I am a populist when the people are right, an elitist when the elitists are right, and a curmudgeon when neither are right.
It's interesting how "anyone can do anything if just given the opportunity" has taken with the right in recent years. It's historically more prominent on the other side.
When we confiscate the wages of Alabama mechanics and Kansas farmers to spend billions on university research, their children should be first in line for the funded graduate research positions they’re financing. I’m tired of making zoomers compete with everyone on earth.
Never has the word "try" been so noticed as it was there.
Concept has been around a long time, and word of warning, it has never been done successfully. Notice the word "Try" in there.
That's.... cheap
My daughter recently had an ear infection. Took her to the doctor, who prescribed an antibiotic. That doctor visit cost $244. My insurance covered $60, so we owe $184 out of pocket. I pay $556/month for family health insurance. Something seems broken.
When I was around college age it was a thing to go to Korea. Prior to that Japan.
i like jokingly applied to teach english in china because it was insane money and they’re interviewing me lol
"183 casualties, but that's how we learn valuable lessons."

Much better for families than most hotel rooms and cheaper than the hotel rooms that are better for families.

The biggest problem is that "X" is a placeholder. It's a reference to nothing.
We underestimate how important a company’s *name* is. I sincerely believe Elon could stop the bleeding by simply switching back to “Twitter.” “X” connotes a dozen different things, all of them negative (strike, wrong, negative, former, blank space, porn, illiteracy, etc.)
I went through this same process! I accidentally bought two cases and decided after the first or second one that I was not a fan.
I have suffered through 23 orange cream coke zeros and finally this is the last one I have to drink for the rest of my life. I am gagging and choking it down. This is such a monumental moment for me
It would be a fascinating political experiment with all of the negative externalities felt by NYCers that elected him so I would watch with great interest.
The main impediment to this is that people would hate, hate, hate, hate it, and it would be discrediting to Mamdani's political project. Actually a pretty important impediment! But if he's ideologically committed enough, he might do it anyway.

The WSJ missed the forest for the trees. The issue with speakerphones is systemic. Apple stopped offering direct headphone hookups on their phone. A lot of people for a variety of reasons don't want to use Bluetooths. Apple should be called to account but, hey, it wouldn't be the…
