i'm not saying this as anyone who knows anything about health; i'm saying it as someone who is an alleged expert in interest group politics: the American beef industry is all over MAHA, wellness, and podcast spaces.
remember "bacon mania?" totally a marketing strategy by the pork industry.

New federal dietary guidelines give federal approval to beef tallow, a fat that both cardiologists and the U.S. government told Americans to avoid for nearly half a century.

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.
I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.

Sorry, TTRPG creators: I have enough games and not enough bookshelf space, so you'll have to stop making them now, I'm afraid.

Seems like a good time to watch that video of Main's "There Is Only Light" synched to pics of nuclear explosions.

There's little that is more likely to make me not want to engage with your "content" than you assuming what I have or haven't heard of in the title.

The hubspot ad featuring office drones rushing around desperately searching for their employer's missing data is yet another sign that advertisers despise you and think you are idiots. (Ironically, it's also a reason why I despise advertisers and think they are idiots)

Next month I will launch Cairn Press.
I tried to make a publishing agreement that is fair, free, and mutually beneficial. Once the lawyer approves final contract I'll release it as CC-BY-SA, if possible. I've also written up a "plain English" version that you can read here:

Neoliberalism is a term Milton Friedman promoted in the early 1950s to describe a "middle way" between the state and the market. It was in actually anything but that.
It was the takeover of the state by the private big business class, who like the earlier robber barons fought to undo the New Deal.
