They do really say it out loud in the text, though. It's always "We will end abuse by X" or "When Y". Even their fictional rescues are transactional, mere stepping stones to the greater goal

Got around to watching Sinners at the weekend there and really loved it (acting, style, Buddy Guy, almost Paddywhackery free version of The Rocky Road To Dublin) but it laterally reminded me of one of the strangest conversations I've ever had in my life, that I will relate below.

I was thinking about Steam the other day, and the lesson that you can effectively build a monopoly and print money in perpetuity not by actually being particularly good or revolutionary, but by not actively gouging and fucking people over. I'm an idiot and I worked it out. Why can't Adobe?

Granted, comics is a small industry, and my sample population definitely skews Fuck-The-Man in general. But artists, as a whole, aren't high-income. They pinch pennies. And Adobe is over here going "THAT'LL BE $500 A YEAR, ASSHOLE." when CSP regularly goes on sale for $125 for a perpetual license.

Scott Adams kinda started going off the deep end when people started seeing subversion, depth and solidarity in Dilbert strips that he'd seemingly put in by mistake. He was so fucking angry that people thought his stuff was good he spent the following 25-ish years shitting himself in public.

Fucking *this*. Big tech loves blaming the product for what happens to the users. It's just a series of labelled black boxes, guys. Just the algorithm. Because they apparently pay millions for code with no idea what it does

Does the American "generation" concept serve the same function as the British class system, as a way to create and sustain the ability to do a bigotry on people you aren't in any way distinct from?

It's all those "I voted for Trump and he shat directly into the mouth of my life, I didn't think he meant it" articles persuading people there's a middle ground to reach for. They're all fucking liars. They just didn't think it would happen to them and they'd take the chance again. Fuck those people

There was that meme that Zuckerberg looked like the guy in a zombie movie who's been bitten but doesn't tell anyone, and that's fine, but we really need to focus on the way Sam Altman looks like Ben Stiller's stunt double's stunt double permanently wondering if he can trust a fart

One way that the reaction to Rob Reiner's murder mirrors Charlie Kirk's is that the best way to eulogize each of them is to quote their words, and in both cases, doing so pisses off conservatives.

Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

It's not a charitable or particularly nice thing to say, but there's a solid 35-45% of typing men who really need to spend a good year just rotating the words "Hold on, is it possible that maybe I'm just a fucking dick" in their mind until the mist starts to lift for them.

Sam Altman does not, in fact, believe or do this. But he thinks *you* might, because this is how he performs "normal guy". Once you notice that every rich, powerful asshole affects sitcom dad when called upon to relate to the little people, you can't drop noticing it

So, in conclusion: these state actors, using the weapons and training of the state, to act on the intelligence of the state, and murder the perceived enemies of the state; they've actually got nothing to do with the state

It's so confusing and strange and inexplicable that Britain would choose to release the results of their investigations into an Army agent in the IRA and a UVF gang that committed over one hundred murders composed almost entirely of police and army. Why would anyone want those tied together?
