Definitely not the most important issue with Platner but it's pretty interesting how many of these stories about his campaign's resilience cite the Reddit comments about policing and/or socialism but not the posts about sexual assault

The next recession is going to make Occupy look like the Senate Democratic caucus.
This is insane. This is *literally* doing the same mechanics of the housing crisis and 2008 recession but to create debt to finance construction of AI data centers

A cousin is anyone near your age in your family or some kid who is around a lot and an aunt is an older lady who gives a shit about you.

repost this if an editor has ever saved you from yourself
An actual hot take: Too many authors are afraid of editors watering down their voice or whatever and not afraid enough of editors letting you put any old slop on the page.

One of the most common (now waning) criticisms I see of independent, journalist-owned media is that they don't have the resources, know-how, or ability to do big projects, serious reporting, or do things like file lawsuits. We and other outlets are proving that's not true ... you can just ... do it

my father-in-law is a “I know a guy” Guy. sadly all the old Guys are aging out of the Guy Economy. Guys are fundamentally incompatible with Hustle Culture because it’s not about “winning” a deal, it’s about collecting favors and goodwill in a mutually-beneficial cycle. protect your local Guy Economy
