Truth time:
Hillary Clinton ran a good campaign. Kamala Harris ran a great campaign considering the circumstances. Trump ran a shit show of a campaign both times.
He won anyway because
1. The mainstream media coverage did everything possible to help him
2. The voters made a dumb, terrible choice.

I'm sorry, why are we retroactively acting like his campaign was particularly good in 2024? It was a shit show, it just didn't matter.

I have so many ideas. Like, SO MANY! It’s gonna take me years to write them all, because the real work is turning ideas into stories that work.
Before AI I used to joke I wished I could only work at the idea department at Hildur Knútsdóttir and outsource production. That joke’s not funny anymore.

America, you have spoken loud and clear: You do not like AI. But what if AI is the way to restart the world’s idea machine?
We’re running out of good ideas. AI might be how we find new ones.

The lesson we should take when powerful people use drugs is that lots of people use drugs, and those people deserve housing, healthcare and dignity.

I have met Susie. She could not have been more pleasant to me in person. It was also *palpably* obvious that she is Evil. I don’t mean that in a small way of she’s mean or devious, but a big one: she’d wear your skin as a suit in a nanosecond if it was chilly outside and never think of it again.
I don’t even know what to make of this level self-delusion, cognitive dissonance and moral cowardice

Virginia is full of hope and promise.
This is incredible news. Today, Virginia officials will unveil a statue of Barbara Johns at the Capitol to replace one of Confederate General Robert E. Lee that had stood for more than a century. www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...
Statue of Black teen who fought segregation replaces Robert E. Lee at U.S. Capitol
Barbara Rose Johns was only 16 when she led a walkout in 1951 to protest horrendous conditions at her segregated high school for Black students in rural Farmville, Virginia.

When we say someone played a "critical role" in making something happen, we are often acknowledging that they might have been a catalyst or worked 1000 hours etc... But the idea of a "role" means that you need others to play roles too. It's a collective effort and that means others are part of it.

I can't afford eggs, my kid has the whooping cough, and the data center down the road has caused my electricity bill to triple. But at least the mascot for my town's high-school football team is still a drunk guy dressed up as an American Indian.

A lot of what people imagine politically for this country can't actually happen under the current Democratic party. That's something that I don't see lots of people actually reckoning with. There is no way to do most of the things that some people want to do through the Democratic party.

I once knew a Federal bank examiner, and one time someone asked him why we had to KEEP inspecting banks over and over. He basically said every new batch of business school grads invents bank fraud from first principles.

The underlying cause of every bubble - debt masquerading as financial innovation - depends on not just short financial memory & speculative neophytism, but reinventing jargon of finance, like how each generation of kids has new ways to say same things.
