Maybe our real values were the ones we lived along the way.
This is one of the reasons I think we should have UBI!!!!
Also good transit so we can take away licenses from those who shouldn’t drive.

Like, I’m pissed at Apple for a bunch of things but I’m pretty embedded in the ecosystem, and will be for a while.
But…the next time I get a computer, it’s gonna be Linux.

There's a link between the AI disruption and the authoritarian political attacks on expertise. Highly educated white collar folks considered ourselves to be a powerful culture, on the basis of our expertise & credentials. But that's not where power comes from, and we're learning that the hard way.
All I'm saying here is that there's a strong air from white collar people like we're not supposed to be disrupted. That's for blue collar folks. But we're not special. We never have been. Just lucky. And eventually your luck runs out. Capitalism comes for everybody eventually.

Feeding your ex to the wolves, (by tossing a mouse in their name), this is an idea whose time has come! This works really well for bosses and ex bosses!

Moderna reportedly spent *750 million dollars* on the study for this vaccine, so it now appears that MAHA might be Fucking With the Money, of Big Pharma no less, so it'll be interesting to see how it all works out (as we sicken and die of preventable disease)

I will admit I'm hot-headed about tech worker issues, so I'l try to be more even-handed in articulating this: Think of the genuine, real grief we feel because of the decimation our good, valued friends in journalism have been enduring over recent years. We know they're victims of heartless tycoons.

New York City: The time has arrived. Finally, a chance to tell the city EXACTLY what your landlord’s been getting away with. NYC’s first Rental Ripoff Hearings are happening in all five boroughs, and we want to hear from you. Real New Yorkers. Real stories. Real policy changes.

It is deeply weird to me that they don’t understand this BUT ALSO they don’t understand the NFL hiring the biggest streamer in the world bc the NFL does want to make money.

(I mean, of course I understand it; it’s just funny.)
America is learning the hard way that "we make a lot of money together, you benefit from trade with us" does not actually equal "we own you and you must be subservient," and that countries will forgo some money to preserve sovereignty.
Today's corrupt, self-interested US leaders don't get that.

When done with the zesting, I’m juicing the oranges. I don’t have a juicer big enough, but cutting them into fourths works well enough. I’m not sure what I’ll be doing with it!

To be clear, I’m assuming blood oranges will work with the same technique (as long as I figure out the sugar). I guess I will find out!
