It’s also not sticking around. There’s no revenue model for it. It WILL shut down when the money hose runs out.
“AI is clearly sticking around so you have to get used to it” wrong. I don’t have to get used to shit. I am a practiced hater and I can keep this going for decades if I am required to

If you haven't read it already, I recommend Alexander Berkman's "The ABC of Anarchism", sometimes published as "Now and After." It's a straight-to-the-point exposition of socialist anarchy and he makes a case for it that one might call "common sense."

trans people and allies have been speaking up, a lot. consistently all polls and data show that anti trans policies and positions are unpopular in comparison to trans inclusive ones.
But you wouldn't know that if you only paid attention to mainstream media sources.

Health Insurance doesn't cover you when you get sick or old or are disabled.
It just covers people who don't use it.

I joined in with the ‘where’s your poppy’ jokes- the poppy police are the worst- but, conversely, don’t let people make you feel you’re doing anything wrong if you do also choose to wear one. Irrespective of what they think it symbolises, fuck them.

You know what would be ideal?
Set up a bullpen for helpers. Little central location in the store. Give them a couch, let them check their phone. Four or five of them, sitting there at all times, so when I need to find something I can KNOW THERE IS SOMEONE TO HELP WHEN AND ONLY WHEN I NEED THEM.

I think it's a completely wrong and poor attempt at combating toxic positivity and fake niceness of influencers and stuff. Like they just go so far in the opposite direction and often are wallowing in some kind of sadness [relatable but oof] so they just... do that and act like that and it sucks.

The New York Times quickly sending out Douthat to argue that Mamdani’s victory doesn’t really matter is so predictable it borders on self-parody.
Remember, folks: Every time the Right wins an election, it’s an undeniable expression of the will of the people. If a lefty wins, it’s just a blip.

Kinnock gave an absolutely brilliant answer that should be learned by heart by every Labour MP. (0.42 to 1.22)
