Just walk out! You can leave!
tonight while recording a guest spot on a podcast i experienced an unacceptable level of disrespect from one of the hosts. so i decided to do what felt right for me and i left. i didn’t need to stick around to show i’m “tough” or “thick skinned.” i reminded myself that no one is owed my time.

It's wild to me that we are continuing to greenlight data centers knowing full well that the grid is not able to handle them, esspcially in states like California with documented grid reliability and safety issues.
Data centers for AI could nearly triple San Jose's energy use. Who foots the bill?
AI’s planned data-center boom is straining California’s grid forecasts and raising fears that customers could pay for upgrades if projects never materialize.

feel like it should be a bigger story that the global war on terrorism is being replaced with a domestic war on terrorism

Law school cost me $190,000.

I have paid $206,000 since graduation.

I now owe $223,000.

I pay $830 per month, and next year it will be more.

I genuinely believe law school student loans are designed to make pro bono representation impossible.

I'm also going to just flat-out say it: if humans can't even reliably use selective breeding on DOGS and get the same outcomes or even the desired outcomes within the same litter, all those eugenics companies are offering is fraud to mollify generational paranoia.
This is the exact same impulse that motivates those nasty embryo eugenic companies and that Adrienne Asch argued so well against. Another form of cop mindset, imo

I dont know how you see something like this and have anything but contempt and willful anger for this system.
The way student loans are meant to limit your options in general is truly unhinged. I have fully paid off the amount I took out twice and still owe more than I took out.

we all got cowed into avoiding "virtue signaling" as if the public affirmation of socially agreed upon ethical principles was somehow cringey instead of a significant part of what a "society" even is. now all there's left is vice signaling, and it's reshaping society.

New York City went 12 days without a murder in November / December. That's tied for the longest stretch in history, according to the NYPD. As someone who was here when there were 6+ murders per day in this town, it continues to amaze me how safe the place is.

One of the biggest things we are going to need to do in America 2.0 is resurrect the WPA because there is so much work to do and so much of the budget is going to need to go towards paying people well to do that work and do it to the highest possible standard

Yes, we have to resist — but we can’t live in panic 24/7.
My friend Gina’s rule: 15 minutes fighting fascism, 15 hours seeking joy.

Joy is an act of resistance.
Refuse to let them take that from you.
Do something today that makes you feel alive.
