Zork @zorknogg.bsky.social · 13hYou can really tell he’s locked in and on message a month before the midterms. 010
Zork @zorknogg.bsky.social · 22hI think Mamdani is absorbing a ton of attention and critique that’s kind of standing in for the reality that there is no socialist bloc with the power to actually affect US foreign policy, and no socialist labor movement either. 010
Zork @zorknogg.bsky.social · 22hIt’s crazy how the Republican Party is funded by like 4 people now. Elon alone has enough money to fund one of the two major political parties indefinitely. Seems bad for democracy. 100
Zork @zorknogg.bsky.social · 07/10/2026Basically half (or more) of referendum questions on almost any ballot will boil down to manipulating voters into giving big business more money and power. I kind of hate them, even when the results are good at times, it’s just a bad system. 010
Zork @zorknogg.bsky.social · 07/10/2026I said it last year and the year before that, and I’ll say it again: THIS is the year that Brewers are gonna win it all 000
Zork @zorknogg.bsky.social · 06/10/2026The last couple seasons were absolutely terrible, capped off with an ending that made the entire show pointless. Probably no franchise that popular has been destroyed that quickly before. 000

Reposted by Zorkrax ‘levon honkers’ king @raxkingisdead.bsky.social · 02/10/2026there's more than a hint of 'noble savage' in the way people outside the trades talk about those jobs and especially those workers. there's a reason people leave those jobs for less physically demanding ones if the option becomes available! enough salt-of-the-earth rhapsodizing! 1165654
Zork @zorknogg.bsky.social · 02/10/2026All the “AI is conscious/could be conscious” stuff is really odd to me since we haven’t even got a good answer to “what is consciousness?” yet. We aren’t even sure how to talk about it in a coherent way. 000
Zork @zorknogg.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Wow kinda crazy that the Pope rejects an idea that isn’t found anywhere in the Bible or Christian tradition. Hope he’ll reconsider 000

Zork @zorknogg.bsky.social · 06/09/2026The issue with MAHA is that it’s really not about going after corporate power in food and medicine. They don’t care. It’s more about destroying public health as such. 020
