I’m up at 6 in the morning to go to the gym, commute for an hour, work until 5:30, commute home until 7, then errands, dinner, and a couple of hours to myself. On the weekends I’m about to start doing bar prep. Therefore I should let people lie to me? Fuck outta here.
Feeling real New York tonight.
No, wait, I’m not done here: one of the damn problems with the media is that they, whose job it is to understand and convey information, *do not even do this,* thus the term Gell-Mann amnesia and the capacity of every actual expert to see their topic roundly botched in the press.
Imagine crafting a standard for media critics in which, to protest at the lies and incompetence on offer, they must be *better than the media at it own job, despite not being professionals.* Good GOD throw this take back in the ocean. Bury it at sea, let it trouble us no more.
To be fair, it's not difficult to be better than the media at this stuff.
