Lol this is barely even an article or an insight into the behavior of a generation, it's a puff piece about a product manager at Microsoft (a company that had hinged its future on AI acceptance) who also has their own AI startup. A couple paragraphs with 3 key takeaways at the bottom. Embarrassing

Great day for butt-hurt libs to rage on Piker for pointing out the US does a lot of terrorism in the world.

This was the big weakness with third wave type viewpoints; undue focus on the fact that the person making the choice is a woman, and leaving all other social and economic pressures and knock-on effects out and only considering the aspect of a woman having agency in a situation...

WRT trans folks being so angry at Dems, feel like a lot of libs are missing the context that we saw Dems completely cave to or even enable the Republican corruption of the organic wellspring of "black lives matter" esque support after George Floyd--a public concern that helped them win in 2020...

Talarico out there swinging like a colostomy bag, splashing his shit all over the floor when pressed to speak on a Republican hobbyhorse talking point, and people on here genuinely incredulous "how could he fuck up this bad" as though this hasn't been standard Dem operating procedure for decades.

The other day I asked ChatGPT how to operate a Federal Formscan 6100 instrument. It said it couldn't find a copy of the instructions and proceeded to give me general operational steps for that class of instrument... ...which, cuz of the "scan" in the name, it interpreted to be a document scanner.

To dems who are missing the point of the criticisms of this move by Jimmy Jim Jim; change "transgender surgeries" to "partial birth abortions". If he agreed with fox news that partial birth abortion was a serious problem/required legislation, would you still be all "harsh but necessary"?

The cuts to bus service will get worse without bold leadership from the Oregon Legislature next session. Will we restore and expand public transit? Or will we continue to give billions of dollars to ODOT for their costly, polluting freeway expansions? www.wweek.com/news/2026/08...

‘Historic’ Service Cuts Are Now Arriving for TriMet Riders
The service reductions were first announced in January, as a state transportation funding package crumbled in the face of a Republican-led grassroots revolt.

Listen I just think it's curious that Shoenbrun would rather cast a talentless hack nepobaby (who has secured an HBO comedy special and HBO steaming show purely based on connections) in a lead role in one of her films vs an unknown trans-woman actress--which would be a first for her surprisingly.

Syn @synnviks.bsky.social · 22/08/2026
Got blocked by someone whose opinions I found a lot of insight in because I couldn't resist calling Hannah Einbinder a nepobaby (which she absolutely is in the worst possible way). Clearly this is because the world is hostile to trans people who are outspoken and have opinions!

Also what the fuck is this sentence “Jeremy Moss and Abdul El-Sayed are young, diverse progressive millennials”. That is two people. Two people cannot be “diverse” that’s not what that MEANS

It’s too bad 6 Councilors force the community to mobilize on red alert for the bare minimum of being listened to. And even then they only make the barest gestures that they care what we think. Luckily we have recourse in November.

My amendment with @counciloravalos.bsky.social to limit the City’s commitment to $120M instead of $395M given that we have exactly zero details about what our dollars will fund just failed 5-7. Had the amendment passed we could have used the Spectator Fund to bond for the $120M. Now we can’t.

Jamie Dunphy saying he's gonna vote no for any amendment to the Moda center term sheet due to what amounts to his deeply held fee fees is so transparently slimy and hilarious. What an absolute joke.

Far out in the Pacific Ocean, there are tiny islands that few have seen. The oceans around them are full of marine life, from thriving coral reefs to sharks and tuna. The Trump administration is rolling back protections for these places. NPR got a rare visit to a remote area to see what’s at stake.

These are some of the last pristine ocean ecosystems. Now, they're losing protections
The largest conservation areas in the U.S. are in the Pacific Ocean, where tiny islands are epicenters of biodiversity. The Trump administration is now opening their waters to commercial fishing, sparking a battle over some of the country’s most pristine ecosystems.
