i'm not an anarchist as a matter of principle or identity

i just see a bunch of fucked-up shit in the world, and when i drill down to why it's happening, the mere act of even asking the questions basically leaves "anarchist" as the only viable label for my questioning

Poor @saddestrobots tried to come over and talk - and got ambushed by learning things no one needs to know about the horrors of Canadian fibre and ISP drama.

wise democratic strategist: "we want to focus on policy"

the policy: supporting our client state's genocidal military operations so hard that executive-branch staff keep quitting in protest over it

strip away the "AI" branding and the new google thing is

"we take search results and decontextualize them by putting them in an unsourced blob of text"

turns out that's worse than being sent to a website where you can see the context of the original thing (a joke site, an SEO spam blog, some reddit guy, &c.)

hey folks!

i got a slightly weird request for an artist

my wife has a t-shirt idea she'd really like to see on herself, and also out in the world

(it's about White Gladis the hero orca)

i'm looking for someone who already sells their own artwork on t-shirts to:

  1. take our money for an art commission (we will pay you to make art)

  2. host the finalized thing on your storefront so other people who like it can buy it (other people will also pay you, hopefully, for the cool art)

DM me on here

some of the worst people on earth are the genocide-libs who patiently explain to you that hamas is bad, in a way that's absolutely laden with "and that's why we must kill palestinians en masse for their own good"

still can't get over the "concerned parent got into a fight with protestors" headline, and it turned out the concerned parent ran like three different extremist israeli nationalist groups

none of the shitlibs who are mad at leftie college kids have updated any of their rhetoric or mental models since 2016, so you just get a lot of monologuing about how kids are "entitled" as if america's client state perpetrating genocide is the same thing as your college loans

Literally just had some shitlib say "omg, 1961 -- those were protesters getting beaten, firehosed, murdered
and making their point, over time, to slowly get more rights" like it was a GOOD thing somehow; btw, who was president in 1961?

What do you fucking people not get about "now is NOT the time" to harass me about voting for Biden? Eat shit and leave me alone ffs.

people love to be like "look at the slow march of progress!! so inspiring!" and i just start calculating up the human misery involved in every second of waiting around for society to do the obvious right thing (plus all the extra suffering visited on already-victimized people to punish them for standing up for themselves)

sooo…

• protestors are doing a basic call-and-response type thing
• pro-genocide guy yells "kill the jews" to try to trick them into repeating it
• they do not repeat it, get mad at the guy
• authorities just pretend they did it anyway

i like how sci-fi is basically 50% just "a western but everyone lives an RV that is also a fighter jet"

i don't mean "like" as in "hate," i mean like as in "that's kinda cool but we should be more honest about it"

i should probably tell youtube not to recommend me this thing but i'm kinda happy to just have it sit there in my side bar so i can look at it and think, "sucks to suck, lmao"

it wasn't even terfery per se, it was just… really fucking stupid?

and clearly out-of-left-field / out-of-your-depth type shit, like why would you make yourself the arbiter of this shit you clearly don't understand

the way transphobia works is that you can't "retract" a piece of transphobic propaganda, if you want to undo the damage you caused you gotta physically go apeshit on some tories or republicans who are already using it to hurt real-life living queer people and won't ever, ever stop

the u.s. could have averted this escalation by instituting a no-fly zone two weeks ago when all those WCK people got killed

ok

it's 80% drone shit anyway, shooting them down is as easy as shooting fish in a barrel and trying to make an "incident" out of it just makes you sound really pathetic on the news

So the World Central Kitchen convoy a) cleared its route with the IDF beforehand, b) traveled on an approved route, and c) departed at an approved time, so d) the IDF knew exactly who it was killing when it struck the convoy three (3) times.

It was so obviously deliberate, and so deliberately cruel—not just to murder these people, but to terrorize other aid workers into abandoning the Palestinians to be starved to death. To prove the IDF’s impunity and reach, and to compel the IDF’s defenders into apologizing for yet another unforgivable atrocity.

the sci-fi community is dedicated to publishing about one omelas riff a month, so here are some ideas to turbo-charge your sci-fi author career:

• what if omelas but VR and actually everyone is living the shitty sad life outside the simulation (make this about social media dogpiling for bonus points)

• utopia minus? no, utopia plus! if you replace the omelas child with elon musk then it's, like, the good utopia

• "nobody asks whether the omelas child has bad vibes"

• miscellaneous scolding

"You get more conservative when you get older" only really worked for the generations that got RICHER as they got older.
The real truth was always just "You get more selfish the more money you have".

poor people die younger

when you see social spending cuts imposed by 60- or 80- year-old politicians, that is a generation of the ruling class killing their peers below them on the social ladder
