    Someone asked me how to determine if someone is brainwashed, lying, or has a reasoned disagreement with you. Here are your most reliable clues, but exceptions and overlap would be common.

    Natural selection builds mechanisms that human engineers still struggle to match. Exhibit A: The neural structures underpinning head stabilization in this hawk. (Head stabilization has the same function as image stabilization in cameras: to maintain a steady view despite motion.)

    Spring 1940. Katyń. Kharkiv. Mednoye. The Soviets murdered 22 000 Polish officers and intelligentsia. The aim? To rid Poland of its ability to resist. In all, they executed almost half the Polish officer corps, and among them my uncle, Count Grocholski.

    The theory of borders in international relations is exactly this, that they reduce the number of local conflicts by increasing the threshold of war.

    Beautiful visualization of the brain in action. For some reason, when matter is organized and functioning like this, it becomes conscious: It feels and sees and loves and dreams. What a strange thing for matter to do!

    I went to a one day class with 14YO. We both studied and were confused by the same exact passages in the book, the same sentences of the teacher & the same questions on the test. I was able to say to him what no one told me: “You are struggling because your mind works correctly.”

    When I advocate localism, I sometimes hear “but what about time X when localism went wrong?” Yup, anything can go wrong. When localism does, we get the Salem witch trials, with 19 dead. When centralism does, we get the Holocaust or Killing Fields, with millions dead.

    I genuinely don’t understand how Jeremy Corbyn could have lost. He announced his pronouns and everything.

    There's something so insidious about the aesthetic of self-deprivation that's developing in the US and Europe — it bills itself as anti-selfishness, but the most selfish thing in the world is to insist that everyone else constrain themselves to wants that are acceptably meager

    This warms my heart. As a B- math student in high school, I couldn’t really understand math to save my life. When I found out what math really was one year later, I was shocked by its limitless otherworldly beauty. How and why should anything this sublime be so mangled by school?
