A horror story if ever I heard one!

I enjoyed @raviguru.bsky.social’s blog on lotteries as a policy tool this week ravigurumurthy.substack.com/p/should-pol...

I’m sure you’re right. “This isn’t a one shot game, we just play again with the next generation” feels very on brand

My thoughts on a major reason why the DOGE mindset is bad. If you thoughtlessly f*ck about at this intersection then you will find out.

I haven’t found one but it’s so lovely to hear from you!!! Silver lining

Is anyone maintaining some kind of simplified account of what’s happening in the US? I can’t tell what matters and what’s noise (which I assume is deliberate) and want a scant “in ten years we will see that this stuff mattered” timeline or something (obv it’ll be speculative).

I swear to God, if I see one more person excuse Musk's absolute and undeniable support of fascism, obviously not meaning @stevepeers.bsky.social, because "he is autistic" I will lose it. Amazingly I've managed to make it 43 years on this planet as an autistic individual without supporting the Nazis.

(Yes I was cheating on the NYT Crossword, what of it?)

These stats from the “List of Municipalities in Florida” Wikipedia page feel… totally wrong? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...

More constructively, I’ve deactivated my X account (had previously left it up but wasn’t checking it)

I don’t have anything profound to say but I need to say something because that was a Nazi salute and silence isn’t an option

Oooooh… so it’s about Daddy issues? That kind of makes sense tbh
