@jbarro Why is that weird? We don’t share a border with an Asian country or region. Consequently Asian migration to the US is generally more limited and orderly (not a value judgment).
@jbarro The left has been like this for a long time. I remember being at an anti-Iraq war protest in SF. The afternoon soon devolved into a “Free Mumia Abu-Jamal” rally. You wouldn’t see this at a rally for a right wing cause.
@TPCarney I’d imagine the reason why there’s a baby bust is not because potential parents think they’re “bad”. Rather children have become unaffordable. You want more babies? Start by financially supporting parents, child care and education like a normal, first world country.
New essay, in which I see the philosophy behind NFTs as giving rise to a dystopia I call the Tinkerbell Griftopia.

@juvelibertarian@KaylaChowShow Well that’s interesting. I didn’t know that. Still, I think the original idea of “passing on” to an afterlife is not what many or maybe most people mean who use passed away. What do you think?
@o_radar@KaylaChowShow Fair enough. I don’t want to be insensitive. But I assume the genesis of it is, as you say, softening the blow which. That, to my mind, is avoiding reality.
