Neither of these teams is at bat.

Yes, but the wording sounds more like “I’m eager to put my time to productive use”.

Add 3 spoonfuls of capers and maybe a few cloves of garlic and toss it in the blender. A few second-long pulses later, you have tapenade, which resists all regrets.

If only DOGE would have simply proceeded by cutting all of its own staff and funding.

If you ever take a calculus or precalculus class, when you are testing for minima and maxima across a zone, you usually test the corners first. The wisdom therein is that you don’t know for sure whether you are starting out centered on the critical point.

It’s the same thing for politics. You can’t assume that the observable range is equidistant from The Truth in all directions. In many cases, you’re going to have an edge or a corner that is closest. Starting out by saying “we’re going to define truth simply by the average of the opinions that are out there” assumes that all perspectives are equally reasonable, that the average of the masses is always right, that it does not need to evolve, and that it is immune to manipulation. All of these assumptions are deeply wrong. Using this approach, you are always going to end up defining truth by the principles of strangers, instead of developing your own principles.

You’d think it can’t be worse, but you’d be wrong.

What does “a decent shot at the future” mean? My entire life is oriented around building things like “lifehouses” where people can thrive amidst the crumbling empire.

If I wanted to, I have a good sized list of places that I could go live, have a decent community around, and be utterly invisible to anyone who would pose a threat to me. But I want to expand until the carrying capacity of these places goes, from thousands currently, all the way up to hundreds of thousands.

Bad memories, they’re never going to be purged.

Not having a door was way worse than sharing a small dorm room.
