Means testing is cruel, but even if you don't care about the cruelty (which you should, fix your fucking heart), it's more expensive than the losses
Fun fact: During the Clinton administration, welfare recipients had to file paperwork proving they applied for a certain amount of new jobs every month. Know what happened if you lived in a village with few job openings and no way to travel? Your kids suffered malnutrition. Ask me how I know.

I'm thrilled to announce the first draft of the Mistborn screenplay is DONE! Just in time to celebrate the book's original publication, twenty years ago this month. Do please remember that this is just an early step in a very long process, but I'm terribly excited by how it turned out!
One of my favorite things about road trips is that it's the one place my wife and I have time to listen to @worldsbeyondnumber.bsky.social. We just finished episode 42, so we're like a year+ behind but I'm consistently impressed at how good every single element of this show is. No spoilers please!

Change of plans. Fried will return and start tomorrow rather than make another rehab start. He's only gonna throw 60 pitches or so, but the alternative is a bullpen game, and 60 pitches of Fried are better than zero. This is the first time Cole and Fried are on the active roster together.

Decided to try to start recording a new song this week, mashing up a modern hymn with a different church song and... the first attempt is more than 10 minutes long. So maybe I'll finish that before I turn... 60?

America is in the midst of a shoplifting crisis the level of social collapse. Gavin Newsom thinks so; Ron DeSantis thinks so; House D+Rs think so. So i went to the world's most advanced anti-shoplifting lab to get the hard science, and found...the anatomy of a crime panic. slate.com/life/2026/07...
