a galaxy far away @andromeda.fyi · 01/05/2026yes, it's true, I did burn $100 of the company's money in Claude tokens , but, in my defense, it's workers day so really you should just consider it voluntary overtime costs- 140

a galaxy far away @andromeda.fyi · 05/04/2026I live in Argentina (which has this exact same problem BTW) and lived in Norway. I definitely do understand how monopolies make sure consumers have no choice except cave in to their extortion. And tariffs in Norway are not just on food. They are on pretty much everything. 000

Yes, it is grossly unfair that your bad posts do more PR damage to trans people than causing a mass famine through foreign aid cuts, then blowing up a school and causing an energy crisis did to cis people. But things tend to be unfair for us. 033239

Yes, being an ally can be uncomfortable, but this is beyond that. 14404

a galaxy far away @andromeda.fyi · 01/04/2026No, it's definitely outsized. On bsky specifically, there are way more accounts of trans people who are constantly abusive than accounts of people who are transphobic in even minor ways. It's insufferable and I say that as a trans person. There's no bigger contingent of bad-faith posters on here. 020

Reposted by a galaxy far awayjamelle @jamellebouie.net · 24/03/2026one thing that frustrates me quite a bit about modern opinion-writing is that hardly anyone tries to argue with a particular person or a specific argument. it's all gesturing towards people saying something. take this piece for example. setting aside the merits of the argument, who is the target?theargumentmag.comThe liberal case for voter IDThe SAVE Act is a bad bill, but voter ID is a good idea 1172937280

a galaxy far away @andromeda.fyi · 12/03/2026Like this "red line is boots on the ground" or Murphy's "they have no plan" thread a few days back On one hand it seems politically dumb of them to torch their credibility on behalf of their political opponents (and domestic politics >>> foreign), but that also means it's very convincing as a lie 110
a galaxy far away @andromeda.fyi · 12/03/2026Fetterman aside, sometimes I wonder how much of the public interplay between in-the-know senators and the executive is play acting for the US' opponents 130

a galaxy far away @andromeda.fyi · 05/03/2026Wealth taxes are not good for revenue. Support them for policy reasons if you like, but it's a fantasy to think you can get out of budget problems by taxing (a) stocks instead of flows and (b) from the people most likely to have tax advisors on call 030

a galaxy far away @andromeda.fyi · 19/02/2026my most "decadent modernity" take is that people are so rich now everywhere that no one cares about real material constraints or even believes they exist, so every argument is just about morality and any arguments that aren't moral are actually just tricks or lies 030
a galaxy far away @andromeda.fyi · 19/02/2026The Economist is the epitome of pseudointellectual "journalism", but people not understanding "taxing rich people won't fix the budget" is not a subjective or moral take is just AAAAAAAAAA 130

a galaxy far away @andromeda.fyi · 19/02/2026sure, but then lefties should not be all "we should just tax the rich" in discussions of the budget, and admit it is an unrelated policy goal of theirs and not their proposal for a solution 010

a galaxy far away @andromeda.fyi · 17/02/2026Me: This book where everyone does boring speeches isn't good for convincing people of their ideas You: So you think everything should have boring speeches?? 210
a galaxy far away @andromeda.fyi · 17/02/2026Because you have awful reading comprehension I'll make the obvious explicit: if you write fiction to convey an idea, but that idea is only supported by the fictional elements that you made up, it is a poor medium *for conveying the idea*. This is the criticism, not "fiction must be 100% accurate* 010
a galaxy far away @andromeda.fyi · 17/02/2026I actually think Atlas Shrugged is pretty terrible as philosophical fiction because the scenario it posits is so laughably unrealistic that it has no persuasive power. But if you wanna have your fiction be like Rand's, you can! It's a free world, you can be cringe and convince no one if you like 😊 210
a galaxy far away @andromeda.fyi · 17/02/2026Girl did you flunk out of primary school? Do you think fiction is a valid vehicle for expressing ideas, and can be criticized as such, or do you somehow not understand the points *actually* being made instead of what you're imagining they are 120
a galaxy far away @andromeda.fyi · 17/02/2026I think you should take a step back and do a reading comprehension class. Then start with some books like "Capital" or "The Conquest of Bread" or anything by your preferred 19th century thinkers. Then come back and reread what people actually write so you don't embarrass yourself further. 100
