TW: Mention of suicide. Dial 988 if you need help.
MiLo is toughing out a premature Tucson heat wave, so we start with some commiseration about Arizona summers. Then we talk about immigration and gun control and how small, highly-energized minorities prevent progress on these issues. Finally, we discuss the problem of motivated reasoning and then reasoning in general as it relates to both humans and AI.
