immigrants score the lowest on tests, but they also take all our jobs, while at the same time taking all the welfare and buying all the homes
Stephen Miller: "If you subtract immigration out of test scores, all of the sudden our test scores skyrocket"

Maybe the only good thing AI has done for me is make me realize how deeply I need to get back into reading, tactile hobbies, and whatever other practices help me get offline.
“Why are folks getting dumber?” Because they don’t read. “Why aren’t men as romantic & poetic as they used to be?” Because they don’t read. “Why are people so vulnerable to propaganda?” “Why is everyone a conspiracy theorist?” Because they don’t read. Because they don’t read.

If you are near Philadelphia, have 123 dollars, and roughly 28 cubic feet of space to store 1,600 VHS tapes in reasonably climate controlled conditions until I can get up there, I will retrieve this collection of almost guaranteed vital archival value and digitize its entirety.

part of why I don’t understand how these can even be operating legally here in Chicago is the Illinois Biometric Information Privacy Act with how many cameras a thing like this needs to barely be able to function and what happens to that footage once it drops off the overpriced poke bowl.

Exercise is a good thing, and I'm gonna be hooting and hollering like a dang fool if I see you out there getting after it in whatever capacity, but if you use your physique or fitness to demean others, get fucked, truly

why does everyone in the nuzzi orbit write like this!!
all of these people need an editor, a psychiatrist, and a small circle of trusted friends they can share this sort of beastly idea with over brunch instead of inflicting it on the public.
Possibly the only thing more freakish than Nuzzi's prose is the contortions her defenders twist themselves into. "She's not just hot, but she definitely is hot, while also being a vulnerable smol child. Also, criticizing her is sexist."

some significant part of this is just catch-all fear for “this is not the child I ordered” I think
Oh, here's a big surprise. The transphobes don't believe in ADHD either.
then, the transphobes , feeling victorious at how many people they have made unhappy and despairing in the previous week, move on to anything else that has a spectrum and the possibility of more colours than they can conceive - such hateful people - they cannot understand anything that is not THEM

Good on Penn Jillette. Having to come to terms with your entire political identity and philosophy being wrong is not easy and most people could never do it.

as with gaza, i think democrats are deeply out of touch with both the electorate and their base on immigration.

Thank you for helping me get this far!
Hi all. I once again need help surviving another month.

Still need $320 to get Pooh to the vet (fell short this month), and $1175 by the 1st for rent.
