We got a Costco membership for the first time in our lives today. They asked why & I said because treat your workers well, you value diversity, & you didn’t cave in to authoritarian demands. He said: “We’ve been getting lots of folks saying that, thanks for joining.”

He’s been co-POTUS for 4 weeks. Not even a month.

And they’re already calling for the likely future leader of the Democratic Party—a nonwhite woman—to be put in a cage. Twitter has many tweets like the one below.

Fascism is here.

When things are dark and uncertain, I often turn to stories about older movements. Less because there's some sort of recipe to follow, though there are many old problems we don't respect as such, and more because it helps you accept yourself as one among millions, for centuries.

Meant to mention this last week, but if you have a young person in your life who’s into history or graphic novels or just good books, buy them George Takei’s “They Called Us Enemy.” My oldest couldn’t put it down.

Over two dozen disability rights activists were arrested on Capitol Hill last week when they protested the Trump-backed budget bill and its cuts to Medicaid.

AI is an eldritch horror. it is a vast being without physical form. not truly alive or aware it consumes human knowledge and spits out a perversion. those who get close to it are driven mad and worship it as a deity that will lead them to salvation, even though it will lead them to destruction

Sounds like a really interesting departure from traditional multiplayer FPS titles, excited to try it. I’m a huge fan of AW, but wasn’t as big a fan of Control.
