been having too many people blaming Americans for the abuse we are enduring right now and they seemed to get really upset when you point out that they are basically siding with the abuser in a domestic abuse situation
America has been under attack from these monsters for 50 FUCKING YEARS

Today I learned that Wilhoit's Maxim— "Under conservatism, there are in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, and out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect"— was enshrined in Nazi Germany under the "Dual State Theory."

The “dual state” theory was invented to describe Nazis. The Supreme Court could take us there.
Authoritarianism—but make it look like the rule of law.

If you have the option, shop at Lowe’s instead of Homeland Depot.
🧵 Lowe's CEO, one of 8 Black Fortune 500 CEOs, stands firm on DEI.
"Championing Diversity Through Action: Ellison’s approach to diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) is rooted in practical change rather than public statements"
Home Depot, meanwhile, allows ICE agents to raid its parking lots.

Young men nowadays are not more conservative than before. If anything, that’s a distortion perpetuated by focusing too much on what happens in adolescents’ online spaces.
(10/10) Altogether, this study challenges claims of a generational rise of conservative men. Like the young men and women who came before them, adolescent boys and girls in the 2020s are set to converge in their political attitudes as they mature and develop into adults.

I’m just a naïve professor of politics, but it seems to me that it wouldn’t be *that* hard to mandate that every data center project add sufficient renewable capacity to zero out its impact on the grid.
… and when the bubble bursts we’d at least be left with *some* kind of economic & social good.

If you're not, listen to this.
Get a guitar or some drums, or a trumpet. Pick up a brush, a pencil, some clay or a welder.
Just make shit. It doesn't have to be good (eventually it will be) just make music, art or write or whatever.
It's literally never been more important.

Well this 2,600-year-old clay letter was a journey.
It comes from the archive of a goldsmith named Nabû-zeru-iddin in the heart of ancient Assyria. We’ve got someone left on read, a lawsuit, a mean step-mom, and people who get drunk and steal silver.

Nifty, for sure. But still just software. A finely tuned probability engine. Not particularly intelligent, and certainly not conscious.
Always remind yourself of that.
