Under communism, when you paste something into a word document, it will paste without formatting by default.

The repression of trans people is not, by and large, a grassroots outpouring of hatred from the American people. It's something that's been carefully planted and tended over years by a handful of media people and their pet reporters.

The Supreme Court ruled that the Equal Protection Clause does not protect everybody equally. Instead it upheld the Tennessee law that seeks to eradicate trans kids. My latest in @thenation www.thenation.com/article/poli...

honestly i don’t know how we keep a united front together when the center-left prefers a corrupt rapist centrist over a social democrat as mayor

I hope that everyone who thinks that crypto and AI are somehow democratizing technologies that will lead us to the promised land is paying attention. They are instruments of oppression that serve and reify power. Period. They are instruments of the right, not of right. @hypervisible.bsky.social

You do not need answers you cowardly fool. What happened was extremely clear. What you and your colleagues need to do is fight back in every way at your disposal, and then some. Start by promoting immediate impeachment for fascist scum Trump and Noem. Make that the main topic of conversation.

It is really really sinking in for me the degree to which LLMs are the ultimate expression of right wing anti-intellectualism. Its proponents are literally mocking the idea that anyone would ever want to learn anything, know anything, develop any actual skill, or have a thought of their own.

There's a kind of male violence that is often misinterpreted as being in defense of women when it's actually in defense of who has the right to harm women (in a "we do; they don't" mode, see KKK, southern lynching, etc.)

Good point here from Stanley: lack of GOP representation occurs in fields beyond humanities and social science. It's not about universities abandoning the GOP, but the GOP divorcing itself from science.

Me, my dad, and my stepmum are like 85% convinced that we passed Russell Howard in the street in London once. We didn't check because we didn't want to bother him if it was him.

I'm in the minority, and maybe a small one, but I think these administrative stays are genuinely harmful and should not be treated as routine. A federal court has ruled that a dramatic step of national significance was illegal and unconstitutional. It ruled. 1/

I'd say the only upside about Trump deploying Marines to California is that the seldom used 3rd Amendment might finally get its due.

People who say things like "we achieved racial equality through MLK doing peaceful protests" tend to ignore three major facts: 1. We never achieved racial equality. 2. There were literally hundreds of violent race riots in the 60s. 3. They killed MLK. They fucking shot that dude anyway. Come on.

Dude who has never, ever been on the side of any protester in the History of the Earth: "I'll tell you what, some of the actions of these protestors are really making it hard for me to be on their side..."

i know it's just advertisement but it still pisses me off when tech CEOs claim AGI will solve humanity's problems with its vast intelligence. for a lot of problems we already know the solutions, what prevents them being solved is not a lack of intelligence, but that the solutions are unprofitable
