The hosts of The Apprentice and Fear Factor are two of the most powerful conservative figures.

The left needs a host from the 2004 Fall NBC lineup.

The biggest national security threat from the gifted 747 is the chance that the inflight entertainment system comes pre-installed with an insecure Signal clone.

The first papal conclave was held in 1276.

There was cooler electoral experimentation starting around the same time. From 1268-1797, Venice elected the Doge via a 9-round system involving random selection of voters.

Please make this a Ralph Fiennes movie.

Spent two weeks devising a procedurally complex legal system for my D&D group to navigate. Very high fantasy stuff.

Listening to the latest @worldsbeyondnumber.bsky.social episode while planning tomorrow's D&D session. I feel bad for my players.

Holy Hell! If I had not cancelled my NYT subscription before I’d be doing it now that they are platforming Curtis “Monarchies Gave Too Many Freedoms” Yarvin! No, we don’t need an INTERVIEW with the Moldbug. Damnit NYT, what are you thinking?

Seated near a calm river.
The herons hunt for crab and fish.
I eat the same, serene. Then I realize if I don’t make my train, the hotel will not let me check in.
Greedily, I devour the feast.
The nice women who run the shop make sure I’m on time, and give me a parting jar of yuzu kosho.

Fearing most:

- mass deportations, police state required to try it, resulting death/suffering
- severe recession or depression from tariffs, deportations, ensuing civil unrest
- violence against protesters
- weaponization of DOJ, IRS, FCC
- “unleashed” cops & vigilantes
- Baltics, Poland, Taiwan

He tried to hold on to power and assassinate his own VP. And half the country is voting for him.
