The Little Red Hen: Why the Data Center Fight Is a Culture Fight (opens the original)
Read excerpt
A while back, I got curious about how different AI models “think,” so I ran a small experiment. At the time, I was using ChatGPT to research and brainstorm. I asked it to tell the classic story of The Little Red Hen in the voices of three popular American AIs. The results were interesting, and surprisingly different in tone. A little red hen finds wheat and asks for help. Pig, duck, and cat all say no. She plants, harvests, mills, and bakes alone. When the bread comes out, they suddenly want a s
As Ye Will It: Witchcraft, Central Planning, and Other Cases of Magical Thinking (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I experimented with candle and crystal magic, with herbs. I read a lot of books. I even tried a few simple love spells. But even then, I sensed something was off in claims that you could chant a few words, exert your will, and make the world comply — “as ye will it, so mote it be.” The world is complex and resistant to change, much as matter possesses inertia, and I could not unsee that. I grew out of magic and into Christianity, a faith in which you pray that God’s will be done and accept the a
The Victimhood Shield (opens the original)
Read excerpt
When I was younger, socially awkward, and far less wise, I thought I had something figured out: Lead with the trauma. I had been abused as a child, and early in any new relationship, I would tell people. It was oversharing, no question, but it almost always drew a sympathetic response. I believed it made things easier. Maybe it did — for me. (Probably not for my friends and acquaintances. It must have been an uncomfortable conversation.) Then one day, a therapist friend at one of my many jobs as
Scamdani and the Truth About City-Owned Grocery Stores (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Some of my earliest memories are from a grocery store. My mother, and later her sister, worked at a locally owned Key Market running the deli department. Baked goods, hot meals, sliced meats and fresh salads, and the best donuts you ever tasted made from scratch every day — it was a kid’s paradise. She would sometimes take me to work on Saturdays, and I’d help, doing everything but slicing the meat (age-restricted because it’s dangerous). It was fun for me, and I learned things I would not have
Delivery Killed the Food Desert. Politicians Didn't Notice. (opens the original)
Read excerpt
On July 25, 2026, seven Save A Lot stores closed on Chicago’s South and West Sides. These were not ordinary stores. In 2022, the city gave the operator, Yellow Banana, $13.5 million in taxpayer money to renovate and reopen them in neighborhoods labeled “food deserts.” Yellow Banana agreed to keep the stores open for 10 years. Four years later, the stores are gone. The company faced multiple problems, including the death of its CEO earlier this year and a 26% drop in SNAP and EBT sales that wiped
