I do stuff and things. The rise of AI gives me hope that one day computers will feel as bad about themselves as they should.

T. rex took 40 years to reach full size, study finds Tyrannosaurus rex may have taken far longer to grow up than scientists once thought. By analyzing growth rings in fossilized leg bones from 17 tyrannosaur specimens and using new statistical methods, ...

That's because they coddle them too much now. Back in my day, it only took 20 years for T-Rexes to fully mature, because they had discipline. Spare the rod, spoil the terrible tyrant lizard.

My daughter: in the TLC song β€œNo Scrubs,” what do they mean by β€œscrub”?

Me: Honey this is the one and only pop song in history that opens up with a dictionary and thesaurus entry.

/6 ICE is a monument to totalitarianism, lawlessness, and bigotry. It should be ripped out and woodchippered root and branch and replaced with something focused on the concept that you can’t defend the rule of law by burning it down.

Let’s talk about abolishing ICE.

Very few people who say β€œabolish ICE” mean β€œabandon all immigration enforcement.” Rather, they mean β€œthe structure of immigration enforcement is irretrievably broken and needs to be reorganized, just like we did 23 years ago when we created ICE.”

We ALREADY have ICE concentration camps.
We are ALREADY so far gone.
Fuck the people who support this evil.

I agree in theory. People say "we're going to have elections in 2026 and 2028."

That said.

Roe was settled law. Dozens of people told me I was being "dramatic".

And here we are.

I don't think it's fair to scold people for believing Shitler when he says he wants to cancel elections.

Representative Ro Khanna has said: The silence from many media-hyped 2028 contenders today is shocking.

If you cannot oppose this regime change war for oil, you don't have the moral clarity or guts to lead our party or nation.

A Criminal Empire The United States launches a conquest and occupation of Venezuela to extract its oil wealth. The neocon dream is the America First dream

The kidnapping of Maduro inaugurates a highly dangerous era of U.S. empire that for perhaps the first time in an era of mass media is not pretending to be anything other than a violent, extractive enterprise of domination.

At least 60,000 murdered in Sudanese city, which resembles β€˜a slaughterhouse’ Satellite evidence shows extent of paramilitary massacre in El Fasher

So, El Fasher looks like one of the worst single event atrocities to happen this century so far, but the evidence has come in such a trickle it seems to only now be getting verified

Traditional American politics is premised on the notion that sometimes you lose and sometimes you win and you have to deal with that.

But Trumpism is premised on the notion that any result where you don’t win is illegitimate, unlawful, fraud, criminal.

You can’t negotiate with people like that.

It is not a coincidence or a historical contingency that the US right is fundamentally based on lies. This is true for all reactionary politics at all times & places. It is intrinsic to reactionary politics.

Everyone who is saying we are in Germany right now really missed the part with the ghettos.

Not to mention, Germany was based on again, the US.

The point is we do not need to compare ourselves to another country. The US has been through this before which means we have the ability to get out.

the kimmel thing is bad but as long as they arent rounding people up indiscriminately based on race, building concentration camps and talking about eradicating those they deem sexual deviants, i think we’ll be ok

A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say β€œwe’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.

The left was derided for promoting a cancel culture because they went after predators and those who abused their wealth and power.

The right is canceling anyone who dares speak truth to power.

Both sides are not remotely the same.
