Currently reading "One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This" by Omar El Akkad. Going to share on this thread as I read through it for the next 9 days (doing a chapter each day) some of the standout excerpts.
My spiciest take is that if you do war crimes, your body belongs to science after. It does not matter if you are still living. You get to test cancer medicine or whatever now, thems the stakes.
They've pathologized the rest of us into oblivion because we showed suffering. So, their turn, imo.

Still traumatized by the time the internet decided I owned a $400 gaming keyboard (I did not). I felt it was ridiculous to assume any normal person would pay that much for a keyboard. THIS is inconceivable on new levels to me.
just got an ad on ig for a "digital typewriter" that is a like 1998 chunky laptop keyboard with a cute little 5"? e-ink screen for simple distraction free writing, just writing, that is all it does or can do, and chat it costs ONE THOUSAND AND NINETY NINE DOLLARS

Genuinely this is willful negligence on behalf of the NYT.
Nobody:
Absolutely nobody:
The New York Times: "One small town has become the only place for people from 9 states to get abortion services. Also, right wing terrorists threaten to murder abortion workers all the time. Anyway we doxxed a bunch of abortion workers in that town and waived the paywall."

Friendly reminder; if yall dont see people immediately freaking out about their SNAP benefits, its not a lack of urgency or need. Most folks wont see the true impact until the day that their benefits distribute, which most places is actually a few days into the month.

Personally I think it’s appropriate and very fitting America’s true heart to demolish the White House for a ballroom. Doesn’t go far enough, honestly. Tear down the whole fuckin thing and put up an even bigger Vegas Orb. Have unskippable ads play on it. Have Kid Rock play there.
