Unless it's sarcasm, there probably isn't any subtext. No bigotry, no pseudoscience. If you can't tell where I stand, don't guess. Ask.

Listened to episode 1 of Bridgewater. Cast full of both bonafide stars and very talented actors I'm not acquainted with. Good writing, pacing, and I'm pretty sure I know how I'm going to spend the rest of my weekend. Thanks, @amahnke.bsky.social

I am so grateful whenever someone shares It's Storytime with new listeners. I thought the hard part was making the episodes, but that was trivially easy, compared to how much work and effort it takes to ensure people who will love the podcast find out it exists. Thank you, We Have Issues :)
I cannot stress this enough. If you love literature, check out Its Storytime from @wilwheaton.net. Not only is a wonderfully well-made show, it gives an amazing spotlight to works that actually need it. Link attached for different podcast services.

Something I think about is how common it is for inexperienced people to think they can do complex jobs they're not qualified for and then very qualified people are always like I don't know what I'm doing how did I ever get this job I need to work harder.

People spend a lot of time wondering why the left is worse at using independent media to control the national narrative.
A useful exercise is to ask why the left is also worse at selling snake oil and pyramid schemes, because I think the reasons are basically exactly the same.

'Adolescence' is a parental nightmare. Here's what to tell kids about online extremism : Life Kit
It's a horror to think your kid could be a victim in a violent act of racism, sexism or other radicalization. It's a whole different kind of fear to think they could be the perpetrator of that act.

Let me say this very clearly. No one should ever have to repay disability or social security payments without a trial proving fraud. Period. No one should ever have to repay the government because the government screwed up.

Realistically acknowledging events & reactions that are out of our control & placing proportional blame where it belongs is not a "victim mentality." Actual accountability is as much about letting go of what isn't our fault as it is taking responsibly for our role.

“Functional medicine” was invented in the 1990s by Jeffrey Bland to sell dietary supplements and shot to fame by its poster boy, Mark Hyman.
It is a marketing term designed to confuse patients, promote pseudoscience, and sow distrust in mainstream medicine.
It is a scam.

The anti-LGBTQ+ proposal rejected today by Disney shareholders was brought by the same anti-DEI group that lost in overwhelming votes to Costco, Apple, and John Deere shareholders. The National Center for Public Policy Research is now 0-4 in its anti-diversity shareholder proposals this year.

Patriotism is the optimistic belief that your country could be the best. Nationalism is the ignorant belief that it already is.
