just like hand them a piece of paper that says "no, i'm going to". i dunno. get 12 friends and put a wig on.
MS NOW: "I'm just getting something handed to me -- a statement from DHS -- that it will investigate the fatal shooting of a 37-year-old protester by its officers rather than the FBI. So they're gonna be investigating that which they already issued a summary about. It would seem like a closed book."

at some point i hope the narrative finally starts being "oh these nazis broke every law in order to subvert our elections" instead of "this is the fault of brown people and leftists who exercised their right to vote in a way i don't personally like".
i am so fucking tired of the second one.

This thread gave me a boost of hope I really needed this week
Last term I tried an experiment: I walked into my Tech and Design Ethics class, admitted that I had *no idea* what to do about ChatGPT - so I would let them figure it out.
As in: their first project was to decide and write the ChatGPT policy for the class.

i don't always know how to vibe with people who are like [i have awoken to the evils of the empire within which i live] and [we must solve them by unquestioningly supporting the second most racist empire party]. that's a very narrow line to walk.

bluesky's blocking policies lead to some funny situations where there will be some drama going on and you'll see a post you aren't allowed to respond to which is quote-responding to a post you see as blocked.
would probably be better just to not see any part of that?

i watch catan analysis videos sometimes and players will deliberately make optically bad plays to reduce the chance that their opponents rob from them on a 7, even in like, some of the strongest tournaments in the world, and it hurts me so much every time.

some us politics arguments:
$10 and -$10 are closer together than -$10 and $0, because they're both two digits and both divisible by 10.
since we currently have -$10, adding $10 or $0 will have the same result.
it is greedy and impractical to want more than $0.

yeah they've gotten through dehumanizing all the non-white people (the US was largely there before this started) so now they're hitting white people from the weak angles. started with trans whites and leftist whites, now dialing up to gay whites and white women.
very open about it all tbh.

It's so wild how "white" is an epithet the right is now okay with using, as long as they can pair it with "woman"

In case you’re wondering whether the pro-ICE reactions to Renee Nicole Good’s murder are natural, here’s a comment that was just left on my video. My video about anti-transgender bias at the BBC. I haven’t made a video about Good yet.
