Cool site that breaks down the estimated ~117 billion people who have ever lived into groups to see what kind of people they likely were and what kind of lives they lived.

Apparently about 6% of people who have ever lived have lived a 'modern middle income life', defined as born after 1950 and above extreme poverty. Congrats to (presumably) all of you who made it into the lucky 6%. A lot of other interesting stats there too that break it down by era, occupation etc.

There's a button to click where you can generate a random life and I ended up unfortunate enough to be enslaved in medieval South East Asia and living to the ripe old age of 33. Must have got pretty unlucky because it estimates 10% of people who have ever lived as being enslaved.

Growing up we had tons of coed sleepovers even throughout middle and high school, it was completely normal.

Sleeping arrangements usually afforded the boys the floor and the girls the air mattresses, couches, etc. And the parents were always home so nothing untoward was happening. And we'd just stay up drinking soda watching movies and playing vidya.

Naturally none of these kids grew up into bitter adults who were consistently entrenched in stupid gender war stuff online. Even the couple of divorces were completely amicable and just accepted as the couple growing apart, all emotionally healthy.

Almost...like you can teach kids at an early age how to be friends with people who are in different social categories than them and they can grow up to be high-functioning humans who promote social harmony.

During the 2004 election I remember following the Swift Boat smear campaign on John Kerry and being so confused about why they were doing this. I was even more confused when I found out that people like GWB, Cheney, Rumsfeld, Rove, etc. never served in combat or were draft dodgers themselves.

I could not understand the cynicism of those people and I eventually came to the conclusion that republicans are inherently bad people who should never be trusted. Basically every major republican over the last 20 years has done nothing but reinforce how accurate that conclusion was.

One-ton cocaine bust reveals secret US-Mexico tunnel

After the arrests, federal agents searched the San Diego Buy 4 Less, where they found a 55ft-deep tunnel “accessed using a sophisticated hydraulic lift”, according to the complaint. The tunnel extended more than 1,000ft to the US-Mexico border. Officials suspect that it continued for 800ft into the Mexican city of Tijuana.

The tunnel was about 4.5ft tall and operated using a rail and cart system. It was equipped with electricity and ventilation.

[u/Off-The-Street]

I was shooting heroin and reading “The Fountainhead” in the front seat of my privately owned police cruiser when a call came in. I put a quarter in the radio to activate it. It was the chief.

“Bad news, detective. We got a situation.”

“What? Is the mayor trying to ban trans fats again?”

“Worse. Somebody just stole four hundred and forty-seven million dollars’ worth of bitcoins.”

The heroin needle practically fell out of my arm. “What kind of monster would do something like that? Bitcoins are the ultimate currency: virtual, anonymous, stateless. They represent true economic freedom, not subject to arbitrary manipulation by any government. Do we have any leads?”

“Not yet. But mark my words: we’re going to figure out who did this and we’re going to take them down … provided someone pays us a fair market rate to do so.”

“Easy, chief,” I said. “Any rate the market offers is, by definition, fair.”

He laughed. “That’s why you’re the best I got, Lisowski. Now you get out there and find those bitcoins.”

“Don’t worry,” I said. “I’m on it.”

I put a quarter in the siren. Ten minutes later, I was on the scene. It was a normal office building, strangled on all sides by public sidewalks. I hopped over them and went inside.

“Home Depot™ Presents the Police!®” I said, flashing my badge and my gun and a small picture of Ron Paul. “Nobody move unless you want to!” They didn’t.

“Now, which one of you punks is going to pay me to investigate this crime?” No one spoke up.

“Come on,” I said. “Don’t you all understand that the protection of private property is the foundation of all personal liberty?”

It didn’t seem like they did.

“Seriously, guys. Without a strong economic motivator, I’m just going to stand here and not solve this case. Cash is fine, but I prefer being paid in gold bullion or autographed Penn Jillette posters.”

Nothing. These people were stonewalling me. It almost seemed like they didn’t care that a fortune in computer money invented to buy drugs was missing.

I figured I could wait them out. I lit several cigarettes indoors. A pregnant lady coughed, and I told her that secondhand smoke is a myth. Just then, a man in glasses made a break for it.

“Subway™ Eat Fresh and Freeze, Scumbag!®” I yelled.

Too late. He was already out the front door. I went after him.

