So, if we’re all supposed to believe in merit, let’s form Merit Verification Programs (MVP). A side-by-side will show that most of the time, charm, nepotism, or cronyism is this ‘merit’ phenomenon and not the result of some super genius outshining everyone.

New article argues that the dose–response schema for causes and effects may encourage us to believe that what we get out of life depends on what we put in:
"More effort = more success!"

Trump rants against 'the establishment'. My brother in christ, you're a billionaire, surrounded by billionaire robber barons and you just did a massive crypto scam. You are the establishment, you are the swamp. What a disgusting farce.

Someone tell that sanctimonious pixie Speaker Mike Johnson that if he places conditions on California's ability to rebuild, his state, Louisiana, the Welfare Queen of Federalism, won't be able to fix any of its roads because that money comes from the far more successful economy of California.

CEO of Bluesky 👇
Bluesky is built to make social more like the Web again, so we will never suppress links. Link to your writing, your art, your personal site — this is the social internet, designed from the ground up to be open and interoperable.
Hard to describe as a journalist how grateful I am to have a text-based app that does not suppress hyperlinks. I don’t know if people realize exactly how hostile the corporate internet has gotten toward news.

The slow trickle of MAGA folks over here underscores how much their experience of online is entirely dependent on people getting mad at them. It also underscores how even they, given the option, would rather not hang out with themselves either.
