It's not that Elon is so much worse than Zuck or Bezos, it's that Elon is vulnerable and the others aren't. Tesla is Elon's only real business, and it's falling apart on its own. If we all help it fall apart faster, and take down Musk, the others will notice. Call it billionaire domino theory.

One thing life gave me is resilience. Resilience is, far and away, the single greatest factor to anything good that I have in my life. Someone recently asked me what I want for the kids in my life. It’s this. Resilience. Because life ain’t fair & you gotta live it anyway.

Yeah. A lot of what is happening here is a Ponzi scheme. The Amway cleaner IS nice on maybe toilets. But people don’t get excited about clean toilets so the Ameay guy promises it can clean your whole house and make you a ton of $$. If I focus on toilets, it’s both true & not true enough for them

Lots of good reminders in this piece that, historically, advocating for changes to customs, laws, beliefs that are unjust is an uphill battle but worth the effort as it emboldens other to join in and create momentum.

Oh. And what is the move if the Supreme Court—who let's all remember is a gang of bribed far right extremist ideologues that already ruled that Trump is immune from prosecution for breaking laws—says everything he's doing is perfectly lawful for presidents to do?

“the president gave our WW3 plans to an epic bacon ketamine addict with no impulse control” okay man, I guess at this point I don’t know what I’m supposed to do about it. “adderall incels asked AI and it said nobody needs books anymore” well, I already called my senator and he said it’s fine

I genuinely cannot fathom how Tressie Cottom, easily one of the best thinkers of our generation, can actually handle talking to the stone cold ambulatory stupidity in congealed human form that is Bret Stephens.

The fight for D.C. isn’t lost yet, but it isn’t over either: If the House doesn’t pass this bill quickly, our budget will still be decimated. If you’re lucky enough to have congressional representation, consider calling your House member and asking them to expeditiously approve it.
