We don’t talk enough about how morally depraved the tech industry turned out to be. Every single ounce of their self-regarding statements of values was an outright lie.

Its the era of Slop. Everything is slop. The food we eat, water we drink, the clothes we wear. Enshitified, Slopified, and all at the low price of Expensive.

One of the few solaces I have about this is how the rich have degraded home construction labor to the point not even they can get built to suit houses that don’t leak.

We're at a point where there are no cheap options to retreat to and no price points that guarantee quality. Every run-down studio is $1400, every fast food meal is $17, every luxury condo has peel-n-stick tiles, every $300 pair of boots falls apart. Endless expensive mediocrity.

Student Loans In Limbo As Court Again Rejects Bid To Kill Repayment Plan For 7 Million Borrowers Millions of borrowers with federal student loans remain in limbo this week after a court again rejected attempts to immediately terminate a popular repayment program.

8. In the United States, Pete Hegseth forced Scouting America to agree to classify members by sex assigned at birth, eliminate diversity initiatives, and effectively out and segregate transgender scouts from their peers. Girl Scouts of the USA, however, has yet to see the same regression.

UK's 'Girl Scout' Group Has Banned Trans Girls From Joining In Cruel New Low “This Government must be held responsible for the long-lasting damage they are doing to a generation of LGBTQ+ people.”

7. The news about their staggering success comes during a broader regression around scouting organizations with respect to transgender people. In December, the United Kingdom's Girlguiding—the British equivalent of the Girl Scouts—banned transgender girls from joining.

Erin In The Morning Did you know that Girl Scouts has, for a long time, accepted trans girls and nonbinary scouts? Trans kids are under attack. Every year, I make a thread of trans and nonbinary girl scouts you can get....

2. Five years ago as anti-trans legislation first began spreading, I kept thinking about the kids caught in the middle of it—trans kids suddenly facing a wave of hostility simply for existing. That year, I started something small: a trans Girl Scout cookie list. Only three scouts were on it.

He lies

This is his DGAF presidential term. He’s no longer legally electable and is visibly dying in front of us, so seems like he’s just making decisions on random vindictive whim at this point. The further his approval ratings go down, the less he GAF about the American people.

He likes killing, that's all.

“In an arid region with few other resources, everyone is dependent on a daily influx of food and desalinated water along supply routes and pipelines that could be struck from the air.”

Riyadh gets 90% of its fresh water from one desalination plant. About 85% of Israel’s domestic fresh water consumption comes from five major desalination plants. Teheran is already in severe drought. Let’s hope cooler heads prevail. A water war would be absolutely catastrophic.

Back in the 1990s, the US murdered 500,000 Iraqi children by bombing Iraqi water treatment infrastructure. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright said that their deaths "were worth it".
