The Angine de Poitrine Argument for UBI Why Angine de Poitrine's viral microtonal math rock KEXP session, Ireland's permanent basic income for artists, and Albert Einstein are three sides of the same human triangle

"The paper is essentially a mathematical proof that a world with universal basic income is more meritocratic than a world without one, because luck-based distribution — which is what we have now — throws away most of the talent in the room."

While Congress Ponders Cutting Spy Powers, the FBI Amps Up Domestic Surveillance A vote on FISA is getting headlines, but the FBI may have ways to keep using the tool

Trump Reverses Himself, Joins Obama and Biden in Demanding "Clean" Renewal of NSA Domestic Spying Powers In 2024, Trump urged Congress to “KILL FISA.” With a vote upcoming this week, he now demands its renewal with no limits or safeguards, and he has ample Democratic support.

" One would think that people who believed that about the American President would want to rein in rather than hand him virtually unlimited spying powers."

Democrats Have a Tax Problem. They’re Solving It Wrong. Cory Booker and other Democrats want to expand the standard deduction. A $375/mo Standard Tax Credit would put $4,500 a year in every American's pocket—and reach those deductions leave behind

The Internet's Most Powerful Archiving Tool Is in Peril As major news outlets cut off the Wayback Machine, journalists and advocacy groups are rallying to protect the Internet Archive’s vast collection of web pages.

@archive.org - and their ability to preserve knowledge for the public good is under attack

This is a very long interview, but it traces a fairly straight line of how the Democrats went from comically incompetent lesser evil to comically incompetent at least equal evil.

Just got an update on a Kickstarter I packed during Zine Quest 2, which if my math is correct was in 2020. They swear the game's going to be delivered any time now. Don't think I'll start holding my breath just yet.
