Remember, who you vote for is private, but whether you vote is public information. Records show you voted in 2024. This Tuesday is Election Day in NYC, so vote if you haven't already! -NextVote Stop to End

Searching for a specific Recorded Books title published in the 1980s that includes the keywords "patriots" and "revolutionary war" is challenging. Many of the most well-known audiobooks with these keywords, such as A Patriot's History of the United States and Bill O'Reilly's Legends and Lies: The Patriots, were released in the 2000s or later.

the aside about butler's research in @annamerlan.bsky.social's interview with tracee worley is real nice www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
black serif font on white background reades: “She read voraciously,” Worley says. Butler haunted the Los Angeles public library and ventured across disciplines. In her files, Worley found Butler’s meticulous research, neatly marked, from a dizzying number of fields. She lists some of the files she’s found: “Medicine-physical health, medicine-mental health, personality, cancer, molecular biology, twins and other multiples, ob-gyn, blindness, psychology, biomedical sciences, cults, cults and religion, Black people and Latinos.” black serif font on white background reads: For the Parable series, Worley says, “She was tracking newspaper articles and I’m assuming books as well about climate change and political corruption and gated communities. She annotated these things. She looked for patterns between them. She looked at immigration.” Worley describes getting the “chills” when she reached the notecard on immigrants, which described the ways they would be made into scapegoats.

from speculative whiteness: science fiction and the alt-right.

you can read the whole thing online: manifold.umn.edu/read/specula...
Nevertheless, mutants and other “pariah elites” possess an ideological flexibility that makes them useful for the far right. Mutational romances often characterize democracy as a tyranny of the majority that oppresses the exceptional individuals who are immune to “mass emotions,” “crowd loyalties,” and “herd influences.” Paradoxically they hint that mutants are most fit to rule the masses precisely because they are anti-totalitarian. This move gives reactionaries a pretext to claim liberty, toleration, and progress in the name of an authoritarian political program. When mutants embark on a quest for world domination as in Slan, it is to save themselves from the normal humans who want to restrict them from realizing their true potentials. Mutant freedom proves incompatible with baseline democracy. Perhaps for these reasons Star Trek would later reject the mutant figure as antithetical to Starfleet’s political principles in the 1967 episode “Space Seed.” In it, the crew of the starship Enterprise clashes with the cryogenically revived superhuman dictator Khan Noonien Singh, played by Ricardo Montalbán, who along with his master race ruled over much of Earth during the Eugenics Wars that took place centuries earlier. Khan—who is sexy and aristocratic, styling himself as Milton’s Satan—represents an enticing but ultimately rejected alternative to the crew’s socialist values. Unsurprisingly, then, Khan is the only Star Trek character beloved by Richard Spencer. He glosses over the villain’s mixed racial heritage, presenting him as a Nietzschean superman whose Aryan spirit allows him to stand against the Jewish and Marxist egalitarianism embodied in Mr. Spock. 49

black text on white background that reads: ROOSE So these are some of the amazing and wonderful things that today’s A.I. systems are capable of. But we should also say there are limitations that still remain. NEWTON That’s right. If you don’t pay close attention to them, they tend to be bad at certain common-sense things. For technical reasons, they don’t have great memories yet; they’re not amazing at long-term planning. Also, they’re not always aligned with human values: They might lie or cheat or steal to get what they want.
