I walked in on my parents in the living room, after my bedtime, watching an Ally McBeal episode with a talking toilet. Just a plain toilet bowl with some fishing wire lifting the lid up and down, but something about it shocked and horrified my recently potty-trained young mind. I was 17 at the time

One thing that goes underdiscussed about California’s state government is that they seem to have one of the most progressive state legislatures in the country, they just keep electing evil governors.

NEWS — Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear criticizes fellow Democrats who say transgender athletes should be barred from women’s sports. “That is not the party that we are. We start as a party of compassion and empathy.”

the republicans are wide open on several fronts, historically unpopular president, unpopular war, record high gas. any dem throwing trans people under the bus at this moment is doing it because they want to. not like they need to, do they. even if it worked as a vote winner, which it doesn't

Holy shit. Marcy Kaptur becomes the latest Dem to release an anti-trans ad, and its worse than all the rest combined. "I voted WITH Republicans to keep transgender ideology out of schools, and let me be clear, boys should NOT play in girls sports." This is getting out of control.

In my opinion Democrats get nothing nothing NOTHING by betraying trans people. They hurt themselves with a good deal of their committed voter base, and still don’t get the Republican votes they are so fucking obsessed with winning over. Lose-lose! People hate voting for squishy moral cowards!!

I appreciate that Dolly Parton refused to participate in "dress respectability" and, by her own account, modeled her aesthetic after a town "tramp," who she thought was beautiful. She separated aesthetics from character and understood "classiness" to be about how you treat people, not how you dress.

There’s a great scene in sci-fi show The Orville in which a woman from a planet with (somehow) an even more patriarchal society than than our own, is granted access to a database of all earth’s art. Upon discovering 9 To 5, she decrees, “this will be the anthem of our revolution!” Not a bad idea.

There are going to be Democrats who say we shouldn’t rip it all out — it’s already built, we have other priorities — but removing the visible signs of Trumpism is absolutely necessary.

The vandalism and desecration of the White House isn't just vanity and it's not trivial. It's caesarism, as in literally what Julius Caesar did to the symbolic architecture of civic republicanism. Our national iconography matters and allowing the disfiguring of it to persist is a substantive harm.

The fundamental divide in the AI wars is that spreadsheet people do the work that allows slideshow people to do their work, and slideshow people think computer can just replace spreadsheet people with bullshit. Be proud of being a spreadsheet person.

RE: The Atlantic, a few months after this issue a guy in El Paso went on a rampage targeting people he thought looked "Mexican"; he shot 45 and killed 23. when I read some journalists lines from his manifesto and Frum's essay and asked them who wrote which, they couldn't tell, I couldn't blame them
its a cover image of an april 2019 atlantic mag. a neon light bulb american flag signals no vacancy like a roadside motel. under the flag is a headline for david frum's cover story "How much immigration is too much?"

uhhhhh
 investigation was originally developed for The New York Times, where it underwent eight months of editing, multiple rounds of fact-checking, and independent replication of the underlying methodology. The piece had a scheduled publication date when requests for comment were sent. It was only after the Times reached out to the subjects of the investigation for routine comment that the Elias Law Group, representing the DCCC and DSCC, sent a cease-and-desist letter demanding the paper not publish. Although the paper's fact-checkers and legal department later cleared the piece before sending out a second round of requests for comment, the Times ultimately decided to kill the piece.3:27
a4democracy.substack.com
The piece was subsequently slated for publication at The Bulwark, where it underwent additional fact-checking, data verification, and legal review. When requests for comment were sent to the subjects of the investigation, lawyers representing the Progressive Turnout Project and Mothership Strategies likewise responded with legal letters demanding that the article not run.
From there, publication was repeatedly delayed. The piece cleared successive rounds of legal review. When I asked for a committed publication date after months of delay, The Bulwark conditioned publication on my accepting an extensive rewrite prepared by its editors that, in my assessment, removed key empirical findings without explanation, introduced claims contradicted by the data and fact-checking record, and presented the subjects' legal defenses as my own conclusions. When I declined to publish under those terms, the piece was released back to me.

there is no such thing as "age verification." All "age verification" is actually "identity verification." You can coat it in glitter and "privacy-preserving" wrapping paper. But in the end, mandating age verification means mandating surveillance be built into software and hardware. Period.

Tremendous insight into the inner workings of the Trump administration that the NSA/SecState was allowed to go down in a fireball but the person who posts AI slop for the President qualified as needing to survive at all costs.

Watching the election coverage tonight, I’m reminded of my love for when people describe politicians as “bought and paid for“ because it implies the existence of a politician who has been bought but not paid for. #electionnight “I don’t trust them, they‘e been Klarna’d by special interests.”

real art isn't in the cinema. it's not in books or libraries. it's definitely not in the TV. real art only exists on youtube channels with 3,000 followers where a guy who calls himself MicrowaveBen reviews tv dinners on a strange but internally consistent 7-point scale he calls the Flavornator
