The financial press is so bad. So little critical thinking, just focused on access and pushing a narrative. No attempt to inform. I know it’s been this way for a long time but watching them these last few months is something else.

Serious question: Why are white people so afraid of becoming a minority? Does America treat minorities badly or something?

Ken Klippenstein has published Luigi's full manifesto.
"Many have illuminated the corruption and greed... decades ago and the problems simply remain. It is not an issue of awareness at this point, but clearly power games at play. Evidently I am the first to face it with such brutal honesty.”

![“To the Feds, I'll keep this short, because I do respect what you do for our country. To save you a lengthy investigation, I state plainly that I wasn't working with anyone. This was fairly trivial: some elementary social engineering, basic CAD, a lot of patience. The spiral notebook, if present, has some straggling notes and To Do lists that illuminate the gist of it. My tech is pretty locked down because I work in engineering so probably not much info there. I do apologize for any strife of traumas but it had to be done. Frankly, these parasites simply had it coming. A reminder: the US has the #1 most expensive healthcare system in the world, yet we rank roughly #42 in life expectancy. United is the [indecipherable] largest company in the US by market cap, behind only Apple, Google, Walmart. It has grown and grown, but as our life expectancy? No the reality is, these [indecipherable] have simply gotten too powerful, and they continue to abuse our country for immense profit because the American public has allwed them to get away with it. Obviously the problem is more complex, but I do not have space, and frankly I do not pretend to be the most qualified person to lay out the full argument. But many have illuminated the corruption and greed (e.g.: Rosenthal, Moore), decades ago and the problems simply remain. It is not an issue of awareness at this point, but clearly power games at play. Evidently I am the first to face it with such brutal honesty.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:wo3lxbcfvdptzxyvq3qt2rgj/bafkreidiv64xb5sox32ljpkjv42eywyxba4cgwcltq4d3sxwmxbzxd4fte@jpeg)

I never understood how can cities well into hundreds of thousands of inhabitants have so much wasted space in their downtowns. It's just absurd.
Not to mention how this damages walkability and the urban microclimate (less greenery and more asphalt = hotter cities)

I’ve been really enjoying running and cycling in this cold snap over the Mid-Atlantic US. It’s been dry and the wind has been relatively calm early. Low to mid 20’s aren’t bad if you got the gear.

Kavanaugh also brings up "detransitioners," people who "regret" their decision to transition genders. Like Alito, he cites European countries that are "pulling back" from gender-affirming care for minors, saying it's a "yellow light" or "red light" for the court that Europe is "pumping the brakes."
