I've said it before but one of the most revelatory things about reading Marxist theory is seeing just how much genAI automation is just the same old business-as-usual capitalism. Here's Ernest Mandel's Late Capitalism in 1972.

The hidden burden of undiagnosed ADHD is constantly inventing excuses in an attempt to explain behavior that you don’t even understand yourself.

Yep, I've got a History degree and the lessons from it are far less predictive of what will happen in contemporary society than Gender Studies and Critical Race Theory, which are like that sports almanac in Back to the Future II.
kind of darkly funny that "gender studies" is the stereotypical "useless degree" because gender studies will help you understand a large and important chunk of the current psychosis in american life

liberals tell on themselves when they refer to the human rights, lives, and body autonomy of others as mere "policy preferences." i guarantee if it were jonathan's fundamental personhood on the chopping block je wpuldnt be so fucking glib about it
And if you refuse to give someone credit for standing for liberal democracy just because they don’t agree with your policy preferences, you’re missing the big picture. www.thebulwark.com/p/why-marjor...

After watching #HeatedRivalry, sex scenes in other shows and movies look ridiculously bad. Like, first of all, the body angles are all wrong.

We need a position that's extremely anti AI but also very anti academics making a fetish out of 19th/20th century knowledge infrastructures & practices.

There’s a direct line from ‘just asking questions about women’s sports’ to criminalizing our health care, we warned you it was coming, you said it would be fine and you just had a few more questions.

My sense is that the “male loneliness crisis” is not really about addressing men’s emotional needs but rather the relatively newfound absence of having someone to perform domestic labor for you quietly in the background now that there is a longer gap between your mother and your wife doing it

Und dann denkt bitte daran, dass es nicht reicht, Ausschnitte aus Hannah Ahrendts Interview mit Gauss zu teilen sondern, dass die Lehren aus der Geschichte in der Gegenwart gezogen werden. Helft, wehrt eure Freunde und Nachbarn, Solidarität ist konkret!
Apropos #ICE in den #USA: Machen wir uns nix vor, deren Praxis ist nur einen Moment von dem entfernt, was hierzulande gerade geschieht. Es geht nicht um illegale Einwanderung, Migrationskontrolle oder auch Abschiebung von Straftätern bzw. Gefährdern, es geht um ethnische Säuberung, aka #Rassismus!
Neue Entwicklung im Fall Selmi: Mit Stimmen von CDU, SPD und AfD hat eine Mehrheit der Abgeordneten sich gegen eine Petition ausgesprochen, die gefordert hat, dass der Eintracht-Boxer und Tiefbau-Azubi bleiben kann. Der Chef von Selmi und die Jugendhilfe sind empört

Watching people humanize ChatGPT while dehumanizing literal small human children is one of the most fucked things about this era.
I don’t care if your book has a Paint cover. I don’t care if you have typos. I don’t care if you took the cover photo with your phone. But I do not want to read a book YOU DID NOT WRITE.

Writing requires you to write. To feel. To think. To impart that. That is step one to Being a Writer.

Im Rentenpaket fällt mir wieder auf, wie sehr Berichterstattung darauf fokussiert, was das für Koalitionsstabilität und Kontrolle der Parteichefs über ihre Partei bedeutet, und wie wenig darauf, was es für das Leben der Menschen bedeutet.

wir sind mal wieder in einer phase wo unmenschlichkeit, brutalität, genozid und kolonialismus wieder „in“ ist.
Nur zur Bewusstmachung: Alles was einst nach 1949 international angeblich erlernt und eigentlich vereinbart wurde, wird heute wieder vergessen und rückgängig gemacht. Ein neuer Zyklus der barbarischen Entzivilisierung hat begonnen, nur mit noch mehr Technologie und Ressourcen.

Long Thread

Ich will mal was erzählen, was mit dem Sprechen über Rechts zu tun hat. Beschäftigt mich viel.

Ich hab neulich einen Workshop zu Digitalfaschismus gegeben.

Vor mir war ein Redner der über völkische Siedlerbewegungen informiert.

I’m so proud of Adrian and what he’s done with Project 1933, a project that has opened my eyes in ways that have challenged and surprised me. It’s been an honor to come along for the ride, and I’m so excited to see it in this next form.
So excited to finally get to share the news that PROJECT 1933 is going to be a book!!!

The last person I want to hear from about how disability accommodations "have gone too far" in higher ed are a bunch of privileged able-bodied journalists who cannot see the forest for the trees, but also are feeding the omnipresent ableism disabled people face with this crap.
I don't think people realize how much the use of academic disability accommodations has exploded over the past decade—especially at the most elite schools. More than 20 percent of Harvard and Stanford students apparently receive some form of accommodation:

"In Bed With the Right" is easily among the smartest, most incisive analysis of gender politics, culture, and whatever is happening on the Right you'll find anywhere. Grateful to @adriandaub.bsky.social and @moiradonegan.bsky.social for what they are offering with their podcast. Please listen!
