I've been here since the "olden days" of tumblr; this has become my default place for rants, musings, observations, dad jokes, pretty pictures (mine and others) and re-blogging lots of stuff I like. Oh, and there's a podcast and a twitch stream I have something to do with; ask if you want to know.
Don't wanna be here? Send us removal request.

As I've mentioned before, asbestos was once touted as the "miracle mineral," even when the corporations supplying it knew it wasn't such a miracle for the workers exposed to it.

Asbestos pads for protecting dining tables sounded like a great idea at the time…

We've Made Changing Your Mind Look Like a Flaw Instead of a Virtue
The internet has taught people to archive your opinions and weaponize your growth. If you evolve, you're a flip-flopper. If you admit uncertainty, you're weak. If you take time to rethink, you're stalling.
So people fake certainty to avoid punishment.
Intellectual honesty, though, requires change. If your views haven't changed in ten years, that says less about your clarity than it says about your lack of reflection.

What even is this?

"Hey, these ads you reported? Totally okay, we'll keep running them. Oh, that post you made where you had a screenshot of the ads we said were okay? Nope, that's sexually explicit and we're not gonna let you post them."
Sure, Tumblr. That makes sense.

The biggest change over the last four decades — the change lurking behind the insecurities and resentments of the working class — has nothing to do with wokeism or any other Republican bogeymen. It has directly to do with a huge shift in the distribution of income and wealth. Know the truth.
