The moment in Holy Grail when Lancelot is running toward a castle and the guards just watch him. They cut to Lancelot running in place about 5 times, and he’s never gaining ground, until he’s suddenly right there. He kills the guards and then slaughters a bunch more people.

I thought AI was going to eliminate the need for most work altogether…
Dr Oz: "If we could get the average American to start working a year earlier, right out of high school, or a year later -- not retire -- or work better during their lifetime because they're healthy, it would generate about $3 trillion to the US economy. That would more than remove the debt."

A fundamental problem with this country is that you have less responsibility, transparency, and duty as you gain more power when it should be the opposite. The Supreme Court gets to be very secretive for no good reason. Cops get a monopoly on violence and have near total immunity when they use it.

Men, in particular, maybe shouldn’t be allowed to be in charge of more than like $10
The Epstein emails should really end the debate over whether society should have billionaires. "Do you want there to be a class of people so powerful they can fuck your kids and no one will even try to do anything" seems like an easy sell if everyone in politics wasn't trying to get on their payroll

I get tired of saying it, but I’ll say it again: the nature of oppression in America is that they workshop it first on Black, Latino, Asian & Native people.
But it is always, in the end, coming for everyone.

The arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are a test for every MSM member with a platform. If you are not voicing your outrage at this blatant violation of the First Amendment, you are utterly discredited as a journalist.

it's much worse than an "absence of leadership"
this is one of the most powerful, well-resourced tech companies in human history. Even within the realm of feckless capitulation there's no reason for Cook's extracurriculars (attending this cack, the corny statue) unless you approve of fascism

“This isn’t leadership. This is an absence of leadership,” an Apple employee said about CEO Tim Cook's latest capitulation: Attending a White House screening of Bezos-funded "Melania" on the night of Pretti's murder.

Exactly right.
Bovino's leaving? Great, get Noem to resign.
Noem resigns? Great, defund and dismantle ICE.
Go after Stephen Miller too. Bring charges against ICE thugs at the state and local level. Lawsuits. New state laws restricting them.
Every possible angle.

Yes we need allies in this fight but until someone can answer “what will you do differently in the future,” they’re not an ally they’re just trying to avoid having to flee to Argentina

This is why we had Jim Crow instead of truth and reconciliation after slavery ended. People are so quick to absolve anyone who pays lip service to changing their mind about human rights violations instead of letting them live with the social consequences of their words
Bluesky idea: if people who didn't agree with you change their opinions so that they do agree with you, why not be happy that you are making progress - rather than complaining that they are "only just catching up"?

I've been thinking about this, and of course there are issues of race and ethnicity and social class, but I think the core of it is: "I need to hoard guns in case the feds try to take MY property. The second amendment is for ME and MINE. You? You're on your own."

No, we called them fascists because they’re fascists, as evidenced by their words and deeds.
After that, they opposed abortion and affirmative action because that’s what fascists do.
