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.

I'm so happy the Whirling-in-Rags exists IRL for me

Happiness is walking to the corner bar and seeing your upstairs and downstairs neighbors already there

even if I could afford it I don't think I could handle the embarrassment of paying for my hypothetical kid to go

having to defend going to a private school is so embarrassing

it has never been more important to maintain ze price stabilité

Nationwide DSA "I did that!" mutual aid (have to call it this to get traction) gas station sticker campaign

Hate going out at 3:30 because there's scary kids everywhere that could punk on my unc ass

a lot of what has made discourse insane is that there's an entire crop of guys who live in dc, do a ton of uppers, and have massive gender insecurity around the fact that they're soft-handed scribes

This is a party where racist ogre John Fetterman is still on committees, I think that says a bit more about it than a guy in Maine who does not hold elected office

Big thread ending with "support Janet Mills" is precisely why none of this is going to work

There just aren't many guys left for this administration.

Lmfao. Every conversation I have with an organizer is this

Yeah. My view on Claude etc in this dimension is not "Wow we can make apps with less people" and more "Maybe we can finally make a program that doesn't suck ass for once. Possibly."

In the very very small world of labor organizing CRMs, every union, and then every division, and then every local and campaign seems to have different ideas of what the ideal CRM looks like. I have yet to come across a one size fits all tool.

"Well, Mr. Dubois, the problem with capitalism is that eventually you may need a man of the working people to come in, correct previous under-budgeting, and account for current service levels as well as expected growth! I'm a busy man, Harry."

“Well, it seems that the problem with capitalism is that eventually you may need a socialist to come in, correct previous under-budgeting, account for current service levels as well as expected growth," Mamdani continued, in reference to Eric Adams' deceptive bookkeeping.

I think people are missing why it was so important. It’s not a technicality. It was a galvanizing moment that spurred wide spread outrage and riots and protests in dozens of countries. This is why so many rushed to cast doubt on it, they were trying to “lower the temperature”.

I'm so happy, I never got to meet the Mega Rich Light Bending Guy on my first playthrough

oh yeah we're back

oh two terms as governor of a population a third of the size of Brooklyn? wow!

Never forget that this what The Washington Post said when Noem was nominated.

Just fill the tank and go dude

It's interesting that NYT comms is openly having this public debate with a left-wing commentator!

Corporate Media Buries Story of US and Israel Killing 168 in Girls School Attack No front-page stories in NYT, WSJ, WaPo. No mention on NBC and CBS Sunday Shows. No stand alone segments on Evening News shows. A death count on par with the OKC bombing is relegated to the back page.

I wrote about how the US and Israel carried out an attack on an Iranian girls school on par with the OKC bombing and US media relegated it to a back page story. No stand alone evening news segments, no front page stories, it made A11 in the NYT then everyone moved on.

No that certainly would have been a massive lift. I'm impressed by the sheer volume of work all this must have taken.

somehow by playing the Chinese version of Disco Elysium I learned that the "Yugo" in "Yugoslavia" means "South," aka the Southern Slavs, because I wondered why they translated "Yugo-Graad" as "South Graad" in Chinese (南格拉德）

Insanely cheap gas? Gas is always $40-80 my entire driving life. Even noticing gas prices is behavior unbecoming of a Made Man.
