something under discussed is the fact that white house renovations are currently being spearheaded by someone with famously bad interior design taste

I unfortunately do not think there is a real or lasting solution to the ChatGPT problem other than the Platonic one - promotion of individual moral accountability for one’s self through education and temperance.

Jason Stanley once tried to argue that LaTeX was a form of privilege and blocked me for pointing out that this is stupid

I had a run in with ICE snatching a man out of his car while walking my children to school this morning in NW DC I asked a neighbor to continue walking my kids to school and I turned back to document and confront the ICE agents. I am in contact with @dcmigrantmutualaid.org with the full video.

jared golden saw all your mean posts from yesterday

anyone who accepts any republican offer is a mark and a fool who will get what they deserve they've already opted out of liberal democracy - anything at this point has to be seen as instrumental towards fundamentally illiberal ends it's not clear how anyone can trust them ever again

lol

this is a little on the nose

dime bags are gonna cost a dime again #maga

did we ever get clarity on the bappin' issue - i gather that something was bappin' but never could pin down exactly what

YES Jill Biden was humping a male manipulator. But that doesn’t mean you have to be mean.

your country should be massively overprovisioned for food and electricity or you have done it wrong

This is the most brutal ratio I’ve ever seen

The implications here are very unsavory given Newsom’s dating history

Why can’t they just go through the application process - I’m sure they can do 5 pushups. Then they’d be able to do all the kidnappings and sexual assaults they want

Gov financing of private capital exp is a good thing but it’s a problem that it’s all subject to whatever people think can make headlines at a given moment instead of a coherent plan or set of social goals

“An open mind is undefended” is a lesson that I learned too late, but I did learn it.

They are fundamentally not prepared for someone to scream back ”what are you going to fucking do about it? Shoot me? Do it, pussy, because I’ll fucking die for this shit.”

this is b/c transphobia is a brain-melting cognitohazard. it's v. important to understand this. once you go down this path you cannot shut the fuck up about it, whether you're a republican reactionary or a beltway centrist, to the point where it resembles any other kind of net-induced cybersickness

Mamdani: "My message to ICE agents & to everyone across this city is that everyone will be held to the same standard of the law. If you violate it, you must be held accountable. There is sadly a sense growing that certain people are allowed to violate that law, whether they be POTUS or ICE agents."

i really do think this is the core of it: trump himself is mostly impervious to the consequences of his antisocial behavior, and because of this he can uniquely create space in which people feel permitted and safe to act on their own antisocial impulses which would otherwise ruin them.

a shocking amount of "I was wrong. Here's why that makes me right" commentary today

part of me would prefer scotus drop the hammer and avoid the tariff pain because the long-term project of social democracy depends on maintaining dollar supremacy part of me thinks americans need to be made to smoke an entire pack of trumpism so they learn to never do it again

unfortunately, i will still keep drinking that garbage

a great deal of the third way/yglesias thing is very nakedly the dressing up of a set of personal hobbyhorses and resentments in the clothing of rigor, as evidenced by the fact that they say the exact same shit when they lose as when they win - the actual outcome is entirely incidental

The Illinois legislature had passed the “Illinois Bivens Act,” allowing people to sue ICE agents in state court. Just waiting for Pritzker’s signature. dailynorthwestern.com/2025/11/03/c...

Mamdani winning decisively likely indicates that Schumer and Jeffries’ days as leaders are numbered

Oh, so he’s *good* good at this

That’s real integrity - berets off to him
