Always shocked to see how much better Amsterdam treats bicycles than human beings, knowing that bicycles contribute to environmental degradation (non recyclable) and its production worldwide has some of the lowest labor standards.
But yes apart from that the city is looking nice
I think I will be joined by many when I say: time to be tough on bicycles

Tyler Cowen investigated here why Americans are so loud. Not very convinced by any of the hypotheses
marginalrevolution.com/marginalrevolu…
So here is my suggestion
Typically an American in a job interview does mot just want to show he is qualified. He wants to show he knows how to do a job interview. Flawlessly, without noise, without hesitation, etc

Gives a good visial sense of how Eurasian trade has become the dominant axis in the global evonomy, and how marginal transatlantic trade is becoming by comparison

Fascinating visuals. You can see the global trends but also smaller things like the importance of Portugal-Angola trade. Or the huge trade deficit India has versus China

Let’s briefly review the US policy in Syria, which Trump now wants to abandon. 1. Even though Assad is the obvious cause of the civil war, the US decided early on that he had to stay, as a barrier to that old bogeyman, the Islamic radical
2. The FSA and other opposition forces, who wanted to overthrow Assad and almost succeeded, composed of the vital forces of a sophisticated Syrian society, were abandoned to their luck. Obama called them a motley group of doctors, students and shopkeepers
3. Instead the US allied itself with a terrorist group, the PKK. It alienated its only ally in the region, Turkey, and moved its forces to a narrow band of territory in the north. It gave the cire of Syria in a platter to Russia and Iran. The Assad question was thus solved

are there people here on twitter that would argue woodstock 69>woodstock 99? because im going to start watching performances from 99 for the 20th anniversary and i just dont see myself being convinced 99 wasnt better
the guy from lit just asked the crowd if they had his new cd and when a bunch screamed he said that was badass and started playing miserable. its a level of poetry got at the original woodstock.

"you make me cum

you make me complete

you make me completely miserable"
the physicality of Lits live act really has to be seen to be believed. the frontman is like if mick jagger ruled instead of was mick jagger

1/ State of the Midterms ---- Mere hours to go before what would become one of the most participated and most consequential midterms ever. Here are my observations. There aren’t that many MSM polls.
2/ Whatever polls they have, half or so are for lopsided blue ones like NY sen., CT sen or CA sen where 2 no R is running. The MSM rhetoric also is beginning to hedge such as thedailybeast.com/democrats-pond…

And

3/ MSM has been trying to influence the election more blatantly than ever. They say Ds have enthusiasm edge. The voters are getting smarter though. Early voting data refutes MSM’s claims. They then said “Oh, we can’t compare to ‘16.

My father is a hunter. I thought I'd maybe give an alternative perspective.

First of all, most hunters eat what they kill. Greenwald is a vegetarian, so I understand his point of view, but hunting is consistent with eating meat. The moral issue is eating the meat, not hunting.
Hunting is about the challenge. They don't hunt cows, but wild prey who have evolved over billions to escape getting eaten. it's pretty darn hard. Hunters don't hunt domestic cows, for example.
It's also about other things. My dad has spent more time training hunting dogs than actually using them to hunt ducks/pheasant/etc. It's part of the challenge of not simply doing something, but doing it well.

1. My first best friend, when I was 6, was a boy named Steven Wu. Steven's Mom was an acupuncturist, and one day after we dropped Steven off, my Dad told me acupuncture was against the law. My first experience of perceiving crime as glamourous.
2. When I was 11 years old, my father bought a CB radio. My CB handle was "Timber Wolf".
