The perfect chaser for this shot I received last week from a law professor who called me a "landlord" for daring to object to the theft of two books & nearly two decades of my life's work to make Dario Amodei & Sam Altman a tiny bit richer, so they can buy what's left of democracy & destroy Earth.

The Heritage Foundation is infamous for organizing Project 2025.

As I was investigating Heritage, I found that it promotes a network of Christian nationalist schools to parents. That network was founded by Doug Wilson, who is well-known for his extreme views.

Near WW2's end, when the writing was on the wall, all the European fascist collaborators claimed "we were always in the Resistance...secretly, of course."

By that clock, Joe Rogan's defection from MAGA puts us in ~March 1945.

That means: have your Adult Beverages ready, it's nearly Bunker Time!
I almost spat out my soda laughing at this. Like rats deserting the sinking MAGA ship.

"Trump didn’t just win elections. He changed what it means to be conservative for an entire generation. He made it okay—cool, even—to say things that used to be unsayable, to reject expertise, to trust podcasters over professors, to make politics more about the culture war...🛢

I have been summoned by the offshore finance Bat Signal!

You say POTUS is squirreling away his illegal spoils from pillaging Venezuela in a Qatar account?

Perfect time for an Offshore Fun Fact o' the Day:

The biggest users of "tax havens" come from countries that don't impose tax on individuals.
Everything Trump uses the US Military for is unconscionable.

On the day Biden left office, inflation was down to 2.9%, gas was $3.12 a gallon, and diesel was $3.63.

Now inflation is 3.4%, gas $4.44 and diesel is $6.40 because of tariffs and the Iran war.

Morality has always been limited to one’s tribe.

The task of culture in the early era of societies encompassing millions of people has been to broaden our morality to include others.

The task of culture in our era is to broaden morality to include all humans and living things.

We are failing
Nick Beckstead, noted longtermist and "effective altruist,” just comes out and says it:

"But it now seems more plausible to me that saving a life in a rich country is substantially more important than saving a life in a poor country, other things being equal."

Yes, all the Trump appointees at the Fed voted to raise rates just because they want to make Trump look bad. I'm sure that's the case.

This would be disastrous.

What analysis did the authors make versus? What analysis did I just ask an AI agent to make?

What was the actual thinking and intent of the authors must always matter.
This is the future of scientific papers.

Instead of a PDF, the paper is an AI agent that you can talk to, ask questions, run analyses.

No more digging through supplements - just ask the paper directly: "what p-value cutoff was used in Fig 3B? Re-run at 0.01."
