Very excited for the coming episodes of Neolib Desktop, featuring one podjon in the Chipotle Mayo corner dropping targeted drone takes on how better things aren't possible.

Crooked Media sucks content wise but as an employer I’d imagine they’re much better than the Ringer.

Huh, due to the name I'd assumed that Crooked Media had something to do with Crooked Timber, the lefty academic blog. Clearly I didn't pay very close attention.

I don’t really have interest in listening to politics through podcasts, but there is waaay too much genuine villainy and scum out there worthy of my contempt for me to get mad Obama-era douchey neoliberals who are (I assume) ultimately trying to make the world a genuinely better place.

I like how a bunch of comments right now are "GO WOKE GO BROKE" as if we're not in the midst of a pandemic that crippled the economy and essentially destroyed media ad sales for the foreseeable future but yeah, its the woke politics that caused this.
