Interesting take. Andrew Deck does a good job in unpacking how AI is breaking society to enrich a tiny few.

I know there’s a huge list to do in 27 and 29, but figuring out how to extract assets from big oil to clean up the mess that they’re going to leave as fossil fuels phase out in favor of renewables plus storage is high on the list.

Recently started biking for real, and holy f-ck - the cars.

I swear to absolute fucking God. The cars man. I've never in my 30+ year life seen so many stupid fucking idiots in traffic. Blind motherfuckers. They are making my blood boil.

  
Today someone decided it was a great time to make a U-turn in the middle of the street. I kept distance but the car was jerking and was indecisive and just stopped forcing me to go right on the curb making me fall head over the handle bar and crash. Not a care in the world the driver just looked at me and drove off.

  
Never in my life have I seen so many stupid people that can't drive. And I've had a drivers license for over 20 years soon.

A common thread among newer cyclists is realizing just how awful drivers are. There are things you simply don't notice — behavior that has been normalized — when you mostly drive. Biking, walking, or rolling through the world changes that.

Congratulations, Virginia! Republicans are trying to tilt the midterm elections in their favor, but they haven’t done it yet. Thanks for showing us what it looks like to stand up for our democracy and fight back.

Figuring out how to unwind fossil fuels before the companies put all their liabilities into shell companies that become the people’s problems is crucial.

Mayor Mamdani and a group of children hold hands while running through red tape in a hallway.

For too long, bureaucracy kept 7 child care centers across our city empty — spaces that should have been alive with laughter instead collected dust.

We've run through that red tape. This fall, all 7 will open their doors, bringing an additional 240 free 3-K seats & real relief to working families.

In February 1777, General George Washington ordered the first mass immunization campaign in American history by mandating that his troops be inoculated against smallpox. He protected the Continental Army from an epidemic that was deadlier than British forces.

249 years later, we have this idiot.

Hey, Gen X, let's annoy everyone and bring back "choice" as a term of approval.

Nixon normalized asshole, Ford promised rich assholes they would never face consequences, and once legal impunity for rich assholes was a given, there was no reason for private assholes not to come out of the woodwork and become public assholes.

The Soviet Union did show that centrally planned markets don’t work.

But the American experience from 1945-1970 shows that restrictions on the accumulation of wealth at the top end are the way to lift all boats.

Trickle down don’t.

So, every dollar of tax avoidance goes to make GOP cronies richer.

Every dollar the company makes by underpaying its employees goes to make GOP cronies richer

Every dollar the company makes by using unsafe and decrepit equipment …

Every dollar in cutting environmental corners…

every dollar of income a company gets can either go to
1. Wages to labor
2. Reinvestment in equipment, etc used by the company
3. Taxes
4. Everything else*, which is either kept in cash by the company, used to pay dividends, or used to buy back shares

I will pick a smol nit with Adam - at one point he says that the GOP cronies can get as rich as they want and it doesn’t affect the rest of us.

Except it does affect us

Yet again I remind everyone (as Elizabeth does in her very next tweet) that "foreigners are corrupting our pure blood with weakness & disease" is Fascism 101. Not some variant, not some metaphorically similar thing, not some echo -- the thing itself.
