bro my union president is reposting boomer slop bro
Randi Wiengarten repostinf some bullshit that calls trump a communist and says Putin is a communist. Check out the replies, it's really bleak. Somehow the generation that actually lived through the fall of the USSR doesnt know that it happened.

Remembering the time some prolific poster on here was mad at me for using a labeler that showed they posted 50 times a day. As if posting on bsky is an equally viable use of your time as like, going for a stroll

Just spoke with an AI agent for an intra-city bus line. [Machine lists the wrong departure time] "I don't think that is correct" "I'm sorry about that" [lists 3 more made up times] "Those are all wrong too." "I understand how that could be frustrating" You understand?!?

It’s amazing how narrow and limiting the algorithm is. I can’t find anything on YouTube I’m interested in, bc it’s winnowed down all my perceived interests to a handful of things, so now it’s like 10 different people saying the same things about the same thing. Bad!

The lede is like something a soldier might have written decades after storming Omaha Beach, and having lived long enough to tell his grandchildren about how he somehow survived that fateful day.
For years, the first thing I did upon awakening was check Twitter to see if I had been canceled. After a quick name search to ensure that there was only the usual amount of frothing denunciation, I could get on with my day.

Sometimes a drug trip is a profound experience where you realize that you’ve been carrying pain in your heart for years, that you can forgive yourself. Other times you come up with a concept called “gay money” (money that’s gay) and you text your friend “gay money” days later. Both are healing. ❤️‍🩹

There’s more to be said about the relationship between Pinker-style stardom and the state of academia. Not because academia is Woke, but because star systems loosen rigor at the top while solid scholarship becomes a dead end lower down. Shoddy celebrities and broke PhDs proceed from the same machine

My take on 9/11 is already sufficiently explained by Jean-Paul Baudrillard in the Spirit of Terrorism which, as I know Americans are familiar with, explains at length how our power as an empire plays with the global alterity.

Education policy discourse is so depressing. We need a massive injection of public money into hiring teachers at all levels, I could give a shit if the UCs require an SAT score

Did you guys know that a widely used transportation technology is encouraging Americans to prioritize speed and convenience over physical activity, with grave consequences for public health? It's called an e-scooter and it's time to finally do something about it.

NYMag's rundown of Neera Tanden's war against the left, which omits her amplification of Nazis, her org's hidden funders, and her recruitment of Biden-admin war criminals, cites this as its major example of CAP's lefty bona fides:
CAP's policy positions bear that out. Among its
proposals for addressing the affordability crisis is _a
voluntary program in which grocers who restrain
price increases on staple foods would get
temporary relief from credit-card swipe fees_—
hardly the sort of policy usually associated with
the party's corporate-friendly center.

The excesses of the Woke 1 era mostly amount to cringe public statements, harmless vocabulary updates and loss of prestige for public figures. The backlash to Woke 1, on the other hand, is imprisoning dissidents, dismantling public education and eroding democracy. That's what needs reckoning
