I would bet there are cuneiform tablets with a “posting does nothing” argument on them somewhere. Probably in a British museum, if we’re being real.

The optics are BAD all around here, but I think expressing a view of the world that is detached from reality is worse than being perceived as "slow and meandering."

I just listened to that presidential debate and I am APPALLED that the takeaway story was all about Biden and not Trump's insane bullshit. Trump bullied and lied for 90 minutes. Biden was my FIFTH choice four years ago, so I'm not a big fan. But Trump's lies are a complete negation of reality.

On top of all that where I live is only even part of the US because American businessmen got the marines to help them stage a coup and overthrow Queen Liliʻuokakani's constitutional monarchy with representative assembly in 1893. So, the Supreme Court and Orange Insurrectionist thing kinda tracks.

New study by Linsey Marr:
“We aerosolized SARS-CoV-2 & pulled it through masks. After 1hr we were able to recover infectious virus from fabric masks but not an N95 or surgical mask. When we pressed artificial skin against the masks we found viral RNA but no infectious virus on the skin.” #MasksWork

I really feel like what happened after the debate was unrestrained panic. No one took a second to breathe. Even if someone really wants Biden out, taking a breath would have been a good idea.

Every day proves Thaddeus Stevens right: there should've been big Nuremberg-style public trials of leading Confederates, accompanied by seizures of the assets of all pro-Confederate large landowners and businessmen, which should then have been distributed to freed slaves as compensation.

Even after FEMA said they'd pay the rent, and Maui County said they'd forgive all property taxes in properties rented to FEMA for the displaced families, out-of-state owners still said no. On social media some even said they simply don't want "those people" in their units. Racism plus classism :(

TIL that the New Wave band DEVO was formed in response to the Kent State shootings. In 1970, co-founders Gerald Casale and Bob Lewis got serious about their idea of the "de-evolution" of the human race after Casale's friends Jeffrey Miller & Allison Krause were killed by OH national guards.

Hawaiʻi is trying but the lobby of out-of-state property owners who use their Hawaiʻi properties as STVRs is very loud, very obnoxious, and very strong. And our government has been spending way too much time asking these people to be nice, especially after Lahaina burnt down. The owners DO NOT CARE.

A total ban is the only sane policy for Airbnb. There obviously needs to be accommodation in cities for visitors, but that shouldn’t be at the expense of housing units for people who actually live there. More governments should follow Barcelona’s lead.

I was impressed that despite having moved every two years growing up and living in 11 different states ranging from Hawaiʻi to New Hampshire, it pegged me in NYC metro area. That's because I learned to speak from my mother, who grew up in Queens and Western Long Island.
