fox just had a banner referring to mamdani's planned grocery store as "trader zo's," and one must admit that's a good bit
This is fucking incredible.
gonna add the wag because it's good
sometimes you just need to have absurdly easy moral standards that you don't budge on like "don't use uber because taxi drivers are union" and "no nazi frog emotes in chat" but they're worth it even if seemingly nobody else thinks they're important
ignoring claudeโs minority report and letting grok push the button to vaporize a single mother for predicted jaywalking
12TH CENTURY FRENCH REDNECK LOOKING AT A CATAPULT ABOUT TO INVENT THE TREBUCHET: yโall ever put a rope on that thing
Yes. They are justified in that schadenfreude, also some of the info that's come out through the leak of Anthropics codebase has shown that Anthropic deliberately attempts to circumvent and mask pushing AI code into OS projects, that doesn't allow AI code. Which can cause problems in the future.
Welp
What if I told you that the technologists were the awful people all along?
Enjoying the last few nights with the kids for awhile
I love how effortlessly Republicans categorize anything they need to at any time. Religion is not political today. Tomorrow, religion and politics are inseparable.
Insurance companies can often be aggressive with their denials because โthey donโt expect people to come back,โ one health care advocate said.
The lesson is simple, another expert told us: โAppeal, appeal, appeal, appeal. Thatโs all you have.โ
This is everything I hate about the legal profession in one news story.
Kavanaugh is was credibly accused of sexual assault and wrote the legal justification for enormous suffering.
But in our profession, the real crime is that Sotomayor was a tad rude to him.

i feel like combining all of these is bad
Anyway, buy books! Maybe even mine! That buck you toss at someone on itch makes a big difference.
If you canโt buy, suggest to your library before the funding cataclysm gets worse.
And support the heck out of libraries at the time where everyone tries to shred their budgets.
Donโt let me forget! The adhd is fucking real.
I don't think it's coincidental that places with intergenerational history of objectifying and dehumanizing human beings, would continue to be implicated and cling to the husk of that trafficking industry. And it would come after plantations and "cotton" pagentry economy.
Society is more angry at a handful of trans people competing in sports or using the bathroom than 62 million cishet men in an online rape academy.
There are more cis men visiting that rape website than there are trans people on this planet.
Maybe once my kids are situated Iโll just live on shul grounds and study Torah
Forgive the shameless self-promotion, but I discussed that very same issue in Halachic Leftโs Pesach reader:

The Holocaust was not a moral lesson to make victims better and more ennobled as humans. I do not think that the behavior of Israel's government or military is in any way morally acceptable, but the idea that they should "know better" because of Nazism is placing an unrealistic burden of trauma.
"If people did learn from history, history would be very different... If one blames the Jew for not having been ennobled by oppression, one is not indicting the single figure of the Jew but the entire human race... I know that my own oppression did not ennoble me." - James Baldwin
when will y'all learn ๐
Iโve complained about this consistently, but we really do need to do something about white people using 23andMes to wake up different cultures & ethnicities they have zero ties to. Hypodescent is weird and your 23andMe is not at all comparable to actually being multiracial or hell even multiethnic
I think this is factual. Political phenomena aren't eternal, they are products of their historical and material contexts. The absence/weakening of anti-zionism in the Diaspora and the West in general after '45 was due to the historical context.
Sorry did somebody think the military was going to intervene?
Ok I see now I think. I think I have more to say than I can right now because of life but I also think antisemitism didnโt begin or end with Israelโฆ obviously. Itโs not eternal but 2500 years of it culminating in shoah wonโt be undone by less than 100 of โstatehoodโ, where the state isโฆ selective.
Oh I see, the article about how Klein is wrong?
Wrong still but better
