Sanders only became coach to get his kids exposure/drafted and to build his brand. That’s whatever but I thought that was pretty obvious. But all the “discourse” around Sanders play is the most shameless media engagement and rage baiting I think I’ve ever seen. Insane stuff, have some pride.

That Jacobin article about Dump's tariffs is an all timer. The old world, where people could kind of afford to buy groceries and got 90% more SNAP benefits, is dying. This is good actually. Do editors or standards not exist anymore?

Given the "prowess" (derogatory) of most of the coordinators the Seahawks have rolled out since 2010, history has been very kind to John Schneiders role in crafting the Seahawks into one of the 5 best teams since 2010. I'll be surprised if we don't make a couple deep playoff runs in the next 5 years

1) it was always fascism and fascism was the right word to use 2) they are building concentration camps and concentration camps are the right words to use 3) they are banning books and book bans is a fine way to describe the myriad ways they are banning them

Anytime you can trade your aging defensive back for an aging DB that is your newly minted 200m dollar star receiver's least favorite player you really have to do it. I don't know how the Steelers continue to avoid judgement for their 6 year run of getting smoked by 17 points in the playoffs.

Kind of? The stupidity of Bush was more "look at this cowboy ass idiot who loves war and bombs" and I think it was my generations first real exposure to the pointless brutality of USA rah rah war machine. That's my read on it at least. Graduated HS in 2003 fwiw.

This sounds like a bit but I’m being serious: kids using chat gpt for their homework are denying themselves the invaluable experience of learning how to bullshit their way through a problem. You drink some caffeine the night before and figure it the fuck out. That’s a skill. You need it in life.

I started at around 30. You best BELIEVE that if I had the resources available now, when I was younger, I would have started much much earlier. Gender-affirming care for trans youth IS LIFESAVING. Make all the noise possible. If they won’t let us dream, we won’t let them sleep.

I’m losing a nontrivial amount of respect for people who are blaming the passage out of the House of the reconciliation bill on dead Democrats, and there are way more and way smarter people doing it than should be.

this is a letter to the editor from a high school track runner who came in second to a trans girl in a race. her state house rep in maine started talking about it. so she wrote this: www.pressherald.com/2025/05/14/r...
Rep. Laurel Libby, R-Auburn, recently used my second-place finish in the 1,600-meter run, and that of my teammate in the 800-meter run, to malign Soren Stark-Chessa, the trans-identified athlete who finished first.

One of the reasons I chose to run cross-country and track is the community: Teammates cheering each other on, athletes from different schools coming together, and the fact that personal improvement is valued as much as, if not more than, the place we finish.

Last Friday, I ran the fastest 1,600-meter race I have ever run in middle school or high school track and earned varsity status by my school’s standards. I am extremely proud of the effort I put into the race and the time that I achieved. The fact that someone else finished in front of me didn’t diminish the happiness I felt after finishing that race. I don’t feel like first place was taken from me. Instead, I feel like a happy day was turned ugly by a bully who is using children to make political points.

We are all just kids trying to make our way through high school. Participating in sports is the highlight of high school for some kids. No one was harmed by Soren’s participation in the girls’ track meet, but we are all harmed by the hateful rhetoric of bullies, like Rep. Libby, who want to take sports away from some kids just because of who they are.

I can't believe this game is dead, why would I ever play this now, how could you do this to us? Courtesy of fgcharts.com , this is just Steam. If you like a game, play the game, learn and get better. There will always be other players in the FGC somewhere. If you have two people you have a scene.

Heart warming and a bit hilarious to see the idea of a safe community being discovered in real time by some people. “You mean you don’t think certain people should belong here based on what they think and say?” YES! It’s not Let’s Discuss With Nazi Punks and Maybe Ask Them To Reconsider.

I hope everyone working on LLMs has reckoned with their role in building a technology that, so far, has offered little to no benefit to humanity — while causing real harm by degrading art, undermining labor in creative industries, and straight up automating political propaganda

every day there are new horrors for gender-marginalized people and women--trump going after the equal credit opportunity act, loss of body autonomy, exterminationist anti-trans attacks ramping up--and every single day we have to talk about "male loneliness" and "it's a brutal time to be a young man"
