One of the most enlightening things about this was how boring people like Miller are. They merge two qualities: being unremarkable and lacking a shred of moral dignity. In that way, they are simply the worst person you knew in high school — an archetype as exciting as unflavored shredded wheat.
The last story I did as a freelancer is finally out!
For @slate.com I took a deep dive into the world of Katie Miller as she sheds her image as government attack dog and rebrands herself "trad-wife-in-chief" for her new podcast

She’s Married to the Architect of Trump’s Darkest Policies. She Wants America to Love Her. It’s Not Going Well.

Donald Trump organized one of the largest moments of political violence in US history, evaded justice, and pardoned all of the perpetrators. So forgive me if I don't think he will be the one to bring an end to political violence in America.

Ah yes, I often accidentally say global jihad when I mean something else too. It's a shame that it rhymes so closely with "popular progressive policies".

james surowiecki has discovered where the completely fabricated trump tariff rate has come from for each country
"...for every country, they just took our trade deficit with that country and divided it by the country's exports to us."

Was listening to an Ezra Klein podcast where a man was asserting that Trump was 100% free speech so this totally aligns with an administration that is doing all it can to uphold constitutional liberties 🫠

As someone who spent the better part of a decade working in Payments, most of that at Google, there's a reason it's the most guarded and watched part of every company. Even a tiny mistake can tie up millions and millions of dollars for weeks. It's all just stupid.

Through comments, I learned about other big myths Americans believe about foreign aid:
1/ it's risen past 1% in recent years, esp. due to Ukraine - false, max is about 0.5% in 2022 $80B
2/ it's used mostly *not* for humanitarian aid - nope
3/ It's mainly about military objectives - nope
