It’s not that I mind Europeans complaining about the heat, I’m sure it’s miserable
It’s their insistence that every American lives in a McMansion with central air that I find confusing. I have never once lived in a house or apartment with central air! It’s really not that common

My contribution to the "food is too expensive" vs. "zoomers don't cook" discourse:
The boomers grew up in the age of scientific home economics, which was especially important for girls. Their parents passed down recipes, high school would teach home ec, there were even

university programs. For a woman, planning meals, shopping, and cooking were the appropriate, middle class things to do. If you couldn't do this, if you let your family eat gross food made by teenagers, you were a failure as a wife and mother.

I had to try this for myself. It's true. It's all true.

For researchers concerned that AI-generated citations may get them banned from @arxiv, I have a suggestion:

You can tell AI bros are in a cult because of the reflexive, stereotyped use of millenarianist phrases like "left behind." Heaven's Gate left us behind, and most of us are fine with that. And then there's this...

Maybe the Iranians hacked his account and posted this to make him look like a war criminal maniac? Maybe one of his social media handlers got high on meth and posted it? Or maybe--this is the simplest explanation and corroborated by other facts--he's gone completely insane.

I'm glad that so many Democrats, liberals, and progressives have discovered the language of the Constitution means what it literally says, irrespective of inoperative clauses and post-ratification developments. Now let's get rid of the ATF and buy full-auto ARs!

I got my first censored tweet. I gave a Japanese person permission to gently remove an obstruction from an intersection. Some nanny AI thought it was "violent speech." I thought Elon bought this platform so we didn't have to put up with that.

I love how the Prequel discourse has come around again. Here are some facts from someone who was there:
1. Star Wars fans were not expecting more of the same. We had spent a decade immersed in different types of Star Wars stories and storytelling. From Timothy Zahn's relatively

If you're worried about the SAVE Act, this is the WORST advice possible. When applying for a passport, you are required to mail in your birth certificate. Then you don't have a BC *or* a passport for a couple months. Keep your BC and use it to register. It's all you need.

I don't particularly like the SAVE Act, I think the author doesn't fully understand the ID and citizenship verification systems that exist in the US. But after seeing liberals lie about it and spin absurd scenarios (what if the dog ate your passport), now I really want it to pass
