My haircut is a dialectic we need to engage adversarially for the truth to be revealed

New S(ubstack)-Bahn post: I take a historical tour into two of my favorite buildings in Seoul, located across the street from e/o. I look into chi energy, the spiritual afterlife, fights over zoning, gentrification, and Seoul's uncertain future. www.substack-bahn.net/p/a-tour-in-...

I am developing a weird valley in my Korean where I have really rudimentary childhood but also dealing with shit like "고영형 인공지능이란 사람의 생명, 신체의 안전 및 기본권에 중대한 영향을 미치거나 위험을 초래할 우려가 있는 인공지능시스템을 말한다" for work while falling back to English when I'm getting my haircut

@karnesmellagio.bsky.social might get a kick out of this lol

Holy Roman Empire

the amount of AI slop I have been receiving from in-house counsel and coworkers has made me want to join the butlerian jihad

We only want the good immigrants who study hard and don't commit crimes, unless they try to take little Brayleigh's (28 ACT, 1350 SAT) God-given slot at an Ivy away by being smarter, in which case Korematsu didn't go far enough

"I saw the mask of humanity fall from capital. It has to take it off to kill everyone- everything you love; all the hope and tenderness in the word. It has to take it off, just for one second. to do the deed."

i need a way to mark emails as "partners are doing shitty bits for the next hour to a forced audience, please mute and auto-laugh react"

one million things to do and one of them is codify whatever bivens was supposed to be, give it real teeth, and get rid of qualified immunity

published in 1994 btw; you morons wouldn't be so tedious if you weren't so confident in being a dumbass

a real who's who of Korean liberalism in this photo walking behind Lee Hae-chan's coffin.

molon labe motherfuckers

part of this is like, conservatives projecting; part of this is conservatives unable to imagine politics without money; and part of this is dudes who are so out of touch with feminized labor that they think children's birthday parties exist as a spontaneous act of parthogenesis

"WHAT ARE WE? A BUNCH OF *WHITE* PEOPLE??"

just called my s/o's plushie by the name of my ex's plushie lord have mercy

Rape regime

if anyone remembers that era of annoying expats making drivel vlogging content about asia, there's a jumpscare in the letters to the editor section lmfao. unsurprising that one of LLM's defenders admitted that he offloaded the effort of reading (and thinking) to "Chat"

that dumb takoyaki being allowed to die of old age was one of life's unfair results

The American government seems mostly non cognizant of this mostly due to how much Lee has smitten trump and the fact that Lee has wisely enabled several deals with the U.S. that on the surface looks like American wins but are instead long term investments by Washington into the Korean economy

i am more american than the perfidious scot-irish of rural ohio, who know nothing of the beauty the country have to offer and have only brains filled with corn

Hell yeah Ken

The only good ICE agent is a dead ICE agent

thinking about going back to church again (don't yell at me), see a methodist korean church near by with a UMC title (lgbt friendly), mildly surprised and look it up, one of their toplinks is "Regarding the Recent Confusion regarding the 2024 UMC Proclamation and our Disavowal" 🙃

these journalists should be homo sacer along with everyone else involved in this invasion

i hope that every american soldier that steps foot in venezuela is summarily executed. less than dogs.

I am begging you, as an American, to boycott the Olympics, boycott the World Cup and sanction us

I wrote about Trump’s ballroom and the right’s quest to remake the symbolic order for @nyreviewofarch.bsky.social nyra.nyc/articles/wre...

I would have more respect for gamers opinions regarding AI if they weren't universally sending the message that all they care about is cheap slop god forbid you don't use an army of underpaid devs to crank out bg_texture_23

see you all in 17 hours

freddie freeing these men

did Schneider not know you don't have to throw pitches to ibb anymore

lmfao game 4 in less than 18 hours lmfao

FUCK

baseball is the best American sport because it captures the feeling of tenacious not-dying (despite wishing for death) rather the cheap, increasingly manufacturable sensation of feeling alive

LET ME SLEEP

현수!!!!

arguing with coworker about the salary cap and after i said something along the lines of labor deserving the value of what it creates, he looked at me and went "you're not even saying that because you're a communist, you're just a fucking dodgers fan"

jesus christ nfts were four years ago what

my kingdom for the plaintiffs bar and regulators that eat him alive. American litigation culture save us

the actually worst version of this is going to law school

oracle is a legal department which, as a side effect, produces ISO 9000-compliant variations on open source projects. if you buy any of them you will eventually receive a lawsuit threat which will bankrupt your company

I legitimately do not understand, like, what is the plan here. Bryan County is not exactly replete with jobs. Do these people expect middle class engineers to risk getting arrested to build the factory for them?

I think a lot about how Biden refused to get the WTO working again

the most infuriating thing about american attitudes is the delusion that this hyundai battery plant was an act of generosity by the states. rural georgia is a shit hole! There is no one in the county who could even tell you what voltage is and you expect them to build a battery plant?

A source has just given me this photograph depicting Elon Musk stepping out onto the balcony of the SpaceX launch center.
