Let's check in on how late-stage capitalism is doing! Oh, cost of living is going up...& so is cost of dying 🙃

Ok but what about north of 9:30 or 10pm when you're at home & sober or the gummy's wearing off? Curséd, darkness

Everyone loves to bash on mornings (wrong) but no one talks shit against the early afternoon. 2pm to 4:30pm, really god awful time of day

"no one ever thought of hitting anyone with a car before cyclists talked about it" is an INCREDIBLE take

Bsky post: Another thing worth noting is that cyclists did a lot of work to advance the drivers as murderers/cars as weapons narrative currently being employed by ICE

This parallels something I've been thinking about men who are into "looksmaxxing:" They say they do it to get women, but ugly guys get gfs all the time. What the looksmaxxers want is to be SO hot that they can get women _easily_, without putting forth effort, care, or consideration.

jacobcrites on Threads:

Reading Corey Doctorow’s new book on AI and in a book full of banger one-liners, so far this is my favorite:
“Practically everyone who falls for the AI hype is dreaming of getting a human need fulfilled without having to extend moral consideration.”

Came across these past wise words from my friend @mskellymhayes.bsky.social today:

They don't want you to understand that history matters. They don't want you to understand that political education and training matter. They want you to think you are going it alone, trying to invent the wheel in the streets. They want you to lack the tools you need to win. You are part of a larger lineage of resistance. That does not diminish you. It makes you even more powerful.

Alvin Foo, AI Strategist & Venture Partner at Zero2Launch LinkedIn post:
Elon Musk just gave the clearest AI timeline we've heard so far.

In under 10 minutes, thanks to AI, he lays out:
1) AI surpasses all human intelligence in ~5 years
2) Humans most likely lose control within 10 years
3) Most probably outcome: an age of amazing abundance
4) "Even if there was a stop button, we probably shouldn't press it"

Fucking miss jaboukie. Remember when he abused his checkmark & got banned from Twitter for this? I know he's #OnHere, but he doesn't post often.

a tweet that looks like it's from the FBI but it's actually jaboukie that reads: Just because we killed MLK doesn't mean we can't miss him.

They literally are, cos there aren't enough living wage jobs for everyone who needs one so, rather than provide UBI or interfere in the job market, they're eradicating/incarcerating ppl, esp BIPOC & physically vulnerable, so they can pretend free market capitalism works. Hope that clears things up.

I'm no expert but, I feel like between the concentration camps and the guns and the unaffordable healthcare and the using all the water and the diarrhea inducing produce, the government is like, trying to kill us.

Agree that this is a reflection of the economy/wages (& that everything is not fine!), but, possibly unpopular opinion: beef _should_ be expensive, because it's very bad for the environment.

A tweet with a link to a Money magazine article that says For the first time in history, the average pound of ground beef is higher than Federal Minimum Wage. Everything is not fine.

Trans people outside the Institute of Sexology in Germany, 1920s. The only place of its kind at the time, it studied the spectrum of gender & sexuality without pathologizing differences from the "norm," & had to be shut down because of the Nazis. TRANS PEOPLE HAVE ALWAYS EXISTED. Happy Pride month!
