What “big #government” can get you.
Look at what these amazing people accomplished on our behalf. Fuck anyone who wants to replace these people with political loyalists.

In possibly the most Chicagoan story of the #DNC2024, The Wieners Circle is sponsoring vasectomies and mifepristone at the #PlannedParenthood mobile clinic this week.
It’s so dang beautiful.

@Lyle @StillIRise1963 Can we trick them into rushing into their bunkers and then barricade the doors and cut the comms?
I’m sure they’ll live out the rest of their lives in luxury, I just want us to be able to move the rest of society forward.
@thomasfuchs Someone who invested what little they had left after the crypto crash into Anthropic.
@thomasfuchs @ericj Read and discussed with my partner.
Had a long discussion about what “delusions of grandeur” might look like, given the scale and scope of statements I ordinarily make :D
@thomasfuchs @ericj Good to know, as it’s step-up day for me on Lexapro.
@JessTheUnstill We specifically host these things as “Underrepresented Genders” rather than “teh wimmins” to make sure we catch our genderqueer colleagues, too.
Not contesting any of that.
I would just like to say as an aside, though, as a statistician those polls *are* crap and the most commonly referenced meta-poll aggregation analyst works for literal vampire Peter Thiel.
The math don’t lie, but the data selection do.
@thomasfuchs The overwhelming sentiment from non-psychotic people has been “yeah, that tracks. Surprised it took this long.”
#France is treading the path that #Spain paved last year.
When the far right rattles its saber, call its bluff. They are loud but not so numerous as they make themselves out to be.
Certainly, one would prefer there be ZERO of LePew’s Rascist collaborator shitbags in the National Assembly, but perfection is the enemy of good. They can be dissected over time.
@thomasfuchs This may explains a lot about my last trip to Muenster and Aachen, where whenever someone spoke to me in Deutsch, my brain shorted and responded in American Spanish.
“Möchten Sie Wasser, Madam?”
“Sí, agua sin gas, por favor. Oh godammit. Entschuldigen. Sprechen Sie English?”
@thomasfuchs AFAICT Austrian accents are heavily provincial, even more so than German accents. Apparently my great-grandmother’s accent was deeply Burgenlander.
I’m sad she didn’t teach us any Deutsch, but given what she and her kids must have gone through in the 30s/40s in the US I understand the desire for assimilation.
@mekkaokereke @CptSuperlative Fellow white person, Mekka has it totally right.
Even if you can’t influence your direct family, being a white cisdude who talks to other white cisdudes about it can have a powerful, hyper local impact.
The bad guys depend on you feeling isolated and alone and passively curling up into your cave.
Let’s all help each other and get our folks into voting booths.
Edit: autocorrect hates names, apologies
@thomasfuchs Yessssss… soon you will be CLEAN.
@thomasfuchs @sidereal Looks like they still want you to contact them to design the thing you want with them (yeah, this totally fits the old #KivaSystems model, they have not deviated from our common heritage) but ground got broken in Arlington, MA for their first delivery. Should be a good one to watch.

@thomasfuchs @sidereal Though my former #robotics colleagues’ startup Reframe Systems gets closer to the original intent.
@thomasfuchs @foone It’s kinda a shame that tablets destroyed the subnotebook market. They’re so cute and weird and I like them.
@thomasfuchs @glennf doooo iiiiiiiiiit
@thomasfuchs YESSSSSS
40LB OF PURE POWER
@thomasfuchs Some industrial environments are more controlled than others… :D
