Fuck yeah

V cool that Trump started the redistricting fight and Iran war and in doing so ushered in a lock for dem house and a global pivot to solar. Please Mr Trump do healthcare next.

35 years is a long fucking time…

“There but for the Grace of God…” but for fascism

That would be great

THANK YOU

i very rarely feel validated by my online experience. If anything, it feels increasingly isolating.

When I was younger I thought everyone should wear the same grey jumpsuits so that our clothes wouldn’t play into class or distract from natural beauty.

I was into substances.

Lifetime single issue healthcare voter here and I would back the CEO of Aetna for POTUS if they vowed to destroy this shit.

Opening text of a thread by Palantir from X Because we get asked a lot. The Technological Republic, in brief. 1. Silicon Valley owes a moral debt to the country that made its rise possible. The engineering elite of Silicon Valley has an affirmative obligation to participate in the defense of the nation. 2. We must rebel against the tyranny of the apps. Is the iPhone our greatest creative if not crowning achievement as a civilization? The object has changed our lives, but it may also now be limiting and constraining our sense of the possible. 3. Free email is not enough. The decadence of a culture or civilization, and indeed its ruling class, will be forgiven only if that culture is capable of delivering economic growth and security for the public. 4. The limits of soft power, of soaring rhetoric alone, have been exposed. The ability of free and democratic societies to prevail requires something more than moral appeal. It requires hard power, and hard power in this century will be built on software.

Palantir put out a 22-point summary of their CEO's book The Technological Republic. It's pitched as a defence of the West, but if you read it through the VDA framework, verification, deliberation, accountability, what it's actually doing looks rather different.

seriously though, the next Dem trifecta needs to ban podcasts.

the next Dem trifecta should shut down MORE rural hospitals, land doesn’t vote and it doesn‘t get sick either!

the next dem trifecta should make income taxes proportional to population density- lower density, higher taxes oughta teach those poors how to care about bigger issues than their own paranoid fantasies about being left behind

in the next trifecta every Dem Senator should be able to fill their harem, sorry, polycule… from the poorest rural community colleges

I will never understand the impulses at work.

By that rubric, Madonna most definitely could though… it‘s a different crowd, but they’d fight all the cops for her.

He has assured many committees that he hasn’t said anything bad about vaccines ever though, even if you have recordings or court transcripts or video or old newspa….

I would 1000% take shutting half of everything down and paying people without the background hum of illness and death and I‘m pretty sure that’s totally normal.
People would probably enjoy work-optional utopia, and undoing our social expectations might freak some out.

… and, like, I’m antisocial man… I am bad with people, but being UNABLE to go out in the world only showed me how much my antisocial tendencies are due to burnout and not some inherent lonerism.

Yeah, I think your own experience here might be coloring things for you man. Vulnerable populations weren’t happy about isolation, there were grandpas hugging kids through fucking tarps… I was glad to have said superdole so I could take care of my mom and my daughter. I liked the SAFETY of the net.

The way the media refuses to lay the present reality at the feet of Trump is pretty incredible considering the treatment Biden got.

access journalism has rotted it all to the core

RFKJR is so fucking evil

He thinks the Meme Wars were actual wars and that people care or know about them. He is a grown man.

and the hits keep coming

i could see him getting 50/50 but for his line of work.

Fuck yeah

both sides man, both sides lol

I think that a lot *on here*
