Trump does NOT inhabit the place we all call reality. He inhabits a place where he IS the universe. He NEVER looks or sees beyond himself. Peace is NOT his end goal. It's a pathway to a Nobel Peace Prize, which he craves as a parasite. He is pathologically aberrant and neurologically deteriorating.

Dress it up in progressive language but you're cheating yourself by not doing the work. This is the worst thing about AI: millions of students refusing to learn, taking zero interest in the world around them, empty in mind and heart. Your punishment is the person you will become.

New research from MIT found that those who used ChatGPT can’t remember any of the content of their essays. Key takeaway: the product doesn’t suffer, but the process does. And when it comes to essays, the process is how they learn. arxiv.org/pdf/2506.088...

Reproductive "farming" of women is also part of the broligarchs' colonialist enterprise. This isn't "harem drama:" the exploitation of women's reproductive capacity as a natural resource comes from the same place and project as the exploitation of a territory's minerals and oil.

There is in fact no way to make a case for a moral or political obligation to have children that does not degrade the status and dignity of women by claiming ownership their bodies as instruments for collective use.

American women couldn't get a mortgage, a bank account, or a business loan in their own name until 1974. Single + married women had no right to birth control until 1971. Entire generations of women were lost because they didn't have the legal right to control their own money or their own body.

Whatever else happens in the days ahead it's important to understand that tonight, here and now, Elon Musk ate a spectacular amount of shit. Humiliating. Face completely full of shit. Caked on his face, seeping into his pores, a kabuki mask of feces leaking into his mouth. He ate so much shit here

This has been empirically demonstrated many times! You can’t expect men to have a place of domination and superiority over women in the home and treat women as equals outside of it.

Those who seek to dominate require their victims to resist (and have their resistance overcome) to complete the drama of their own power. So submission does not actually appease the autocrats: They will make greater and greater demands until they either extract resistance or destroy their target.

The crisis is less “is Elon Musk the president” — whatever — than the reality that the United States functionally has no one in the role. Trump heads a syndicate of plunderers inside the institutional remnants of the U.S. government — but has in no sense carried out the duties of his office.

“I am a king and my will is law” isn’t a clever distraction from what he’s doing, it’s the central underlying justification for everything he’s doing.

The way to understand the hysteria over "woke" is through the lens of Ignazio Silone's famous description of fascism as "a counter-revolution against a revolution that never took place." Reactionary forces always begin by conjuring a looming leftist threat. threadreaderapp.com/thread/16865...

I'm not a legal scholar, but the Wurman/Barnett op-ed reveals a pathology I see in certain segments of academic philosophy as well - a prioritization of intellectual gamesmanship, of who can make the "cleverest" arguments using sources in bizarre ways, totally forgetting about real people's lives.
