whenever you think a liberal arts education will magically fix people, remember that all the shitty British elites had the very best of that schooling

It’s weird when people have fights on this site that should have been in a group chat.

lmao Garry Tan is over on Threads trying to run the SF playbook on Mamdani, wondering why the VCs weren’t able to undermine politicians here and purchase an election in NYC like they did in San Francisco. How long until he starts leveling death threats at our politicians?

Ava Cordero was 16 when Jeffrey Epstein sexually assaulted her.
When she came forward in 2007, the New York Post outed her, mocked her identity, and called her a liar.
If she had been believed, over a thousand victims might have been spared.

MAHA is obsessed with ivermectin for the same reason creationists are stuck on peppered moths.
They think if they can be right about just this one thing it proves that "the establishment" as a whole is wrong and corrupt.

people think being smart is a passive state where your assumptions are always right. But really it's having the discipline to always check those assumptions

It really annoys me that the moral panic over e-bikes obscures the incredible impact they have had for disabled people.
This. For the disabled they are a vital tool, and without mine, I am housebound. The inherent ableism infuriates me, especially since I am a careful rider. In every incident I have been in, and there are very few, I was the victim not the cause. Every time.

Sure this can happen in the bisexual socialist paradise of Iberville Parish Louisiana but what about Real America?
This looks to be an extraordinary overperformance for Dems. With more than three-fourth of the vote in, the Dem leads by more than 20%.

I have told a few MPs this. I genuinely feel a lot of adults hate the existence and needs of young people. Then they act surprised/bewildered that these kids are anxious/depressed.
Kids can't hang out in parks. They can't hang out at the mall. They don't have 3rd spaces because no one wants kids around and then we are surprised when they rely on SM for connection.
If you take that away, what do they have left?

This train of thought cannot exist if you actually consider the targets of this hatred as actual human beings.
Hate-filled fake videos about London are everywhere. We've obtained a recording of a TikToker confessing to secretly filming Londoners in their homes for clicks.
He says it's not political. He just wants to make money from far-right anger.
Read what he says: www.londoncentric.media/p/london-tik...

the capitalist push for infinite exponential growth was never going to work, but it especially won't work when they've squeezed all the money out of people
BREAKING: The Nebraska Legislature has approved a bill lowering Nebraska’s minimum wage from $15 an hour to $13.50 for young workers, and slowing down minimum wage increases for others.
