The future will think she was named Pretti and he was named Good and historians will be like, "Achually ...". We ain't beating the allegations will live in a simulation.

The writers of Star Trek Academy are so addled they made a exemplary fascist episode while thinking they were progressive and enlightened. "Vitus Reflux" is shameful.

In light of what happened to Renee Good, I thought it important to reiterate my grandmother's advice.

This is why I get angry when people tell me I should deal with stress by doing pushups or seek medical intervention for feeling blue.

I have seen a lot of people say “what’s the point?” of doing their academic work in particular, and I get that. It’s like grief: the inbox, the day to day, doesn’t reflect any of the feelings.

But, gosh, a part of me stubbornly thinks: they want us to never think, they want it so badly.

IN 2026 In "twenty-twenty-six" as our great-ditto-grandchildren will call it, some collector of rare manuscript will exhibit an old newspaper, published in May 1926, giving an account of the first flights by airplane and airship to the North Pole. The value of the clippings will be due to their academic content, or, if our language is too academic, we might say, because of the fact that air transportation will then be so common that the people 100 years hence will wonder why it ever was given front page positions. --The Cochran Journal, 17 June 1926

People will read old newspaper clippings

Can I get an update on this, Jane?

“Like prime, but with human beings”

American media’s cowardice no match for Canadian media’s incompetence TORONTO – As CBS News under Bari Weiss leads the charge of American media kowtowing to the Trump administration by deleting a story about the torture of migrants, there is one thing they didn’t count ...

A Kindle screencap of the christmas description

I love this anthropological description of Christmas by Chris Beckett, from his novel Two Tribes.

All of these bootlegged copies of the 60 Minutes segment flooding my feed (saying, ‘Watch it quick! Before it disappears!’) makes me feel like I’m in the Soviet Union and just got some black market foreign newspaper I need to hide under a floorboard in my house.

This is where America is now

Chrome introducing splt view in tabs is one of those small things that's amazing and progressive which no one is going to talk about.

People have been saying this shit since 2017. During the Biden years the classified documents in the bathroom were supposed to make him ineligible for reelection. He’s not going anywhere soon.

Next year Clare, next year.

I read these novels as a teenager in the early 1990s and loved them, so I'm happy the TV adaptation is being made. When I first learned it was coming from the Daily Wire I was reminded that Dune was published by a company known for mechanical manuals. Sometimes good things come from the least likely

What they used to call genius they now call autism and it shows how people have always been entranced both by the spirit of difference and the belief that normies are essentially useless.

The scientific method was developed to become certain about what we can know and the enlightenment project was to ask people to think for themselves. The populace yearns for mystique and will make it up if it has to.

Wow! Sounds like an extremely useful guide!

was listening to a podcast where a China-resident analyst talked about visiting NYC and being stunned at how LOUD it was compared to Shanghai (not exactly a bucolic small town!)

This should probably be a YouTube ad campaign and not a post on BlueSky
