Have any of these people ever had a fresh idea? Even what’s considered revolutionary is cribbed from popular sci-fi from the 80s & 90s. Even the sci-fi is rehashed. How many times do we need to be warned about autonomous robots and robot dogs? No, you can’t grow potatoes on mars to survive.

Anand is the best (and I'm doing an event with him at, yes, @cityartssf.bsky.social Thursday, for his new book Man in the Mirror). Couldn't agree more that cities are refuges or places of last resort for people kicked out of rural/suburban/pseudo-idyllic America.

Fuck off with “crazy uncle Charlie”. That’s not at all an apt comparison. Don’t downplay who he is and what he’s done/is doing. Don’t attempt to make this some kind of same old, same old politics as usual. It’s not a thanksgiving dinner.

Why do you believe that and are we supposed to think that’s acceptable? “Quietly done” is continuing to condone all of his behavior and protect his regime. Sometimes politics doesn’t follow norms and expectations. You ought to know that by now. Uncle Charlie is murdering & raping people.

Paris isn’t exactly a cooling oasis. It’s an urban heat island where there were 8000 excess deaths due to heat this year. Local plants are evolving into not making flowers anymore. They’ve had to come up with massive plans to add green spaces to roof tops & walls. I’m sorry, but this is ridiculous.

To me it felt like picking up a little person. A 10 year old doesn’t want to be treated like a freaking giant baby from the Jerry Springer show in front of the whole world. It shows how detached he is from humanity. He had no sense about it. His instincts were completely off.

Why would anyone pick up a 10 year old? That’s weird. He’s not a baby. The kid is not small. He’s 10! He can walk , talk, feed himself, he should even be able to read, do math and make sandwiches. Don’t pick up 10 year olds. It’s weird.

I think there’s a combination of a bigger platform and outreach for far lower investment. It also exposes much of it to the outside world. It’s a double edged sword.

Religion and porn are. Always the earliest adopters of new communication methods. At the same time it may elevate cranks, it’s elevating the voices of those who’ve been denied communication with each other and the outside world. It’s granting access to material kept hidden or suppressed.

I’m shocked! The guy who played Danny Noonan in Caddyshack is finally breaking his silence on the cocaine culture “behind the scenes” of 80s comedy. I know it’s a lot of disappointment and shock about this. It’s okay to be confused and hurt that cast of caddyshack used cocaine. They seemed so pure

It's "astoundingly easy" for unqualified & unvetted people to start up a private school & then to get public money from state voucher programs. But even though the private schools get public money, they aren't publicly accountable. Oversight is almost non-existent. This is bad for kids.

How many times do I need to tell you I’m not interested in your input or being a target for your misplaced rage, hopelessness and misery? You are not demonstrating empathy, sympathy, kindness, safety. Don’t make things up so you can degrade other people and sow hopelessness & division. Fuck off.

There are multiple versions of the circle prank game. One found in places like restaurant kitchens and involves violence to reinforce masculine gender norms. It differs based on where you hold the symbol. I don’t know if it still happens, but in the 2010s it wasn’t unusual.

Good. Now move your misery train to a group who needs your kind of input. I might have sympathy for you, but you illicit none. I might have empathy if I could relate to your need to undermine others’ efforts and progress. Misery loves company and I don’t want to be in your company or mind. Go away.
