I think that, fundamentally, ending the shutdown without a commitment that congress actually controls how money is spent in this country is Very, Very Bad

but I am being thoroughly polarized away from that position's salience by the monstrous behavior of the sephiroth-posters who want starved kids

how you feel about waymo seems like a good test case to delineate between serious critiques of new tech vs ludditism

I’m just gonna say it: I think there was a whole genre of academic pseudo-activism about how the university itself was conservative/colonial/needed to be abolished etc that was the political equivalent of ZIRP. Like it just feels absurd these days.
granted, i invented this person in my head, but im assuming people who were saying college is itself a corrupt institution filled with authoritarians yesterday are not going to be enthusiastically fighting for the life of the UC system

Many years later, as he faced the editorial board, Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani was to remember that distant afternoon when his father told him to abolish ICE
so I have a lot of complicated thoughts about the specific issue at hand, but I have to point out that’s not what “magical realism” is

the hard truth is, millions of young men in america are addicted to gambling on their phones. if we want to recapture their demographic we must pass legislation that makes it illegal for them to lose at gambling

a fine @cartoonshateher.bsky.social piece as ever, and I'm going to make a tenuous argument that the filming of U.S. 'reality' shows *and* the sitcoms based on them played a big role in convincing people to take obviously staged footage as real.

Context: This Person Literally Set Up a Phone to Film This
All online video content needs to be viewed with an important realization: it wasn't filmed by accident.

why is it that i have to have sympathy for someone who did something, specifically and intentionally, to harm me and the people i love
The article is about a woman who was literally sexually assaulted at age 16, but I'm the abuse enabler for suggesting that there can be value in seeing a 24-year-old from a conservative town who cast an ambivalent Trump vote as a flawed human rather than a Nazi who deserves everything she gets?

people will come on this website and say anything. "Paul Ludwig Hans Anton von Beneckendorff und von Hindenburg was a liberal". no he wasn't. that isn't true.
Yes, they literally did. Hindenburg was a liberal. Every liberal in Germany quietly turned fascist. Only the USSR had ideological differences with the Nazis. You didn't even join the war until you were personally attacked, lib.

If the Democratic leadership in Congress does not want to use democracy, we would like to borrow it for a time.
