coffee with cream and no sugar is superior to both coffee with cream and sugar, and coffee with nothing, but they're all pretty good and I respect all three choices
coffee with sugar and no cream is an insane drink for psychopaths

People get irate when you don’t “perform” poverty correctly.
It annoys me when people say “they’re on SNAP but their hair and nails are done and they’ve got tattoos”. It’s extremely normal to do your own hair and buy press on nails, and tattoos literally last forever. What do tattoos someone got 10 years ago have to do with them needing to eat now

What a mild way to say "this is against the law and has been anathema since the founding of this country."
The U.S. Treasury shared a proposal to mint $1 Trump coins to mark America’s 250th anniversary.

But U.S. code says only deceased individuals may appear on U.S. currency, a tradition dating back to efforts to break from monarchical rule. https://wapo.st/4pWsyL3

Hemophilia is kind of a mean name for a disease. "Hey check it out this guy *loves* bleeding." It's got "stop hitting yourself" energy

like so many products to come out of silicon valley in the last decade or so, AI is a legal innovation masquerading as a tech innovation. the legal theory seems to be that AI is entitled to everything but liable for nothing.
AI advocates have warned that if every author in the class action filed a claim, it would "financially ruin" the entire industry.
Authors celebrate “historic” settlement coming soon in Anthropic class action
Advocates fear such settlements will “financially ruin” the AI industry.

The thing I fall back on is simple:

“You were taught cotton was the cash crop of the south. You were lied to. The cash crop of the south was human beings - particularly in the upper south. Slave owners forcibly bred human beings and then sold them for a profit. Sometimes their very own children.”
"How bad slavery was" is worse. Much worse. Much worse than you think, much worse than you're taught, much worse than museums depict. Worse.
