There are so many people living lives of quiet dignity despite horrific medical news or poverty or tragedy where every day they still wake up and try to be good people in the world even as the world pushes against them and it makes me even angrier at the absolute shitheads that rule over things

I think part of What's Going On with billionaires is that the daily friction of interacting with normal people is part of what anchors people to the real world, and once you have enough money to buy your way out of the friction you can knock down a load-bearing column propping up your sanity.

The actual secret to why I know stuff is that I ask a question any time I don’t understand literally anything. I don’t care how simple it is. Anybody who makes fun of you for asking a simple question likely doesn’t know the answer either

Happy birthday to the Soviet linguist Yuri Knorozov who casually deciphered the Mayan script in 1952 and got pissed when editors removed his cat as co-author on papers or cropped her out of his author headshot (the only picture of himself he even liked)

If someone constantly argues that women don't statistically have the same mental aptitudes as men, and tries to tell you that it's just Science and not because they're a sexist pig, you can point to the much strong empirical correlation between saying such things and actually being a sexist pig.

My dad made it clear that he wanted one daughter to become a skilled barista and the other a skilled bartender. He got zero baristas and one extraordinary bartender-in-law. Could’ve been worse.
it's not that i ever doubted that being a barista was a skilled position, but my year-long effort to try to produce a half-decent latte at home has convinced me that a good barista is easily more skilled than virtually every c-suite executive on the planet

Beyond the death-rattle of white supremacy invading our government—and many other governments around the world, we're also plagued by the shrill screams of a dying patriarchy. May we endure to see an evolved state of humanity that finally lays the brutal tribalism of our feral past to rest.

Just take a moment to really sit with the fact that someone in the White House thought “this will be funny” and wrote a prompt to generate video of King Trump shitting all over Americans. Completely bereft of human decency or any sense of the solemnity of government service.

someone with a billion dollars no longer experiences the world as 99% of humanity would recognize it, and so any “analysis” or critique of society they offer is fatally, irrevocably flawed. dracula complaining about the price of groceries
the disastrous refusal of the self-styled silicon valley technokings to keep anyone in their lives capable of questioning their increasingly incomprehensible politics has lead to a crisis of thinking so severe that a fifty-eight year old man believes something is important because he knows about it
