Gonna spend the next two years spamming every elected Dem about the concept of "damnatio memoriae." Chisel his name off every inscription. Build over the various Trump Towers like they're Nero's Golden House. Remove him from physical memory, not to forget but as a sign of disrespect to the man.

So ICE is helping with security, the train is $150 and FIFA won’t allow access to the parking lot, and walking to MetLife is illegal/dangerous — and if people decide to walk an hour anyway, it will be like 85 degrees with 70% humidity. Sounds like a World Cup for the books!

A couple points on this manifesto, apart from the racial superiority subtext others noted.

Palantir is a company built on public contracts, they bill the state billions to surveil and target the state's population. The manifesto exists to justify their demand for even more.

I love your choice of phrasing! "Oh no... Aphids... White spots... Bitcoin..."

Well…yes…

You really ought to narrow that down. I don't worship Shiva.

My wife was almost killed yesterday by a pickup truck driver swerving at full gas inches from her, around another car who stopped to let us cross in a crosswalk. All while blasting his horn. So I really don't have any patience today for this "bikes don't follow the rules" bullshit.

get mad or get fucked, those are in fact your two options

She needs to travel more.

That sports bra thing? Keeps women in hot climates from jogging. Keeps them from gyms. Keeps them from getting strong. Also this is your reminder to lift heavy; you can’t get bulky by accident or quickly. Advice that tells women not to lift weights is about keeping women weak.

Full offense: this article is superficial, almost intentionally dense, and a waste of your time to read. The author makes a huge argument for nostalgia, but it's not about nostalgia: it's about ownership, personal control, and freedom from surveillance and data gathering.

Thinking about the 62 million views, and then thinking about how marital rape was only made illegal in all 50 US states in the summer of 1993.

I can remember 1993. I can remember what was on the radio at the time. I had just been in my first movie. It was not so long ago.

My fingers are crossed for Ahmed Shihab-Eldin, who appears to have been detained merely for reposting news about the Iran war.

Say what you will about Songbirds & Snakes - it’s spectacular at unreliable narrator and is upsetting as hell for it. Meanwhile on Threads people are saying it wasn’t edited well because characters say things at odds with what they’ve done. Hello, literacy crisis. I cannot!
