It mentions that the right wants to limit immigration in response, but is that a non sequitor? Like the article doesn’t say anything about the crime being done by immigrants or their descendants. Like is that true? Who knows, the article doesn’t address it.
What’s all this I hear about them lacking skills, is it true? Did they not have computer class in school, or mess around with computers when they were kids, installing games and shit? Making their own websites on geocities or whatever?
But on npr this morning they said wage growth has outpaced inflation
When I retire I want to hike and camp, cook really nice meals, grow a garden, and make hot rods.
No. In the US at least, wages are up for blue collar work, and that’s where the economy was most vulnerable. Inflation has been bad but it’s coming back under control and wages can outpace it in the next couple years, median wage growth already has (yes I have a hard time believing this too, but that’s the numbers).
The last financial crisis had a flagrant cause in default-prone loans. There isn’t such a problem right now.
The largest crisis we are running into is a crisis of propaganda, where people are being told “everything is terrible” when in fact the numbers show that everything is pretty great… except for white collar tech workers (me!).
I think the tech market will rebound the second that the fed lowers rates again, because tech is fundamentally capital intensive and speculative. So you need cheap money to fuel tech. Video games deflated/corrected a bit but that’s fine, those people can work on other things.
Is this because they waited too long, or because the answer is something other than anti-immigrant sentiment?
For example, there’s this statistic that almost everyone dies shortly after having CPR performed on them. Paradoxically, that doesn’t mean CPR is bad: it absolutely saves lives. It’s just that they do it too late on a lot of people (and also perform it on a bunch of people who are going to die no matter what but that’s not the point of this anecdote).
Why is the right becoming more popular? What changed?

I’m still enjoying civ5 without any DLC
Good. Kids don’t need cell phones, and they really are a huge distraction.
Sure does!
Glyphosate is an herbicide, not a pesticide.
BT plants would have greatly reduced the need for pesticides, but we somehow decided gmos were bad
Thanks for making me feel good
Is that instrument cluster from a jeep zj?
I don’t have kids but I’d kind of like to have adult kids when I’m old. So maybe I can adopt a college age person when I’m like 50 or something
You mean the people who are making a sequel?
Also my fav OP :)
Rcpp is probably the best thing to ever exist.
I reject tidyverse though
I have a setting and characters but no story. And I have stuff that could be part of a story, but I don’t know how to put it together. Like an arranged marriage, and jealousy between someone born to power and someone who fought to earn it. I just don’t know how to make a story that fits all of them in there.
