i appreciate the time and effort that people like 4/5, bi and mc put into responding to a lot of the news and debate. they surely put in way more research and know more things than most on here
Way to overlook those mining the Twitter mines for vibes based takes.

Yellen is punching above her weight in this role

She is a bright mind but a terrible public speaker

When you ban enough books and kill off humanities, music, and art, there's plenty of time to earn a little scratch at the plant.
