We had the technology to google “what temp is done for turkey” before we had AI.
The idea that we need AI to tell us how to cook a turkey because we don’t want to ask other humans ignores the many millenia of people finding ways to give each other answers without asking someone they know.

the whole point of having a minimum wage is for that wage to be enough for a full-time worker to support themselves and their family. yes, this includes the person who works at the convenience store and the person making your coffee. this shouldn’t be a radical take.

It’s abhorrent that a country as wealthy as America doesn’t guarantee healthcare for all.
If you have an accident or illness in most developed nations… you’re cared for. No questions asked. No money or insurance needed

The thing about government shutdowns is that they're manufactured things that never need to happen.
They're bullshit that adversely affects the lives of normal people because politicians love posturing.

Buried in the Big Beautiful Bill were changes to food assistance that demanded “any future change be cost-neutral. Translation: no more benefit increases, even if food prices skyrocket.”

i am so, so tired of the concept of a "perfectely serviceable" localization. we, as a society, should stop settling for "well, it's understandable so it's good enough" when the bar could be so, so much higher.
