Oh yeah—I meant it’s hard to convince normal people who don’t follow this shit that these guys mean what they’re saying. It’s been a problem with right-wing stuff for a decade; normal people expect that these guys are basically normal, so when you list off what they’re doing, YOU seem unhinged 🤷‍♂️

A problem is that many people know that the vast majority of the people who voted for the fascist in chief in 2024 would vote for him again today. So folks know that many people are politically untrustworthy. It adds to the malaise.

Yankees-Red Sox being a wild card series is how things always should have been. This is a minor regional dispute that they need to settle amongst themselves before playing the rest of the country

This is why AI companies are claiming their products will end the world if not regulated. They want government to slow down the arms race that's creating negative 90% return. Preferably before the bubble bursts.

The problem is even more fundamental. LLMs do not understand causation or logic. They only understand correlation. Which means, even with full token context, they will always have the chance to hallucinate.

I literally don’t know a single woman who hasn’t been raped, stalked, groped, harassed, or sexually violated in some way at some point in their life. If you choose to doubt and dox survivors, just know every woman in your life is disgusted by you.

This is so important. They’ve broken the economic models that fund journalism is because they recognize the *purpose* of journalism threatens their bullshit-based valuations, ie, the sources of their wealth and power. Yet actual-existing journalists were instead crucial for creating their myths.

I went to a bar with a friend from work and asked where the bathroom was and the bartender offered to show me and then locked me in the bathroom with him and kissed me and felt me up and wouldn't take no for an answer. I finally got him out and now I've locked myself in here. I don't know what to do. I need to leave but I have drinks on my tab. I think I need to just bolt

A sitting U.S. senator unable to parse that a D.C. official went to an Iowa Hawkeyes game to see Caitlin Clark play and wanted him to be at an Atlanta Hawks game for a conspiracy theory would be so funny if he wasn't going to see the one player they're obsessed over and use to hurt trans people.

A thing I learned about Meta when I was trying to understand how their statements relate to their actions a few years ago is that *they just tell absolutely indefensible lies* and journalists almost always let them. They believed no one would ever punish them for it in any way that matters.

If you like me are a survivor of rape who is maybe losing her mind a bit this week, I recommend a few movies about surviving men/holding them accountable: “Sorry, Baby” “Is God Is” and “Supergirl” Supergirl was, in a way, about fraternity rape culture I discuss them here:

You should go see Supergirl
It's pop art that is unapologetically political.
