We’ve been getting a great tutorial on why so many people distrust the mainstream media since the debate. Reminds me of William Randolph Hearst promoting the Spanish-American War to sell more papers; these folks liked the Trump years because it made getting clicks easier.

This. If his condition is that much a liability for the party it's implausible that party leaders just found out. They should have been prepping for a post Biden party for years either way.

Trump can say he'll distance himself from Project 2025 as much as he wants, but in his last term he appointed every faithful FedSoc judge he could get his hands on, and that's basically the entire game.

Just a reminder that my worldbuilding consultation on RtV is still at $190, which is under what you'd pay for a regular consult with me.
If your bid goes over the normal consult fee, I'll scale what I'm willing to do accordingly.

The new COVID variant seems to be evading immunity from vaccines and past infections. COVID cases are up 250% in NYC. Remember the more you get covid your risk for long covid increases significantly.

I know nothing about PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE. I don't know the murderous aliens behind it, particularly Xarzon, who is a good friend. Anything they do, including raising the dead to destroy humanity, I wish them luck. But it has nothing to do with me. Hail Xarzon.

If all of this were just complete fabrications he would have put out a statement already saying "All of these things are complete fabrications" instead of laying low waiting for all of this to blow over.

There’s an obvious undercurrent in all of this suggesting that whatever the Democrats do to resolve this problem needs to be entertaining to journalists. And I gotta be honest I’m not sure that’s very important.

I think everyone who was like "great, now every environmental group ever should sue!" underestimated how swiftly those groups would be dwarfed by the juggernauts who are already collecting billions and billions of dollars from us and want more.

We didn't have FM radio or cable in the 80s so I was introduced to that song via "Dr. Zaius, Dr. Zaius" and going down an Alta Vista rabbit hole trying to figure out what it was parodying.

In the first United States Congress, one Congressman represented about 57,000 people. That seems like a good starting point. I think our government would actually be more functional with 5800 Congresspersons in the House.

The upside is that they're not super competent so it's entirely possible they give that kind of order before they have secured that degree of loyalty.

Having a lot of thoughts this week about parasociality and how overidentification with public figures and their work results in a reflexive rejection of accusations of wrongdoing not just because it shatters an illusion, but because it feels like a personal attack.

I think that's true today. I'm not sure that will be true when the time comes. They're going to work on securing the personal loyalty of at least some portion of the military.

Watching the British election returns I feel compelled to point out that the 650 person House of Commons represents 67 million people and the 435 person House of Representatives in the United States represents 333 million. Replace the Permanent Apportionment Act of 1929. We deserve representation.
