The way I've heard it explained is that there are people who are
1) actively against you
2) passively against you
3) don't care
4) passively support you
5) actively support you
You'll never get from 1 to 5 in one jump, so you want to move each person 1 notch more supportive. 1→2, 3→4, 4→5, etc

A few thoughts
1: basically every democrat outside the senate opposed this
2: it seems like most dems *in* the senate opposed it too (jury's out on who exactly)
3: this was the first vote, not the last
4: the house will have to come into session to pass this and that'll probably be a shitshow

study after study after study shows that literally just handing people money and telling them "do what you want with this" reduces homelessness, increases food security for children, makes it more likely people will find and retain jobs.1

⭐ TrueRef is looking to hire a Chicago area based carpenter/prop maker to build us a mechanical 360 spinning platform.
It'd be an ASAP deadline as I keep getting flaked out on and it's an absolute must have for TrueRef at this point.
DM me for more information!

Oh hey, a reason to be hopeful: groves of American chestnut trees have once again become self-reproducing in the wild.
Turned off comments so 12 people don't show up to tell me why this is actually very sad. Be happy, you assholes.

So while this is a bit inside baseball, it’s also a deeply concerning data point for how deeply fucked a search engine with an LLM makes the information ecosystem. It’s hallucination, but it’s also shitting cholera directly into the information well.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera
In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.
As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.
