Lawfare blog is also really good, but super into the weeds when it comes to law and foreign policy. But if you want some dry, evidence based analytical articles on political and legal subjects, they got you fam.

Personally feel people focus way too much on keeping up with news. It's not actually valuable aside from appearing "informed". Obviously if it pertains to your interests and/or jobs it's fine. I browse esports news and certain tech news sites (hacker news, techmeme, etc).

You asked about the news, not On Point or Fresh Air. Those are discussion call in shows, not news. Their reporting does not have much of a left leaning slant. No more than the Times or Post's news section.

you're right, I misrepresented what I was trying to say by including other forms of media but npr does have a tendency to both report on and sympathize more with progressive values on various newsworthy topics

I've been reading The Atlantic and Wired lately because I generally enjoy their articles and a yearly subscription was only about $25. Both are fairly left-leaning, but The Atlantic usually throws in a few never-Trumper voices to be the conservative counter-view.

Maybe the issue is that more people don't care about the news, but there's a critical amount of people that is required for them to care about news for things to actually change / make an impact

and by caring about the news i mean to care enough to seek actual truths and knowledge and verify facts and find reliable sources

that being said ive divested myself quit a bit these days.

To be honest there are no shortage of conservative publications and outlets. There is a whole industry of them funded by conservative billionaires filling the world with think prices. Some of them are very good. The print version of the national review for instance. And NPR has conservative guests, though maybe not the Ben Shapiro type.

Ben Shapiro is a paid shill and I want to know which billionaire auger daddy is funding his terrible publication. Because there is. O way that thing is running on ads alone, someone is bankrolling that shit and PagerU.

Playing around a bit with the vita, it actually seems like a really nice console hardware wise.

With some of the weirdest fucking decisions ever ... a specially formatted SD card just so Sony could charge 3x-4x price for them? Nonsense. Same thing as with the original psp, it's a pretty garbage console without the homebrew capabilities unless you're made of money and don't mind bending over for Sony every time you want a game.

I don't think I've ever played a game with Comeh, and I ran almost exclusively disasterstack/Omnistack™ for a while. I think the Comehstack is another set of Comeh's friends.

That and the Omnistack™ which was loads of fun. Somehow we won games.
