if i saw someone drinking a bottle of sprite with this color liquid my assumption would be that they’re chugging pee. i would think to myself “this poor person is so thirsty they’re drinking jack daniel’s no. 1.” and they’d look quite the fool

something that stands out about this is just how cheap it is for us to have world-leading scientific capacity we spent ~6.75 trillion last year, and the combined budgets for NIH, NSF and NASA are barely more than 1% of that what an incredible waste to lose it all for a drop in the bucket

I have a friend who is an exvangelical and she put it very succinctly: “We don’t believe anyone else is human. You are not people to us.” Once you understand this CORE BELIEF and put it into context with the fact that these folks are running our country you can understand clearly their motivations.

This is expected from apocalypse cult Christians. Non-evangelicals are non-human and they exist only to die. Everyone “perishing from the earth” is the goal! “People are gonna die” is a success for them! “I thought people understood” is the big giveaway. “You didn’t know your death is the plan??”

At least with MMOs people were still interacting with other actual people and forming relationships. Hell, I used to work with a guy who met his wife playing Warcraft.

Whenever I see "AI ethics concerns" it's always crap like "should Claude have a social security number?!" and not "should OpenAI all be in jail for marketing ChatGPT like it's your friend and designing it to prioritize continuous engagement above all else?"

every article about politics in every mainstream publication is flat out lying to you if it does not emphasize that our government has been taken over by freaks and lunatics

reading this new york times article, it occurs to me for the hundredth time that so much of the current upheaval is at root about aging parents who refuse to accept they've hurt and tormented their children into rejecting them as people

"Brooke Nichols, an associate professor of global health at Boston University, has estimated that these cuts have already resulted in about 300,000 deaths, most of them of children, and will most likely lead to significantly more by the end of the year."

NEW: Trump says Elon Musk is 'really not leaving,' and federal workers from six agencies tell WIRED that DOGE work is escalating in their departments as both new and familiar DOGE faces have appeared in meetings and at new offices. read @makenakelly.bsky.social, @zoeschiffer.bsky.social, and me:

Not a fan of drug shaming but I'm glad Trump fascists gave NYT stenographers permission, sources, material, and cover to spread dirt on one of their fellow fascists now that this particular fascist is on the outs.

So, as you might know, I have been in the process of tracking the activities of DOGE staff across the federal government. And now I've built an auto-updating website to browse the data It's not done (lots more content to write), but news is moving fast, so here it is dogetrack.info Enjoy!

I spent over a decade writing about such "common sense" reforms. They engender so much push-back, so much hateful backlash against those trying to support such reforms, and so many lies. And then, they do not work. This is how I got to abolition.

So the folks going after Molly are calling me a Fed now and I'm just wondering what kind of "fed" tells everyone to just run the specifics of what you're doing past a lawyer to make sure you're good

I’ve been frequenting the same Thai joint since they first opened back in 2013, and it somehow only occurred to me last night to get my pad thai with both pork belly and fried tofu instead of choosing one or the other like I normally do.
