They're 20 years deep in some kind of dead end delusion that doing nothing is actually the cleverest, most sophisticated, most effective and most ethical thing a politician can do. Wonk brain trapped by the sound of one hand clapping

"Making products" is a bug in the modern economy, not a feature. Companies that stubbornly insist on prioritizing "making products" will continue to be punished for it.

We need something on the level of shut the fuck up Friday just to remind people that THE SPYING ON YOU IS THE POINT this is the evolution of "if you aren't paying for it, you're the product" Gmail is free because THE SPYING ON YOU IS THE POINT Claude is available for your use because THE SPYING etc

A smiling doofus who saves squirrels constantly is a much better comic book character than some brooding alien god doing nothing but snarly fistfights with other alien gods

He's like a professional scapegoat. By going out first and going too hard he lets the rest of the Rape Culture Defense Force go farther than they otherwise would have without seeming as bad as him. He stretches the Overton window toward rape by overstepping it.

Damn a mean anime schoolgirl I can't believe someone finally invented that. It's so fucking amazing that the entire country of anime didn't have that character archetype before and now people who are into it have no choice but to butt chug butterbeer about it

When a dog that's normally chill gets aggro or anxious around someone it's almost always because they're keyed in to their owner's anxiety, meaning a dog will frequently reinforce their owner's subconscious biases. Taking that reinforcement as confirmation and justification is pretty awful shit.

Seeing so many people going "maybe,, this guy,,, doesn't need to be punished,,," and remembering that other guy we remorselessly ran out of youtubetown for plagiarism 2 years ago. Hard to conclude anything other than "the YouTube video essay audience considers rape less serious than plagiarism"

The definition of too much wealth is easy: it's when they start telling you you can't live in a normal neighborhood anymore and have to move to a compound, with security.

But the answer is closer to "everybody knows it's completely against the interests of running the company effectively in the medium to long term, but it provides a short term improvement to the balance sheet, and that's all that matters"

I once worked for a company that was in the grips of "previous ownership sold the office and laboratory complex and rented it back, what an insane decision, we have to take on debt to buy it back" At the time I thought that meant "sell and lease back" was a fad, that it was being discredited.

I don't want to fully fall into the trap of "every financial thing is comparable to a family budget," but If a family sold their house to someone and then rented it back from them, that would be pretty universally recognized as a sign of desperation

Most of American morality works this way: if you're the right sort of person, excuses will be made for your conduct. If you're the wrong sort of person, your innocent conduct can be criminalized.

In a world that makes sense, rape is a crime and rapist is a word for people who commit it. In American culture, rapist is a kind of frightening stock character that a person can be, and if a person isn't that character, America will find an excuse to call their conduct "not rape".

I like to keep the search for fun things I like to spend free time on separate from the search for meaning in life, it seems like a lot of fandom types conflate the two
