my modest disagreement is that i think it is important to signal virtue even if, privately, you are a piece of shit. performing decency is an important part of maintaining the norm that decency is part of a well ordered society.

We need to build some real social stigma around being afraid of cities. You don't have to like them or live there, but a politics built this strongly around watching TV and going "ewww" is embarrassing, and people should be embarrassed by it. It's like "fear of werewolves" being your top issue.

I've had actual arguments with people about "Separating art from the artist." There's no separating this. Like Idk what to tell you, but trans people should be more important to you than like dobby the elf or whatever

Salesforce has been all in on agentic AI, using all of their resources to push a product no one seems to actually want. Admins have known this and now investors are noticing too.

I'm in favour of smaller and smaller areas seceding and becoming their own countries. Not because I like self-determination, but because I want to thwart travel influencers with "87 out of 195" in their bio.

If I die and one of you announces it on LinkedIn of all ******* places I'm coming back to haunt you.
