Oh dear, they've colonized the couch!

"Specialists" are gonna focus on how we fought the algorithm, but a huge part of it was actually about people being on the streets educating others and changing their opinions. News media refused to tell people about the crimes and intentions of the bolsonaro family, so we did that ourselves.

Democrats running right is far more dangerous than republicans running right, and I’m sick of pretending otherwise

I don’t think this is exactly what’s going on, or all that’s going on. It’s not that Republicans are constructing an elaborate psychological defense against evidence that Trump is a rapist. It’s that they like that he’s a rapist, and they like rape: it enacts the power of the strong over the weak.

A record that changed my brain forever. Good read.

bots filing lawsuits would result in a tsunami of absolutely frivolous bullshit that would destroy thousands of small businesses and ruin millions of lives. Fuck "A.i."

Interesting approach by Mike Rogers to make his loyalty to Elon Musk & the oligarchy an explicit part of his campaign earlier this year. “When you stand with my Senate campaign today, you are directly shielding Elon Musk,” Rogers wrote. www.metrotimes.com/news/mike-ro...

Videogames is the creative field where creatives are least recognised, most of the time their names are hidden away on the finished product. This is obviously deliberate on the industry's part but the audience enables it when they fail to care about the people who make this stuff.

The powerful executives who cozied up to Trump didn't oops accidentally forget about pendulum swings. They either: 1) Like the fascism 2) Calculated it was here to stay, so going along was savvy 3) Saw no real downside, no consequences when the pendulum swung Crucial to show them 3 was a mistake

Time Waits (colorful joint here) is from me, Chip Zdarsky, Marcus To, Marvin Sianipar, Matt Wilson, and Ariana Maher. It's about a man out of time, his no-nonsense wife, a nice kid they'd like to adopt, their weird but dedicated friend, and assassins from a hellscape future who want to kill them. A+

This post in particular is really telling. It's saying - don't expect Democrats to simply right the wrongs. What Republicans take away in 4 years you must expect to spend 20 years to restore, fighting Democrats the whole way.
