the whole point of experiencing art is getting to know the shape of others through the friction between their difference and mine. the paradox of art is, sure, in the end mostly all we find is a way to reflect on ourselves, but we can't get there without chasing after the grasping dreams of another!

Don’t love that the secretary of war announced the creation of a department of autonomous warfare in the same speech he referred to my people as a slur that I’ve not heard since 2012 on broadcast television but you know. whatever. who gives a shit man

Also, rather than POSWID (the Purpose Of a System is What It Does) I think it would be more accurate to say POSWII (the Purpose Of a System is What It Incentivizes) since that is generally the actual mechanism by which What It Does differs from What It Says On The Tin.

When the 205live boys had to sneak out to meet Pac, we just wanted to see our friend again. Our fearless leader. 

Pac wanted to meet us for something else. He told us that he wanted to apologize for leaving. That he felt he left us hanging. We had to assure him that we all supported him and him fighting the machine. Despite everything he was going through, he was thinking of us. 

As we said our goodbyes, Pac pulled me aside and said “Don’t let the rat bastards pull you down, bubba.”

This is a reminder that the fraternity system was created to oppose race and gender integration on college campuses. White men who wanted to keep their schools—and all the power that comes with college education—to themselves. It is not a coincidence that they are hotbeds of violence.

i know it's like. harassment induced psycosis (a sadly prevalent result of kf/8ch/4ch style epistemic violence meant to ensure there is no escape for the target from paranoia and precarity) but it is horrifying to witness. israel's obvious cruelty is enough. to call blood libel activism is obscene??

Another thing about fraternities is that the hazing rituals where slightly older young men would physically, mentally emotionally and sometimes even sexually abuse slightly younger young men have always disturbed and upset me greatly. And it’s really telling that I’ve seen men defend those too

anyone who uses un-reconfigurable image subtitles and then picks "prettier text" rather than "readable text" should be shot you should be letting the user make the decision, not assuming what they can and can't see deets in the alt-text
Planetes Screenshot:

problems:

- text is too thin
- text isn't anchored consistently
- The contrast-border is not thick enough
- The contrast-border is not different enough
- Lack of blackboxing/backstripping
- Offwhite makes color separation hard
- letters are kerned too close

aesthetically pleasing but miserable to look atConsistent spacing, thick borders, low typeface complexity, high contrast, hard white, rounded edges. This is how you produce rapidly parsable text

This interview with @timnitgebru.blacksky.app does a good job puncturing some of this BS. I think the private sector often profits off of just this sort of move: hiding ‘expertise’ behind proprietary doors and then making public claims that can’t be scrutinized is par for the course in business.

There are a lot of parents focused on getting gentleness *for* their sons, but not expecting their sons to show gentleness to anyone else. And that’s just male entitlement in liberal window dressing.

What does it mean for the probability to be five percent? Well, that’s five percent. But six percent? Well, that’s still five percent. Four percent is also kind of five percent. Three percent is two percent. And two percent is basically impossible.
