Brave to @jeffstein.bsky.social, WaPo's chief economics correspondent, for not wasting any time in stating what must be stated. Hopefully the first of many.

This is beyond terrifying. I mean everything is of course, but this is in a whole new way. We are going to be cut off from any other realities except their death cult and it is happening fast. www.nbcnews.com/media/jeff-b...

Extremely stoked to be organizing this conference highlighting philosophy done from queer perspectives at UC Santa Cruz this April! Especially glad to still have this happen given, you know... everything. Registration here, with a remote option: forms.gle/bhPt4xQ2jR5q...

I'm surprised I haven't thought about this before, but I wonder how RFK's hatred of autistic people and his use of the threat of autism as a public health messaging weapon is going to end up mixing with the inspiration pornification of Musk's autism

We need to spend more time on the fact that Vance made the Minister of Finance of Norway and Chair of the Munich Security Conference burst into public tears of despair.

Oh hey! My book is already on Amazon, I did not know! Look how pretty! If you are a person who still uses Amazon, will you please consider pre-ordering? It's cheap, and it really helps with the algorithm and with my ability to promote the book. I hate to push my own stuff but I would be so grateful!

Do y'all remember how March 2020 felt just impossibly long, a lifetime, breaking all the rules of time? Friends, it is still Trump's first week back in office. Less than 6 full days in.

It's so interesting how random cultural norms evolve. Since 2020 it's developed into a solid norm that at the end of a zoom meeting there's an intense, highly competitive race to sign off. If you're last one out or don't beat the host you feel like a total loser. Why? Who knows, but it's a thing now

Can you imagine how maximally embarrassing it must be to be 54 years old and be pardoned by your daddy

There are several folks who have blocked me who have the same cover photo as me. What's up with that? Smells fishy but I can't figure out what the scam would be. And what do I do about it? I can't go check out their profile or block them, because I'm blocked, that's the whole point.
