In the span of a single skeet, went from "people would maybe want to do eugenics" to "but imagine all the eugenics we could do!"
On the flip side. I also think about the amount of diseases, disabilities, and health related issues we could cure, or greatly diminish in the next generation. And I don’t at all think that’s a bad thing.

Real intense "Cops can't be racist because there are black cops" energy
A Muslim Israeli Arab woman, Ella Waweya, has just been promoted to the rank of major in the IDF.

Now, how do we explain that to people who have never set foot in Israel yet insist on calling it an apartheid state?

Mazal tov, Ella!

It's only fascist if it's a fully consolidated totalitarian state, otherwise it's sparkling ethnonationalist autocratic militarism
My mistake has been trying to explain what "fascism" is to people who don't care what it is.

So I'm going to try something else. Let's do this as a practical thought exercise.

If America *were* fascist *today* - what would you have to do differently in your daily life? /1

Really sounds to me that your mistake in trying to explain fascism is that you don’t actually understand what it is yourself. “Hasn’t affected me personally, so it can’t be fascism” 🤡🤡🤡

Here in Georgia, we only had a vote for some little technocratic regulation board and the GOP got absolutely steamrolled in it
Mike Johnson: "What happened last night is blue states and blue cities voted blue. We all saw that coming. And no one should read too much into last night's election results."

That libs still view Trump as an anomaly (vs “normal times”) and not the end result of a collapsing system is how you know they’re gonna fuck it up again and we’ll be stuck with President Vance in 2028
This is more or less where I am. Would I vote Mamdani in normal times? No. Would I support him over fascists and their throne-sniffing toadies? Fucking absolutely.

Nobody stopped Freddie Oversteegen to ask if she was a socialist when she was luring Nazis into the woods and killing them.
"The Sanders/Mamdani style of democratic socialism is, whatever its merits, at least compatible with America’s tradition of liberal democracy. The Trump style of national socialism is not."

This guy’s an economist so you know his brain is real smooth
There are basically only two positions in the debate about AI.
1. I’ve barely invested any time in learning how to use it effectively. AI sucks.
2. I’ve invested in learning how to use this tool. Holy cow, it’s transformational.

Position #1 has lower barriers to entry.

Learning to be a good bullshitter is a valuable part of the education process and offloading the bullshit generation to a computer is just robbing yourself
I wrote a 15 page report on heraldic symbolism in medieval armor and weapon design for my art history class the night before it was due (8am class). Made up 90% of it (only found one book for reference) and got an A. GenAI could fucking never.

I’m genuinely to the point where I don’t understand why anyone listens to this dipshit. “Our new product is absolutely burning a hole in our pocket, and I think the solution is to start splitting revenue with shareholders.” What revenue?! You just said it’s burning a hole in your pocket!
i think we are going to find out at some point these guys invented cocaine 2 and have been on it all along

it's so funny that all these economic pieces are like 'could it be that silicon valley has made a bad bet?' and then the bet is that a text prediction software will achieve consciousness

Bluesky is both completely insignificant but also hurt my feelings enough that I wrote and entire blog post about how mean everyone is
This morning we received important answers to the question of "What is Blueskyism?" from Nate Silver and it turns out that the answer is "picking on Nate Silver" and "Being Michael Hobbes."
