There’s lots of hand-wringing about people being principled in not supporting candidates who will not stand by basic human rights for trans people, a point they wouldn’t concede just a few years ago. I have a simple solution: support killing dogs instead. Some people don’t like dogs. Be pragmatic. Related

I met up with @jacksondahl in Copenhagen and had a conversation about the value of lingering in confusion, using constraints to enable more creative work, how I journal, why love is like eating dogs, and many other things. You can find a recording below. Quoting @jacksondahl Henrik Karlsson returns to Dialectic. One of my 2025 highlights was meeting one of my favorite writers in Copenhagen and interviewing him on my fairly new podcast. It was a fan favorite. This conversation may have topped it.

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
