It is, I think, darkly illustrative of ICEโs incompetencies and casual cruelties that they would look around a school in an ice cream truck. In March. In Minnesota.
When we talk about Baby Boomers not getting off the stage: In 1997, the US president was born in 1946.
In 2007, the US president was born in 1946.
In 2017, the US president was born in 1946.
And next year in 2027? The US president will have been born in 1946.
The Paradox of Tolerance disappears if you look at tolerance, not as a moral standard, but as a social contract. If someone does not abide by the terms of the contract, then they are not covered by it. In other words: The intolerant are not following the rules of the social contract of mutual tolerance. Since they have broken the terms of the contract, they are no longer covered by the contract, and their intolerance should NOT be tolerated. inspired by 'Tolerance is not a moral precept" by Yonatan Zunger ZonenteZ commasameleon Follow Sorry as someone who teaches rhetoric this is a wonderful response to the Paradox of Tolerance. I cannot tell you how many times my students have had debates about this. This is the response. This does indeed fix it. I cannot wait to tell this to my classes now. Philosophically and rhetorically this completely resolved the Paradox of Tolerance and I am floored by its simplicity and angry I never saw it before.
A screenshot of the Polymarket website showing a prediction market titled "Nuclear weapon detonation by...?" under the Geopolitics and Ukraine categories. The market displays three betting options with their current probabilities and "Buy Yes" or "Buy No" prices: "March 31" at 5%, "June 30" at 12%, and "Before 2027" at 22%. The total trading volume shown is over $843,000.
Polymarket has created a betting market on the use of nuclear weapons. Everyone involved in this should be put in prison for life.
Republican US Congressman Thomas Massie has said the war 'won't make the Epstein files go away'.
Just a random reminder that over 50 members of Congress collectively own millions of dollars in defense contractor stocks.
They stand to personally profit from wars that enrich these contractors.
Make no mistake, this is legalized corruption.
Watch how they vote this week.
When someone says โScientists do not want you to knowโ you can dismiss everything from there on. Scientists want you to know. They are desperate that you know. They canโt shut up about what they found out and want you to know.
Keep saying "slop" in reference to AI.
At every opportunity.
The techbros are listening, and this word makes them so sad on the inside that they'll hoist themselves on their own Streisand Effect petard.

world-altering decisions are being made by a cabal of gambling addicts hell bent on self enrichment no matter the cost to humanity, we should look into that.
Black and white photo of Marjane Satrapi with the quote: "The world is not divided between East and West. You are American. I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same."
Once again.
The entire millennial identity is being prepared and groomed for a version of the world that stopped existing by the time we reached it
we slammed into a horizon painted on a brick wall like fucking looney tunes
The world could be such a nice place if we allowed it. It's all so goddamn unnecessary. There's no need for any of it. It's so beautiful here. It should be so cool to be alive

the party that wants to require ID to vote abruptly invalidating a thousand peopleโs IDs overnight seems like a pretty giant flashing red light
Fun fact, US passports did not have a gender marker until 1977, when a rising trend in unisex fashion started freaking the government out.
Explicitly capitalist media is telling you that getting/continuing to get COVID is really bad for you and is, mortifyingly, still doing more to warn you than most public health leaders are.
