This is an incredible post in that it has people accusing Matt of being a neoliberal shill for proposing long-term poverty relief programs

I want to highlight this a bit - the idea that you can solve people's problems with a moderate and temporary cash influx is a big part of WHY programs like TANF and SNAP are so limited.

Seems not great

There was at least one of this kid in every class I took in high school except for the advanced placement classes, which honestly explains a lot about my worldview

This ICE agent’s entire Instagram feed, “shooter.914,” is guns, watches, energy drinks, and alcohol.

"Is communion literally but not physically the body and blood of Christ" the greatest thread in the history of theology, locked by an ecumenical council after 15 centuries of debate

When this dawned on me it was like the scales falling off my eyes. Gods are superheroes and theologians are just gussed up fandom nerds debating which one is stronger or the exact parsing of a throwaway line

If people are inherently good and only do evil because they’re manipulated into it by a small cadre of bad people then history’s good ending becomes inevitable once you kill off the final boss of the bad people If people are not inherently good then things get much less certain and much scarier

Alright I gotta brag that I thought the results sounded like bullshit years ago so I actually read it and realized it was in fact bullshit

Hey why does this keep happening with the DSA's candidates?

Sam@samd.bsky.social

Francesca Hong doing a stream with notorious antisemite and Republican supporter “Mike From PA” is absolutely disqualifying. not to mention, nominating her in a swing state like Wisconsin will almost certainly hand the election to the MAGA Republican

Pretty sure this didn't happen

I’m not sure Harris was going to win, but when the DNC muzzled Tim Walz and told him to stop calling the GOP “weird,” it was over. Weird is the nicest thing you could call these genitalia-obsessed monsters, and the positive response to Paulina’s tweet should tell the Dems to fight fire with fire.

I just had to ask Claude what it thought.

I think it's entirely organic that like a dozen people responded to a comment that was already like 6 comments into a thread, many of them multiple times and not at all a sign of personality disorders and a cultish approach to community. I'm so owned right now.
