And these angry "But mutual aid!" comments always come from people who... clearly don't even know the first thing about what farm workers are up against. Which they would... if they'd ever actually done any of that mutual aid that they're talking about for farm workers... interesting

9/ Now's also the time to mask in crowded indoor spaces, especially if you’re at higher risk or spending time with someone who is. Air filters or even opening windows is also a great way to mitigate spread. If you're sick, stay home if possible.

7/ All that said, the flu is already starting to pick up unusually early this year, especially in the West. So I wouldn’t wait until October to think about it. If you haven’t gotten your flu vaccine yet, now is a good time to schedule it for maximum protection.

Campus sexual assault is not an “institutional problem” merely in the sense that assault takes place at an institution. It is an “institutional problem” in the sense that the institution fosters the conditions for the problem, punishes the victims, and colludes with the perpetrators to cover it up.

Studies dating back to the 80s have found that men are not just “confused” about consent. They just don’t prioritize consent over things like power, domination, and sexual gratification. Men participating in a gang rape know they don’t have the victim’s consent.

People casually using genAI instead of their own creativity or capacity for thought genuinely feels like a huge values difference now, on a very fundamental level. We do not hold the same things to be important or worthwhile.

in reality Democrats are the only US party interested in child benefits. conservatives and centrists hate the welfare state, they think the working class must be forced to work by the threat of destitution. so every policy must have a work requirement, which is impossible for stay at home parents

Norway has solution to this actually, stay at home parents can get their share of the public daycare subsidy as cash, that way parents are not pushed one way or the other. the problem of course is virtually no one on the center or right actually gives a shit about parents

Cannot overstate how lovely it is to have a great Secondhand kids clothing store down the street. Baby Lemke is growing like a weed and buying new full price baby clothes is a ridiculous concept when she is growing out of things so quickly.

The baby spent all day yesterday eating and all day today sleeping so I can only assume she’s going to grow even longer to impress the pediatrician even more at her next appointment (she is a very long baby already)

It becomes a LOT easier to argue to the general public that we shouldn't let the AI industry regulate itself when you can ALSO produce clear evidence that much of the AI industry appears to be steered by genuinely crazy weirdos with anti-social and anti-human ideas.

AI's initial sales pitch was "we are providing capital with the final weapon in their war on labor" and that didn't seem to appeal to the labor side of the political spectrum, for some reason.

One of James Telerico or Ken Paxton will be the next senator from Texas. If you're telling people not to support Telerico, you're saying you want Paxton to win. That's it. You cannot select a different, third bespoke person to be senator like buying a tailored suit.
