An underappreciated aspect of the Nazi rise is how quickly German *society* fell into line. In early March 1933, a majority of German voters voted against the Nazis. By late spring, pretty much the whole country backed them. How did that happen? Here's a little thread. (1/6)
Superb article in the Atlantic yesterday about how Hitler destroyed the political system of the Weimar Republic between January and March of 1933.

Taking care of a person with dementia is a massive burden ngl. Answering the same four questions for four hours is no fun.
You know it would get worse but you could not imagine it could be this bad. And it's still going to get much worse.

Musk versus Loomer fight is classic. The ruler’s scheming eunuch is involved in a power struggle with his concubine while he blissfully ignores his responsibilities in his palatial Southern estate. Been done a billion times from Byzantium to Beijing.

This is the most comprehensive account of the H5N1 epizootic in the US that I’ve read. I’ve been surprised and concerned about our response for months, and it’s even worse than I thought.

Thiel really out there showing off that Stanford education
Piers Morgan asked Antichrist Peter Thiel what he would say to people who celebrated Luigi Mangione — who was a fan of Peter Thiel & Elon Musk — for murdering an insurance CEO.
If someone can find a worse answer to any question, I’d love to see it. This is excruciating.

It should be illegal for an isekai featuring a pig to have such a sad story. I want to see cute isekai girls doing fun things, I don't want to see cute girls getting harvested for their organs in my isekai.
