Matt Yglesias’ entire life has been a vast Truman Show-esque illusion puppeteered by CIA operatives and everyday he comically stumbles onto clues that this is true but never connects the dots.
“Wow, every single one of my friends and associates seem to be spook-adjacent, have all the same interests as spooks, and yet they’re all just simple normal professionals with job titles like Cultural Attache or Trade consultant for Universal Exports’ Yemen office…wierd.”
