When journalists start using the Republic, or referring to first-principles of #republicanism, instead of “#democracy”, that’s when I’ll take them more seriously.

Important truth very few agree with me on

Via #LinkedIn: who says #advertising has no value?

As someone from the Brahmin caste who finds the entire construct creepy and weird, co-sign: https://bsky.app/profile/brianbeutler.bsky.social/post/3liruqyifpc24

It will also then become less entertaining to watch.

6’4” drop-back pocket passers are more boring than athletes.

The overall viewing experience will drop in quality.

Ratings will suffer.

Maybe by that time, the public will have clued into how flag football can be just as fun, minus the head trauma.

In August, speaking with someone he believed to be a sympathetic donor, one of the #Project2025 architects, Russell Vought, said that a goal of the next Trump administration would be to “get us off of #multiculturalism” in America.

Do the Oathkeepers and Proud Boys get sent after #MikePence now? How does this nonsense work?

Linking to a #FoxNews article is a nice touch👨🍳😘

Frankly, the fact that nobody is paying attention to us here might be the secret superpower of the platform.

Orwell was inspired to write 1984 after a meeting of Soviet, British, French, and American diplomats in the late 1940’s which had an agenda of operating as Big Brothers figuring out how to carve up the planet’s nations for resources after WWII.

Always use air-quotes for “AI”

https://www.superversive.co/blog/air-quotes-for-ai

As “AI” continues to advance, the idea of non-discriminatory and “safe” #AI practices has shifted.

Now, there is a disconcerting trend where both politicians and corporate executives are advocating for AI to reinforce European settler-colonial patriarchal dominance.

How did that become the “safe” path? 🤨

They are projecting because they feel in danger.

#NeverForget #NeverAgain

The #history of #ValentinesDay is intertwined with the Roman festival of #Lupercalia, celebrated from February 13 to 15.

Lupercalia involved rituals to promote fertility and purification.

Saint Valentine was a #Roman priest who defied Emperor Claudius II by performing secret marriages.

He was executed around 270 AD.

Pope Gelasius I later established February 14 as St. Valentine’s Day, possibly to replace Lupercalia with a #Christian celebration.

@elhowieson @blaise I mean, yes, but I think this might be an anti-pattern. The goal of the Creepy Weirdos is to be irritating. They want people to be sick of them: they are creepy. And weird. Complaining about it manifests their vision for them.

@GW “miracle drugs” will be only for the oligarchy, and maybe some plutocrats who bend the knee
