Glorious
You can now get Dell’s glorious 8K monitor for just a smidge over $3,000 if you apply the coupon code for 17% off.
It’s so tempting. I don’t need it but goddamn do I want it.
Better Focus
I agree with his larger point. Ambitious technocratic projects require statecraft and must be tied to nation building and geopolitical ambitions. This is opposite of most environmental politics, which actually mistrusts statecraft and attempts to shortcircuit with science.

Yes. And the left is giving up a lot by demonizing nationalism, effectively making most environmental projects impossible.
Look, I too like the kumbaya vision of a global and borderless world, where we all hold multi-hued hands on a verdant hillside and shit. But that’s not the world we have today or that we’ll have anytime soon. In the real world where we currently live, battling against corporations and seizing control of capitalism and fighting climate change all must be done at the national level.
And guess what? It requires a national purpose and unity…which is also called nationalism. There is no other countervailing force at the moment that will come close or has a chance of developing anytime soon. I get it, the kumbaya on a hillside dream is much more appealing, but that’ll get us right where neoliberal fluid capital wants us: precisely nowhere. Because it is, as mentioned, a dream.
By equating nationalism with racism and with it being evil and bad in all cases, the left is doing a huge disservice to history and to the future, and pretty much killing any possibility of fighting climate change. Good job.
Ship Flip
One of the reasons I decided to get stronger again is because I read a story about a ship that had a hull breach of some type, started to capsize stern down, and then the only people who survived were those with enough upper body strength to climb up far enough to be able to get out.
I don’t want to be the one to die because I couldn’t do a pull-up or two.
That’s not the only reason. The main one is just general health. But the above story certainly catalyzed it for me.
Offense Culture
Elizabeth Holmes
– lied to investors
– lied to regulators
– lied to the public
– lied to her employees.You are criticizing her for
– having a deep voice as a woman.
I see you.
Signed,
A woman with a deep voice

But her natural voice was not deep. That’s the whole point. Not sure in the race to get offended how the person missed that. It was a put-on, part of her flimflam, her Steve Jobs cosplaying. It’s all related.
Saying she was faking her voice is not criticizing women with a deep voice. That’s an idiotic take. It shows that everything about her was an obvious deceit that people still fell for.
But sure, let’s get offended. Why not?
