yeah my actually really hot take is that voting should be mandatory for all citizens (you don't have to actually fill anything in, you can write "fuck you" on the ballot, but you get slapped with a fine if you don't turn it in at all).
it would be better to try lowering the voting age, tbh. get kids registered in high school automatically, make voting a thing you do with your class for the first time.

Look, I know that this is an anti-AI take and I respect and support that.
But also, international art thief as creative expression is a total vibe and I'm here for it.

you don't understand. as someone who isn't inherently good at art, stealing paintings from the museum is the *only* way i'm able to express myself creatively. i wouldn't be able to paint beautiful portraits. but by breaking into a museum and stealing the paintings, now i am

Grimly amusing in a way that if you set aside Trumpism and tried to write a pithy apolitical overview of our trade policy, you'd end up with, "the United States saw the abject failure of Brexit and tried to replicate it on a grander scale."
Brexit was a national own goal of epic proportions, and it’s about to look like a minor opening act.
(Reuters) - White House aides have drafted a proposal to impose tariffs of around 20% on most imports to the United States, the Washington Post reported on Tuesday.

I was a little nervous at this competition but when I skated I felt the power from the audience. I wasn’t expecting to be first after the short, but I’ll do the same as always, and do my free so that the crowd can enjoy my program.

A few important fact to remember:
S. Korea lived under some form of military dictatorship from 1965-1988!
Brazil lived under a military dictatorship from 1964-1985!
Democracy is not an abstraction to these folk, it's a vulnerable thing that they want to protect.

“Don’t feed the trolls” also extends to bad opinion pieces in papers of record.
They run them bc people react to them the most.
If we stop linking to bad columns and instead post thinkers we find valuable (& generate convo around it), incentives change.
It’s not easy and takes constant practice!
