Mounting a TV on wheels rather than the wall is the much better move

My latest newsletter is about how centrist pundits got the lessons of the 2024 election wrong, and how the politics of 2025 exposed them.

brother has moved to the otherside of the world for the next year, took him basically 24 hours of flying, but him and his gf are off on their adventure

Welcome back to online, here is a cool (and mildly upsetting) interview about how keeping up with massive entertainment franchises is not unlike being a conspiracy theorist, among other things

Thankful to my Bluesky feed for giving me these two posts from @mamavitelli.bsky.social and @baronduki.bsky.social back to back
