There are many good arguments in favor of human recaps but one no one has said yet is that they rock to read! People describing the events, the feeling, the momentum of the game and telling the story creates great writing! Good writing is good in all settings and it is better to have than AI slop.

This is such an INSANE example of the way that labor and creation are lost in thinking objects. People ask AI because computer is unbiased calculator ... but it's not! It's made by guys with political interests and analytical biases! You're just asking rich people who to vote for you absolute rubes!

ok new test: if you think rape is bad and should never be tolerated, like and repost this. if you think rape is a “complex issue,” just type “not all sexual assault is rape” in the comments.

Maybe I'm the insane one, but perhaps a rape enabling society is im fact the precondition for becoming a right wing grifter as a career pivot in the wake of consequences for sexual assault. I dunno just spitballing. Also "he might do a bad thing" is a dumb reason not to punish shitty actions!

There are all these hopeful, and very funny at republicans' expense, polls coming out, but I can't help imagining that democrats hate this shit and are holed up trying to figure out how to shirk the mandate that would come with a wave election.

Like if "they don't meet their goals" is just The Deal. Then why do we trust ANYTHING they say about AI projects, or usefulness or anything at all, and that was where this thread started that there's no reason to believe these guys

Yourson Smells @tailboi.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
The goals of the tech, low atmosphere orbit, the moon, etc. And the goals thing is in fact a HUGE DEAL because it speaks to this whole situation of why not to trust these companies because they lie all the time and their shit doesn't do what they say it will. That's the whole point!

But ... ok ... in the current economic framework of speculative investment i don't think you can reasonably say that a successful business (makes money) is the same as good or effective products (do what they're supposed to)

Yourson Smells @tailboi.bsky.social · 03/10/2026
I think you can ... SpaceX keeps blowing up rockets and not meeting its stated goals. Tesla cars largely suck and are wildly overpriced. Starlink is maybe the only ok one but it suffers from outages all the time and provides poor coverage and responsiveness.

Aside from PayPal I think there's a strong case to be made that all of those are actually bad products that suck and do their job poorly and benefit almost exclusively from his inaccurate reputation and branding and massive investment based thereon.

I wonder if there is a lesson that everyone likes conservative ideas in theory but hates them in practice and at the level of outcome and resist leftist ideas in theory but love them when implemented... huh impossible to parse this I guess.

Not to be flippant about this, but it's like A. a moral duty to do it and B. it feels like a super power when someone says something that sucks and you tell them it sucks and they start freaking out. It's like you cast a spell of Harm Racist on them and it feels good as hell.

Sometimes my brain starts to melt when I remember that we the people elected a president who doesn't know how the government works and just says stuff that is wildly unconstitutional and no one says "sir it doesn't work like that" and instead they respond "well, looks like those are the rules now."

Your Opponent is a drooling maniac backed by a publicly pro sexual abuse infrastructure who is shouting about the need to inspect children's genitals. It seems the strategy would be to say "this is gross and weird" not "maybe they have a point"

One cool thing about Texas is that sometimes you stop to get gas and then find a really good burger spot inside the gas station. Shouts out to Shark's Burgers and the very effusive man who works there.
One half of a burger with two patties, onions, peppers, and mushrooms.

not a novel thought but ... if this is the case then maybe disavowing the pillars of republican decision making (pro corporate, anti public service, tech/military subservient, gender normative, etc) seems like an obvious strategy rather than going "republican light"

"Why?" is a question you might ask if you have Alfredo sauce for gray matter, so I'll explain. If you provide a rights framework that accepts SOME compromise then you are creating the space for MORE compromise a space Fascists ALWAYS exploit! You need principles tied to politics to say FUCK OFF with

Yourson Smells @tailboi.bsky.social · 18/09/2026
ONCE AGAIN - if you're someone who is like "we have to sacrifice trans rights to stop the fascists" you are STUPID. If you want to stop fascism you have to make a case for its opposite as a social good - that means defending universal human rights which includes Trans People you gravy brained toads!

me, last year, in jewschool jewschool.com/zionism-is-j...
We are witnessing the instrumentalization of Jews by white supremacists and state actors who use our community to justify agendas that have nothing to do with our well-being—crackdowns on academic freedom, suppression of immigrant rights, and the erosion of civil liberties—with the complicity or even outright support of our communal institutions. Even as Jewish students and professors were themselves assaulted and arrested during crackdowns, Jewish leaders endorsed repression of campus protests, advancing the idea that others’ rights are being curtailed for our sake. In Australia, new protest restrictions were justified as necessary to fight antisemitism but were clearly designed to target climate activists. In the U.S., Jews are being positioned as mascots for the carceral state while being set up to take the fall when that state fails. We are being placed in the crosshairs of the backlash.

This racial triangulation—placing Jews in a privileged position over other marginalized groups while painting us as victims—is designed to collapse under pressure. When the public sees that Jews are shielded while others are punished, resentment builds, and antisemitic narratives about Jewish control are reinforced. This is not a defense of Jews. It is a setup. A bait-and-switch. A means of laundering white nationalist goals through Jewish legitimacy.

I do think this is different in some ways from the kinda like "Harris chases Cheney and friends". He hasn't been as explicit in chasing them or reigning in across the board but this, the trans stuff, and his campaign hires are really discouraging.

It's kinda bizarre to me that Talarico ran a left if center primary, won, cane out of if polling ahead of Paxton and has chosen to moderate away from everything that set the stage for his victory. This sucks.
