  1. Tim Barrus New York Times

    Take notes. Google is the black plague. I have articulated and written that for the past twenty years, Wikipedia must have a financial stake in the arrangement with the algorithm. Google manages to place Wikipedia first. They subvert the algorithm that they made in the first place. Wikipedia cherry picks.…

  2. TIM BARRUS ON CREATIVITY NEW YORK TIMES

    Civil moderation is the status quo at the New York Times. I have begged them to define what civil means. But they are literally not capable of it. The editing is infantile, ignorant, and borders on illiteracy. I wanted to write this differently. But here goes. Kathleen Kingsbury is the…

  3. Tim Barrus, New York Times

    Take notes. When you add up all the actuarial  elements for a homo sapiens who is overweight, the numbers do not lie. The chances that a 78-year-old male will not be with us is ten percent. The story doesn’t end there. The chances that a 78-year-old overweight male with a…

  4. On Fighting Back

    Take notes. Trump wants to burn the constitution. He will write the new constitution. He already has. What I want to know is where are the tens of thousands of other people who have sworn to protect the constitution. Trump took this oath to protect. And so did every member…

  5. Like No

    Take notes. The despair is real. The hate is real. And the revenge that drives the beast is real as well. We don’t talk about jealousy too much. This is a Culture World War. You will be told that it’s more complex than that, and it is. But not to…

  6. Ezra Kline Pulls His Punches

    Take notes. I would never say: The American people are stupid. I might think it. But I would not say it. Mainly, because the American people are armed. It is not uncivil for me to say that the American people desire to be entertained. Trump is giving them what they…

  7. Mobsters

    Take notes. The morality of losing everything (usually because someone talked) One of the recurrent themes here is organized crime. We have made the thing a little difficult for made guys in the mob to move among us. The mob has weathered bloody insurrections, federal convictions and undercover agents through…

  9. Appalachia Kicks

    I live in Appalachia. Supposedly, this, too, is North Carolina. I live here because it’s cheap. Economics is the great leveler. I eat what I can grow. Why is that supposed to be a humiliation. This is the land of No One Makes Much Around Here Anyway. We are not…

  10. Tim Barrus: Minority Rule is Usually Ruthless

    We are ruled by ruthless masters. They are called the aristocracy. They are unfit to rule anything.   https://www.nytimes.com/2022/10/21/opinion/minority-rule-majoritarian-democracy.html?campaign_id=0&emc=edit_cr_20221021&instance_id=0&nl=comments-notifications&regi_id=56243886&segment_id=0&user_id=acf7e0fa0ccfaa274c5a8c73c0976c4a#commentsContainer&permid=121057070:121057070

  11. Tim Barrus, New York Times

    The very idea that conservatives can be “cultural warrors” is fraught with problems. Like the nature of reality.

  12. Tim Barrus, New York Times

    People are crazy. Krazy Daisey dazed and confused as shit. I don’t read comments if they apply to me. I go off on people but I am swallowing my autistic Asperger’s Tongue They Might. I send this stuff out and there it goes into the Upper-Middle-Caste of the cast of…

  13. Tim Barrus, New York Times

    There is something a little inflated about an editorial POV that paints Republicanism as the real America. I would argue that Republicanism is what has caused us to stand on the brink but we do not know what of. Looking down at our feet, we know the abyss is there.…

  14. Tim Barrus, New York Times

    I admire Ross Douthat’s writing. It is focused and cogent. It’s not stupid. Most republicans are just stupid – Madison. A prerequisite for being a republican is an IQ of less than zero. Of course, they don’t want abortion. They wouldn’t be here.

  15. Tim Barrus: What is closure.

    Tim Barrus, NewYork Times Tim Barrus, New York Times I am a communist. Closure seems to be another American bugabuga designed to reinforce that illusive notion that articulates the rhetoric living is worth the work and the struggles of Being Here. Or Not. Americans think “Or Not” is a moral…

  16. Tim Barrus: Disfigured Babies

    I am a communist. One school of thought maintains pregnancy is an aberration. The pregnant woman is delusional. We don’t need her. We don’t need mommy. How many mommies are at the NYT. The first thing that should be done is break up the New York Times into microscopic irrelevance.…

  17. Tim Barrus New York Times

    First, it was kids in cages. Some died. Of neglect. It was beyond cruel. They were sick yet it was public policy to deny them their parents, to deny them food, to deny them water, to make sure they slept in the concrete floor. It was public policy. We took…
