@mattyglesias Was secretly hoping for Pope Pizzaballa during the last conclave. He’d have been the first pope to never be identified by his chosen papal name.

“Cardinal Pizzaballa” as the name of a high-ranking Italian cleric smacks of lazy writing.

A quite brilliant essay on AI, the law, and the future of the republic.
An upshot: If the US govt can go to any company, demand any contract language, and reserve the right to destroy your company if you have qualms, there is no such thing as private property rights in America.

Abundance/YIMBY critics keep accusing us of being in the pocket of developers or big tech or a front to build data centers.
This critique rests on the belief that no one could sincerely think that regulatory reform is important enough to devote a political project to.

@mattyglesias Amusingly, Allred himself has been a strong electoral performer, and has been described as such.

A statement from the family of Alex Pretti, obtained by CNN:
"We are heartbroken but also very angry.
Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the hero term lightly. However his last thought and act was to protect a woman.
The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He has his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down all while being pepper sprayed.
Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you."

My goal in becoming a lawyer is now to help prosecute this person for his criminal actions in this administration. And spoiler alert, I tend to do what I say I’m going to do.

A domestic terrorist tried to assassinate federal law enforcement and this is your response? You and the state’s entire Democrat leadership team have been flaming the flames of insurrection for the singular purpose of stopping the deportation of illegals who invaded the country.

it is remarkable how as housing becomes a hot button national issue the American right has totally refused to center zoning laws. you would think “government is banning construction of new housing” would be a layup for them but they’d really rather talk about anything else!

Housing is the foundation of the American Dream, and it’s been destroyed by bad policy and broken leadership. One of the top real estate agents in California broke down the policies driving the crisis, says nothing changes if they aren't reversed: - Higher Taxes pushing

This is good — even if it slanders the em-dash. AI's tendency to statistically smooth out the rough edges produces extremely mid prose. nytimes.com/2025/12/03/mag…

@ArmandDoma What’s crazy is that these studios have all seen how much appeal Stranger Things threw away by doing this, and yet have decided to replicate it anyways.

Idea for @nikitabier you should put a flag for where a person is actually tweeting from in their handle, not just on their profile. People don’t check profiles before they retweet, if you had it in the handle it would stop a lot of slop from getting traction

@ArmandDoma The minor league baseball in my college town had $1 beer night to raise demand for tickets. I’ll give you one guess as to which games my friends went to.
It’s not even an abstract discussion, we have real examples of this dynamic!
English
like maybe Tim Wu is right and capping beer prices won’t raise ticket prices—but the arguments he’s raising “they already charge the maximum price they can for tickets” without accounting for how the pricing of tickets and concessions interacts are…jarring

I think the fact that you were at extremely senior levels of government despite not understanding Econ 102 things like “stadium owners do not price things like tickets and concessions independently” is why you should be kept far away from government policy, actually
