And that's all stuff he did in less than 13 months. At this point we probably would be better off building a small mountain range of gilded pyramids in Florida in exchange for him not doing anything else.

It would be a lot cheaper and more socially healthy to build Trump a gilded pyramid a mile high and a mile on each side at public expense than to do this war, or any of more than a dozen other different public policies he's actually done.

Someone really needs to make a horror movie where all the people on GLP-1s start turning into were-gila monsters or giant gila monsters or something. It's just too obvious and too fun a premise for someone to not do it.

I mean, yes the Christian right is a very real movement and a civilizational threat, but I think it’s a huge disservice to say that’s all Christianity is that, especially considering like, the historic involvement of Christians in labor and social justice movements

Again, not saying I think Talarico is like a radical leftist by any means, but I’ve heard him described by people as β€œa moderateβ€œ or β€œRepublican Lite” by some liberals and I think a lot of it boils down to Christianity in America being inherently right wing coded.

I’m agnostic, but that’s a bummer

It's abundantly clear that Trump & team had no plan for what to do if the Iranians didn't immediately surrender. And I'm sure they were told by the professionals that an immediate surrender was highly unlikely. So now they're floating random low-probability options while lying their asses off.

I'm not an anarchist and I don't actually know much of anything about Schwartz's ideological leanings in that space. I just read his woodworking stuff.

The Chris Schwartz books are available on Lost Art Press's website as free ebooks because Schwartz is not a fan of copyright. The print editions are crazy well printed books though. Well worth the asking price.

So anyway that's why when I'm recommending a book by an anarchist it's usually Against The Grain by James C. Scott or something on woodworking by Christopher Schwartz depending on taste (The Anarchist's Tool Chest, The Anarchist's Work Bench, or Ingenious Mechanicks are good ones to check out).

I loathe reading something and finding out that some fact I learned from the book was a deliberate misrepresentation.

I never recommend people who I feel like deliberately misrepresent the science and facts on something to try to make a point. And Graeber definition does that sometimes, and he does it extremely well so it's easy to miss. But I'm just really not comfortable with anybody doing that.

This thread was inspired by the If Books Could Kill episode on Bullshit Jobs. I haven't read that one, but their observations on it sound a lot like mine on other stuff, except honestly they're probably more tolerant of it than I'd be. Probably because of how much much worse shit they have to read.

Like I tend to like his conclusions but think his arguments and his evidence are not sound more often than I'm comfortable with. And just generally I'm not thrilled with that, especially if it's deliberate. But if it brings people in it's not the worst thing in the world.

But I really haven't seen anything that makes me think he deserves the reputation he has as a deep thinking intellectual, and his books that I have read are designed to appear a lot more rigorous than they are.

I feel like David Graeber deserves his reputation for being a good polemescist, and not a polemescist in a bad way. I tend to agree with him on a ton of things and be sympathetic on a lot more.

I don't know that anyone thinks Omaha is big enough to support two furniture stores you could fit a bunch of professional sports stadiums inside of, even if the styles and vibes are radically different.

Those sound excellent. I've never actually been to an IKEA. There isn't one here, largely because one of their competitors Nebraska Furniture Mart originated here.

I guess it's the same way with chicken dips, though I eat them super rarely so maybe if I ate them more I'd eat ranch some. The fact it might be years since I had a chicken dip reminds me I really need to get out more.
