"Let's meet in the middle," the other side says, and when you do, they step ten more steps to the right and say, again, "Let's meet in the middle!"

from a distance Nate Silver appears to be a long sad story of assimilationist brain, that’s all I see going on when he says he’s the prototype regular guy and people just have to be brave enough to prove it

Today we celebrate the strength and resilience of working people everywhere. Nearly 300,000 federal employees have lost their jobs this year not because of necessity, but because of a political agenda. And while people’s lives were destroyed in the name of “saving money,”

LOL! I dunno, are you looking for something static or something you can blog long-form on?

Hi authors! Please remember to file a claim!

I mean, you can go look for yourself, friend. Have a good evening.

This isn't about anyone else, this is about the number of people talking about Jill Stein, who is almost certainly a Russian asset. And it's about the necessity of fact-checking and doing due diligence before blindly reposting things. These are common sense things, not an attack on you.

There are a bunch of people who are saying they voted for Russian asset Jill Stein. I'm 100% behind genuine activism, but due diligence always these days.

When you're arguing with an actual expert in their field of expertise, yeah, you kind of are being a dumbass. Sorry.

Jesus, dude, you've been absolutely taken to the woodshed. Take your loss with some grace before you look even more like an asshole than you already do.

Super excited about this, actually, and hoping I manage to get a question in.

Something like 1% of people ever ask for validation of alleged debts, and if that figure went up to even 5% it would completely destroy the whole model of debt brokerage (and it NEEDS DESTRUCTION)

How are you jarring those, water bath or pressure? (Or freezer?)

Amen.

The hardest lesson from working in entertainment:

The popularity of most shows, books, & other properties is manufactured, not earned

Success is created (or suffocated) by the the people who control the platforms distributing media to the populace

Nothing succeeds on merit alone
