Yeah this is a great writeup. First time I noticed it. I'd follow your blog on RSS for sure.

I believe administrations like FDR or JFK would’ve tolerated none of this shit. Biden looked weak as hell. I like the guy and I support the democrats but you can’t take the high road indefinitely. I take your point though and I’m not happy about it either. But I would’ve preferred a bad boy Democrat administration over whatever the fuck this is…

You’re right of course. On the other hand this policy of strictly following established laws and precedents is in part what got us into this mess. Democrats could’ve been ruthless but they were meek. And now they have become almost entirely sidelined.

I agree. E-mail is the original federated service. And 50 years later e-mail spam remains a big problem. I hope Fedi projects can get spam mitigations on-par with email before spammers start getting serious about this place.

Beer-drinking European living in 'Murica here. For certain styles, the US has fantastic beers available. In particular IPAs (which don't always have to be mega hoppy!), pale ales, pilsners, amber ales, and stouts. Plenty of great choices to be found here, if you discover the right breweries. That's key, because there are a lot breweries with imo questionable taste.

What's harder to find are good beers of other styles, such as Belgian or German beers. US breweries try, sometimes, but they aren't succeeding.
