"goodies" is so fucking condescending
You guys realize that taxing people to pay for services isn't socialism, right? This is just how governments work.

Think of your favorite celebrity, whether they’re an actor, musician, athlete, whatever.
They’re probably pretty well-off, financially. But they are still closer to auctioning off their possessions to cover medical bills than they are to being a billionaire.

Every time I hear the word "tranches" I flash back to listening to planet money on the subway in 2009. Not great!
quite literally everything i hear about the economics of this feels insane, especially given the big issue of the tools not doing what boosters say they will do. so many details make me feel very not good!

Just in: Zohran Mamdani caught calling someone "bro", but our investigation has unearthed the truth. This person was not, in fact, his biological brother. Why did he lie? Tune in tonight at 10 for this and more breaking news.

i just need people to know it's not hypocrisy when Devout Christian Mike Johnson cuts off SNAP benefits. it's not a lack of "christian charity" to make kids starve; it's because the christian right wants to control who gets food, through churches, so they can deny queers and sluts at will

I still don't understand why people think this shit is so amazing. Forget the bizarre scene transitions and cross-dimensional subway platforms. It still can't render legible script that means anything.
Oh my god some fucking tech dingdong posted this on Twitter with the caption "AI games are going to be amazing" totally seriously, you have to watch it. You have to. In full screen.

I think one of the most scandalous things about this new (surprisingly good) John Wayne gacey show is that they just had regular cops--like detectives too--digging up all the bodies in the house. Insane.

This is the first autumn in 5 years without new episodes of #StarTrekLowerDecks.😢 Man, I really miss the show!!! It always made me laugh (I need that now!) and it had the deepest and most outrageous callbacks. Plus: it showed that it IS totally okay to talk about chairs on starships - I feel heard!

Could be adhd/shiny new tool syndrome but I am trying out Obsidian for my years-long novel project based on this set up and I am LOVING IT. Motivation to write is way up! Thanks, Toby!!
Great question, I uploaded an answer to that to my Patreon subscribers, but I opened it up b/c I think they've had exclusivity for a few months and this may be of interest to a wider audience:

No problem, the VP says you can say anything you want when you are a child of under 40 years old.
A Marine veteran turned oyster farmer who is now a rising Democratic Senate candidate once called himself a “communist,” dismissed “all” police as bastards, and said rural White Americans “actually are” racist and stupid, according to deleted social media posts seen by CNN. https://cnn.it/47sXon6

Graham Platner, a Marine veteran turned oyster farmer, now disavows posts he made years ago, saying they came from a time when he felt disillusioned and angry and expressed those emotions online.

I’m not even engaging with the rest of what’s wrong or factually incorrect about this; would he apply this standard to young job applicants to any profession making a cruel joke online about Charlie Kirk’s murder

I feel this exact same way about my cat. We met when he was 2. He was already fully grown. We are best buds and we love each other.
I’ve wondered for a while why calling Milo my son doesn’t feel right to me. Like, lots of people refer to their pets as their kids and I think it’s cute! But Milo… Milo isn’t my child. He’s my friend.
