Deliciously, you can hear Storm Thurmond and the Dixiecrats boo and walk out of Hubert Humphrey’s 1948 DNC speech when the Democrats risked disappearing forever by taking the side of Civil Rights m.youtube.com/watch?v=8nwI...

Uhh looks an awful lot like a loyalty test guys. “The revamped critical elements will evaluate senior executives on whether they faithfully administered the law and advanced the President's policy priorities; promoted government efficiency; demonstrated merit and competence; held others accountable…

Wait is this saying CMMI is a pro-market scam? Arguably models skewed that way eventually but effort was always in earnest to save $ and was part of blue sky vision of Obamacare. Check out optimism from Atul Gawande: www.newyorker.com/magazine/200...

It’s hard because it’s like 15% a decent platform. I *would* like to get to the bottom of this whole microplastic thing. I *do* suspect why we don’t get fat when eating more in Europe has something to do with Monsanto, and are we *sure* semaglutides won’t liquefy my pancreas?

I worry Gen X failed Gen Z as I don’t think we made them aware masculine liberals exist, likely because having a Twitter/youtube/podcast talking about how masculine you are is the least masculine thing ever.

Right spirit wrong plan. In the dead of night set up Little Free Libraries near schools and load them with banned children’s books. Wear ski masks. Don’t get shot. Same punk rock energy. (www.ala.org/bbooks/frequ...) www.carscoops.com/2025/02/anti...

To make up for lack of office space for Feds it’s been circulating that we may go to WeWork. There was a GSA pilot on it during Biden (www.wework.com/newsroom/wew...). Of course, we’re trying to figure out which billionaire would profit from this, likely him: www.politico.com/news/magazin...
