Discworld QOTD, from Moving Pictures "If the abnormal goes on long enough it becomes the normal. It was just that, when you came to explain it to a third party, it sounded odd."

Discworld QOTD, from Feet of Clay “People said that there was one law for the rich and one law for the poor, but it wasn't true. There was no law for those who made the law, and no law for the incorrigibly lawless.”

everyone online: Okay so here's what we do, we invoke the 25th amendment and add 6 Justices to Supreme Court, and if we can convince 5 senators to run the Constitutional Protocol, the actual government: Starting in 2026 if you make under $40,000 a year the Space Force will use you for fuel

I think that in order to handle the absolutely crushing caseload this decision will create we should, as soon as practiceable, add six justices

In case no one has told you lately: 1. You are strong 2. You are beautiful 3. Sea cucumbers have fish that live in their buttholes and eat their ever-regenerating gonads like some sort of sick undersea Prometheus 4. You are deserving of love

the fact that we can look at most major problems with our lives and guess "this is the fault of private equity" - and have that actually be correct a shockingly large percentage of the time - is an excellent reason to regulate the industry into the ground

Since we're talking about Star Wars: at its heart, Star Wars is about, in rank order: airplanes, being friends with A Creature, magic, martial arts, and the alienation of parental affection, which is all to say, give the franchise to Miyazaki and we might finally get a good one.

Israel invaded Lebanon in 1978. Carter describes what happened next in "The Blood of Abraham": The US notified Israeli Prime Minister Begin we were going to cut off all military aid to Israel & present a resolution condemning it at the UN. Begin immediately said: "It's over."

Sam Altman is not the PT Barnum of tech. Barnum sold you a ticket off a lie & then you went home. Altman's the Donald Trump of tech-a non expert alleged sex pest grifter who is selling a scam whose marks will be in it for years if not decades & will ruin everything it touches except his bank account

Boba Fett was a disaster. Almost incomprehensibly bad. I thought Mando S1 was quite good, the rest rather less so.

During my couple of years in academia I rapidly reached what I think is the only defensible attendance policy: none. Lectures are recorded, exams/homework are announced well in advance, and I have regular office hours. You are an adult, I will trust you to make adult decisions about your education.

There are no ubermenschen. The promise of eugenics is a sick and obvious lie used by the terminally insecure and self-hating as a security blanket against their own desolate inner lives.
