Revolution is an effort to discover or to create truth, not to prove what is true. [...] The highest level of human creativity is the constant developing and advancing of your vision."

I get that everyone loves the guillotine imagery right now, but it's probably worth reminding everyone that The Terror wasn't a leftist thing. It was a centrist thing. The French Revolution wasn't a socialist revolution, it was a Liberal revolution. The Jacobins were radical liberals.
There's an ideological rythme and meter that flows through history. Where Robespierre killed those to his right but killed far more to his left, so has the Liberal state always done exactly the same. And where the result of murdering away the left ended with a reactionary dictatorship in France, so has the American Revolution ultimately played out more slowly but with the same results. Not with guillotines but with prisons, not with the Committee of Public Safety but with the FBI and COINTELPRO.

Almost all of the songs are the same or similar. Fans have had After the Astronaut for years, since the early 2000s. 🙄 Just wish it was REALLY new material. What, Weird Revolution didn't have Junkie Jenny in Gaytown? I know. But it's all everywhere already.

Why is war so economically costly?
Our answer is that modern war lowers output not only by destroying productive factors,
but also by making the surviving economy work less efficiently
Our key policy implication is that restoring allocative efficiency
–and preparing institutional arrangements that facilitate rapid reallocation in times of stress
–is critical for sustaining economic capacity, defense, and national security.

Taiwanese manufacturers are rapidly expanding factories in Mexico to assemble servers,
which are now the country’s top US export, overtaking autos that dominated its trade for decades.
Mexico is the second-largest provider of enterprise servers to the US so far this year…

In December 1783, after bidding an emotional farewell to his troops at dinner in the Long Room at Fraunces Tavern,
George Washington walked across the street and set sail to Virginia.
The modest brick building in Manhattan’s financial district was constructed in 1719 as a family home
before Samuel Fraunces converted it to a tavern in 1762.
The Long Room, on the second floor, is part of the extensive Revolution-era Fraunces Tavern Museum today.
The building ha…

The United States isn't in the throes of a socialist revolution that will decimate the moderates.
What I see is a lot of voter enthusiasm for Democratic candidates
(even as the party as an institution continues to have a public image problem)
and some eye-popping turnout numbers.
A wide variety of voters seem ready to give a wide variety of candidates a chance in November.
As TNR editor Michael Tomasky recently wrote,
Democrats will have to follow t…

Costco sold 157.4million rotisserie chickens worldwide last year,
almost double the number of a decade ago. 
“It’s $4.99 and for Costco members, that’s one fantastic deal.
I don’t think you can produce it for that,”
said Walt Shafer, who oversaw the construction and management of the Nebraska site before he retired from Costco this year.
Roasted in ovens in the rear of the retail giant’s hundreds of cavernous stores,
the birds have cost only $4.99 since 2…

With Trump in the White House,
it is easy to see that the big anniversary ahead will pass over the fact that the US’s revolutionaries instituted one of the world’s richest, most powerful slave societies,
which their descendants overthrew.
Showcased instead will be paeans to the pioneer spirit, military power and business civilization as the embodiment of the country’s perfect, flawless revolution,
perhaps with a little plantation nostalgia on the side.

A bet on near-term explosive AI-driven growth:
Whether U.S. real GDP per capita will grow by at least 15% within a single year
(measured relative to prior peak)
by the end of 2033.
Agreed on X, 15–16 August 2026.
Odds: 4:1
— every $1 staked by the fast-growth side is matched by $4 from the no-fast-growth side.
Implied probability of the fast-growth scenario: 20%.

FDA approves pancreatic cancer drug that extends patients’ lives
The Food and Drug Administration has approved a new pancreatic cancer drug,
a pill that nearly doubled patients’ average survival times

Researchers have called the drug,

We are watching the birth of a new category of medicine:
proactive, multi-cancer, blood-based screening

The United States has a habit of making enemies for life.
Analysts often discuss “forever wars”
but talk far less about forever enemies,
the countries trapped in amber in Washington’s imagination at the moment they first became adversaries.
A revolution, hostage crisis, war, or attack becomes a permanent lens,
flattening complex and changing societies and turning old grievances into enduring U.S. policy rooted in emotion rather than strategy.
Numerous cou…
