This is a great way to frame this... I also love my father. Granted, it's easier to love my dad because he didn't murder a bunch of people with drone warfare, but still a good way to answer a bad faith question.

I showed my 6 year old Enterprise last year and I kept saying 'This came out when I was around YOUR age!' ... I was in college when Enterprise aired. He is going to figure out what a fraud I am soon.

its not simply about boycotting meta. one company has made their products indispensable for communication in the modern world. they blocked lulas electoral ads the week before the election. theyre trying to sway public opinion against the victim of a gangrape. states need to intervene.

The case stems from a violent anti-ICE protest, but critics say the government's prosecution threatens First Amendment rights.

25 years of tech reporters not knowing what they were looking at, so the SV guys who gave them the most access got written up as geniuses because those stories allowed them to continue getting paid as tech reporters. And now we're here. Hucksters baiting dummies is the model because it's worked well

When 'power pitching' meant throwing 95-96 mph, it was novel and fun. Now, because of the optimization craze, it means 100 mph and it's incredibly boring.

I know you're not allowed to say this during the current debate, but the reason the left dominates academics, art, comedy, and music is that the right has stupid, discredited ideas, they're not funny, and dull resentment does not make for good art. No grand conspiracy required.

Personally, as a trans person who is a long-time WNBA fan, y'all gotta stop worrying about this. There's nothing you can do about shitty people being shitty. Stand on business, defend trans people, don't let the bigots think they are normal or right or accepted. The rest is out of your control.

the media in this country treats bigotry coming from a place of fear as a valid public position. eventually this leads you to the ludicrous place where “the muslim mayor of new york city shouldn’t attend the 25th anniversary commemoration of 9/11” is treated as newsworthy opinion
"This guy, I think, is just an in-your-face type of guy that — for lack of a better word — enjoys this kind of controversy.
I'm just not in favor of him being around, so if he didn't come, I'd say great, we would go. But if he's going to come, I would venture to say a lot of people might not go," said Hughes, who is now retired and lives on Long Island.
The grieving father said he disagrees with Mamdani's politics and expressed anger toward the mayor. "Just the thought of him there rubs me the wrong way," he said.
