it’s not the first self-aggrandizing thing Fartlow has written or tweeted about, apparently
― mh, Thursday, 27 May 2021 13:05 (five years ago)
there’s some “these music artists who are anti-israel wouldn’t have been as popular as they are if I hadn’t written about them” tweet that blew my mind in her feed! good stuff

just looked at her feed and it’s 90% retweets of people saying how she’s been viciously attacked the lady is definitely being hoisted on her own petard

Wonder if she's related to Lou Fartlow?

Sure you can. In fact, people unavoidably do it all the time. It may not be a particularly robust estimate. But this is the whole basis of Bayesian thinking. https://t.co/4jMgty2z24— Nate Silver (@NateSilver538) May 27, 2021

something about being a pundit in the social media era, the simultaneous hit and boost your ego takes when a million people tell you to eat shit, fragile psyches arent equipped to handle it
― lag∞n, Thursday, 27 May 2021 16:52 (five years ago)
It’s even more egregious when someone like Nate Silver assigns a percentage to something like this, because millions will believe it must be data-based instead of ass-based.— John Smith (@GOP_U) May 27, 2021

the e*e b*rl*w instagram, which I clicked on for reasons I will not delve into, is wacky. she uses it as a… platform for screenshots of her tweets, and to manually image-retweet things and comment on them off of twitter?
this is some kind of weird strategy I am unfamiliar with
― mh, Thursday, 27 May 2021 17:10 (five years ago)
so is Nate Silver's position basically "I can't tell the difference between true things and false things, so I'll just say it's 50/50 but tilted in favor of the side that isn't currently yelling at me?" dude's got a bad case of Dilbertbrain

If life has taught me nothing else, it's that when there's an unusually long delay for your order at the coffee shop/restaurant/whatever, there probably was some snafu ("they forgot to put it in") and you're not being a jerk for politely inquiring about it.— Nate Silver (@NateSilver538) May 26, 2021

Chiles is cancelled I'm afraid. He had some shit-talking QC on his 5live show doing a hideously pro-cop account of the Hillsborough disaster and didn't once challenge him. twat.

A teeny-tiny inclusive language thing I've tried to get better at this past year is avoiding northern hemisphere-specific seasonal language.

late on the latest stuff on eve fartlow, who sucks, and I know I’ve mentioned this before, but after reading one of the essays in jia tolentino’s book about bari weiss and other people whose entire online business model is getting dunked on for attention, I’ve gotten so much less mad about these people even if I still like to make fun of them
