Thoughts on the Current Unpleasantness
Nick Frietas frequently leans a bit more into culture war stuff than I'd like, but he is a VERY smart guy. His military and legislative experience is both broad and deep, and he has a better understanding of the applicability of historical precedents than a lot of folks. I put a lot of stock in his analysis.
Malcom and Simone Collins are best known as pro-natalist influencers, but are more broadly a couple of epically crazy people who are rumored, by less epically crazy people to be vampires...no really.
I suspect that they are not.
They are highly autistic and rather more sanguine than I am about the likelihood of very good outcomes from A.G.I. They are also extremely smart, well informed, and entertaining. Their more worrisome, materialistic, almost Huxleyan views (which do not come out in this video) seems to be a product of their neurodivergence rather than malevolence and their analysis is quite analytical and thought provoking. I'm disturbed to agree with them more often than I don't and the worst people in the world seem to hate them, so at least give them a listen.

About That Streaming Hiatus
It was a terrorist attack by the Hiatus Ninjas!
I got a call after Tuesday's stream that Mom was in the E.R. with a suspected heart attack. I went to work, asked to be off or at least be let go early. After about 4 seconds of contemplation, they gave me the week off.
I drove 300 miles Visited Mom in the E.R., she seemed better. Fun fact: Zolpidem has side effects that include, dizziness, and hallucinations, if taken with certain arthritis medications these can also include angina, shortness of breath, perceived tightness in the chest, disorientation, and extreme weakness. Mom got put through EVERY test, but is home now (with a new set of prescriptions) and doing fine. I got in last night after having been up for 41 hours and went to bed. I just woke up....There may be some further schedule adjustments.
Spoiler Alert:
There have been some further schedule adjustments.
The schedule has been tweaked and extended to 9 days out just to annoy those dastardly Hiatus Ninjas!
(All times EDT)

Can't Lift Arms...Over Head

Banality skulks bitterly below the fold.
I have nothing in the way of compensation today, but here is a quote from Hayek which may impart some wisdom.

Not Only am I Back....
I Have a Schedule!
Stop by, Stay "Hi!" Tomorrow Night at 6pm EDT, 10pm UTC And watch me try to learn how to stream again over at https://www.twitch.tv/brickmuppet.
There is not actually going to be a hiatus between March 20 and April 1, it's just not scheduled beyond next week, except for the certainty that we WILL be covering the Artemis 2 launch, which will be the first manned circumlunar flight since 1972!

So. While I was away, did anything happen?
Oh dear.
The murderous, totalitarian regime that is, in addition to oppressing their citizenry to the tune of killing over 30,000 of that same citizenry, has unlocked the achievement worlds largest sponsor of terrorism and advocates for the annihilation of all Jews on the planet, the destruction of the United States...has over the last week, found themselves in a spot of bother.
Naturally, people are outraged.
Possibly the stupidest outrage is that surrounding the sinking of the Iranian WARSHIP by a U.S. submarine. The warship, of a country, we are at war with was, being a warship, a legitimate military target, and was sunk (as is good and proper). It now turns out that warship of the murderous, totalitarian, theocratic nation was WARNED: TWICE which is not something that a submarine is required to do when attacking an antisubmarine escort.
Lawrence Pearson has a good overview of recent events, here.
There is cause for concern as Iran has a lot of terrorists embedded around the world. Recent events indicate that this a real threat....one that will not be averted until this regime is taken down.
So stay alert and be careful.
