a lot of the left is fundamentally addicted to reinventing bio-essentialism but feministly or wokely at the moment.

amounts to genuine malpractice that not only does the title not include "in violation of the constitution", but neither does the article itself.

this is completely unhidden corporate slavery. prison companies make money from prisoners (slaves) being offered (forced into) insanely low paid work (10 cents an hour!). imprisoning homeless people who cannot get work in better paid positions because they are homeless is naked forced slavery!!!

remember that time when there was a study that found that machine learning algorithms trained on images of lung scans to detect cancer were more likely to detect cancer if there was a hand in the image (because doctors were pointing out the cancer). and like, we all forgot that AI is That fallible?

there is a market argument for social democracy which is very simple. the more money you spend on public services, the less the public spends on privately servicing those needs, and the more they spend on goods and services which have higher VAT and the more the economy grows - thus more tax income

money isn't money. money is power. when people get upset about the distribution of money, either in the micro or macro, they're really getting upset about the distribution of power. which, when you put it like that, makes a lot more sense.

this extends to like, the way we talk about sex to be honest. we used to 'take a lover' or 'have a lover'. now we're 'sleeping with someone' or 'fuckbuddies'. the former existed in an imperfect society and was imbued with the misogyny of its time, but imo it is bad to remove the love from casual sex

lucaquinn.bsky.social @lucaquinn.bsky.social · 03/06/2026
there was a time when the soundtrack of sex was the same as the soundtrack of love and recently they have diverged and i think that has been quite bad for our social and sexual wellbeing as a society to be honest.

the greatest failing of Bari Weiss is to think she can win a publicity war on trust with one of the most trusted broadcast reporters in the united states because "the public doesn't trust the mainstream media" - in fact the public trusts Scott Pelley, even if this does not always extend to CBS News

the headline remains that the turnout was only 31.5%. any indication this makes of the makeup of the political scene is limited by that fact.

americans love writing about politics like this. "am i the only one???" when you are demonstrably not. it's a self-centred way of thinking about politics - noticings, individual reactions, and personal feelings, over organisation, shared notions of the world, and communication.

Idk man, I think the journalists who have been traumatized the most were not sitting in that room tonight. The feds gassed the shit out of us, knocked us over, sent in the local PD to harass, detain, and hurt us, shot a teenaged photographer in the face and he lost an eye, and that's just in LA

Now deleted Twitter post from Debra Lea @thedebralea. It reads Shooter at WH Correspondence dinner. Shooter is dead. Thank you secret service.

alternatively, they will have killed a journalist and name them as the "shooter", and this will be used as the justification of huge crackdowns on journalism.
