I don't recall any previous transformative technologies that had to be sold to the public so hard. No one in 1999 was going, "Guys. Cell phone? It's coming, whether we like it or not. I think it's important, FOR WOMEN ESPECIALLY, to learn about cell phone. So that we're not left behind!!"

Am smoking a cigar. Have another cigar when this is finished.
I can’t wait to also regret watching Hokum soon but it will absolutely not be in theaters
Watched Oddity last night which I liked and would ultimately give a 5/10 on the fear factor scale but Caveat is an 8.5/10. I do not remember the last time I had my jaw clenched this hard for a full 90 minutes and I will never sleep with the lights off again

I can't stop laughing at this post. It's perfect.
The US can automatically register men to go to war but can’t register them to vote.
They can afford billions on war but can’t give their citizens healthcare, housing, childcare or food assistance.
War is profitable.
People are cannon fodder.
It’s exactly how the ruling class wants it.
"The acting director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (Jay Bhattacharya) has delayed publication of a CDC report showing the covid-19 vaccine cut the likelihood of emergency department visits and hospitalizations for healthy adults last winter by about half."

This has been a project of the ruling class in both ruling political parties for decades if not since the birth of this stupid nation. We are doing what we can and also not broadcasting intentions on social media bc of aforementioned technocratic police state. But I'm sure you've got a cool plan
"Why don't Americans-" The ruling class of America has intentionally disempowered its citizens spread across 3,000+ miles of land and then funded the police force as an occupying army that happily murders anyone who opposes them and imprisons whoever is left as slave laborers. So phone calls it is

Let's annotate.
1. Begins with a CLEAR statement laying out WHO the culprit is and what he is doing.
2. Specifically says what he thinks needs to happen next.
3. Calls out his own institution.

My post is cynical in that I am skeptical Congress will act, but the situation is incredibly scary and instead of doing nothing I contacted my rep. You can too. If enough people voice their alarm, maybe they’ll find a spine. This is a world historic crisis.

Oh, wow. So many other worlds visible in the background of the Artemis II view from eclipse, peeking out of the haze of the solar corona. Thanks @tunctezel.bsky.social for labeling!
In Korea, when the president declared martial law after midnight and erected barricades in Seoul, congressional reps from all parties ran into the streets, yanked ak47s from the army at the barricades, broke down the locked door to Congress, repealed the martial law order, and arrested the president
