Oggi non si festeggiano le donne ma i loro diritti. Non so se è chiaro.

Comrade Trump fast tracking the entire world to communist Chinese solar and batteries to lower CO2 rates faster than previously thought possible.

Unfortunately Starmer will provide the bus, and VDL will gladly drive it

The US so fucking evil and stupid they found a way to make Khameinei a martyr mere weeks after some of the most vicious and bloody repression in his 40 year reign

Sci-fi setting: "this alien race are all men"

Me: "then why bother gendering them at all? Why enforce a human concept of sex on what's meant to be a totally alien species that evolved totally independently of us?"

Sci-fi setting: "this alien race are all women"

Me: "hell yeah dude"

“Is there a technology the left is excited about?”

High-speed rail! MRNA vaccines! New cancer treatments! Solar and wind energy collection! Better and longer-range EVs! That wood that's harder than steel! New apples! Fibermaxxing! Buldak Swicy ramen! Muppets! Muppets are too a technology, shut up!

The left tried for decades to pass green energy subsidies, passed them, the subsidies worked, and now literally the entire planet's electricity grid is going to convert to solar+battery. It just doesn't feel like "tech" because it mostly produces kinda boring blue collar jobs instead of billionaires

worth noting that the second rich people stopped being afraid of mobs tearing them limb from limb, they stopped building libraries and opera houses and stuff and started ripping the copper wiring out of the walls of society instead

I love it when you complain about the price of food and people say "just meal prep 7 days of boiled chicken cubes!!!" because whether it works or not you are advocating for an existence that would have a medieval peasant grabbing their scythe

King: boy those Epstein emails
King: it's really sobering to see how money and power allowed sex predators to operate
Neil Gaiman: hello everyone
Gaiman: i'm back
Barker: oh boy
Barker: oh boy you sure picked a time

There are people that want to abolish economic class and there are people who dont. The people who do are what I consider to be the “left” regardless of the various ways they want to go about it. Everyone else defends the system of owners and workers and they are right wing reactionary freaks

Yes, they pair wonderfully! I wonder how the experience would have been if I read the Guide before Sunshine..

@tkingfisher.com Just finished the Wizards Guide after reading Sunshine and I was wondering.. has Mona been inspired by Sunshine? The way she speaks about bread and dough rang more than a bell!

That's fucking funny as hell and we could all use a good laugh and a solid reminder that these are fragile piss babies who hate each other and themselves

Federal agents were assaulting women: striking them, shoving them to the ground, pepper spraying them.

Alex Pretti acted in solidarity with those women rather than in loyalty to other men who had strength of arms and state power. A betrayal to white supremacist patriarchy he was murdered for.

Extremely funny to realize that the reason Western Europeans are getting mad enough to start chastising random Americans is because they realize that the Faustian bargain they struck after WWII is going sour and the Mongoose they let live in their crawlspace and kill communists has rabies now

I really wish that more of the response to the whole Greenland situation was "Greenland is already colonized and cannot gain anything from its colonial rule being switched from one malevolent racist nation to another."

Kalaallit, Inughuit and Tunumiit should be free, autonomous people.

2024: can Europe defend itself ALONGSIDE America?

2025: can Europe defend itself WITHOUT America?

2026: can Europe defend itself AGAINST America?

What’s happening in the United States has been happening since the “end” of slavery when they introduced, the Vagrancy Act of 1866. They then introduced Sharecropping, followed by the 13th Amendment, this continues today. What we are witnessing isn’t anything new, stop referring to the Gestapo.

I can't trust politicians who are anti-trans. Not because I'm "only searching for perfection" which is what centrists will be accusing me of for the rest of my life, it's because if you're not pro-trans you'll be garbage on lots of other issues too. Being anti-trans NEVER exists in a vacuum.

"Here’s an example that Google’s Josh Woodward, VP of the Gemini app, Google Labs, and AI Studio, shared in a blog post about how Personal Intelligence can work. Google also put together a similar example in a video that I’ve embedded below: For example, we needed new tires for our 2019 Honda minivan two weeks ago. Standing in line at the shop, I realized I didn’t know the tire size. I asked Gemini. These days any chatbot can find these tire specs, but Gemini went further. It suggested different options: one for daily driving and another for all-weather conditions, referencing our family road trips to Oklahoma found in Google Photos. It then neatly pulled ratings and prices for each. As I got to the counter, I needed our license plate. Instead of searching for it or losing my spot in line to walk back to the parking lot, I asked Gemini. It pulled the seven-digit number from a picture in Photos and also helped me identify the van’s specific trim by searching Gmail. Just like that, we were set." https://www.theverge.com/news/861576/google-gemini-ai-personal-intelligence-gmail-search-youtube-photos

Every example of ai being useful begins with "okay imagine you're in a situation, and you are very dumb"

“They need better training” is just the liberal way of wanting nothing to change but also wanting to feel good about nothing changing

people will say “he will not literally post on truth social that this lady runs venezuela now after she gives him the physical nobel peace prize” and I am here to tell you that is absolutely in play and is in fact a likely outcome

Nothing so perfectly proves the concept of whiteness as a social construct than the reality that white people who stand up for minorities forfeit some of the protections that whiteness afforded them.

The scylla of everyone treating every news story like they just started paying attention and acting naive and brand new

The charybdis of pointing out nothing is new and acting jaded and above it to the point of denying new contexts and realities to stay safely embedded in left ideologies

My BiL, casually in conversation: I've had some good conversations with ChatGPT...
Me, Near Hysterical: NO YOU HAVEN'T

Why does North Korea prioritize nukes so much. Strange

A grip of my ancestors came here with nothing. Not even their own bodies. Not even their own tongue. And got us to a point where I am clickity-clacking on a computer relatively safe and comfortable. For now, anyway. And all I owe them for all of that is to never go back.

Also, what a LOT of people who are not black on this side of the planet do not understand is that being a descendant of slaves is not a badge of shame but a badge of honor. Because that freedom was won under impossible odds. An AMAZING accomplishment.
