people still think that showing neo-fascists the respect we wish they would show us will somehow teach them to do better or compel them to stop hurting us

this is flawed logic & morally repugnant, let it go

Putting this on the hash tag AI feed 🤗

got this print in the mail all the way from England, thx https://www.sonnyross.com #AI

me, no AC, leaving all my windows open

you, my next door neighbor, running your window AC unit (with its constant buzz and piercing high pitched whine that is possibly used elsewhere as an instrument of torture) even when its not hot

in the AC discourse i'm very pro AC, but i'm also pro using a box fan inside your house for general circulation when its not actually hot and you're not actually home and your AC unit's buzz causes your neighbors to lose their minds

what’s horrifying is we had time to put steps in place to prevent this acute power play, and afaik not a whole lot was done. you just can’t escape the conclusion that the democrats have handed this regime most of the building blocks it’s using to end nominal democracy https://mas.to/@gleick/115090426995215096

what is the biggest 180 of your life, the thing you used to love but now hate, or used to hate but now crave etc

took a taxi instead of an Uber at the airport today. didn’t have to use my phone, no downloading, no having to meet a random car. just walked up to the taxi station and took the next taxi as god intended

what if we don’t need the apps you guys

"We teeter on the brink of collapse into an authoritarian state. That is why, today, The Onion calls upon our lawmakers to sit back and do absolutely nothing"

"In timing that’s almost too absurd to be real, The Onion has a full page ad in Sunday’s New York Times print edition featuring part of an editorial titled, “Congress, Now More Than Ever, Our Nation Needs Your Cowardice.” As the world wakes up to the news of the US bombing Iran, NYT subscribers perusing the news section will find this ad from the renowned satirical publication, meant to highlight the utter fecklessness of this country’s lawmakers"

i remember in the Bush II years how the omnipresent background of war, lies, and surveillance changed the color of our ordinary living, not for everyone, but for those who noticed and cared about what was happening. 2025 is like 2003 times 1000. reality is a heavy weight to carry for those of us who are not pretending it's all fine. so often i don't feel like i'm carrying the weight of crises, but of their popular denial

one of you shared this and I downloaded and review it just to feel seen

@dalias @seachanger maybe just let people enjoy memes

@Dangerous_beans @seachanger @dalias there is just something about people immediately replying with a scold that feels so shitty, like give it 5 minutes lol

Or like, remake the meme in the way you want it and post that

But just the drive by scolding is so tedious

I’m fine if I have to get a special permit for it

a real obstable is how corporate media amplifies the wrong big ideas rn. For example this abundance bs. Because with the right set of big ideas, we actually could reorganize society in like a year, just by workers pivoting into a different formation

aggregate a bunch of Indy newsletters and newsrooms and make a new NYT.

organize Indivisible and WFP into national competition/replacement of the Democratic Party

these institutions will only stop harming us when we replace them. posting complaints has not yet even touched the harm they do
