Greg Abbott has made clear that if you have a gun and you see him or his security guards with a gun in any position, you're entitled to a pardon if you shoot them down. I think this is barbaric but this is literally what Abbot said is now Texas law.

Diddy 1997: 'See, we date 'em like we hate 'em; see 'em like we don't need 'em; Treat 'em like we beat 'em, and never give up freedom'
You mean to say a rapper who talks about beating women, beats women? Unbelievable.

Quite an insightful piece on AC Transit Realign, on-time performance metrics, and how fair labor goes hand-in-hand with good bus service:

I watched this for the first time recently and I think the movie is great but I don't know where the misogynist nerd setup gets fulfilled. Zuckerberg doesn't suffer any consequences for FaceMash, he gets sucked off by college girls later and we know he gets married + is rich.

Incredibly good essay that helps explain why our so-called reckoning with the urban renewal era has somehow translated into endless public meetings that quash good projects, while barely slowing down urban-renewal-style highway projects at all.

Yes, these people should be sanctioned. Anyone affiliated with these settlers should be sanctioned, and that includes Netanyahu, his administration and his lackeys.

Woah, policies put in place to suppress and punish speech that progressives find offensive ended up being used to suppress and punish those progressives themselves?

Private property didn't really seem to be a thing. Star Trek started out as communist by saying capital, or credits / currency, no longer existed. But later on they reversed that so its kind of inconsistent. Capital definitely did not play a leading role in the Federation

The Federation's economy was clearly market socialism, with an emphasis on socialism, although inconsistent throughout the series. Not all planets had the same economy. But everyone's needs were met and the market was mostly trade of leisure goods.
