If you want non-offensive pro-natal politics, this is what it looks like. People want policies that help them have all the kids they want to have, not policies that coerce them into having children.
Mamdani on The View on new funding for universal childcare: "We actually have a mother in the audience -- Mallory -- who when the announcement was made, texted her husband to say, 'It might be time for a second kid.'"
Hosts: "Awwww"

Our worthless class of elites is responsible for Trump, not because they agree with him but because their affectation of seriousness has suffocated them and made it impossible to leverage their resources and platforms to stop or slow him. They’d have to break the pose, and REACT, and they will not.

"The only sign that it's human is that it sucks" I need that one etched in stone so I can look at it at regular intervals for the rest of my life and see how it holds up.
I would just mentally fastforward the transition period 5 or 10 years and think of the equilibrium. "engine moves" for human writing in arbitrary voice are the future, so any text is going to be easily produced from guiding prompt by engine, and the only sign that it's human is that it sucks.
I have even more bad news.

![Screenshot of Claude Code terminal interface showing a migration progress checklist
The terminal displays a dark-themed interface with two tabs labeled "1: fg" and "2: ~" at the top. The main content shows a detailed task list for what appears to be a Rust codebase migration project.
The upper portion (lines 47-54) shows completed tasks highlighted in green, including items like "PrivateIpStackCreate enum," "InstanceNetworkInterfaceCreate with ip_config," and creating dual_stack_nics files for floating_ip.rs and probe.rs.
Below that, lines 43-54 show another set of completed tasks (marked with [x]) in a green-highlighted block, detailing work on dual_stack_nics/instance.rs including IpAssignment<T> enum, type aliases, and various struct implementations.
The middle section shows "Phase 4: Add Types to silo_project_ip_version_and_pool_type" with a file being written containing Mozilla Public License headers and module documentation about adding ip_version and pool_type fields to SiloIpPool responses.
At the bottom, a "Cerebrating..." status bar shows the AI is thinking (1m 30s elapsed, 5.7k tokens). Below this is a checklist of remaining tasks including completing dual_stack_nics/instance.rs, creating version module files, updating latest.rs, resolving conflicts, and running cargo checks.
The footer shows "accept edits on (shift+tab to cycle)" indicating pending code changes awaiting user approval.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:sl3g3nhnad34sfhjnqdivbzd/bafkreiep35hi26nxyemiy4v2tvo7mlkftnbwice3rvs3phucmlnbzguw3q@jpeg)
