This may summarize his thinking but he didn’t write it. It’s somewhat coherent and the sentence structure is more complex than his usual rants. Plus, there’s only minimal unnecessary capitalization and no ALL CAPS.

Yes, Tahoe OS 26.1 is a step back. This "Liquid Glass" feature is going to go down as one of Apple's biggest user experience gimmick flops.

The Growing Divide in the Rainbow Coalition More gay people are speaking out against the gender ideology of trans and queer activists.

This article says that support for same-sex marriage has declined in the U.S. But the Gallup survey cited asked about "Gay or Lesbian relations," which is not the same as "same-sex marriage." Which leaves me wondering about other studies this piece cites.

How empty do you have to be to not care that you will be forever remembered as a racist punk devoid of any redeeming qualities?

It’s alarming how many unserious people there are. But even more serious: how many are totally lacking in empathy

This Los Angeles economic warning sign is flashing red Decline in new businesses opening up spells trouble for city finances…

These reports from Crosstown are really informative and telling of what's happening in LA. As a progressive, it pains me that our politicians don't see that business & housing creation is key to solving many of the city's problems. Meanwhile, our infrastructure is crumbling for lack of tax income.

Miles, like other GOP converts, saw the error of his ways only after he and his wife personally felt the consequences of his politics. Would he still be in the GOP if that hadn't happened? Maybe not. But if you have empathy, you don't need to feel the damage yourself to say, "This is wrong. I quit."

My Last Day as an Accomplice of the Republican Party Why I’m leaving the GOP and why I’m urging my former colleagues to do the same.

While I appreciate Miles' turnaround β€” I was a conservative acolyte of Buckley and Ayn Rand in my foolish youth β€” his story points up a truth abt today's GOP: To be a member, you have to be totally lacking in empathy. 1/

He’s a hollow nihilist with no moral core. There’s no such thing as a β€œlow point.” And so the presidency continues to be degraded day after day
