Honestly if money were made unnecessary to live we would almost certainly be getting more art out of people, not less, let's make money superfluous to existence and find out
“if money was abolished would you still make content?” is the most insane AI bullshit i have ever heard in my life

My husband is reading a really interesting book about activist burn out, and basically every chapter that looks at specific historical activists shows that being unable to acknowledge even minor victories leads to burn out and depression.
I think some people are afraid of good news because they think it inevitably leads to complacency. like any hint of good must mean there is no need for Better. but…endless bad news doesn’t lead to Better either. it leads to exhaustion.

The first indication that technology was going to be some bullshit was when cereal stopped having prizes and instead told us to register on a website for a free screensaver or some shit. We could have fought back and stopped it there like Skynet.

the other thing to remember, is that when people point to ornate Victorians and say “why can’t we build those?” they are forgetting that those were the homes for the rich! ordinary people lived in standardized homes that were often in bad shape and didn’t survive the century.

This is a level of evil that I find genuinely difficult to contemplate
Radical Israeli settlers have expanded their attacks on aid trucks passing through the West Bank this month, blocking food from reaching Gaza as humanitarian groups warn that the enclave is sinking deeper into famine.
Far-right Israeli settlers step up attacks on aid trucks bound for Gaza
The settler groups use a web of publicly accessible WhatsApp groups to track the trucks and coordinate attacks, providing a window into their activities.
