Being a historian, people ask me if I think the US is living through Germany 1933.

I answer no, analogies are always imperfect but to me it feels more like Russia 1999: a blatant theft of state assets and liberals in a fugue state, refusing to believe the arc of progress is bending against them.

Heaven's Gate really the GOAT cult. No weird sex stuff, no child abuse, just a bunch of nerds who were really into UFOs. Pretty harmless, up until, you know, the end

As a kid watching Red Dawn in the 80s, I definitely though the Russian takeover of the US would involve at least *some* tanks

Someone said that the problem with society right now is too many people are trying to look cool and so they're afraid to try... ANYTHING. And honestly, hard agree.

Which is why Kendrick's commitment to hating, Doechii's live performances, and Chappell Roan's entire look are being praised.

We do not throw away perfectly good food in this house.

We put it in Tupperware & wait for it to go bad & then we throw it away.

Please stop calling your elected representatives. They’re very old and very confused, and it does them no good to get all riled up

I keep thinking about 2020 when Trump lost and never stopped being a powerful messenger. It’s clear that the opposition party is lousy at messaging and only good for fund raising texts and emails. What’s the plan?

I think our tech development just outpaced biological evolution of the brain and we’re seeing the results.

one thing that I love about parenthood is that there is a universal bond around ridiculous shit you do to entertain your children

we are at swim class for the five year old and my wife is going around like a kangaroo while the seven year old chases her gleefully and no other parents even bat an eye

I think something we don't appreciate enough as a society is that for the majority of human history hearing a particular piece of music was only possible if you could find someone in a public place/event playing it, owned an instrument/knew it yourself, or were rich and could employ a musician.

Given the immense vastness of all the music ever created by humanity, it’s such a weird coincidence that the very best songs all happened to be released when I was aged 14-21.

if you're a tall person, not being a dick about passing someone a thing from a high shelf is how you get the shorts to actually care when you have to spend a whole flight with your knees bookending your chin
