My sister and I have been fighting a decade-long battle over who doesn’t get my dads snowman tchotchke collection
From fine china to model trains, millennials and Gen Xers stand to inherit much more than money.
Boomers Are Passing Down Fortunes — And Way, Way Too Much Stuff
As the $90 trillion Great Wealth Transfer begins, millennials and Gen X aren’t just inheriting money. They’re being buried under an avalanche of baseball cards, fine china and collections of all sorts.

“Gollum in the Garage” will be the new “Elf on the Shelf”
I'm concerned about crime among the most wealthy too, but I don't see how this is going to prevent them from committing it?

Everybody already knew you played hockey once you described basketball as “DEI for tall people”
No, I played hockey, a sport where it doesnt matter how tall you are as long as you can play.

To be clear, it’s not just Wemby. Them getting Harper too accelerated their timeline so much.
That sound you hear might be multiple title windows being slammed shut by the Spurs. To be clear, not OKC’s. But it might be too late for anyone hoping for one last ride.

Why on earth would you follow me if this is going to come out of your mouth?
What a cool sport when you know multiple teams don't have a chance simply because one team signed the tallest guy on the planet. Try to convince me basketball isn't just a dei sport for freakishly tall people.

Establish a pool where every team gets paid a 1/1230 share for each win and convincing ownership to tank becomes a whole lot harder.

Yglesias is basically Ball Don’t Stop for politics at this point.
This is a surgical dismantling of yet another dumb Matt Yglesias argument by a former clean energy exec and current Representative. This is the sort of thing that should make people stop listening to people like Yglesias.
Read the whole thing.
Read the whole thing.
This Yglesias piece in the NYT is horrifically bad. Almost every "fact" it cites is provably false. At best it is cocktail party banter from a pundit who knows nothing of energy. At worst, it was cut/paste from oil industry talking points. So, a rebuttal: www.nytimes.com/2025/12/18/o...

Substacker calling anyone “clout chaser” is Mr Bean levels of lack of self-awareness
Yglesias referring to Senator Van Hollen as a "safe seat clout-chaser" is so despicable. VH took a stand to prevent Abrego García - an innocent man - from being disappeared into CECOT for life.
matt & co’s theory of how public opinion on immigration would respond to new information was simply empirically wrong.
at this point the only reasonable conclusion is they refuse to update their priors w/ new data because the data is inconvenient for them

I routinely have to mentally remind myself that me/people who look like me are not some sort of default because we’re so conditioned to see it that way.
White men are 30% of the US and if they look around the room and see it’s less than 90% white men they think it’s affirmative action.
85% of CEOs are white men.
All but one US President has been a white man.
65% of all elected offices are held by white men.
Roughly 30% of the population is white men.
WHAT THE FUCK IS THIS TOPIC EVEN???

Fucking magnets, how do they work?
FOX: If you cut something by 100%, the cost goes down to 0. If you cut it by 600%, the drug companies are actually paying you
LUTNICK: What he's saying is if a drug was $100 and you bring it down to $13, it's down 7 times
F: Not a 600% cut
L: But it's 700% higher price before. It's down 700% now

Do they like it more or less than radical centrists don’t like to acknowledge factual developments which contradict their pet theories?
I said that raising the salience of immigration was counterproductive to the goal of winning the senate races needed for a majority and I don’t think anything has happened that should change my mind about that.
But good progressive soldiers don’t like to acknowledge tradeoffs.
