I'm not ready to talk about the sci-fi novel I'm writing in too much detail yet, but here's a meme about what it's inspired by without any further context
I've had the misfortune of hearing the song in question before, and it's not even original, it's just the tune of "Rolling Down to Old Maui" with whiny white supremacist lyrics

Evil cannot create anything new, it can only corrupt what good creates, etc. etc.
“We’ll Have Our Home” again is a song that’s extremely popular with white nationalists. It’s all over Telegram. I think the first time I heard it was from a video of a secretive group called the Mannerbünd.

There were quite a few moments in Skyrim that absolutely blew 14-year-old me's mind, among them entering Blackreach for the first time.

The world feels rough right now

So please enjoy this shrimp, filmed off Cozumel, Mexico. It may be a larval reef shrimp, but we don’t know what species or how long it lives or what it eats. The world is still full of wonder and beauty and mystery.

It’s the easiest heuristic in the world:

If the government thought they could convict Kilmar Abrego Garcia, they would put him on trial.

If the government had evidence to convict Marimar Martinez, they would have convicted her.

The government knows these cases will not hold up in court

looking forward to the looks on the faces of the American foreign policy establishment when it sets in that a democratic Iran will very much not be interested in it being 1953-1979 again

I’m seeing a lot of people predict that “the right wing media is going to turn this story for Trump” and “they’re going to work overtime to make America forget this” and you should tell that to all these people out there in Minnesota in fucking January. This can matter. This will matter.
A friend in Minneapolis just sent me this video. Looks like thousands have come together for a vigil after an ICE agent shot and killed 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good. This was my neighborhood for several years before coming to Portland.

I started out as someone sympathetic to a lot of the 'free speech' crowd, but my views dramatically shifted as soon as it became abundantly clear that they fundamentally don't take speech seriously and essentially want freedom without any responsibility
As popehat has pointed out, "free speech culture" has been terminal to legitimate free speech
people like this really like the first amendment when they can say whatever they want, but then really hate the first amendment when people can associate or disassociate with whoever they want

how anyone can call themselves a libertarian and not understand this amazes me everyday

Reminder that Asmongold is never happy, deeply unhealthy, and lives in a level of filth and squalor that would disgust your average 8th-century peasant serf. However badly you think you're doing, he's doing worse. Keep your head up, and don't heed anything he says.

Whatever you are feeling right now, let the fact that federal goons murdering their neighbor in broad daylight has not only *not* deterred good Americans from speaking out, it’s actually CAUSED hundreds of them to show up, knowing the danger, to protect their community

You can keep a free and peaceful society, or you can keep ICE. You can't keep both.

I need people to wrap their minds around the fact that here in Minneapolis, ICE broke the window of a vehicle yesterday, pepper sprayed the occupants, and arrested them, and shot another observer in the face today, and OBSERVERS ARE STILL GOING OUT TO PROTECT THEIR NEIGHBORS AT MASSIVE PERSONAL RISK
I’m eating lunch, I’m having a panic attack, I’m charging my phone, and then I’m going back out to try and keep my neighborhood safe.

People are going to try and lure you into debates about whether Maduro was a good guy or not and the thing is, it doesn’t matter for the purposes of discussing whether violent kidnappings and extrajudicial murders by the US government are ok. No, they aren’t! End of convo.

GenAI is the most destructive invention conceived by humanity since the nuclear bomb, and is every bit as destructive societally as WMDs are physically.
