Based on the color of the campaign signs I saw there are no Republicans running for anything in CT this year. Do they think people will accidentally vote for them if they think they're Democrats? I'd prefer statements denouncing the party's platforms but yeah, changing colors is sure to be enough

I think this is one of those US/UK divided by a common language things. The US spells it "beastiality" and the UK spells it "why the fuck is the FBI director talking about it in front of Congress"

Discomfort is an essential part of growth and wouldn’t it be so embarrassing to be the exact same person thirty years from now, in a totally different world, because you were so averse to discomfort?

Once you start noticing how the incapacity to handle discomfort affects how people live their lives it's actually pretty shocking how it ruins pretty much every conceivable aspect of existence. Interpersonal relationships, romantic and platonic. Career and education opportunities. Your politics Your willingness to go anywhere. The kind of food you eat. The kind of art you expose yourself to and your ability to read it. It's never just one thing, it touches everything, and once you notice it it's like suddenly being able to see germs or something. Just this horrific catastrophe people look at you askance for screaming about. As I grow older and see what became of my friends and peers who could not learn to handle discomfort, the more I'm like. This is a genuine societal issue

Increasing my discomfort tolerance has also been one of the greatest assets to improving my mental health.

I think this should be understood as the sequel to the generational right-wing takeover of the judiciary. If the only people who can make a sustainable career in the military or civil service are pale, male, and belong in jail, you eventually end up with a far-right deep state. That's very bad.

I think one reason data center outrage is so pronounced is people spent decades recycling and composting and otherwise scrimping to offset energy use and protect clean water, and the second we hit an inflection point for cheap electricity the banking industry said we’re taking all of it, fuck you
