I do not think we should have a death penalty. I don't think it is any kind of deterrent. I think it's barbaric. I think it makes us all worse people. All of us. And we just don't have to do this to ourselves. We could abolish it, and we should.

right, yes. the thing about tradwife culture is that the only responsibility the patriarch has is to properly dominate his wife. note that the tradwife content is frequently the household's primary source of income -- in reality, the husband is something more like a pimp.

i really can’t bring myself to care about AI anthropomorphism debates. “is AI thinking?” i don’t know. is a calculator calculating? questions for the philosophers. what’s important is that we put sam altman in prison.

This is the wildest part of teaching k12 for me. So many parents and students have planned their whole lives around professional or collegiate athletics.

I truly, deeply, sincerely do think the guy flipping burgers at McDonalds should be able to afford rent, bills, and groceries with his paycheck alone. That's kind of the whole point of having a job and I can't believe this is considered a radical position.🤷🏽‍♀️

This is why most faculty cannot make sense of the 'woke' University trope. Our lived experiences bear little resemblance to it. This is far closer to the norm.

Medusa but her hair is an anaconda

Medusa with a single anaconda for hair. She wears a grey chiton and stubbornly strides to the left, dragging the heavy snake, which trails sullenly along behind

Medusa with a single anaconda for hair. It is completely coiled around her, leaving only her angry yellow eyes visible, and a single hand lifted to flip off the world

Medusa with a single anaconda for hair. She wears a grey towel and is scrubbing the snake. A bar of soap sits in a small puddle off to the left

tax is policy. it's as much about what you make easy to do and what you make hard to do as it is about revenue generation. you can just stop or at least not incentivize so many socially destructive things

I can understand how a normal person in 2001 could get sincerely swept up in the tsunami of fear and grief and become a mark for propaganda. There’s no excuse for it this time. It’s so stupid and unconvincing that, to fall for it, you’d need to have wanted to fall for it well in advance

She also really debunks the common justifications about religion, region, and age. Your grandparents and parents have shitty values because they have shitty values, not because of anything else. They could do better. Anyone can use their eyes to see the world and have the correct read.

The whole point of the Bill of Rights is to protect the only true minority - the individual. It limits the governments power to harm the individual. The whole constitution is designed to limit the governments power.

Mainstream Respectable opinion is that people joking about a bad person's death represents a culture of cruelty, but really it represents a culture of impunity. It's a coping mechanism for watching someone do evil their whole life and never seeing consequences

Trying to pick apart a woman's text messages to prove she's lying about being raped is gutter behavior. Consent can be revoked at any time and reading insinuations into text messages that the sender denies were there is ACTUAL journalistic malpractice. I would not trust a man who does this!

I believe people who do horrible things can make amends and reform their ways. In the cases of abusing power the path to healing means the perpetrator giving up power and being prevented from regaining power over others.

This is an important point that it seems like a lot of people don't fully grasp. We don't impose *legal* penalties until something is proved to appropriate standards in a court case. But we don't need legal findings to make judgements like "I don't trust him" and vote for someone else.

Maybe now we can also mention the endorsement for the white supremacist conspiracy theorist, the way he channeled Protocols of Elders of Zion, his silence in response to an explicit Nazi endorsement? Not because Platner was himself a Nazi; because he was, & is, a disingenuous opportunistic asshole.

The interesting thing about why Norway dominates at international sports is that they have a culture of not permitting ranking or competition in kids before they turn 12. It promotes cooperation and enjoyment instead. Along with affordable access, it means sports there are more equitable.
