If there is a such thing as sexual politics, Leonard Cohen is definitely a Democrat
Definitely a Democrat by Michael DubePop is always mass culture; poetry isn't. Cohen is both mass culture and a man with a circulation of one, somehow.

Stop eating Lady Gaga's Oreos - by Adam MastroianniIn fact, while most of us feel like billionaires owe us something (see: the California Billionaire Tax, heading to ballots this fall), many people apparently feel like they owe something to their favored celebrities

Stop eating Lady Gaga's Oreos - by Adam MastroianniHe blames an ideology called poptimism: the idea that popular art (and especially pop music) is just as meritorious as any other kind of art.

California Gubernatorial Candidates From Z to ZI really like this guy, but when I inspect that emotion further I find it has a flavor of “I could fix him”, which I’m told is not a good way to choose one’s relationship partners or governors
California Gubernatorial Candidates From Z to ZI find the specifics less impressive than his research process: he went around talking to homeless people and asking them what they needed

California Gubernatorial Candidates From Z to ZFor example, in one experiment, dogs' pelvises were distended using infusions of solution when food was presented to them. After rounds of pairing the two, salivation occurred without presenting food once the pelvis was distended.[22] Interoceptive conditioning studies like this illustrated that interoceptive sensations may be important for learned behavior and emotion.
InteroceptionWhere messengers run errands for no cause between the kingdoms of kings of no history
Baby's World by Rabindranath Tagore - Famous poems, famous poets. - All PoetryA cognitive reduction is a form of reductive analysis where, rather than reducing something to physical phenomena, we reduce something to the cognitive machinery which give rise to the idea.
Cognitive Reduction — LessWrongA failure mode in this step is giving justifications instead of explaining the process itself. Arguing that the reason we have an illusion of free will was that it was evolutionarily adaptive falls into this failure mode, as it doesn't explain the cognitive algorithm which produces the feeling of free will, and so doesn't dissolve the question.
Dissolving the Question — LessWrongyou can confuse yourself by thinking a condition must have advantages, when actually it’s the risk of the condition that has the advantages (to a first approximation, cancer is always bad, you just don’t want to always keep your body in the most cancer-minimizing state possible)
How Natural Tradeoff And Failure Components?While it is correctly understood that warm air rises because it is lighter than cooler air, the density difference alone doesn’t explain why it rises

Rat Park - WikipediaThe Navigation Fund, which oversees billions of dollars in scientific funding, no longer bankrolls journal publications at all.
The one science reform we can all agree on, but we're too cowardly to doSixteen years ago, the US had its own Elbakyan. His name was Aaron Swartz. He downloaded millions of paywalled journal articles using a connection at MIT, possibly intending to share them publicly. Government agents arrested him, charged him with wire fraud, and intended to fine him $1 million and imprison him for 35 years. Instead, he killed himself. He was 26.
The one science reform we can all agree on, but we're too cowardly to doIn the early 2010s, a Kazakhstani computer programmer named Alexandra Elbakyan started downloading articles en masse and posting them publicly on a website called SciHub. The publishers sued her, so she’s hiding out in Russia, which protects her from extradition.
The one science reform we can all agree on, but we're too cowardly to dopolitical scientist James C. Scott once wrote that many systems only “work” because people disobey them. For instance, the Soviet Union attempted to impose agricultural regulations so strict that people would have starved if they followed the letter of the law. Instead, citizens grew and traded food in secret. This made it look like the regulations were successful, when in fact they were a sham.

In schizophrenia, greater frontal cortex serotonin release was correlated with more severe baseline negative symptoms (Brief Negative Symptom Scale: Pearson r = 0.42; P = .04) and poorer functioning (Social Functioning Scale: Pearson r = −0.42; P = .04).

This was in reaction to a tragedy in the previous decade when a drug called thalidomide, which thousands of pregnant European and Australian women took for morning sickness, was found to cause severe birth defects — and sometimes death — for their babies
