That's a thing? Do you know if anyone has written about it? My dad received one before a surgery a while back and he can't get any of his doctors to take it seriously, but he suddenly regained a lot of sensation in his feet and he could stand without pain for a lot longer

It's been unfun these last fifteen years realizing how many crypto fascists existed to come out of the woodwork.

It was *extremely dire* in the early 2000s/early 2010s, it honestly boggles my mind that it's so much worse now

At least five FUBARed Waymo robots:
Market & Guerrero, SF
One is a problem, two a mistake, five a major ops screw up. Waymo has never fixed their cascading failure problem. Maybe they don't know how.
Fundamentally unfit for service at scale until they do, IMO.

Why decline all these chances to defend feminism? Because to participate would be accepting the premise that our rights and humanity are up for debate in the first place.
Once you’ve conceded that it’s reasonable to ask whether women’s equality was a mistake, you’ve already lost.

Because it’s not just Bari Weiss’ CBS asking this question—in the last few months, I’ve been approached by half a dozen different shows looking to ‘debate’ the same topic.
I even got a request from NPR-distributed “Open to Debate” to see if I’d weigh in on “Has Feminism Hurt Women?”

DEI isn't why you didn't get a job. THERE ARE NO JOBS. YOU DIDN'T GET A JOB BECAUSE THERE ARE NO JOBS. If all the older professors retired? You still wouldn't get a job! Not in the humanities! Because they'll replace at best half of those lines! There will still be no jobs! None!
