i take a moderate, sensible position on this issue: ICE should be disbanded and everyone hired there since 1/20/25 should be added to a registry and subject to a lifetime ban from public sector employment.

ICE is arresting children as young as 5 in their driveway after they get home from school and shipping them to detention centers in Texas. This is objectively depraved and it’s insane Dem leadership refuses to support reducing ICE’s budget (which was TRIPLED this year) at all

This is what happens when business majors are allowed to run everything. I worked at MULTIPLE tech companies where business majors actively fought to make our products worse, over the protests of every engineer, designer, and scientist in the company

Dear white people:

I remember being told that this wasn’t real and I should be amazed at how well these algorithms could predict my purchasing preferences. Turns out they were doing exactly what everyone thought.

They couldn’t even stick by the meager demands they had. My God…

My take on the Newsom discourse is incredibly simple: Last year a socialist won a primary and centrists all refused to endorse him and ran the second place finisher against him in the general and therefore centrists have no right to do voter shaming in any context ever again.

The Housing and Urban Development estimate to end homelessness is $20 billion.

A human consumes about 2,000 calories per day. Over 20 years, that’s roughly 17,000 kWh of total food energy. Training GPT-4 consumed an estimated 50 GWh of electricity. That’s 3,000 humans worth of “training energy” for a single model run. And GPT-4 is already dead. OpenAI

“The entire basis of this war is good and morally justified but the process is suboptimal” thank you Gavin for running the football 95 yards then turning around and insisting you strongly oppose touchdowns

remember when a bunch of teenagers working for Elon cut the funding to Sesame Street a year ago because America was on the verge of financial collapse or something?

Rubio: “Iran is run by religious fanatics.” The White House right now:

The state of democracy in the US right now.

This practice needs to be outlawed, across all purchases, networks, and mechanisms, immediately. It’s not dynamic pricing. It’s price discrimination.

"The Case Against Universal Free Lunch"

Remember when their narrative was Travon Martin was a thug (and deserved to die) because he was wearing a hoodie?

No matter what Cuba does, it's never "enough" because what they want is political. It's not about human rights, it's about dominion. They want to control everything about Cuba. It's greed. It's racism. It's outright fascism.

This is the step that happens before really really bad things happen in most dystopian sci-fi's

it’s crazy that 95% of people just want a nice normal life on our beautiful, already abundant planet where they can have their basic needs met and cute experiences with their loved ones and then we have these 5% of evil, narcissistic goons at the top fucking it up for all of us

They think you’re this stupid
