Societies throughout history have used shame and shunning to send the message that some behaviors lie outside the accepted bounds of community. Some behaviors ARE shameful and should be treated as such.

It would be really cool if some people understood nuance. Tools are tools. They have uses. Some of those uses are good. Some are bad. Using AI to do your homework or re-create stolen artwork is bad. Using AI tools to solve protein folding problems and accelerate drug discovery is good!

My older brother once handcuffed me to the hurricane shutters and threw lizards at me. 40 years later I’m still a wee squeamish.

I agree completely! Vance should definitely avoid using his kids as political props, like taking them on official trips where the press will take photos of them getting on AF2.

People here are pretty fed up with the BOE. I hear life-long Republicans talking about voting Dem because they’re so fed up about school vouchers

I pay $1500/month for health insurance (plus hundreds for what they don’t cover). There’s no universe in which my tax increase to help pay for MFA would be nearly that much.

I mean they did give MAGA Inc a cool million to delay the implementation of a new testing rule, but otoh they are recalling all the lettuce anyway. My vote is for rank incompetence in the labs which is just sad. Like how bad has it gotten they screw up a simple PCR?

And I’d rather have a pony. But I live in reality, where the MAGA-fied GOP has no interest in civility as long as we are around. So fuck them and fuck you.

Democrats need to cultivate a media ecosystem like the GOP did 30 years ago.

Why is it ok that millions of jobs are taken by AI, but we can’t even discuss Medicare for all because insurance companies would have to layoff ppl?

That doesn’t mean we let the far right move the definition of moderate. Moderate does not mean “in the middle of two extremes”.

I was on a train full of Norwegians after they took gold in Ski Jumping Torino ‘06. They bribed the conductor to hold the train so they could get more booze and taught the entire car drinking songs.
