The creeping intrusion of consent-optional shit in tech is fucking creepy, if nothing else
At one point my phone, in my pocket, piped up to complain at me that what I'd just said was not a valid question and that it couldn't answer it as a result
I was not using an app, it just decided to spy

The purpose of a system is what it does - if a support system is inaccessible it's because the govt funding it fundamentally does not want to support the needs of its population.
A govt's responsibility is to serve the nation's needs - if it can't fulfill that it has no purpose

My buddy picked up a spare kid - a friend of his own son. Said kid lives with his dad, a single parent on disability after a near fatal car crash. Last night Kid was at my buddy's for dinner and asked, "Can you pack me some spaghetti to go? My dad's been starving himself to make sure I eat."

Zohran Mamdani caught lying that he understood Plato’s allegory of the cave, yet when asked to explain it, he seemed to instead explain Baudrillard’s theory of Simulacra and Simulation where reality has been replaced by symbols and signs, which seems similar to Plato’s theory but is not the same

I don't think we'll ever get another sentence which sums up everything the New York Times embodies quite like "Some legal experts have called it a crime to summarily kill civilians".
hey @nytimes.com: there is no counterpoint here. There are no credible legal experts who would EVER say that the US military has any right or authority to blow civilian craft out of the Caribbean and kill their crews from afar without any provocation. There is no other side to this question.

If you told one of the founding fathers’ enslaved concubines that centuries later we’re in national mourning enforced under penalty for a dude whose every word was so hateful nobody can even quote him to honor him, she’d probably be like sounds about white.

I mean, call me a Loony Lefty if you want, but it *is* starting to look a bit weird arresting disabled pensioners protesting peacefully one day and telling coked up bellends attacking you to “calm down” another day the same month.
Obviously, just my opinion. I might have got it wrong.
