Society does not teach men how to ask things.
A guy at the gym asked me for something super reasonable in the most off-putting way. That has to be socially inculcated right?

People really do post on BlueSky like everyone here is Gen X
Saw an article about someone "redefining what it means to be a pop-star." And just all the comments from people being like "who?" "never heard of her?" and it's just folks, we're in our 40s, just accept we won't know a lot of these people and that doesn't mean "music is dead." We're just old...

The Dems really, really, *really* need to make Miller the face of the administration, the way Musk was until recently. He’s hugely unlikeable and has the potential to create major drag if he is out front and center.
"The [GOP] bill contains the resources [Miller] needs to replay Los Angeles over and over and over again. If it doesn’t pass, he’ll lose his fix, like a junky whose stash gets flushed down a toilet."

K218B has signatures of life. It’s big, meaning stronger gravity, so the life there is probably not very tall; there’d be adaptive pressure to remain small and conserve energy.

Therefore, the FAA can't do its job well because it was gutted.
Therefore, they say "The FAA sucks, we have to privatize it." which is what Project 2025 wants to do. They're manufacturing the crises for their end goal.
