One of the best-sketched characters in an incredibly character-rich show: a fascist whose (potentially real!) redeeming qualities are continually undercut by his monumental pride, bigotry, entitlement and pettiness
The most realistic scene in DS9 is when Gul Dukat whined about how the Bajorans never erected a statue in his honor. A prophetic text.

rewatched the 1989 Batman and my main takeaway is that, thanks to a combination of the film's flaws and the acclaimed Jokers that Hamill and Ledger portrayed in the years after, Nicholson really does not get his due for how great he is in this movie

people, you have the chance to put my book ahead of Olivia Nuzzi’s on the bestseller list. put aside all other considerations and think how objectively funny this would be. #1, that Mountain Goats guy. #2, Antivax Man Has My Heart. funniest list of the century. We can do this if we try

Nirvana, "Smells Like Teen Spirit," Nevermind
The Who, "Baba O'Riley," Who's Next
Arcade Fire, "Neighborhood #1 (Tunnels)," Funeral
Peter Gabriel, "On the Air," Peter Gabriel ("Scratch"/1978 album)
Probably 50 others I'm forgetting.

"It is against the TOS to be talked into suicide by our LLM" is possibly the most evil tech bro thing I've ever read
Additionally, OpenAI argues its not liable because Raine, by using ChatGPT for self-harm, broke its terms of service

We've been drowning in median voter theory nonsense for so long, trying to appeal to this mythical centrist vote, that I think it's become easy to forget that having courage in your convictions, standing up for them no matter what, will in some cases inspire even your enemies

Actually the question that occurs to me is "will you nominate him anyway even after years of people telling you they won't vote for him if you do, and then when you lose as you were warned you would, will you blame not yourselves but the people who warned you."
If he ends up being the Democrat on the presidential ticket in 2028, you would rather vote republican or not vote at all because of this issue?? That’s the million dollar question. Not the hill I would die on and def not worth losing an election over!
