It's The Guardian, it's an opinion piece, and again, it's The Guardian, so I'm aware this isn't journalism on 3 levels. But still bad: Do you boast about your fitness? Watch out – you’ll unavoidably become rightwing
By that standard, based on her photo, she's clearly not rightwing.

Re: States-ism
I want fewer voters, not more. Like maybe no votes for employees of any level of government. Or require that voters had to be born in the lower 48 and all parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents were US citizens (tough luck for you, McCain and George Romney!).

Re: Guns and Whatnot.
The government would never make up allegations against a political enemy. They'd never do something like claim someone had hired a hitman to kill 6 people to smear them in a pending case and then never bring those charges.

Re: Twitter!
TIL that straight male friends can never be roommates. Wasn’t “he’s my roommate” the tradition way to conceal a homosexual relationship? This is uncle Bert’s ‘friend’ Ernie. It's true though. Heterosexual guys use to be able to form deep friendships that isn't really possible anymore. They can't? I...

Re: Masculinity, so fragile
Much of the red pill/pua stuff snaps into focus when one replaces "women" with "women with lots of cluster B personality traits." When the guys engage in behavior specifically designed to attract those women, what a surprise, every woman they deal with is a borderline or narcissist. I wonder what th...

Re: cars and how they get that way
It's not just profit margin, it's volume. Porsche's Cayenne has always been the highest selling vehicle they make, from the minute they started selling them. SUVs are what lots of people want to buy. That's proof we live in a horrible simulation: people are going to Porsche dealerships and buying a...

Re: Worthwhile intertubez finds
The science journal Nature publishes one sci-fi story a week. A lot of them are boring, notable only for their high-art pretensions. But this one is good: https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-018-06698-2 OK, maybe I only like it because it appeals to my libertarian sympathies via a scenario of "I...

Re: Worthwhile intertubez finds
I'll read the piece later, but I wonder what the author's opinion was of the people who didn't show politeness and civility to Obama when he was president.But the idea that politeness and civility is owed to anyone in a position of power is one of the great gotchas of liberal thought.

You know the profit margins in SUVs are large when Ferrari, Bentley, Maserati, and Lamborghini are all jumping on board.

Gah. I have an ear worm and I don't even know the song. It was someone trying very hard (and mostly succeeding) to sound like the Jayhawks, and one of the repeated lines was "everything's gonna be alright."

Re: Light laffs
The memes flooding forth using the "believe in something" ad language have really been making my week. My favorites so far have been the plane heading towards the twin towers, the Killdozer, and the Heaven's Gate aftermath.
