I THINK they’re mad because of the hardscaping? Not entirely sure.
(One guy tried to claim it didn’t store CO2. Do you want a lecture on prairie carbon sequestration? Because this is how you get a lecture on prairie carbon sequestration.)

A very important thread. When I was probably no more than 10, I saw this picture of the woman known as Harlow in the Philly Inquirer. A little babygay, I was shocked that such a glamour queen could live in my hometown and even more shocked to see her described as "a former man."

the reason its bad to run universities like businesses is that almost all businesses fail on any reasonable timeline of evaluation.

They claim financial exigency, but then turn down $4 million pledges to keep the PhD programs open and disregard financial analyses that point to the real problem—bad real estate deals, spending on consultants, and their own salaries 2/2

A massive problem today is the uneven distribution of shame. Some of us are running dedicated on-site shame servers 24/7 while others have no access to shame at all, even though they desperately need it. What we need to do is put shame in the cloud

WELL NOW, would you look at that? A massive, 24-YEAR-LONG study of MORE THAN 1.2 MILLION people in Denmark found NO LINK between aluminum in childhood vaccines and autism, asthma, OR chronic disorders.
Aluminum is an ADJUVANT.
It ENHANCES your immune response to a vaccine.
That’s it.

But in reality, we're all disabled. Maybe you're in a moment of respite from it, or in that brief window before the truth of the inevitability of it has been revealed to you (sorry, spoiler warning!), but it's true for all of us — even when it's not visible. So we must default to accommodation.

i recently gained access to the last Cray supercomputer owned by the CIA. Last used at Langley to calculate the solubility of LSD in coffee, I fed 10 years of posts into this profoundly evil machine. it produced a map of internet discourse hell designed to make any who gaze upon it go mad with rage

A clarity of thought seemed pervasive through the crowd, not from training together or even knowing each other. I think it was having a shared goal that is inherently disruptive (block ICE) that made the steps to that end collectively understood and embraced.

It is odd to me that, like, you'd think it'd be parody if you said: to be clear, they only like the bad bits of Western Civilisation -- but that turns out to be true. They like the rapacious imperial murder, but not the art or intellectual achievements or civil liberties, etc.
i mean what are these "western values" these guys are so hopped up about? they are directly antagonistic to western europe. they don't believe in civil liberties. they reject democracy. and don't get me started on christianity, they hate their white neighbors almost as much as the brown ones

As always when I post about being trans, a reminder: if you support me because I'm "normal" or "reasonable" or whatever because I dress like an old man & go to church, but you don't support all my trans siblings, then you don't actually support me at all, & I encourage you to do some soul searching.
