Good article and further evidence that Guyatt was not “cowed” by woke activists

This is *stunningly* disingenuous, and the fact that Singal continues to enjoy a career writing at the highest levels about a topic that he either unwilling or incapable of discussing honestly is such an indictment of the Anglo-American prestige media.

Oh History, you tease

Like Sojourners, I see Christian nationalism as a perversion of my faith. That’s why I'm putting my money where my values are at www.sojo.net/ricksteves, where I’m matching every donation, dollar for dollar, up to $50,000. Together, we can empower Sojourners with $100,000 at this critical moment.

In my public television special “The Story of Fascism in Europe” (www.ricksteves.com/fascism), we learn from Europeans whose families lived through fascism that a strong democracy requires vigilant and engaged citizens. We are all participants, we are all responsible, and freedom isn’t guaranteed.

joining the war on autism on the side of autism

many ppl highlighting flaws in this article. but having fought in the "80% desistance" wars of the mid-2010s, I remember asking anti-trans activists if they'd be ok if 80% of youth were helped by gender-affirming care (flipping their argument). & they *never* answered. b/c they want *zero* trans ppl

elite centrist/lib transphobia is one of those classic contrarian things where they’ve built up a huge pile of facially convincing “evidence” that collapses immediately if you put it under serious scrutiny

Rugby has been well officiated for over a century, grow stronger and be better

it's not just online dating lol a guy I met hiking sent me some of the weirdest most linked-in-ass texts I've ever received! sir I am a writer, don't disrespect me like that www.thecut.com/article/ai-i...

What’s more astonishing: 1) that the president clearly believes, and repeatedly suggests, that asylum seekers are people from mental asylums, or 2) that no journalist has ever challenged him on this and no mainstream media outlets have done any deep dives on this story?

Higher education in the USA is in a death spiral: ludicrous tuitions, defunding, censorship, repression, and a looming demographic cliff. That's a huge opportunity for English-language universities worldwide. www.cbsnews.com/news/college...

the hysteria has gone off the rails so far that the average american thinks 1 in 5 people are transgender. pure absolute insanity that is driving the current lavender scare

Covid is gonna shape American politics for years and years because it was the first time most Americans were asked to make sacrifices and they lost their minds because of it.

it is interesting to me... that we have observed in the span of two weeks the remembrances of two lives and the response to those two lives is very different ... what has been left behind polar opposites It's almost as if ... what you do matters

is this good

KAMLAGER-DOVE: Dylan Roof, who followed white supremacist propaganda, murdered 9 Black parishioners in 2015. Do you deny this? PATEL: I'm sorry. Dylan Roof? Can you give me more information? KAMLAGER-DOVE: You're head of the FBI

SWALWELL: Did you ever tell the AG that Trump's name is in the Epstein files PATEL: The AG and I have had numerous discussions about the entirety of the Epstein files S: Did you tell AG that Trump's name is in the files? P: *crashes out* S: We'll take your evasiveness as consciousness of guilt

it's so funny to see America's health insurance companies be like "look. If there's one thing we love it's denying you care. but we ran the numbers - and we cannot BELIEVE we're saying this - and it's cheaper for us to just pay for the vaccines than deal with you going to the ER."

robert redford is such a legend, he can make you forget that he was in a boring marvel movie

how disrespectful. let’s get this guy fired from his job.

A Black man and a homeless man were found hanging from trees in Mississippi yesterday, for those who haven’t seen yet because it’s barely made it out of local news.

showing the process: these images are composited in-camera. there is no photoshop involved. they're done with miniatures, lots of careful lighting, and modified model car kits (kitbashing + full electrical interiors)

this is biggie and tupac for people whose rural hospital is about to close

The media doesn't want you to know that like 92% of Americans died last year from illegal drugs. But we're not going to let them conceal the truth any longer.

Same day, back to back

I love this analytical take on video game categorization from Antoine Mayerowitz and Julie Belzanne: hushcrasher.substack.com/p/taxonomy-o... Instead of trying to vibe-intuit the definition of an "indie" game, the authors analyzed the data from the perspective of game size and credits length

The bullets had “trans markings”!! Oh wait, they didn’t? Well the killer was secretly trans!! Wait, he wasn’t? Well the killer had a trans girlfriend!! I mean roommate! Or he once walked by a trans person on the street!! Or heard “trans” on TV!! Trans!! Trans!! Trans!! (F’ing shameless monsters.)

A lot of parents have a way of treating their kids like some sort of underclass of person, they search their rooms, they monitor their communications and they are never to be treated “like a friend” which is how my parents were. I hated them then and I’m not super friendly with them now.

i think this article cuts to the heart of why i feel so uncomfortable around the idea of "cozy" or "wholesome" games. there's a whole ideological apparatus that surrounds them, as with any genre. they aren't escaping anything. :(

incredible

if this shooter winds up being a red-pilled groyper the Kirk newscycle length will be mysteriously cut from two months to two days

This is such a funny element to the Kirk eulogizing: they can’t describe him the way they’re describing him *and* show clips of anything he actually said or did
