I shall not Discourse. Discourse is the mind-killer. Discourse is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face the Discourse. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the Discourse has gone there will

"...dogshit?" Ah yes, watching the followers defensively gather about their Dear Great Leader. The merest hint of dissent is capital treason and simply *must* be exterminated, lest it spread. The United States spent literally half a century stamping out totalitarianism, but some want to go back.

The far right is international and they all organize together and raise money for each other. I'd argue it's critical to pay attention to elections in other countries.

I think people intuitively understand that democratic candidates tossing trans kids to the wolves is not only morally repugnant but also politically ineffective, otherwise they wouldn't freak out every time someone said they weren't voting for a democrat who did this

We tried "everyone is entitled to an opinion" for three straight decades and all we have to show for it is four thousand cases of measles and a death cult running the government. It's time for people who don't know what they're talking about to shut the fuck up.

too many people think code is a binary and it either works or it doesn't, when really it's a spectrum from "does it blow up (almost) every time" to "this will never have an issue" code that looks like it works can only *mostly* work, and that's often the worst code of all this is a post about AI

There’s a thread going around that I’m not gonna link or name anyone involved in, because I think they all mean well, but, uhh… “it’s wrong that society tells men as a group that they’re gross and unattractive because sometimes trans men catch strays” does not in fact feel particularly supportive.
