I see pieces like this a lot, often w/ a spin of lamenting cultural degeneration, but reading is a LABOR issue, it’s declined because so many people are working overtime or two jobs & employers expect after hours work. France has Earth’s highest reading rate b/c long lunch breaks & labor protections

The classic argument is "well if Commander Data is a person why isn't ChatGPT", which is a fair argument. However Data has drives and personal agency. He asks about things unprompted. If you leave him in a room he explore it. He manipulates his environment to understand it. He has specific interests

I reiterate: every single person, regardless of the year they were born, has to make a conscious effort not to shit on the following generations the moment they realize they themselves are approaching middle age or older. It’s not just boomers and X that are susceptible.

Everyone in EU, UK or any US state with ID laws on the books [or even ones without them] should contact their representatives and mention this data breach specifically and [link the article if emailed]

Show them the actual, tangible results of all this digshit online ID legislation

In a brilliant tactical move, Speaker Mike Johnson is announcing that the weasels who make up the Republican caucus will be spending the upcoming week in their districts where I'm sure they'll be very happy to hear from constituents about the government shutdown Republicans caused.
Reopening the government isn’t a Republican priority.

Protecting Trump from the release of the Epstein files is.

- We need cheaper printed black and white comics for the love of god
- Comics for adults could do crazy numbers if they actually had support, pubs are leaving money on the table
- Prose authors shouldn't be hired to write comics based on prose chops alone
- Cartoonists should be paid 700x more
Anyone have a particularly hot comic take?

Unanimous First Circuit takes pains to emphasize that this was an incredibly easy case to decide, despite writing a very long opinion knocking down every ridiculous argument the Trump admin made.

“Fuck them kids.”

That’s literally what an ICE agent said when ICE, the FBI et al. raided an apartment in Chicago, including with a Blackhawk helicopter, separated children from their parents, and zip-tied them to each other.

You may have heard my arguments against the Electoral College before. Here’s a new one the Founders never anticipated:

John Candy doc I'm all in. Underrated performer. Think he got pigeonholed as the "funny fat guy" back in the day but the man was a beast. Whenever his slapstick movies called for a touching moment with depth he hit that shit out of the park too
