I think it’s probably just a coincidence so many teachers are reporting that gen alpha and gen z are functionally illiterate and the steep rise in fascism in this country

Yeah, I was never a huge fan of of the go off kings guys in particular- | just knew them more or less as "the bernie bros who play video games on twitch" from like 10 years ago and they were friendly with lefty podcast hosts I listened to

I just found out that the hantavirus isn't like covid- in that it's mainly spread by exposure to rat feces or by kissing someone. so the good news is I'm halfway safe, I just probably need to go buy some rat traps to fully lock it down

I vaguely remember hearing somewhere that towards the end of his life Isaac Newton got really into the paranormal or something? Maybe I made that up- either way I wasn’t sure so I googled it and i,,
It’s the google search results for the term, “isaac newton ghosts” zoomed in on a result from quora where the question being posed is, “How did the ghost of Isaac Newton affect you personally?”

a really important skill related to organizing is the ability to talk to regular people who just genuinely don't know the stuff you know and be able to persuade them to seeing things your way

There’s some kind of immersive interactive play I keep getting ads for where the hook is it’s a mock trial and you as the audience act as the jury and I guess at the end you all deliberate and get to vote on the outcome or something Yeah, that’s just jury duty man. You know that thing people avoid?

"Musk pledged two years ago to build a state-of-the-art water recycling plant in Memphis to guarantee that his xAI servers wouldn’t deplete the city’s groundwater" "Now that Musk’s first data center is up and running, construction on the recycling facility has come to an abrupt halt"

Musk promised his data center would reuse water. That's now stalled.
Elon Musk’s artificial intelligence company abruptly stopped work on a water reuse facility meant to alleviate strain on the Memphis-area water supply. Nobody’s saying why.

At this point in order for US public transit to catch up to the rest of the developed world we would have to spend an estimated $4.6 trillion over the next 20 years.

This statement is meant to be left-punching, but notice that the most popular left-wing candidates (Bernie, Mamdani, AOC) are superb at plain-spokenness, and it is the moderate wing that usually offers language that has been optimized and focus-grouped to death

I think I figured out a way to get zoomers excited about cycling
Two identical illustrations of a proposed cycling lane- one on the left, the other on the right- separated by a dotted line drawn down the middle. The left one is labeled “Millennial PR Team” and the caption above it says, 

"Dedicated space for people biking that is physically separated from vehicles on higher traffic streets. Lane separation can be created with concrete barriers, plastic curbs and bollards, and by shifting parking lanes further from the curb."

The second one on the right is labeled, “Gen Z social team”. It’s the exact same illustration, but they’ve put a bunch of flame/sparkle/nail polish emojis around it, and the caption above it reads,

"Lowkenuinely bikemaxxing in a safe space away from whips."

So bc of the effect the war in Iran is having on gas prices the epa has rolled back restrictions to allow the sale of gas that’s 15% ethanol, as opposed to the standard 10. Ethanol burns faster meaning you’ll get significantly less mileage out of the same (now overly expensive) gasoline.

The ethanol fuel blend is typically cheaper to produce and buy, but isn't recommended for all vehicles.

brilliant. we took away the very concept of a pension, replaced them with 401Ks, destroyed the stock market, and then eroded those same 401Ks to the point where matching barely still exists, and now we’re just putting it entirely on the private sector. This is a nightmare.

people are always so negative about AI. They’re always saying “algorithms have ruined social media! blah blah blah” but these are the kinds of targeted ads I get as a cyclist Still think AI is “awful”??
It’s a real ad I got served on instagram. The top of it is an ugly AI slop illustration of a cyclist riding his road bike and the ad copy says, “Temu Men’s Cycling Wear CLEARANCE” “Everything Must Go!”

and underneath it the products they’re showing are just a bunch of pantiesIt’s a zoomed in shot of the previous picture on the panties for sale Another real ad I got on instagram. It’s more AI slop, but this time it’s an illustration of a peloton of cyclists, and the ad says, “Temu Glasses Clearance” “EVERYTHING MUST GO”

And then below it we see a woman in a “sexy(?)” Halloween costume dressed as Woody from Toy Story, a little girl on a beach in a skin tight leotard thing, and then some pink spandex shorts (maybe for cycling? But I’ve literally never seen anyone cycling clothes like it) with these weird padded protrusions sewn along the thigh and butt I zoomed in on all the weird products for sale that I described in the alt text for the previous image.

Oh, and it probably goes without saying, but absolutely none of these things are glasses 😭
