Full service geek: I'm an IT professional into games, sci-fi (weirdly never got into anime), and TTRPGs. I enjoy cooking (and eating), all things Disney related, and sit zazen to help me remember that none of it is really important. ...it's a good life.

Try Albanese, you might change that stance.

My take on why many (white) progressives say that Israel is making the US go to war is that they would very much prefer that to be the case than to have to examine their own culpability and participation in America's white supremacist militaristic reality. So much easier if it's outsiders.

Navigating presumptions of dangerousness and guilt is exhausting. Bryan Stevenson talks to Katie Couric (@katiecouric.bsky.social) about the commitment to truth-telling in the face of racial bias and bigotry: www.youtube.com/watch?v=1kT_...

I think some in the Senate have convinced themselves that the backlash to folding will be limited to “the left” and therefore ignorable. Those people are deeply and profoundly misreading the moment and the stakes. Virtually every swing district House Dem walked the plank to vote NO for a reason.

The first fun print for myself from the new 3d printer. Needs sanding, paint, and a pass with rub'n buff but I'm quite happy.

Is Trump the president who will truly set a course for Mars?

When it comes to the idea that conservatism has embraced fascism and supremacy, nobody is more persuasive than conservatives themselves. An essay on bullies and the margins of permission in the USA.

I had that discussion with my mom recently about racoons. I know they are valuable to the ecosystem... that's why they can roam the back half of my property in joyful procyonidae abandon. Chow closes at dusk though, so they have to plan accordingly.

Seeing the news about Young Jedi Adventures, I feel like I need to change my proxy votes for Disney. Clearly they have ONLY adults in the room if their takeaway from the success of Skeleton Crew was; MORE KIDS!

That's as capitalist as it comes. The song Sixteen Tons is a documentary of those who literally fueled the industrial revolution while being relentlessly exploited by their employers.

So, the Elongated Muskrat's team is using AI to parse through treasury records looking for places to make cuts... absent any input of what things cost or what has value. Sit with that a minute and realize that you are next. AI is being weaponized against workers.

I was very conservative in college. I don't feel like I've changed so much as the Overton Window slid quite a ways to the right and I got pushed into the wild and wooly leftist box.
