whether something is a violation of IHL or not is in most cases irrelevant to how you and I ought to judge them morally. many things that are not violations of IHL are fucking awful and shouldn't be done! war! it sucks!

The 2026 Mets are undefeated in games in which they were trailing entering the ninth inning or later

Viticulture Bordeaux is excellent! I love base Viticulture and Tuscany, but this polishes a lot of the rougher edges and eliminates a ton of unfun strategies and makes the game play more fluidly! Excellent work by @stonemaiergames.com #boardgames

We actually do need the commodification of housing in that we should produce so much it is a low part of a household’s total spending as it is a commodity.

obsessing over politics in art, and the politics of artists, is an easy way to lose your mind

So-called “inclusionary zoning” is bad policy that worsens the problems it is supposed to address. If cities want new apartment buildings to include units set aside for poor people, they should pay for the necessary subsidies.

it’s time for another season of new york mets baseball! (threatening)

Unpopular opinion alert: Chuck Schumer deserves credit for keeping his caucus in line until Republicans folded.

absolutely correct

Mets fans love the game, all its ups and downs, but I have yet to meet a Yankees fan that appreciates that even in the darkest moments, baseball is still good Let's go Mets baby 162-0

going to start incessantly posting the reason biden won in 2020 is he ran the most pro trans campaign of all time

THE UNDEFEATED METS ARE ON A 162-0 PACE

Let's go Mets

Opening day? Happy? Yeah, sure thing pal.

I think people navel gaze too much about their social media enemies. None of us are representative and as much as I like seeing the stupidest people online laid low, they do not matter

so much of anti-housing politics is pure aestheticism. it fits a certain archetype of activism to be positioned against “developers.” the facts on the ground do not matter.

"Senate Democrats on Saturday blocked a Republican-backed amendment that would have barred transgender girls and women from participating in female school sports, defeating an effort to attach the measure to the GOP’s SAVE America Act..."

Remember this when certain state funerals are planned in the future and people get their knickers tied in a bunch because people aren’t sufficiently grieving, and call for them to lose jobs and such.

Every quote and line in this article is, more or less, about what *Republicans* think and want. The only reference to what Democrats think is boilerplate "there's a ways to go". Yet this post says "Senate Democrats may agree" without the article indicating there's any movement in that direction!

A thing that's deranging is so many people, even anti Trump people, just accepting the idea that Trump can control when the war ends (and by extension, the strait reopens). "The enemy gets a vote" just never occurs to people when Trump enters the picture and it's maddening.

Things are getting extremely anti-semitic on here and it will break the site

This Track AIPAC stuff is insane, and if you shared their stuff in earnest, you need to take a long look in the mirror.

The HiPAA claim here is actually true but this is a big reason why it's very bad to offer such a product

A griftfluencer dating the Onion guy whose only real qualifications seem to be that she posts good*, who takes marching orders from Ryan Grim, has tried to make her campaign everyone's problem. I live across the country! I don't care! Thank god its over today. * debatable

There are many bad things about Trump's foreign policy adventurism but one thing I haven't seen people talk about is how bad a mess it's gonna be to clean up for the next President

Jürgen Habermas, the leading figure of the second generation of the Frankfurt School, has died at the age of 96. www.faz.net/aktuell/feui...

I’m outraged and heartsick that someone attacked a synagogue in Michigan, and I’m outraged and heartsick that the IDF dropped charges against Israeli soldiers who we know sexually assaulted Palestinian detainees, and I’m outraged and heartsick that some will suggest one of these mitigates the other.

Experimenting with AI for coding at work and a thing I can say is: if I need to do something that's easy but tedious (like mirroring some way we handle a different thing somewhere else) I can just tell it to do that while I shitpost

He's unearthed an even bigger scandal: food places that eyeball you and micromanage your spice tolerance (wrongly). When will *that* story get the investigation it deserves?

most German thing I've ever heard

sometimes it's nice to have a main character with nutty views like "industrial agriculture is bad, mostly because it doesn't give us any leisure time", posted on the website where us email job havers spend our downtime at work

universities historically were exclusive institutions dedicated to producing priests and lawyers, and land grant colleges were designed to disseminate useful knowledge to the country. the GI bill sent millions to college to get credentials needed for a modern economy. this is ahistorical mythmaking.

I did a lot of work in philosophy of mind, cogsci, and consciousness studies in a previous life, and I think you can outright disregard anyone that says that some AI model is conscious. It is not worth your time.

Want to know what's cool? The smoke detector on the 10? 12? foot ceiling having a feature where it decides to beep at 4:30am telling you to push the test button

This was a good line. No, V, we didn't.

The category "war crime" is very technical and it does not contain every bad, immoral, evil, or stupid thing that happens in war. Some war crimes are entirely mundane and some legal actions are horrific beyond belief.
