It's haha funny what happens when you moved past outraged NY Post headlines and actually look at what "government-run supermarkets" means in a non-Soviet reality.
Turns out Mamdani's controversial proposal for government-run supermarkets isn't so novel. Other cities also are toying with the idea to bring fresh, affordable food to communities that do not have easy access to it. Good WSJ read (gift link)

Inside Atlanta’s First Government-Funded Supermarket
The goal is for the store to become profitable without any government subsidy within three years.

reminds me of this one tumblr post from eons ago that ranked all the marvel films based on whether they had trains or not. that's the only kind of ranking i care about now.

191. Leia and Holdo? They fuckin. Padme and Sabe? They fuckin. Han Solo and Lando? Oh, you know they fuckin. R2-D2 and C-3PO? Not fuckin, but a deeply committed queerplatonic partnership. Luke Skywalker is asexual.

157. I do sometimes kind of wish the answer were a deeper cut, but there is no denying that the coolest Jedi in the entire collective history of the Order really is Obi-Wan Kenobi.

139. Omega from The Bad Batch really really should have been trans. I was so convinced that she had to be trans that I’m still kind of in denial of the reveal that she wasn’t.

137. The best lightsaber battle in any Star Wars media is this one in the final season of Rebels, where a broken Darth Maul finally chases an aged Ben Kenobi to the edge of the Galaxy.

the “thanksgiving food is bad” discourse raises its ugly head every year, but the truth remains that thanksgiving food can be amazing as long as you know how to cook. the problem is we’re throwing a few million sunday drivers directly into a grand prix
I think this is unfair to turkey. turkey is good but hard to cook well because it is so damn big. turkey *parts* are great but lack the esthetic appeal of a centerpiece bird.
it is tired to the point of cliche to say if turkey was good, people would make it more than once a year. but it is understated that at least one American explodes every Thanksgiving in a brave attempt to make the main dish more palatable

If you can’t see a socialist mayor doing a press conference with the president of the United States and saying “the US is funding a genocide” to his face for what it is, I think maybe your leftism is a bit more of a mode of posting than anything else

my jaw is on the floor and yet im completely unsurprised. trump’s only political conviction is that he loves a handsome winner
A reporter asks if Mamdani stands by calling Trump a fascist. Mamdani starts to give a delicate answer.
Trump (smiles, pats Mamdani's arm): "That's OK, you can just say yes. It's easier. I don't mind."

Mamdani could save the country by just staying at the White House, infiltrate the administration and become a scheming Vizier (laudatory) to oppose the work of all the other scheming Viziers (derogatory).

saturation with Tolkien spinoffs has somehow not prepared our culture for the arrival of dark lords bearing a gift that everyone becomes convinced they can wield to accomplish great things but just makes them dependent and start whispering about preciouses if you suggest just throwing it away

When two terrible people get into a bar fight, you dont jump in beside one of them, you just kinda nudge a pool cue into reach and see what happens
you can have a big tent that doesn’t include MTG in it. what you do is toss her a stick of dynamite or something and say “have fun!” she doesn’t need to be in the tent to throw it

Oh, we don’t need immigration to fix our demographics. We can just do natalism, a policy aim no country in the world has been able to achieve, and in only 18 years that will fix it

Why am I so against generative AI in games?
Because I simply do not want my initial reaction to art to be one of suspicion and scrutiny, AI slop is fundamentally damaging my relationship to art and artistry, and I am deeply resentful that it is forcing me to be guarded when I should be wowed.
