We’re teaching the next generation that they require yet another monthly rent payment to a giant tech monopoly just to function in life. Bleak

the cryptosphere has boomer guys scared out of their minds that if they don't swap all of their cash into crypto they will be sht up a creek when all of society, uhh, 'shifts to crypto as sovereign currency'

My dev friends in tech say their companies are quietly starting to hire junior devs again. the ai hype is not meeting reality

The most expensive education in the world, a lifetime of debt. And yet, Americans aren’t good enough! Sunrise is getting scammed

It is rancid

TX polls are dominated by self serving geriatric voters. Almost no one votes here, or even knows there is an election happening half the time. And organizing is very difficult here because everything is obscenely car-dependent and spread out. TX life is isolating.

Texas has a non-voter issue (except for old people). Folks here don’t even know there is an election happening most of the time, or how to even vote. And there is no easy way to organize b/c everything is so spread out and car dependent. TX life is very isolating

Jeans, and Wolf. At Tanagra.

Texas has no political organization. Only 13% voted this year, and most of them are retirees who read these amendments for the first time as they voted. No joke, Texans never know when an election is happening. There is no fanfare or adequate signage, no ground game

The funny thing is: I bet half of Texans don’t even know either state is doing any kind of redistricting, let alone what that would mean politically. Politics is a ghostly phenomenon of nature over here

TX has such low turn out and almost zero political organizing. Folks here barely even know an election is happening more than half the time. Until that changes, Facebook-addicted retirees will continue to dominate from their gated communities.

Translation: Hey old people, we are shoveling poors out of the way so that you have shorter wait times at the doctor and your investments are less likely to get rug pulled eyyyy isn’t it great being the most likely demographic to vote???

A majority of, uhhhh, 13% of the population. (Non-geriatric) normies almost never know when an election takes place here or what’s even on the ballot well over half the time. TX will continue the rentier / monopolist suck-off until the low turnout changes

TX is wild though. Only like 13% turnout today. It’s Gerontocracy 4eva, we are torched over here

I almost always insta block AI slop on my feed without reading anything. Ya’ll can do better than this 😔

amazing piece. Been playing through Tactics Ogre this year!
