El Niño and La Niña are little children of our former calm climate.

What is coming next is
El hombre and La mujer

The big grownup weather is about to hit.

Yeah, that Bloomberg Quadrant looks like it’s occupied solely by substackers and podcasters.

I think I probably have ADHD, I've been encouraged by professionals to do all the research I can, and now I've learned all sorts of things that are really interesting and none of them are about ADHD

I double checked after I posted because although the green eyebrow header was a major tip-off, I’d hate sending out false info.

If you Google “Margot Jollenston,” it’s the first hit.

15 years ago @jevinwest.bsky.social and I talked about how we needed a data scientists’ code of ethics like the Hippocratic oath.

We still do.

Of course, one of the reasons the UK has got to this position is precisely because of several decades of an economy based on making police procedurals. Each time a scriptwriter has a good idea for a plot, Home Office civil servants watching the show think about stopping it.

The other thing with the "crisis of young men" stuff is that there's like a segment of young men who really suck, but in a lot of ways the men who don't, suck less than men did in previous generations

A.G. is a bit young to have been caught up in the Epstein stuff directly.

His dad, who was the NYT publisher at the time, is only a few years younger than Trump.

I know. Trump stuff broke my best friend from high school.

We spent the years between 2006 and 2016 trading e-mails about policy and politics in what was essentially a private blog. Probably wrote a million words between us.

He’s been living in his car since 2018.

>/ discount the testimony of people who seem even a little “off.” Let alone the fact that the truth sounds more lurid than fiction.

So we have powerful people fighting to keep the lid on and truthtellers sounding (or going) mad.

Given that dynamic, it’s amazing so much has come to light. /end
