this reminds me of the original opening credits of sesame kids: just a diverse bunch of kids wandering around untended, apparently in the city and the countryside, just walking around and seeing what shit exists

This so much!

Parents (usually mothers) in car-centric areas are forced to chauffeur their kids around. It also means they emphasize predictable, scheduled activities (like sports leagues) that cost money.

Youth mobility gives kids freedom, saves money, and reduces the unpaid-labor burden on women

The idea that the US was not a co belligerent in the war on Gaza more or less requires that you just ignore the evidence as it exists

The United States expended 25% of its entire missile defense capacity to prevent Israel from facing consequences for its war of aggression against Iran! The US Navy pushed maintenance schedules back years to kill Yemenis on behalf of Israel! They poured F/A-18s into the Red Sea for Israel!

Travis @someforeignfield.bsky.social · 7d

I don't want to directly quote tweet but there are apparently still people who think the US is somehow only "indirectly" involved in the genocide in Gaza. We've spent probably $50+ billion to make sure it happens! American soldiers have killed and died making sure it continues!

having AI write my posts has freed up time to look at the wall or a bug on the window, etc.

British car diy posts are comically stereotypical. "So you've just been to Halford's..." "Sparking [sic] plugs should be of a biscuit hue" "Pour into an empty jam jar" Same feeling I assume as Japanese guys who import Crown Vics reading about empty 2-liters of soda cut in half, or Harbor Freight

"What's the point of standards?" is the question our era is destined to answer. Thoroughly.

From Dear Leader all the way down to beat cops and schoolteachers; from internet-poisoned billionaires' Very Online pet hack journos, down to rando shitpoasters.

“I’ve been hearing that standards will be eliminated or severely cut back. Bari has told people that she wants to get rid of standards and is shocked that they have so much power. She also asked openly, ‘What’s the point of standards?’” one CBS source said.
