2/ This week you will read many confused economists and political pundits who won’t understand how the tariffs make economic sense.
That’s because they don’t. They aren’t designed as economic policy. The tariffs are simply a new, super dangerous political tool.

A Take so Hot that I posted it a day early, lest it burn through my Internet cables: "Adolescence," that show about the Manosphere that everyone loves, isn't any good at talking about the Manosphere. Come with me on a journey of discovery: jude-doyle.ghost.io/a-difficult-...

New, from me:
Trump is whitewashing American history, removing not just people, but also the stories, images, and values to anyone who does not conform to his impoverished vision of America.
Here is a partial inventory. 🧵

Queen's University Belfast has today joined other UKHE universities by launching a Voluntary Severance Scheme, citing rapidly rising operational costs, the Northern Ireland cap on domestic students, a decline in international students, & an operational deficit (£12.7m) in 2023-4.

I was just gonna say this! You often hear 'reasonable moderates' saying things like "Well I just think we should have standards for athletes."
We have this! Athletes are required to be on hormones for months or years before they can compete as a woman.

The same is true of sports. It is not easy for trans women to play on women's sports teams, and gets harder the higher the level of competition.
People demand a balance of fairness and inclusion that already exists, and wind up furthering outright bans that exist to other and punish trans women.

What drives me nuts about the trans youth "debate" is how much of it consists of people who don't know anything demanding compromises that already exist.
Hormones and surgeries for minors receive ABSURD amounts of regulation and scrutiny! Either engage with the facts on this issue or shut up.
