When looking at the history of the death penalty. It has been mainly used as a political tool, and not as anything to actually off those that are actually harmful to society. And with the US’s already high false incarceration rate, the death penalty seems like a messed up system to make space.

I, for one, welcome the “abundance” fight. It shows the left can fight Trumpism while wrestling with how we can be better than we’ve been. I have no interest in “actually the government has been doing great” liberalism.

Since the second Trump administration has began, the final episode of ‘The Boys’ season 4 has been given new context. No longer is Homelander a stand in for the general conservative populace. But the stand in for the Oligarchs fucking over America, even their supporters.

one thing i keep thinking about is how there is simply no way to design a constitutional system that can resist authoritarian incursion if participants in that system do not actually care that much

This is a bigger issue than people realize. Not just jobs lost. But their families losing benefits. Landlords losing tenants. Cities and towns losing revenue. This is how recessions start Ready Fire Aim is no way to govern.

More accurate, fewer words; "There are plenty of contractors going under". A friend furloughed 75% of staff (furlough w/paying for health insurance for three months), 50% exec pay cut, 25% rest of staff to keep as many people w/salary. PS: Wasn't 18F a government office, not a contractor.

It is growing very evident that I likely will leave the US post undergraduate completion and go and live in some country in Europe. I’m going to be honest, as an aspiring astrophysics researcher, this country ain’t it right now.

340 million US citizens, 62% of which are working class. Yet, NOT A SINGLE PERSON has taken it upon themselves to organize a class revolution at all. Whether or not it’s successful matters not, it’s more to send a message.

The day Noam Chomsky dies is going to be fucking tragic for the world. Somehow 9000x more well put together and mentally competent than a grand majority of the boomers in the United States. And he’s like 96 and STILL speaking out on shit!

Intelligence officials are starting to leak to me now too. Here’s a memo Defense Intelligence Agency personnel received instructing them to suspend observances including: - Holocaust Remembrance Day - MLK Day - Juneteenth

As much as I hate to say this, I’ve lost a good amount of respect for NASA, as they have actively worked into corporatizing space travel/exploration. SpaceX as a corporate entity has no right to exist as they could just have transferred employees to NASA positions (especially those in engineering).

The incompetence of the current administration is astounding. They have an agenda, but their agenda is ultimately flawed in execution. Cruel and incompetent is a combo that usually doesn’t combine well. This may possibly end in a constitutional crisis, as I am certain they have no idea how it works.

Bug racism is a real thing, and thus I have made sure my bugs are essentially an inter species community.

My bugs I’ve been raising have been subtlety becoming more intelligent, and soon they will escape the enclosure and usurp the bugs from the rock outside.
