Re: speeding and cameras discourse… even if you ignore the many good reasons not to speed, you just can’t make up much time at typical levels of speeding. When I was younger I used to try increasing my normal avg speed by 5-10 mph across a drive when I was late, and it never shaved more than 1-2 min

I have absolutely no sympathy for people who bitch about speed cameras. Drivers in this country are terrible on average, it’s way too easy to get a license, and a ton of people die needlessly as a result. You can just not speed so much! While we’re at it, let’s get really aggressive on phone use too

This is disgusting. The shooter clearly subscribed to a kind of “antizionism” that has a very hard time distinguishing between Israel, Israelis, and Jews in general, and regularly veers into antisemitism (also popular on here). I don’t really care what was in his heart, the attack was antisemitic.

I try to stay away from celebrity news, but I just read up on some of the allegations and testimony in the Diddy trial, and Jeeeeezus

Want to surface this to the main feed. I love the microblog format, but during Trump I the constant unbearable shitstorm of outrage kinda ruined Twitter for me, and I notice the same thing happening now with Bluesky now during Trump II

I am begging people to make sure they understand what “censorious” means before replying to this post. Hint: it does not pertain to censorship!

UMD has always played up the Henson connection, but honestly this is way better than my commencement speaker, which I wanna say was like Steny Hoyer or something and I didn’t go

For the record, this is pretty close to where I’m at, articulated much better than I could do

The argument that a popular front requires not fucking sniping at each other constantly should be uncontroversial, and yet! You don’t need to specify who you think has been a bad partner historically! They feel the same way about you! Either you want a coalition or you don’t. Christ.
