I saw a FB post several years back that boiled down to, "When we call Trump supporters stupid, trust us when we say that's the most charitable option. The other things we could call you are far worse."

Your greatest asset as a writer?
✨ Curiosity. ✨
No matter what you write, never lose your curiosity. Read everything you can. Find topics completely unrelated to your day-to-day interests. Study. Poke around. Research. Let yourself fall down the proverbial rabbit hole.

Also, Maryland: why am I being bombarded with TWO right-wing Senate ads, one from Hogan and one from some Trumper, while I'm trying to watch my Orioles? Are both Senate seats there up?

If it seems like I've been around less of late, it's because I have. I'm cutting way back on my political content consumption in an effort to protect my mental health. Rage with no outlet is not good for me.

Peggy Stuart #FirstWave @PeggyStuartWhy support a Democrat for a seat in Utah? Reasons:10:54 AM - May 02, 2024
1) It forces the GOP to spend money to defend the seat
2) The candidate might win!
I know this candidate personally. He has been involved in Utah politics for a long time and is well-liked.
Please echo and/or donate, or support any way you can.

I remain convinced that, in a lot of ways, social media is the worst thing to happen to #NASCAR . So much complaining, it's gotten to the point where avoiding the internet is the only way I can enjoy the sport anymore.

Overheard on a commercial: "The best of nature, with the best of science!"
Now, I'm no expert, but... isn't nature also science?
(I get what they likely meant, just found the wording a bit odd.)

I'm tired of this narrative of higher education as liberal indoctrination factory.
Students aren't learning about taxing the rich in biology lab. They're not being fed anti-war talking points in their engineering classes.

I don't anymore, but as a teenager, comic books were the only reading I could do for entertainment; anything else was too much like school (and I hated almost every book school made me read).
I was a *huge* X-Men fan back then.
