His films are so much more than just "there's dream logic sometimes." There's so much love and empathy and such an enormous part of his entire career was exploring our relationships to ourselves, each other, and yes, to dreams. But the heart is always an absolute love of humanity.

This is true. Toxic communities are designed, whether accidentally or on purpose.

A new report shows that nearly half of U.S. households did not earn enough to cover their necessities in 2024.

the time stamp and lack of (edited) tag is how you know this is authentic "wake up suddenly, desperately tap out a message to myself about something i know i'll want to see again when i wake up, bleary eyes squinting against the brightness of my phone"

ENCYCLOPEDIA - Your mangled brain would like you to know there is a boxer called Contact Mike. YOU - Yeah? Any news on my wife's name? How about my mother? ENCYCLOPEDIA - Nope.

sorry boss, i got sundered so i can’t come into work today. but good news: fourteen diminutive, debased shards of my soul will be there

"let people enjoy things" is over. we must want things to be good

This fucking frownie face is like the fulcrum point of mass tech enshittification for me. This stupid juvenile baby shit in relation to software maintenance drives me up the wall. "Oops! Something went wrong! UwU computer make boom boom! Compy no work good l :((((." Shut the fuck up. Machine.

so like lemme weigh in on this as someone who is more financially comfortable than many in my generational cohort: everything I have gained seems precarious and temporary because I know the people with real money will take it all from me the second they get an opportunity and no one will protect me.

in my game, the more you use a weapon, the more durable it gets. eventually it fuses into your being, and you can never discard it again. even for the bathroom even for sex stuff. then you slowly turn into the weapon. after awhile, youre just a walking halberd. your mother no longer recognizes you

ai cant ever make money. if something is doable by ai its worth 0 because anyone with ai can do it. things that are worth 0 wont make your company money because of basic economics.

I'm concerned people think I'm joking about this.

this is why I find climate dooming so frustrating there is no point - none - at which throwing up your hands and going “well we’re fucked” is the correct response every tenth of a degree matters and can make a big difference and is worth fighting for

Now you can keep track of how many billions the AI companies are losing on AI. (Red is spending, green is revenue.) isaiprofitable.com

A friend of mine who was TA’ing for an AmLit course found a copy of Moby Dick a student had left behind. It had only one marginal annotation, around page 100, that simply said “whale is important.”

What this report indicates, more than anything, is the Democrat Party may simply not have anything resembling coherent leadership or strategy. There's no plan, there's no big picture being studied or analyzed, it's just a bunch of disconnected people and cliques doing random bullshit with a shrug

I don't think it's a good idea to legally privilege someone else's discomfort over another person's rights.

Trans people are not “fighting for unpopular positions that society isn’t ready for.” Trans people are fighting to KEEP the rights we have enjoyed for decades. We have been able to legally change our gender markers since the 70s and before. Same with bathrooms, sports, youth, all for decades.
