From the description:

"One of the major stumbling blocks for new lefties is getting stuck in the "why can't we just have social democracy?" phase. On the surface, the Nordic Model looks pretty good - social safety nets, great public services, better workers' rights...so what's the problem? Let's talk about social democracy's critical failure, and why socialism is the better option."

Bekah Mercer’s tech portfolio now includes disgraced and defunct Cambridge Analytica and Parler in need of a resuscitation order. Isn’t it weird that these articles don’t mention the Mercers as the main investor? The coverage favors attributing the influencers that act as avatars for their donors. Hmm. https://www.theverge.com/2023/1/10/23549198/parler-parlement-technologies-layoffs-gettr-george-farmer-candace-owens

One of the best videos I’ve come across in a long time: guy takes a scanning electron microscope and animates a needle on an LP and then does close-ups of other media. Incredible. https://youtu.be/GuCdsyCWmt8

Having stumbled yet again trying to say the acronym "LGBT" today, I would like to renew my campaign to replace "LGBTQIA*" with "BIG TEQUILA". It encompasses all letters currently in play, gives intergendered people a free bonus appearance, and reserves the letter "E" for some exciting new gender or sexual orientation which is yet to be devised.

BIG TEQUILA. Easy to remember, easy to say, easy to enjoy. Join me in the fight for BIG TEQUILA!

Today's #DogShirtDaily is out, wherein I raise my voice in objection to California's ability to have dangerous torrential rains and drought at the same time: https://www.dogshirtdaily.com/p/a-short-and-sweet-dog-shirt-daily?sd=pf

Apparently #RStudio now partners with #Palantir and will be integrating their platform. So does anyone know what I should recommend as an alternative #R IDE??? #RStats

Happy 10th birthday to the strip that became the last decade's defining meme.

1/n. Winter floods temporarily fill the stunning outer & inner #moats of Earith Bulwark, Cambs. Designed to be permanently water-filled, the moats have gradually silted up but almost every winter the 17thC landscape is briefly restored.

Built in about 1643, it was one of the most elaborate #CivilWar #forts, with its square inner enclosure, corner bastions, perimeter defences & outworks.

NB There's no public access, alas.
