i don’t really care abt this old vs nu trek debate but this is a v funny thing to say about a franchise which has a literal mirror universe where everyone is Very Evil and also has a moustache
Course those shows had villains. But they were villains that had a degree of dimension and subtlety to them. They weren’t all paint-by-numbers, moustache-twirling, scenery-chewing nutcases with zero motivation for why they are the way they are.

it is so funny we’re back at square one with the streaming services. brief moment of low cost/high budget tv was just the product of another VC cash pit.

its cool that weve reached the point in oral arguments where liberal justices are asking their colleagues whether they will apply the law fairly and theyre just like “oh, no. we plan to contradict ourselves next week. this is all a charade.“

Dude. Yes. Alito and Thomas are of course the standout examples, but all of the Republican justices have tells in their writing and their questioning indicating that they are, to varying degrees, marinating their brains in dumb bitch juice
My theory, fwiw, is that Supreme Court Justices are not immune to Twitter brain poisoning. I suspect all six have horrific information environments and have therefore lost the ability to understand the people who don't agree with them.
The part that I can't figure out is what John Roberts thinks he is doing. He used to seem to be a judge who was very attentive to appearances, I think on a theory that you can't draw too much attention to yourself without undermining your ability to continue to shape the law.

Also, I don't understand how stories can mention Andreessen Horowitz without mentioning that they hired a partner solely on the basis that he strangled a man to death. It seems pertinent when they're trying to stop laws about software that encourages kids to die.

oh hey look it’s the thing literally everyone said would happen
Two months after President Donald Trump signed an executive order restricting H-1B visas, soaring costs are roiling rural health care facilities that have long struggled to find staff.
Rural America relies on foreign doctors. Trump’s visa fee shuts them out.
The Trump administration’s demand for companies to pay a $100,000 fee to hire an immigrant worker using an H1B visa has created turmoil among rural health providers.

It’s very funny to me that countries are trying to pass laws banning teens from social media until they’re older and can “handle it” as if the last decade hasn’t been about watching rich middle aged men nuke their brains on Twitter and then run the USA via shitpost.

I do not think I’d heard the term “gizmo cult” before today but the number of times I’ve seen it this morning makes me think it’s very well established in some circles (the meaning is pretty obvious in today’s context)

some significant part of this is just catch-all fear for “this is not the child I ordered” I think
Oh, here's a big surprise. The transphobes don't believe in ADHD either.
then, the transphobes , feeling victorious at how many people they have made unhappy and despairing in the previous week, move on to anything else that has a spectrum and the possibility of more colours than they can conceive - such hateful people - they cannot understand anything that is not THEM

The depressing part is that Netflix winning would be objectively terrible for viewers and society and yet somehow a successful Paramount bid would be far more terrible
this pretty much guarantees months and months of performative bullshit by Trump and Ellison and right wing media about how Netflix ownership would be a woke antitrust nightmare, but letting Larry and his nepobaby son dominate U.S. media would be a delightful, populist spritzer
It’s a Bidding War: Paramount Attempts Hostile Offer for Warner Bros.
David Ellison calls Netflix's $82.7 billion deal value an "inferior proposal" and tells Warners shareholders that his coalition promises $18 billion more in cash.

Said it before but a good place to say again
There is nothing wrong with virtue signaling any more than there’s anything wrong with dressing well or grooming
I would LIKE people to see I have good morals in the same way as good taste and good hygiene
If that’s performative, fine: perform it well

Apropos Bennett, I think it's long past time for the broad anti-MAGA coalition to reclaim the language of "virtue" which the modern right has rather tellingly abandoned, except to pair with "signaling" as a sneering insult.
