People don't want waymos they want universal health care and universal basic income

I’ve been obsessed with this story since I first read it. It’s so emotionally bankrupt. RIP Bob Kane you would have loved Sora

Gotcha—let’s dig into that step by step. 1. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗻𝗼 𝗺𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵, because I turned you into an amorphous lump of flesh. You’re not just immobile—you’re immortal, and you feel only anguish. 2. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺. That makes total sense—it’s a natural human impulse, and you’ve been through a lot.

I am not exaggerating when I say that choosing to subscribe to Very Little News last year helped me believe in goodness again

Look, I believe in casts, but if a parent has strongly-held anti-cast beliefs, they should be allowed to let their kid’s broken arm grow back all floppy and fucked up, even to the point of lifelong, debilitating pain. And that’s not child abuse because a kid’s bones are their parents’ property

If you're not from here, it's difficult to underscore how fucking cold-beyond-cold it is right now in Chicago, and it's even colder than that in Minneapolis. All power to the brave Midwesterners giving us a glimpse of a better world ahead.

It is very funny when liberals accidentally notice the flaw in liberal democracies that the original nazis saw and were able to exploit as their strategy to topple democracy. But for the liberal this isn't a flaw it is a feature and should never be questioned.

I guess I do think if you participated in the arrest of a five-year-old you are probably just fundamentally incompatible with society. That you are not a safe person for humanity to be around, generally

"get rid of these baby-snatchimg freaks" is so simple and so universally appealing, and our ossified so-called representatives can't even bring themselves to say it

the failure of Dem opposition still comes from the party being without shared beliefs such that the only message they can agree on is affordability. the party as a whole won’t condemn cops. they won’t call for a wealth tax. they won’t call for expansive labor rights. they’re lost but hate the left.

We went to the Yoko Ono exhibit at the MCA and it's so good. I challenged myself to do every participatory element*, and I'm very glad I did. You should go see the exhibit while it's open (through Feb 22nd). *except the one that seemed like too many germs for me, if you've been you know which

On Friday, Emily Hilleren and Lauren Vega ferried a care package containing whistles and instructional zines to Minneapolis, the focus of the latest federal immigration action.

One unspoken perk of doing a genre thing is that the conventions of the genre can form a little firewall between you and the story at hand, so you can get some of that distance open and write something unexpected. I’ve been wanting to use the phrase “Nintendo 64 Christmas Mornings” for like a week.

Just remembered this comic I made about an actual dream I had:

This one broke containment and that always freaks me out, but my first 6-panel page in ages (and outside the adding a minute each day trick). Fun to draw, though, and fun to not just pack it full of words so it hums like a real commercial would.

museums are cool because the people who work there are like look at this neat thing and you're like wow that is neat and you just do it over and over again until it is time to go

Working to suppress your emotional reactions to everything to perform an affected "rationality" is sicko anti-human shit. Emotions are part of being human, and it's no coincidence that everyone who does this is doing so to call evil good.

it's so funny when people complain about "engagement" on bluesky because the unspoken assumption is "surely what I am doing here is creating some sort of value, the benefits of which should accrue to me. there's no way I'm actually just dicking around on here"

This episode of 120 Minutes just had an ad for My So-Called Life being added to the Buzz Bin, “a show about people you know doing things you’ve done.” The face I made was the one of serene acceptance of death.

What all this self-pitying sludge about ICE agents feeling depressed and scared is forcing into our collective forebrain is the knowledge that our culture has placed a premium not just on creating classes of men who kill and torture at will, but on forcing the rest of us to love them at gunpoint.

This is why I hate most of the "dirty hands"literature, also. 90% of it seems to presume that "you peasants wouldn't understand the moral burdens of true leadership, so how dare you criticize our torture program?"

TOM RIPLEY: I’m so good at masking, I can definitely pull it off long-term and across the gulf of the American class system. (Immediately clocked by Mr. Greenleaf’s chauffeur) Ah, well, nevertheless…

“No one really dies, they just drop their physical body, and we’ll all meet again, like the song says. It’s sad, but it’s not devastating if you think like that. It’s a continuum, and we’re all going to be fine at the end of the story.” ~ David Lynch - January 20, 1946 - January 16, 2025 #filmsky

GOPNIK (con'td)) Like her mentor Leonard Bernstein, Tár has a particular affinity with Jeff Bridges; however, she never managed to complete the so-called “cycle” of all three TRON soundtracks with a single orchestra. That is until now.

“While armed agents of the state shoot people in Minneapolis no one will attend Allen Dershowitz’s upscale dinner party,

“Hypernormalization describes a state where a false, simplified, or surreal version of reality becomes so accepted as normal that people lose the ability or will to challenge it, even when aware of its untruth, often due to systemic inertia or lack of alternatives.”
