Sometimes I genuinely feel like social media is a psyop to get us to think we're making a change as we shout into a channel directly controlled and regulated by the ruling class instead of physically going outside and yelling at people in person, which has been shown to be awesomely effective
He said this to someone else who called him out on that very thing, and his excuse is incredibly sad.

As the oracle foretold
Cow Tools!

We have lived alongside cows for nearly 10,000 years.
We breed them and exploit them

It is now, only now, that we have discovered THEY CAN USE TOOLS

I can't tell you how glad I am to see that the sentiment around AI has clearly turned against it. A long time ago I felt like the only viable hope for pushback here is a cultural one, and it's actually happening, it's working ❤️

Just gonna say this again for games sphere cus we get the same question:

Networking doesn't mean schmoozing up to famous people, it means making friends with your peers. Then in 10 years, 20, one of you might be famous? And sure you're still helping each other cus well yeah friends.

Make. Friends.
Talking to one of these types at a con who asked how I 'got in' with so many 'famous writers' who I'd been talking to and I said "we made friends before anyone knew who we were decades ago by striking up interesting conversations and enjoying each other's company" and he kept re-asking the question.
They have come to the convention hoping to "break in" and then find themselves -- shocker! -- a "nobody in the book world." Yeah no shit! We all are! I have gently told guys like this a million times that it takes most of us *years* of hard work but they do not believe that could be true for them. +

Indie Dev discovers the game they're making basically already exists, worried of being deemed a ripoff. Original dev responds.

Fun Fact: USPS works with companies because delivering to rural areas makes negative money.
🚨SCOOP: Amazon is preparing to sever ties with USPS and expand its shipping network as a true coast-to-coast rival.

It could cost USPS more than *$6 billion* a year in lost revenue, and lead Amazon to dominate yet another facet of the economy.

USPS posted a *$9 billion* loss in 2025.
Amazon explores cutting ties with USPS, building its own delivery network
Amazon looks into expanding its nationwide delivery network and giving up its longstanding partnership with the U.S. Postal Service.

Hahaha, right?! Or what about mandatory disclosures for the discrepancy between the salaries of the CEO and their lowest paid worker? That would be so funny, right?! Let’s do it as a funny joke!!!

If unions were bad for workers, corporations wouldn’t pour millions into union-busting consultants.

Funny how they fight so hard to “protect” workers from better wages, safer conditions, and a voice on the job.

They’re terrified of one thing: workers having real power.

We’re not mad at families on SNAP. Everyone deserves food and dignity.

We’re mad at the CEOs getting rich off our labor while paying us so little that we have to rely on SNAP to survive.

The problem isn’t programs — it’s poverty wages.

Let's say they earn $2,000/month. Spending $5 at least once a week is 1% of your paycheck. At most, buying everyday, it would be 8%.

Where your rent would be roughly 40%-60%.

I wonder why they are struggling 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
“At the same time, more than half of Gen Z members say they are struggling to make ends meet, yet a majority buy themselves a small treat, such as a pastry, coffee, or sweet, at least once a week. That can lead to overspending…”

JD Vance claims that diversity weakens unions, as people end up distrusting each other and not organizing.

Let me tell you two menswear stories related to this claim. 🧵

Me: I want to "insert random thing that can be learned or done."

Also me: I need to work on my game and my freelance jobs.

Just yesterday, I wanted to buy electronic components for a side project, and the day before, I was looking for how to make a Dorodango.

I am plagued by inner conflicts.

Our first development snapshot for #GodotEngine 4.6 has arrived!

As the feature freeze thaws away, so begins a small trickle of QOL and enhancements; a mere sample of the incoming torrent of changes 4.6 is sure to see
