Reminder that the Waffle House index isn't a joke, it's a very real correlative metric and if you see a waffle house not just closed but BOARDED UP, then shit in that area is likely to be very very bad, and you should take it seriously.

If I had "give $100 million to a university" money you'd all immediately suspect it because the humanities would be revitalized and there would be an endowed tenured biology position for studying sheep.
sometimes I see people comment on how it's unfortunate that rich people tend to do <insert awful thing> with their money rather than stuff like this, which seems somewhat less evil
and unfortunately, it turns out you can actually do a lot of societal damage with a university endowment

This is basically how we got Milton Friedman, how we got Ronald Reagan, and how we got the up-by-your-own-bootstraps, winner-take-all, profits-over-people economy that's leaving so many Americans (and especially women and moms) still struggling today.

Was talking about “terrible gentrifier chairs” with my bar manager tonight! He described them as such and I immediately knew what he meant.

Tim Walz: Here’s my life hack for all the guys out there: surround yourself with smart women and listen to them and you’ll do just fine. That includes my fellow cat owner Taylor Swift.
It’s really great to have all of these women help us beat the smallest man in the world.. Donald Trump

Let's explain the dynamics of participatory disinfo/propaganda in the online era. Elites put out strategic/distorted frames (e.g. "immigration is harmful"). Audiences generate content to fit the frames (e.g. rumors about pets). Influencers amplify & pass the content back up the chain to the elites.

I shared this image on Threads saying this was on Vance because Trump is a moron but Vance knows better - and it was removed.
Wonder if the NYT or WaPo will cover this kind of shit. There's a direct line between Trump and Vance talking about Haitians and the fact that they're now being specifically targeted by the Klan and mentioned alongside Springfield.

First, Trump and JD Vance adopted a conspiracy theory from Nazis, Blood Tribe, designed to exploit difficulties of expanding population.
Trump made a false Nazi claim to 60M people.
Now Trump's false claim is eliciting terror threats shutting down hospitals and universities.
