Work hard, stay humble, be nice to people. He/Him. You’re going to get a random mix of thoughts on geeky things, building software, saving democracy, EVs and dogs. Skeets are my own.

I’m not a political journalist, so was gladly surprised at the community I found here last night. To Americans anxious about the upcoming elections, a key thing we learned in Brazil that might help you: DO NOT engage with the far-right online. Don’t share rage bait. Amplify your people. Ignore them.

Won’t stop with the election. Expect the propaganda machine to be on blast to call election results into doubt. Part of the playbook is to never cede anything.
With so much at stake—Musk himself has billions of dollars in government contracts he wants to protect or land—it would be surprising if the final days of this campaign were free of disinformation skullduggery and campaign-cash chicanery.
"a human centipede of investment in each others' vanity conglomerates"
Who's in charge of this country because it sure isn't us and it doesn't even appear to be the government anymore A bunch of paunchy moon-faced degenerate dead-eyed parasites forming a human centipede of investment in each others' vanity conglomerates, not a scintilla of civic virtue among them

Replying to @volts.wtf
This is why I keep saying: if Dems are serious about accountability, they need to be ready to bull their way through the scolding & tut-tutting that is inevitably going to greet even the mildest attempts. It will come from Rs, from pundits, from journalists, from centrist Ds. It'll be relentless.

CALIFORNIANS: listen up, this is super important 👇
since California ballots are now out: prop 40 is the billionaire tax, and you should vote yes to stick it to them but both props 41 and 42 are designed to retroactively cancel the billionaire tax because they’re afraid they can’t beat it at the ballot box yes on 40, no on 41 and 42
