We all know the struggle of beloved services slowly going downhill. What’s one service, tool, or website you’ve been using for years that’s still great and hasn’t turned to crap?

i've got some bad news

@Pinboard Watching male competitors in women's sports is a lot like the Biden debate thing. Everyone can see with their own eyes what's going on, but then there's an ideological post-processing step where everyone must decide whether their beliefs allow them to see it.

So what is the point here? That people shouldn't care about their own ideologies? People shouldn't allow the things they believe in to shape how they feel about something?

Makes no fucking sense. I guess we're all supposed to always just go with the first thing we think about everything every time, and never let critical thinking get in the way.
