Show me any decision of consequence in life that doesn’t have a downside. There are no perfect choices, just less bad ones. And in the 2024 US election there’s one choice that’s a lot worse than the other.
But I still need a host to know where to retrieve the comment from. A GUID on its own doesn’t help if my instance hasn’t seen that comment. So if there’s a host already on the comment id, why bother with an ugly long GUID?
This is a tough piece, one that I share without fully endorsing. It lays out the problems that women experience with some men, like that men are not getting college degrees at the same rate as women or the lack of emotional modelling provided to boys and young men:...
A Quinnipiac University poll asked U.S. registered voters to select one of four options to blame for the divisions in the country. Overall, 35 percent blamed social media, 32 percent blamed political leaders, 28 percent blamed cable news channels and only 1 percent blamed other countries.

“Can’t get out of bed and tired all the time” are hallmarks of depression. I’m not saying you’re depressed, don’t let someone on the internet diagnose you. But a therapist can really help you understand what’s going on. Meds can be a life changer in a lot of situations.
You should know that depression usually doesn’t feel like “super sadness” and crying all the time. It’s more of a numbness, a disconnection from life. Things don’t make depressed people happy, everything is just turned down.
That seems like the reverse. The high rate environment made startups stingy which (along with that one newsletter saying SVB ran out of money) caused the run that killed SVB.
Two of my coworkers frequently mention shows like “Encounters” or “Ancient apocalypse” or whatever.

UBI for people who are currently unhoused. This is proven to increase the economic prosperity of the entire region, leads to better outcomes than shelters, and is cheaper than current homelessness support systems.
Buy medical debt. You can clear someone’s $150,000 debt for like $200.
That’s why it’s a stepping stone to actual UBI. The U means you can’t game it. Give billionaires $10,000/yr too. Then tax the shit out of carbon to pay for it.
