LOL at DC, NH, WA, and NJ not beating the stereotypes at all.

thinking about nicknames for sources, like "deep throat" during the watergate scandal. the context is ICE agents giving us details about what's really happening inside the organization. So far i've come up with "cuck porn"

My dog looks like a medieval drawing of a lion

Ah, I see. Bill “Not Legally the FA US Attorney” Essayli sent out the goon squad to menace a crowd of Jewish activists standing in solidarity with their neighbors on Shabbat because an ICE agent broke from his group, tried to arrest a high schooler, and got wrecked by a bunch of teens earlier today

Was watching a movie that was hinting that one character might be the bad guy. And then he started texting on an iPhone and clearly he wasn’t a bad guy, even though the movie wanted us to believe he might be for much longer.

look I'm not so oppositional to shitty writers that I'm pro-measles now, but I'm at least giving the disease a second chance.

We have received numerous credible reports of torture, killing, and inhumane treatment of detained individuals at the Camp East Montana migrant detention facility, located within Fort Bliss. #txlege

You know how for every sicko who wants to dig a latrine and do inventory management in ARMA there are five hundred who want to make explodo in Call of Duty? Romance in video games basically works the same way but more so because there’s no Love ARMA where you pick up your dumbass kid from detention.

no foreign foe has ever dreamed of being able to sack and pillaging this country the way Trump admin and its congressional and scotus enablers do every day.

ICE has no boundaries — today, wearing their masks in Diamond Heights, they grabbed an elderly nanny who’s here legally. A judge has ordered her release. This is why the work we do to ban these masks & authorize people to sue agents who violate their rights is so important.

Update: the judge in the Stanford case has declared a mistrial, with jurors "hopelessly deadlocked" on both felony counts – a big embarrassment for the Santa Clara DA, who has already said he'll retry the case.

I… I have everything I need to make this

Any particular weird incident is unlikely to be the result of match-fixing but we really have to start asking ourselves this question all the time.

oh that guy unexpectedly fell huh? and he was the clear and away favorite? curious

would be curious to see analysis of betting markets and Olympic results to see if there's any hints of the usual shenanigans

“He’s not really non-binary” who the fuck appointed you judge of what’s going on inside my head

Just chiming in to second this from the enby experience; I have been explicitly accused of being a gender traitor for both a. Being a member of the Bergen county democratic committee and b. Being an economist in manufacturing. I’ve also been accused of straight up “faking it” which is…. Not fun!

True but I also feel like Stancil, Sky, and Bouie are the Three Musketeers of attracting parasocial hate on this site

This even happens to legitimately bad ppl, which makes it really hard to figure out which accusations about them are real. Ppl hurl random shit at the wall whenever someone is the Main Character, drowning out the truth, be it good or ill.

Like once you’ve got that, no matter what you do, no matter if you ignore them or not, no matter whether you’re even present or on vacation or busy at work, there are dozens/hundreds/thousands of people who just seem almost obsessively focused on finding a chunk in your armor to attack you through.

People don’t really understand the nature of the problem. It’s not lots of little random ankle-biter tweets. That’s annoying but whatever. It’s when hating you becomes this communal pursuit that exists separately from yourself. Like there’s an entire group of people working together to target you.

There’s a kind of desperation under this mindset and it really affects me; I don’t want anyone to be suffering like I think these people are. I think they’re lonely and scared and need something in their lives. But it’s just not a good way to be.

And the last thing I’ll say about this: I actually feel kind of bad for people who engage in this behavior, because underneath it there really seems to be a desire for a community and to be doing something with purpose. I see it here and I even see it some in the even larger far-right swarm.

very important correction here

Murder is legal, so long as you do it with a car.

I’d argue this is a bit different for trying to get full use out of AI that does medium-to-longform stuff. I have to be careful and specific to get Google DeepResearch to do what I want it to do, for example.

yeah. maybe there will be a higher level of mastery things settle into eventually but at the consumer level you can be full speed very quickly

In Florida, a husband and wife playing pickleball were charged with felony battery after instigating a brawl involving 20 people that got them banned for life from a country club, the authorities said.

‪Doctors say that vaccines protect children from dangerous diseases. A nepo baby who barbecues dogs and snorts cocaine off toilet seats says that vaccines make children vulnerable to 5G radiation. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

another thing I find helpful if I encounter weirdly resentful people is this www.youtube.com/watch?v=GUuU...

the art of enjoying social media is to be the guy at the front of the picture and not give two fucks about the guy at the back

It's so striking to me all the essays about the death of the humanities and who and what to blame and blah blah blah and the answer is pretty much the undergraduate business major and everything it represents.

It’s not even a real major.

how did they fail to include this in heated rivalry

Sorry, it was Willow the cat’s fault. We tried to stop her.
