Some of my fellow SEIU members whine that their dues fund political propaganda, whereas I would like to see a lot more of it

Man, every lawyer I know is a huge U2 fan. All they talk about is doing pro Bono work. Like, there’s a crisis going on, literally listen to another band.

For the record, this is satire. You can Google the guy and see his other LinkedIn posts and his comments on this one. I hate being a buzzkill,* but I don't love how easily people get taken in and outraged on Bluesky, the Good, Smarter Social Media Website™. *Not really, I kind of love it, tbh.

Honestly I think this is just an excuse to include AI stuff in elementary and college education, and workplace trainings. You’d want to do that out of laziness, cost cutting, etc

They put a button labeled "make me mad" in my enclosure and every time I press it I get poked with a pin. I thought there might be a monthly limit or something but so far it seems like you get unlimited presses

If all these white collar jobs could be replaced by AI in 18 months, then many of them really ought to be replaceable by computer programs that exist today (like reminders from Outlook), so why aren’t they?

Very sick of upper middle class parents insisting they have no choice to be ruthless cutthroat monsters in the elementary schools because “[the] system forces them to compete for survival at every level”.

Californians have good muscle memory for this. No, I don’t love him, but who else am I going to vote for for governor? The guy who campaigned with a live bear and got pissed when people asked him about the bear?

It kind of gives away the “politics as posting” problem when signing a bill is meaningless, but hosting a podcast is the epitome of reality

This, more or less, is the full encapsulation of social media: Person A says something they wish was true. Person B points out that it’s not. Person A gets mad at Person B for ruining the vibe and calls them some largely gross epithet in the Chapo dialect.

a nice thing about when the internet was a bunch of little sites and servers was that it was a lot harder for governments to pressure "the chat provider everyone uses" to implement age verification. you wanna pressure 300 separate IRC servers? good luck with that. but one company? easy

To me this is baffling because I enjoy the feeling of having figured it out “on my own” (even if it’s just reading the instructions) and one of my more annoying traits is the things other people tell me to do are often in one ear and out the other

There are only 2 real responses to housing scarcity. You can either build enough homes to accommodate everyone or start drawing up a list of “undesirable demographics” to exclude. I know which side I’m on.

I'd normally throw a "we regret the error" on this correction, but that'd be a lie, as regret is a feeling and, as of about 45 minutes ago, I am incapable of feeling anything

There was a time when I might have disliked the way this show frequently looks directly at the camera and says “in this house, we believe that Black Lives Matter, love is love, no human is illegal women’s rights are human rights, trans women are women…” but now I am all for it.
