one of the scariest things is that the White House can post unsubstantiated information. people are dying in mass and our government cares more about PR than the lives of the people they harm and are responsible for

A lot of academia is just folks trying to perform being smart like long irrelevant questions after talks, unnecessarily critical reviews, & sounding like a journal article in social settings when folks just chilling. There are different ways of being interesting in these settings
