"If the history you’re reading makes you feel exclusively proud and happy, you’re not reading history. You’re reading propaganda." Should be: "Be careful to not let national pride get in the way of facts" Right wing response: "Be careful to not let facts get in the way of national pride"

It is also that share buybacks do more to increase share prices than paying dividends would. When the executives are paid in shares with their bonus tied to share price, share price is all that matters.

DS3 is unsurprising because that game is great and I love co-op. Burnout is interesting because that represents getting 100% in the game multiple times. Stellaris is interesting because I am amazed at how many hours have been spent in a game that I didn't really enjoy.

To be fair if he had his way there would be no FAA to tell the flights to go around the wreckage. So the only flights that would have been delayed would be the handful that crashed after being hit by the chunks of his failed ship.

Unfortunately the judge determined that he was too rich and too white to face any consequences of his crimes. So the left is pissed off because they believe that you should face consequences even if you are rich and white and the right is pissed of that a rich white guy can even be found guilty.

It's so fitting that Donald Trump's inauguration will be held in the Capitol Rotunda, the very place four years ago where his pack of lawless loons ransacked, looted, and smeared their excrement. What an apt metaphor for what the incoming administration plans to do to America.

There is no longer an ability to sell to everyone. The right wing will not buy any newspaper that includes the truth and the left demand it from newspapers. By telling stories that occasionally include truth to try to please everybody they will please nobody.

If I lived in the US I would be more worried about Facebook and Twitter directly being connected to Trump and his vindictive nature. There might be prison sentences for hurting his fragile ego. China spying is only an issue if you are going against the ccp.

Increasing racism in the "miltary" is critical to the republicans. It means that if they need to run a coup it is easier to get the military on side. So they are very willing to decrease the military capabilities for this end.

Remember that he is the republican pick. Racism and a history of sexual assault are the reason he gets the job. That is why they are willing to overlook his alcoholism.

I think that it is also critical for books in a series to feel satisfying to read without the sequel. Some series feel like they need all books to be a complete story, while others are great even if finish early. Old Man's War is a good example because you can stop at the end of any book.

Is the economy the production and consumption of goods and services and the supply of money, or is it just how much yacht money the rich have? The stock market doing well does not mean that the economy is healthy, it just means that there is a lot of money at the top.

Good novels sell themselves. At a convention, you gave a copy of Old Mans War to a friend of mine who had never heard of you. She then read a tonne of your books and recommended The Androids Dream to me and now I get all your books. I am not the only person she has converted to your work.
