    okay, i hate to be That Person On Twitter, but I just had the WORST experience with tech support so not only did they make me wait 20 minutes but when the operator got on she IMMEDIATELY said the code phrase that restored all my memories of my time as The Company's top assassin

    So a friend of mine challenged me to put my money where my mouth is when I was talking about distortions in political betting markets, I did, and IT’S SO FUN. I don’t think I’ve ever spent so much time thinking about whether to buy something that costs 85 cents

    Why does Mike Pompeo have so many blank world maps in his house? I’ve explored the idea for AFTER DARK, which is my (unsanctioned) name for pieces that go up on the site after 7pm ET

    A good solution to some game dynamics that disincent good storytelling in favor of metagaming/optimization (and may also be reflections of high fantasy’s racial blind spot— I just read the objection for the first time now, still thinking about it)

    It's a pleasure to see a transition involving men with significant theological (not quite differences? More like) orientations proceed so gracefully

    Update: In a genre that's kind of bad at romance, Pevara and Androl are up there as my favorite high fantasy couple of all time.

    So I loved 非诚勿扰 when I was living in China, but I only ever saw the (blatantly) CCP-scrubbed version. It sounds like the original was messsy (by which I mean more honest, probably closer to the trashy American version, and AMAZING TV)

    How rich is billionaire rich? So imagine you saved $10,000 every single day since the building of the pyramids. Today you'd still only own 20% of the wealth of 1 of the 5 richest billionaires. Does anybody need to be that rich?

    Feeling conflicted about my decision to re-read the Brandon Sanderson Wheel of Time books right now. My head: Wow there's so much fantasy out there by emerging authors to explore! My heart: If I don't experience Egwene's tenure as Amyrlin one more time I'll probably die.

    So much to chew on in this discussion of Asian fantasy, including why/how/where to the genre is developing and lots of good book recs. Just added "The Poppy War" and "Daughter of the Sword" to my ever-growing list.

    "Yield, foul beast!" the knight shouted. "Eh," the dragon shrugged. "Know, vile wyrm, that I chose good over evil a long time ago, and-" "Wait, what? When did you last choose good over evil?" "Why, when I was but a young squire." "You think you only have to choose once?"

    Ahh now strategically, I think this makes more sense— it’s hard to make the case that GAO is partisan, but focusing on its determinations against Obama may be effective (even though I think this sort of what-about-ism is bullshit). Stay tuned for more, I’m betting.

    That sound you hear 1 gajillion people reading the Wikipedia article on . Note to the trolls who are calling for Trump to fire leadership -the GAO isn’t an Executive Branch Agency. He’d have about as much authority to do that as he would to fire Speaker Pelosi.

    GAO leadership doesn’t like to make waves, but it seems that this was a sufficiently clear case that they weighed in. I’m interested to see if GOP goes after GAO the way they did after CBO during the attempted ACA repeal, given how much GOP members trust the agency.

    Star Trek is pretty good, but DS9 is pure gold.

    Enjoyed this movie, was also suspicious of the “domestic terrorism got the vote” implication, given its success record elsewhere
