According to my girlfriend that's worked a lot in hospitals, you basically have to go to a nationally renowned trauma center if you want to be sure that your doctors consistentlt wash their hands after shitting and clean up after bedridden patients - it's fucking awful

It really pisses me off that "another X billion dollars to Israel/Ukraine" is still one of the most popular memes out there, well over half a year since Trump has actually been setting all the country's money on fire in Iran... but he's above criticism because everyone accepts he's an "outsider"

I'm an overly-optimistic booster of the future in robotics and automation, but I don't think I'm really wrong to be one either - people have no idea how much more peaceful/advanced the world is going to be when most every difficult/dangerous manual task is taken out of our hands

I generally love NJ, but the one thing that pisses me off about this state's culture is that seemingly everyone (even the Democrats!) absolutely hate our gun control laws - like, people act like it's Nazi Germany because we require background checks, and our low violence totals just don't matter

Relatedly, it would appear that most of the people trying to sell you the "everything is now actual doomsday" perspective are increasingly reliant on shaky populist crap that doesn't hold up to scrutiny, like saying that Microsoft only exists to preserve genocide or some random shit like that

The more time passes, the more deeply irritated I get by the bulk of post-colonialist musicological literature... it's strangely essentialist/paternalistic stuff that tends to read as pathetic flogging of your own field as sinful and in need of repentance that it fundamentally can never have

It's just wild to me that S3&K was the greatest platformer ever made, and Sega decided that the appropriate response was to never make a high-budget 2D Sonic game ever again The shift to 3D was always a failure, and we're well past the time when 2D was considered too outdated to develop

It feels underdiscussed that achieving results like Blue Texas, Iowa, or Kansas not only wins an absurdly valuable seat for us, but also destroys a lot of the "us vs. the coastal elites" attitude legitimizing the GOP in Middle America - it would show that Democrats are popular all over!

On this note, my radical belief is that the writing of NPCs who can dynamically interact with you forever using AI will be the greatest and most ambitious writing challenge in history - no literary character will ever come close to the absurdly thorough depth you'd have to bring to a convincing bot

I think that even engaging with the wrecker arguments only serves to boost and legitimize them - on social media, the only way to win the discourse war is to completely ignore the existence of your opposition, and just drown everyone in mountains of original discourse of your own like they do
