One would think "freedom" as a political ideology would sell itself rather easily...... The great American story, to be continued.....

[Mike Morris @abaddon1215]

@ManlinessNorms Bruh, science diagnosis human responses to real life as disorder to be treated--

Gotta say, sh*t like this doesn't help when most of the free world are diagnosed: wall of enmity between anyone and the so-called good life.

But we do need to know what the good life is....

Don't f*cking quit, bro. Life can go from 0 to 100 really quick.

The Nazi Tattoo is a subthread. Not that its right, wrong, or what.

But that its a subthread.

Act fukkin accordingly.

It might also be that in squashing dissident voices in congress, they've made the opposition less restrained; remember the Obama-era Tea Party, or 1/6.

Massey ain't quit.
Nancy Mace might go dark, implying she was in it for something other than principle.
MTG ain't quit.

It might just be, that the concept of personal freedom is as varied as the idea of a personal God, that freedom in whatever form should be divisive, is my point.

And some sh*t the government penalizes, forbids, or prosecutes, should merely be suggestions, guidelines, not crimes.

@ronsterd89 I like a jazzed-up rice, like a rice with cheese and/or a "cream of" soup in it, when I'm having a nice sit-down fried chicken dinner. Otherwise, I'm all about the main course. Great question, btw.

The name is "Senator Graham". Get it right in your comments, pls; its how one addresses one in the US Senate.

Funny how debt is forgivable when it’s tied to yachts, hedge funds, or billionaires’ failed businesses. Tax breaks, subsidies, bailouts, and legal protections appear overnight. But when it’s tied to education, healthcare, or survival, it becomes a character flaw.

@thereal_SnS @EdGallrein Why explain it? Sometimes people follow just to get the updates in their feed. I follow dozens of political zealots, religious zealots, politicians I despise.

That said, "I'm writing an article." lol. I put that on my following list ahead of time, should you come callin on mine.

New newsletter: THE 6 MEGATRENDS OF 2026

I took my favorite charts, essay passages, science and econ papers, and posts of the last few months and bucketed them into six categories.

ECONOMICS: The Peter Pan Economy
Young people are grappling with a declining hiring rate, lower employment levels, higher housing costs (Graph 1 below), cities that are unalienable to families, a Boomer Bottleneck in the labor force, and overwhelming support for older Americans over younger Americans at the federal level and throughout the economy

HEALTH: The Making of a Do-it-All Drug
In the last few months, randomized studies have shown GLP-1s can reduce psoriasis severity by up to 80%, treat addiction disorders, ameliorate several kinds of mental distress (Graph 2 below), and melt fatty liver disease. And new and better GLP-1 drugs are waiting in the wings.

AI: Apocalypse Nope
AI discourse is dominated by people predicting “the end of” things: growth, jobs, the human race. But the best way to evaluate AI *at this moment* is to analyze it as the opposite of an apocalypse, and more like a normal business cycle with headwinds, tailwinds, and urgent questions about the durability of consumer demand and the elasticity of compute supply.

POLITICS: The Paradox of Global Violence
I haven’t seen many people point out that America is becoming historically peaceful (Graph 3 below) at the same time that many indicators of global violence are rising—just as a new technological revolution, drones, threaten to reshape the future of war.

MEDIA: Quantity Is Eating Quality
The number of e-books and science papers has exploded since the release of ChatGPT. AI might lead to a quality boom in art in the coming decades. But for now, “more” is beating “better.”

CULTURE: The Anti-Social Century
Life is “time spent.” (Graph 4 below) And the last few decades have seen a devolution of time spent with other people—partners, children, coworkers, and friends—as Americans couple less, have fewer children, work alone, and spend less time with people outside their home.
