the two types of racist are food racist and sex racist. all racists fall into these two categories. hitler? sex racist. mussolini? food racist.

stephen miller? sex racist. jd vance? food racist.

despite being racist about food sometimes, donald trump is a sex racist

Food racism drives you crazy faster than most forms of racism

we need a way to use the infamous, meticulously crafted "Not Porn" blocklist, but in reverse

no one has ever had their brain cooked as thoroughly by a single Twitter dunk as Kate Willett did. just mind-blowing

he just had old, incredibly outdated beliefs about Israel as the Only Democracy in the Middle East!!! and was just incapable of updating in response to changing reality

he wasn't even subtle about it, and this inspired no apparent reconsideration in anyone at the top over whether a deal was worth doing

I mean, most of my time I'm either coding or in a browser (including Google Docs/Sheets, etc.) and that second bit also works just fine on vanilla Ubuntu

but yes, many people have That App they need that just doesn't come in a handy little package

do you publish shit like this about "loose cannons" so as to pretend we don't have a senile Nazi in the White House threatening to revoke people's citizenship for criticizing him?

I continue to be entertained that we spend enormous amounts of energy to design and build blazingly fast adding-and-multiplying chips, more enormous amounts of energy to build multi-billion-parameter models with them, and then judge the models by how well they add and multiply

always makes me think of the Fedoras of OKCupid Tumblr from years ago, used solely to make fun of guys' dating profile pics, and where no one seemed to take a moment to say "hey, does this actually seem a little fucked up?"

Good people need to start outing their ICE family members, neighbors, and community members.

They need to be made into pariahs in the places decent Americans gather.

Mamdani is absolutely more amenable to actually building housing in his city than Dean Preston, who still today spends the vast majority of his time in public attacking YIMBYs

SF is considering disbanding their bike commission, which is pretty pathetic IMO. Even tiny Emeryville, population 13k, has a bike/walk committee that meets monthly & always has something to discuss.

If they can manage to make it work then nobody else has any excuse.

You expect neurotypicals to care about places that are against their own existence? Sorry if I don't care about places like Reno where I might get beheaded for being myself.
