Looking at the California 2026 ballot propositions, it seems Carl DeMaio is both racist and a sore loser.

I've been reading "The Dawn of Everything" by David Wengrow and David Graeber and came across a funny exchange in the comments of an interview article.

www.theguardian.com/science/2022...
A comment thread from The Guardian website. User "thirdtryforaname" dismisses archaeology as "very similar to psychology. A pseudo science. At best a hobby." claiming it's "simply fiction based on the odd scrap of evidence." User "UpperLeftEdge" responds asking if they're a scientist, explaining that social sciences face challenges because they study people rather than identical particles. User "freixanet" defends archaeology and anthropology as evidence-based disciplines using material culture analysis, dating techniques, and Bayesian statistics, telling the original commenter to read the book before dismissing it as pseudo science. User "Uneasiness" quotes thirdtryforaname's earlier comment claiming people waste Fridays "winding down" and complain about stress, then notes the irony: "Yeah, as an archaeologist am I not too fussed about their viewpoint on a 200 year old discipline."
