Thanks!!! I was worried the black and light blue would look a bit too Business Casual (given the subject), but I think it worked. 🙂

I'm old enough to remember that they seriously tried to use 9/11 to ban internet porn. You see, Al Qaeda was hiding messages in pornographic images!

I've noticed in recent years that "simplify" is often being used as a synonym for "make more horrible."

The conservative "value" of never admitting to a mistake means they're stuck defending all the things they got wrong in science class.

My favorite part of this storyline was that it definitely answered the Hulk vs. Superman question for me. The answer is, "If they fought, they'd both die and then they'd both get better."

There were 16 trans youth suicides after gender affirming care restrictions were implemented in the UK in 2020 compared with only 1 in the 7 years prior. Staff at the NHS attempted to cover it up. Hilary Cass knew but minimized what was happening. This is a massive scandal. Cass lied, kids died.

Bitcoin consumes about 2.5% of US electricity, about the same as all residential cooling. An article decrying *that* electricity usage as a personal moral failing would be much less tone deaf.
