Him desperately doing this tired old shit for dwindling crowds of increasingly tepid hogs is not the most just or satisfying end of his career but it does feel like the most realistic. He'll be selling gold and dick pills on fox commercials in 45 years.

this is part of a general trend: musk buying twitter, the forced sale of tik-tok to righties, etc etc. - it may not immediately manifest as more explicitly right-coded content being released, but something like james gunn's recent superman will be unimaginable in a few years.

It's a terrible piece, obviously. My question is: do you think things like Dem cowardice in the face of the GOP stealing an election had anything to do with "setting us on the path" we'd already been locked into for decades in 2000?

You see, I regularly look for music because I run a weekly game and I like mood music to my players. My players like it too. And the problem with ai music isn’t composition, technically it’s fine, the notes follow notes in ways that make sense. The problem is it’s empty, devoid of feeling.

You are measuring willingness to respond to a survey, not actual identity. Given the bathroom bans, bans on pride flags, renewed efforts to ban GSAs etc, it's not a surprise some kids prefer to not openly disclose orientation to a federal government survey.

They restricted these surveys in multiple states in the last few years. States moved to require opt in with parental consent to administer the surveys. Then the CDC stopped reporting data about gender identity in 2025. Given the broader anti LGBTQ hostility it's not a surprise numbers declined.

trying to have a narrative, a story, about the morals ethics of us living in this moment for an endpoint of "we think ICE should be mildly reformed. ...maybe." kinda undermines where you start from, because it makes it clear your morals and ethics are incredibly weak

To the original point, it’s very clear that some of what we perceive as accommodationist is actually institutions doing things they badly wanted to do but with Trump as their cover. Higher Ed, for example is lousy with administrators dying for any excuse to get rid of “the DEI stuff“.

Ten years of relentlessly hateful, comically elitist anti-democratic politics across the white people world, helpfully summarised. The wrong people are talking, the wrong people are deciding and it’s harming the careers of important people who actually matter. Smithers! Release the hounds
The incident fits a broader pattern in the discourse around 'free speech' and 'cancel culture': whatever comes from the top down is freedom; whatever comes from the bottom up is bullying and censorship. When Macklemore is dropped at the behest of the billionaire stadium owner Robert Kraft, it's an exercise of the freedom of businesses to 'demonstrate their values' by deciding whom to platform. But when Ed Sheeran's fans decide not to buy tickets to his performances, or even demand refunds, it's bullying, mob behaviour. Since most people are not billionaires and do not own stadiums, they can exercise meaningful power only collectively. The collective exercise of power must therefore be demonised.
