My "morning" coffee is better than yours (_"morning"_ because it's 12.30 -- shitty sun too lazy to get over horizon) #nature #villagelife #mountains #sunrise #coffeechain #plebs #coffee

This is pretty alright. Yes, Stiglitz not exactly an impressive economist and this reeks of lefty envy politics etc, but this Georgist idea isn't crap. Also... it's not *land* going up, dufus. It's the MONEY GOING DOWN #nostr #philosophizing #econstr

pretty sick in perspective. Enjoy the ride, plebs. And to those who spent it on fucking toilet paper and netflix subscription, I have nothing but pity for yah

WE DO ALL OF THESE THINGS

Um, yeah. So, apparently someone made a song about you, @Lyn Alden I guess flattery comes in all forms...?

THESE are the sorts of reflections that America's left/progressives need right now. "I have to say that I now doubt the practical effectiveness of some of the policies I embraced in previous years. Others still seem like good ideas, but I’ve been dismayed at their botched implementation where they were tried." -- Noah Smith "In 2012 or 2019, progressivism felt like it had forward momentum; now it feels adrift." Noah concludes that the typical progressive causes are "dead in the water" or stuck amid an America public that no longer cherishes them. He's happy to wait that out, hoping (in vain?) for a change next decade or so. The other take-away imperative there would be to ask the question: Maybe--just maybe--I got these goals, values, ends, and beliefs _wrong_? Pssst @The Progressive Bitcoiner @Trey Walsh @Margot Paez / jyn urso etc

What remains of the progressive project?

Feeling adrift in the 2020s.

Very ironic and fitting, then, that this election was decided -- in no small part -- by dudes on bro podcasts. The symmetry is BEAUTIFUL #politicstr #election2024 #NYT

Opinion | Voters to Elites: Do You See Me Now? (Published 2024)

Donald Trump is a monstrous narcissist, but there’s something off about an educated class that looks in the mirror of society and sees only itself.
