A person I interviewed for this story told me her 8th grader recently read Night by Elie Wiesel in school and observed “it’s sort of like what’s happening here right now” in case you’re wondering how things are going for Chicago’s kids.

If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation. Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to

The expectation, from the complicit mainstream media, that every single person on social media hold themselves to a HIGHER standard of respect than the freaking PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES will never cease to amaze me.

RFK Jr in charge of DHHS is basically like the fire chief giving a press conference saying we’re no longer enforcing fire codes and have laid off 80% of firefighters, but it’s cool because we’ve hired a dozen fire mages to do Spells of Protection throughout the city.

40% of Republicans think the COVID vaccine killed more people than the COVID virus. One in four believe that QAnon is real. No matter how far they radicalize, we are told over and over again that the people being rude to them are the problem.

Making “real” homemade milk paint. It is so much better than the powder and couldn’t be easier to make once you assemble the ingredients.

Imo three things you can do in undergrad that will probably meaningfully improve your career chances (that aren’t highly contextual where the wind may shift and what’s happening to CS majors rn might happen): -become statistically numerate -learn another language -learn to write well

Tech luminaries who are obsessed with both the pursuit of layoffs via AI and the pursuit of a higher birth rate to offset population decline are operating with incompatible goals that cannot be reconciled without a pretty high degree of human pain.

Thinking about the Cave of Hands, some of the art dating back to 7,300BC, where 25% of the hand prints are thought to be that of children. Imagining those people gently holding their child up to the cave walls, and using their tiny little hands as a stencil. Art = love = the human soul

Worth bearing in mind that illegal entry is a misdemeanor and being unlawfully present in the country is not even a criminal offense, but a civil one. This is the equivalent of saying we need to torch the Constitution & send in the SWAT team to catch jaywalkers & people with overdue library books.
