I should probably get off my ass and read the will to change in solidarity

The TikTok girlies (gender neutral) are hatching a plan to all buy copies of communion by hooks on Vance's release date. I will be participating.

what exactly DOES happen to materials from a major studio that’s closed? where do physical hard drives, documents, etc go? who maintains all this pointless secrecy? if you know or have stories, get in touch: nathan@aftermath.site, nathangrayson.666 (signal), aftermathdotsite@proton.me (proton mail)

I love trying to read an article longer than 250 words on a browser on my phone the constant reloading adds a lovely frisson of danger to the reading experience also it loses my place every time it reloads which is both interactive and disorienting best of all is when the ad tech kills the page dead

Also, I don't think how purposefully manipulative/confusing those other 9 questions were can really be conveyed unless you were handed those 10 ballots and sent to the ballot box. I was worried the whole time I would accidentally check the "more racism please" box and I knew to vote no down the line

Look I know it's kind of become a bit cliche at this point....but these are genuinely heinously bad numbers for an incumbent's party two weeks from Election Day.

They realized they needed to make the main question straightforward and it was going to lose, so the backstop is "well 'remain in Canada' won, but people have a lot of concerns about borders and the only way to strengthen our borders is to separate"

Wait, how did the Alberta referendum become ten questions?

Trump: "You have Mohammed, Mohammed, Mohammed, Mohammed, Mohammed. Everybody is basically. If you're in doubt about somebody's name from the Middle East, just say 'Mohammed.' You have about a 65% chance."

This is extremely shady. Coal and probable data centers. Choke on that Mat-Su.

A company planning a new coal project in Mat-Su has leased more than 800 acres of University of Alaska land near Port MacKenzie to build a large-scale industrial park and energy facilities. via @matsusentinel.bsky.social

interesting that conservatives were militantly “we must reward hustle” when the target was affirmative action at elite universities and now, when faced with the success of south asians and other groups, it is “i think we are too meritocratic”

It's absolutely bonkers to me that this image led directly to this tweet.

A modest proposal: a state tax of $10,000 per thousand ad impressions (CPM) as billed by the platform for national level campaigns

I am going to find whatever consultants are making these Alaska senate race ads and peel their skin in tiny little strips with fucking vice grips. Both parties. No mercy.

If Eric Hafner was running for senate I would vote the bullet for him. These people need to be begging Jesus himself for mercy and be told “no”.

I swear to God I am going to find every judge that killed campaign finance and go to their house and slowly drill out their skulls with a rusty Dewalt. They need to burn in Hell for eternity over this

Your favorite Anthropic so-called "whistleblower" said that the rationalists have "specialized minds" that allow them to see that the end is about to be brought on to us by a magical machine god. Parroting the cult leader (of the rationalists, the R in TESCREAL) who says the same about himself.

We did end up going to brunch, with me having had my crashout and having come back composed 😆 we weren’t vibing but no hard feelings. Ships passing in the night. I think this is all growth?

thinking about how on my first day in LA I went to a coffee shop and saw a girl reading a book on acting. I thought “wow LA is pretty charming” and then she had a panic attack so bad they had to call her an ambulance

This is the dodgiest and most-desperate thing I’ve seen in the bubble so far. Amazon selling their chips to a group of investors and leasing them back - an off balance sheet arrangement done in plain sight. Really scraping the bottom of the barrel here. And they’ll probably buy more!