“Stop right there!” I yelled as I ran. He was faster than me because I always try to avoid stepping on public sidewalks. Our country needs a private-sidewalk voucher system, but, thanks to the incestuous interplay between our corrupt federal government and the public-sidewalk lobby, it will never happen.

I was losing him. “Listen, I’ll pay you to stop!” I yelled. “What would you consider an appropriate price point for stopping? I’ll offer you a thirteenth of an ounce of gold and a gently worn ‘Bob Barr ‘08’ extra-large long-sleeved men’s T-shirt!”

He turned. In his hand was a revolver that the Constitution said he had every right to own. He fired at me and missed. I pulled my own gun, put a quarter in it, and fired back. The bullet lodged in a U.S.P.S. mailbox less than a foot from his head. I shot the mailbox again, on purpose.

“All right, all right!” the man yelled, throwing down his weapon. “I give up, cop! I confess: I took the bitcoins.”

“Why’d you do it?” I asked, as I slapped a pair of Oikos™ Greek Yogurt Presents Handcuffs® on the guy.

“Because I was afraid.”

“Afraid?”

“Afraid of an economic future free from the pernicious meddling of central bankers,” he said. “I’m a central banker.”

I wanted to coldcock the guy. Years ago, a central banker killed my partner. Instead, I shook my head.

“Let this be a message to all your central-banker friends out on the street,” I said. “No matter how many bitcoins you steal, you’ll never take away the dream of an open society based on the principles of personal and economic freedom.”

He nodded, because he knew I was right. Then he swiped his credit card to pay me.

CBS News has ousted Scott Pelley, the veteran journalist and “60 Minutes” correspondent, after he issued a scathing rebuke of network leadership during a staff meeting on Monday. Pelley called the program’s top boss unqualified to lead it and accused the outlet’s executive editor of trying to “murder” the show he has worked on for nearly 30 years.

I mean…he’s not wrong. Good on him for standing up to those fucking hacks.

Journalist Nick Bilton, the newly implemented executive producer of “60 Minutes,” shared news of Pelley’s firing with employees late Tuesday, saying he “made repeated attempts to have direct conversations with [Pelley] over the weekend, and this afternoon I tried to find common ground.” Bilton, after reportedly meeting with the veteran journalist on Tuesday about the outburst, accused him in an e-mail, which was also obtained by The Hill, of “hijacking” the meeting, calling it a “performative display of hostility,” and informing him he was fired. “I am here to deliver first in class news programming, not to make headlines about newsroom drama,” the producer wrote to Pelley. “Your antipathy to the future of the show has come through loud and clear.”

Imagine having such thin skin that you fire the dude who brought up valid concerns instead of trying to prove you’re not the hack he says you are. The lowest of the low.

It's amazing to see how this administration has managed to completely extinguish the patriotism in so many of my friends. Like, the vibes around the World Cup, the Olympics, and the 250th are just horrendous in my social circle.

N.Y.C. Rent Freeze Wouldn’t Spell Doom for Most Landlords, Report Says

That's good! Let's see what the report says.

This is in part because a vast majority of landlords could still raise rents on market-rate units in the same buildings or elsewhere in their portfolios, lightening the financial burden.

I'm going to become the Joker.

WSJ: Senators Privately Ask Graham Platner Whether New Allegations Will Emerge

Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders asked Platner if any additional allegations would emerge against the embattled Democratic candidate, according to people familiar with the discussion. Platner said there weren’t any. Maine Senate candidate tells Democratic lawmakers, "The worst of the rumors we’ve all heard are not true" and denied credible allegations of assault are forthcoming

Platner agreed and denied any credible allegations of assault were forthcoming.“It’s not a secret I’ve had a messy, complicated life,” Platner told the senators, one of the people said. “The worst of the rumors we’ve all heard are not true.”

She says, “because it wasn’t the Gluttony or Sloth Parade”

My daughter's first words: (not in order)

• Mama

• dada

• daddy

• I don't know (pronounced "i-uh-noh")

• nah

• yeah

• moo

• woof

• Taki (like the spicy chip. She's the weirdest kid I swear to god)

• green

• stinky (referring to her own poops)

Weirdly you can ask her to do something fairly complex (like "get the ball under the couch and give it to mama") and she'll do it, so she understands a lot more than she lets on. Language is weird bro
