@Stamets I thought naming the lead engineer after the foremost authority on mushrooms showed a remarkable amount of commitment to the utterly bonkers tech. There’s a ‘anything can happen day” quality to the show that really helped the 60 year old franchise.

@Stamets Huh. I didn’t catch that, probably because I spent most of the first season gobsmacked by what they were doing. Had to pause for a second to confirm if you were actually Paul as I kinda used to know him when I worked at his publisher.

This AP story demonstrates how eager some political reporters are to say Trump’s crimes don’t matter. It says the electorate is divided. It says “about half” approve of the indictments. It quotes three of the people polled: all Republicans.

In fact, only a dwindling minority are still able to defend Trump. If you skip the prose and look at the ACTUAL POLL RESULTS, you learn that only 15% of those polled said Trump did “nothing wrong” in Georgia and 21% at the Capital.

@JamesGleick A comment I made elsewhere maybe bears repeating: This would be a very different world if journalists took their profession as seriously as they expect us to.

@rdviii @jdavidnet @billmason @startrek My favorite example of that is the shift between Alien and Aliens. Alien, which came out before Reagan was elected, was a single alien hunting everyday people while (after) Aliens was a squad of ubermenchen hunting a horde of aliens.
