Accomplices are better than allies

I am just a drawing of a cat standing on its hind legs sort of leaning forward

But if I were real and not a cat drawing, then once I had a paper route, did a few temp jobs, and sold CDs & cassette tapes in a retail shop
Until an adult uses it the way they use it, in context, just as described here

Dead silence

They hate it
IT'S '6-7', COOPER. A GENERATION ALPHA TREND. WHAT THEY CALL A 'MAY-MAY'. IT'S AN ORPHANED SIGNIFIER, NO SIGNS ATTACHED. ONE COULD CALL IT DADAIST, BUT SOMME SAY IT'S TOO STUPID TO BE DADA. IT'S ANTI-MEANING, ANTI-HUMOUR, BUT DAMN IF THOSE KIDS DON'T FIND IT A CRACK-UP.

For all the talk of the “progressiveness”

Some of the most consistently voting progressive legislators are the old Black people from the south

again find it bizarre that national dem leaders avoid the topic of ICE even on here but have time to congratulate an unpopular former speaker on their retirement from insider trading at 85

"is there a way to hold a leftist position on AI"

NO, FUCK YOU THERE IS NOT, IT IS ENTIRELY CONTRADICTORY

if you're talking about ethical use of "machine learning", there are great things being done with it, but it's purposefully conflated with "ai" as we know it, which is entirely evil

I didn't get to watch it last night so I just sat down and looked at Zohran's acceptance speech

Man

So good. SO good.

And the part about dismantling the conditions that facilitate the rise of despots?? Yes yes yes

crazy how u can be a guy whose platform is focused on affordability for your constituency and protecting the civil rights of same and handily win a major election without pissing all over trans people in the process and in fact explicitly pledging your support and love for them instead

Mamdani winning is a serious problem for "centrist" (right wing) Dems who want proof that pivoting away from supporting trans people is essential to Dem victory.

Mamdani has done the opposite--sprint towards trans protections, and he is winning back the young voters that Dems lost last year.

Between this and that Kamala Harris clip with Jon Stewart, it’s a good era for watching the light leave interviewers’ eyes as Democratic Party figureheads spout the most unhelpful passionless gibberish during a time of crisis

I've been following the NYC mayoral race pretty closely because it's just so nice to huff that hopium day after day and I couldn't tell you a single one of Andrew Cuomo's policies beyond "my opponent Mr Mandoonu is a communist he loves globalise the intifada he wants a flying bus".

Oh to be
A mycelium girl
No thoughts in my cap
I cling to my knurl

A sister of hyphae
Our hyaline entwined
Though I'm unique
Belong with hive mind

While flowers are known
For springs bright display
Im life from the rot
And the death of decay

Yeah. It's actually that while women have broken free of the patriarchal framework, men are still being raised expecting to conform to it.

Ok! Educate those young men abt affirmative consent & safer sex. Make abortion & contraception free & available everywhere. Enforce sexual assault laws actually. Create media that cultivates sex positive respect & care for everyone. Get ppl who don’t suck in office.

Culture change is possible!!
I am not in any way disagreeing with you Rabbi. However with the huge number of sexless young men 18-30 is creating a social hazard.

We need to get gender relationships fixed or we'll suffer from a lot of troubles later on.

WE MUST REDISTRIBUTE CAPITAL RESOURCES THROUGHOUT OUR SOCIETY.

urgently.

Sex, however, is not a resource, it’s an experience that people can choose to have with each other, if everybody involved consents.

Pete’s sake.
