I’m glad the USA built up the hugest, most destructive military apparatus in the history of the world so that this pathetic creep can use it to act out his deep psychosexual issues

a few years ago, references to Simon of Trent or Leo Frank trutherism were a sign that someone was an intensely Christian and/or Neo-Nazi right-wing antisemite but now formerly-normal lefty politics influencers who stayed on Twitter casually reply to Mamdani with 15th century blood libel posts

i agree with the key point here and will add to it that there IS a reward, it’s knowing you did one right thing instead of walking around plagued by the nameless shame that afflicts all men who are determined to live the most frictionless lives possible

There were more men in a single documented gang rape at one school than the number of competitive trans athletes nationally. But I’ve heard a lot more politicians being asked about protecting girls from one of these scenarios and not another… I’ll let you guess which is which.

I'm not an expert and not systematically crunching numbers, but the Billboard chart measurements have changed so much in the age of streaming that being #1 doesn't mean the same thing it used to. "Choosin' Texas" is #1 this week with 22m streams, 58m radio plays, and 6,000 sales. By comparison...

Seeing so many people treat Trump as a wealth totem actually clarified this for me. Their understanding of the economy is simply "rich people vote Republican, therefore if I vote Republican, I will be rich."

Oligarchs. The word for very rich businesspeople directly connected to the top of the government and playing a role in high-level government functions is “oligarchs.” Way beyond lobbying, donating, and advisory councils. Trump brought them on his trip to China too. America has oligarchs now.

My Fitbit is a few years old and losing its ability to hold a charge. I hate the app since it was changed from Fitbit to Google Health, so now might be the time to get a different fitness tracker, but are any of them actually good/usable at this point?

One of the basic points in Mills' The Racial Contract (originally published in 1997!) was that, if nothing else, White Supremacy deserves to be taken seriously as one of the great motivating ideologies of modernity and it's bizarre that political philosophers are so disinclined to treat it as such.

If we have all observed that rideshare apps eventually became "taxis but worse" and streaming apps eventually became "cable but worse," let's think about what AI apps will eventually become when the true costs start being passed on to the user.

Any political content my TikTok algorithm shows me is liberal to leftist, but every day the comments on each video get more racist, misogynistic, homophobic, and antisemitic, to a degree that shocks me.

At this point, I kind of don't even understand why they're tired of being called racist. They deeply love racism, it's their top priority and most strongly held value, they pursue it obsessively every day, why do they care that liberals think it's bad?
