Even if you are the cruelest piece of garbage to ever slime out of hell, what use is property without the people using it? A failure of thought so monumental it works on zero levels. Incoherent. Inhuman.

A ruling so heinous that the governmental system we have was exposed as worthless when it not only didn't throw the majority in prison for violating the constitution and basic humanity, but just assimilated it as acceptable law without a second of friction.

I’m gonna be clear: you cannot be friends with ppl who write legal opinions like this that have the practical effect of devaluing the lives of children and that give cops free rein to ignore human pain in favor of property protection. If you are, you’re morally bankrupt. I said what I said.

Funny how we all just “have to” accept AI as progress even if it’s janky and either has demonstrated no improvements to productivity or outright tanks it, but we never had to accept remote work despite every study showing it improves productivity AND workers lives.

Hmmmmm

Let him crow about absurd numbers, just make sure everyone knows that absurd number came from their pocket.

I'm so embarrassed I didn't realize until today that Charlie Brown isn't the Democrats and Republicans aren't Lucy.

WE are Charlie Brown and the Democrats are Lucy.

Michael Shannon cooking with gas here:

Some guy about to be dead: "James Bond!? I thought you were dead!" Bond: "Sorry, old chap, but that's you." [Bond shoots guy] Million dollars please.

I mean, I personally think Tim Sweeney should be sitting with shame on a daily basis but I don't think we're gonna get him there any time soon.

Much of the hand wringing, imo, is over a critic explicitly saying they are judging the moral fabric of a piece of art because of the tools used to create it and it’s making some folks feel uncomfortable and shamed. The people who feel that way should sit with that feeling.
