My brain woke me up with the second half of this song today: www.youtube.com/watch?v=z2Kf...

we live in a time where you have to answer the question "which Hitler tweet"

so good

So, are musk's little kids getting paid? Doge was supposed to be people working for free. Were these the kids that applied?

FYI

The house will survive because of having its heart cut out. Its memory will outlast it.

Ed Askew was a great one and a lovely person. RIP. Check out the album Little Eyes recorded for ESP-Disk in 1970 but unissied til 2003. youtu.be/0zoIpa13KU0?...

Just woke up with this song in my head: www.youtube.com/watch?v=DvCM...

fwiw, the idea of representative bureaucracy within modern democratic states has a decently interesting history (and a somewhat small amount of interesting analytical literature last time I checked ca. November and December of 2016)

one of the things I think about _a_lot_ is a kind of christological or pain-response centered epistemology
