We live in a world where BY FAR the most common reason to harm or kill another human being is the absolute worst one: because someone told you to. Because it was your job.
Doing harm in self defense (a right of any organism) is legislated & controlled, but on orders is normal. This is twisted af.
Man Who Threw Molotov Cocktail At Sam Altman’s Home Claims He Was Following ChatGPT Recipe For Risotto
This is lunacy.
Fuck him. He normalized JK Rowlings hateful rhetoric as well as lied about & weaponized a trans comedian's suicide to incite harassment against the trans community. Even beyond his BS attempt to say "my jokes are being used to hurt trans people by Republicans, how could I have known?", he's a POS.
The Iran war increasingly looks not only like another shocking humiliation but perhaps the greatest strategic blunder in American military history. trib.al/i3eHAOp
The NYT is just lying to you here.
GW Bush passed the Postal Accountability and Enhancement Act, which, among other things, required USPS to prefund future retiree benefits. That year, before PAEA went into effect, it posted almost a billion in profits.
Its not a business! It’s a public good! And it’s not “running out of money,” either. Republicans deliberately created this illusion by requiring USPS to prefund pensions *75 years* into the future. Literally no other agency (or business, lol) requires this.
Whenever someone says "But if Trump dies then we'll be stuck with JD Vance and he's even more dangerous!" I'll be showing them this graphic. Whatever special sauce Trump has, Vance has the antidote for it.
And coming remarkably close to picking up a goalie goal.💖
Will the head of the sitting administration finally get it through his head that he is not a dictator? For all the weaknesses of the American system, total autocracy is harder under it than it looks.
Why would Iran relinquish control of a strait the US can’t take from it or a nuclear program the US can’t stop? Iran has INCREASED its demands from before the war, because we’ve proven we are incapable of defeating the country in the ways we care about. Maybe the greatest US humiliation in history.
Mariners, trailing 7-2 at the top of the 5th, come back to win in the bottom of the 9th, 8-7. JP Crawford with a walk-off single.
And that's how baseball goes sometimes.
a lawyer told my mom not to press charges cause they’d put me through it on the stand
I was five
I put it off until I was 21, when the "restored" version of The Stand was published. Changed my outlook on him.

Hey, he got someone to write a book on the subject and put his name on it.
The famous Andor line is that "tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle." Here is a perfect example of that through malicious compliance: Idaho forced the city of Boise to remove its Pride flags. So the city painted rainbows everywhere else.
"We’re going to win so much, you’re going to be so sick and tired of winning, you’re going to come to me and go, ‘Please, please, we can’t win anymore.’" ~ Some guy
Silvia Federici is one hundred percent wrong about the witch trials (not even a weak argument: her work is based on utter fantasy) and Caliban and the Witch has done incalculable damage to the discourse around this topic, especially in left-wing circles.
Heard through the ceiling of my apartment tonight:
(cat wailing)
Person: No!!
(cat wails some more)
Person: You do not want that! Spit it out!
(even louder wailing)
Person: That is a potato! You are an obligate carnivore!!

It's impolite to call Musk a genocidal white nationalist because "civility" in American discourse functions not as a neutral procedural norm but as an asymmetric weapon to shield the powerful from accurate moral characterization while policing the tone of those who object.
I mean, it's not a big truck.
Nine tedious innings of zippo, yeah.
The internet wasn't a mistake.
It saved lives. It's allowed community. It's one of the best advancements in modern history for information.
The mistake was normalizing rampant cruelty and dunk culture and protecting predators and harassers over victims.
Priorities.
I mean, 3-1 is 3-1. Just because it's all in one inning, after nine innings of zippo, is neither here nor there.
