I think a pretty strong limitation of our modern understanding of physics is our ability to communicate it, like at this point we're investigating scales and forces that are so well beyond our ability to perceive them that even making a metaphor is difficult

I'm sorry, what more training could they possibly fucking get? This was a controversy when I was in college over a decade ago, do we need to put them near a black hole so the time dilation will give them the chance to fix themselves within our natural lifespans?

Christa Pike was tortured yesterday by the state of TN in every single USians name and the fact is that this is a country that is mostly OK with this. This says everything about all of us. We are all implicated in this barbaric practice. It's sickening.

"What if some people deserve it?" is a stumbling block in the argument for many. Easy to undermine or circumvent altogether: how many innocent people would you kill in order to keep killing the people you "know" are guilty? Because there is no system that doesnt torture and kill innocent people.

Considering how fragile we are as a species the only reason this happens is because the state actually just wants to torture people in public. People die in surgery without knowing what's happening all the time, this isn't a complicated thing, we're VERY killable. They just like torture.

Really I hate fascists the same way I'd hate someone who crashed into my car for being on their phone at the time. I spend every second I'm not engaged in a creative activity wishing I could rearrange every atom of the universe, no *fascist* ever wished for control more than me.

Pro tip for devs that could put you light years ahead of a solid chunk of your peers: nobody will remember what you said NEARLY as well as they remember how you made them feel, and neither "stupid" nor "unwanted" are good feelings. Related: YOU can only control what YOU say, not their feelings

Idk I'm not sure how to view entities like this as people on some level. They don't interact with humans, they recoil at signals of humanity, really they're trying to cut us out like pests. I'm not their kind of genocidal, just not sure what utility they could provide me that e.g. a horse couldn't.

As tedious as it is to hear over and over again the "it's not x, but y" formula that LLMs prefer is actually a great way to get a point across. If you start using it too much, just try to NOT use it and you'll eventually find workarounds that give you the same rhetorical tools in your own voice

Frank Miller is kind of nuts but at the same time his depiction of Batman fighting The Joker could really have been the end of the series for how perfect a distillation it is of the concept. I don't like that they changed Joker's final lines in the films but the VA performances are incredible.

If your reaction to any historically oppressed class or group is to say "why don't you organize and fight" I'd ask you to stop and consider: 1) how many people exist 2) how many people have existed in the past 3) why you think you're the first person to have this epiphany
