to love him that is honest, to converse with him that is wise and says little, to fear judgment, to fight when I cannot choose, and to eat no fish. sites.google.com/site/yourquade… Cincinnati, OH Joined July 2008

@BCDreyer We don't want YOU to use a second space. We just want to be left alone to observe our traditional way of life.

human nature has clearly changed over time: - people are vastly smarter thanks to better nutrition and abstract language environments - people are less cruel and violent due to their distance from warfare - exiting malthusian poverty removes many foundational traumas

The key thing about US is how we can have so much and yet be so miserable. Like the last 8 years the US has grown and grown and grown. Especially compared to rest of the world. And yet, everyone is an angry, bitter, yell-y, depressed, mess. Especially on here...

@horseysurprise @elonmusk "Dune" isn't a philosopher. It's a novel.

As long as there have been rich people, there have been rich people trying to position themselves as populist crusaders against "experts," where "experts" are people with way less money and power who say things that rich people don't like to hear.

One of those times where the thing you’re seeing obviously can’t happen and is basically absurd. And yet it is happening. So you have to reevaluate what is obvious.

I wish human nature was wired for us to become obsessed with good people rather than terrible ones.

Incredible how the entire "quiet quitting" narrative began and ended with essentially no real evidence beyond some random managers' fears and a self referential media cycle. Entirely vibes based crisis.

We’re really learning some Buddhist lesson about impermanence and it’s terrible.

People say Twitter-as-news has made us stupider, but deducing what actually happened from the jokes is a SKILL. You try and make sense of the Bay of Pigs Invasion from two hundred accounts tweeting, 'It's me, I'm the pigs.'

@inverseflorida If Musk gives Trump his Twitter back, how quickly will this change?

Given that election deniers just got whomped everywhere, the chances seem low that the House GOP would A) go in for an election-denial coup that everyone America would hate, and B) be able to exercise utterly perfect party discipline in favor of that coup.

In an age of information overabundance, critical ignoring is as important as critical thinking.

That's not the worst possible scenario, but I do feel like this would have a significant possibility of spiraling into a world-destroying WW3. So hopefully Putin's generals will remove him if he tries this.

Yes, if there can be one positive thing to take from this freaking catastrophe, it’s that people will stop talking about war being relatively easy to execute. War is normally a disaster for the side waging it as well as the side being attacked.

thehill.com/policy/defense… such a quick turnaround from “US needs stable/predictable relations with RU, disregarding UA security interest as result, to concentrate on China” to “Successful UA strategic defensive operation should make China to think twice before invading Taiwan”.
