Stephen Miller as a Star Wars character. Andor really is the best that Star Wars has been since Rogue One and season one of The Mandalorian.

Mild Spoiler: it's a testament to the quality of writing in Andor that one of the best and easily the most relatable scene in all of Star Wars is a fascist collapsing onto his bed in a panic attack because his mom won't stop being mean to him

To be clear, nothing - NOTHING - Joe Biden said 4 years, including his debate meltdown, comes anywhere close to the insanity, unreality, unhingeness, of Trump repeatedly insisting - even when the interviewer is letting his crazy lie pass - that it was a real image of his knuckles

Donald J. Trump having the same impact on trade as a literal plague fits nicely with my perception of him as a disaster of biblical scale. Like the wicked Old Testament kings God punished the Israelites with, he's a manifestation of American avarice and selfishness.

"Your health records will be on the block chain." "Everyone will live in the Metaverse." "All art will be NFTs." "Generative AI will replace the need for humans." We need to reckon with the reality that the tech industry no longer creates things that anyone wants.

In the absence of secular explanations I find "these people are guided by Satan and their only love is inflicting agonizing death in any way conceivable" works with just about flawless coherence

One more thing about this: If you're wondering why you're not seeing much coverage elsewhere, it's likely partly because I was one of only two credentialed press covering this — the other was a videographer, along with some non-credentialed press. Relatedly: hire more religion reporters.

The essence of U.S. Christianity is that there is a direct proportion between how much someone loudly proclaims that they are a Christian and how much they despise the actual stuff that Jesus enjoined people to do.

Trump’s playbook is simple: punish anyone who stands in his way. This ain’t law and order—it’s a rise of authoritarianism in real time.

You guys don’t need to try to convince me that any form of AI has merit. It doesn’t. It is boring and half-assed. I am fine getting by with human brain power. If the world nears its end and AI has one hater left, good news! I am still alive.

Jeffrey Sachs estimates that the Trump tariffs eliminated $10 trillion. That money didn't transfer or switch countries; it was destroyed. In a matter of days, one decision cost as much as 20 years of war in the Middle East or half the cost of the 2008 crash—by choice.
