Sitting Down

Four-day workweek, and I’m kind of shutting things down for the weekend.

I’ve been trying to tune out some of the news.

Still following a lot of what’s been put out on TheFP.

First notable one was this about the DSA folks who don’t want to condemn the shooting in DC. I shared the story on Facebook, quipping something about this being horseshoe theory in action, but I’m not sure that even fits.

So what do I do? I’m tempted to retreat into the hedge Homer Simpson mem-style. But, more likely, I’ll add DSA-aligned candidates to the never-support list.

Also really appreciated Kat Rosenfield’s piece here. This is actually the sort of thing I was worried about when I was in college, and this sort of thing was just starting to seep into academia.

SMDH.

“I told you so” is rarely helpful, and even more rarely appreciated.

I also really appreciated this from Reason. The hosts’ reaction reminds me of their

Reminded of their interview about Iran. This stuff really makes my brain hurt; Is there a Murray Rothbard quote that kinda-sorta applies?

Day off tomorrow, then the three-day-per-week exercise bit starts. Ugh. But I am kind of seeing benefits.

More tomorrow, maybe.
