Because what they’re doing is actively encouraging people to avoid law enforcement activities, operations

That’s what happens when law enforcement are corrupt fuckers. People avoid them and encourage others to do so.

Every empire falls. Behold our example and learn from it. Or follow.

Good. Bad for everyone else, but I love it for them. Fuck everything about them.

Narrator: It won’t.

Sounds like they are afraid black soldiers won’t comply with their future plans.

I’m not sure republicans have a choice. MAGA is in charge now and if anyone goes against them, they are done. And they care about themselves far more than they care about NATO.

Add it to the list…

Clearly some of us can. But as a whole we do seem to crave finding purpose behind random events.

I find myself thinking harder and learning more when I use AI. I’m constantly thinking what I can do to double check it. I constantly look at what it writes and consider whether it did the task I asked it to do or the task I need done.

I’m on track to rewrite 25000 lines of code from one testing framework to another in 3 days, and I started out not knowing either framework and not having really written in typescript in years. And I’m pretty sure I can write the tests from scratch in my primary project that is just getting started.

This one anecdote doesn’t disprove a study, of course, but it seems to me that the findings are not universally true for some reason. Whether it’s a matter of technique or brain chemistry, I don’t know. Ideally, people could be taught to use AI to improve their thinking rather than supplant it.

Red line for what? For what? Do you think there is some moral superiority in pissing away your own country while watching Palestinians burn anyway?

How fucking useless to anyone can a person be?

Wake the fuck up.

No, you wake the fuck up. News flash: if both Dems and Republicans are going to let Israel bomb Palestinians, not bombing Palestinians isn’t on the ballot. You can just eliminate that as a point of consideration.

Does that fucking suck? Yes.

Do some people choose to throw away their vote by staying home or voting 3rd party over that? Yes.

But the country is only going to pick one of those two. So unless you literally give not one single fuck about any other action either party might take, you are throwing away your vote.

That’s not me. I have things I care about. And bombing Palestinians is fucking awful but it’s out of my control in that voting booth. So I vote on issues where my vote makes a difference.

That’s the fucking reality, and you’re the one dreaming.

I looked up PSL. Even if I entertained communism for a single second, they aren’t going to hold any office, much less national office, for several lifetimes. That’s not a realistic answer, though I’m sure you are passionate in your idealism. My approach is to pick the most left-leaning party that can actually win, vote for the most left leaning candidate in their primary that can actually win, and then vote that party in the general.

Which is to say, if a communist ever wins an election, it’ll be by running as a Democrat. Good luck, but I’ll be honest, I hope never to see the day when communism is the sane choice in an election.

You can either get in through primaries and take control from within, or you can build a new grass roots party from local elections across the country and build it up over decades, or you can lose.

Voting third party is just voting for Trump. Dems have to be suborned from the inside.

I’m a white man. I’m fine. I was fine under Biden. I’d be fine under Harris. I don’t need a fucking thing from anyone. You know who does?

My wife. My 4 daughters. My gay son. My trans best find. My granddaughter. My non-citizen coworkers.

Help them, for fuck’s sake. And in so doing, I will get all the help I need.

I honestly thought it was photoshopped or AI…

NYC is the clearest warning yet of what happens to a society when it fails to control migration

NYC elected a mayoral candidate. Like… what warning? Nothing bad has happened.

I’ve been thinking about something like this but I’m not gay or really much of a gamer any more, so… different webrings I guess.

Guaran-fucking-tee you — if this administration lifts a finger in the middle of looting the country, it’s to do some evil shit. Literally worse than comic book villains. I don’t know that I’ll ever again take villains who “kinda have a point” seriously in movies again.

No. Real villains are Snidely Whiplash, cackling and twirling their ridiculous hair as they throw women and children onto train tracks for literally no gain of their own.

The official said it’s her responsibility to ensure “every person on this planet” recognizes the importance of Israel.

Hey DOGE? This person right here. Complete waste of taxpayer money.
