At least there will be art after it all 😮💨
(I keep thinking how Devo went to Kent State and saw their classmates murdered by national guardsmen.)

Also, pregnant people should think twice. The religious fervor to eliminate abortion as an option here means pregnancy complications often become much more complicated that they should be allowed to and people die from it.

Their trademark stainless image is impossible to keep free from stains so people are putting wraps on them because you can wash vinyl. But yeah, this pattern sucks 🫠

I'm gonna guess it's more likely to cover up water damage

I love the part about "don't bring more swastikas into this world" and "don't cosplay as a Nazi"
@patrickcmiller
WOW.
DOGE wants access to every government record but they won't even identify 80% of their staff asking DoE for this information

That was interesting, thank you. This feels kind of related:
I played Persona 5 a little after Trump took office the first time. There's a part of the game where you go through the social unconscious mind and people are sitting in cages reassuring themselves that they didn't do anything to cause the problems people are facing,, and,,
I keep thinking about fascism at a personal level. That these people are trapped in their own minds trying to hide from their own awareness in an attempt to feel at peace. It doesn't work, of course. They're still prisoners in their own mind, afraid to see themselves as powerful enough to do anything about it.

Yup. Trump is offering federal employees a "buyout" to accept early resignation, and also threatening a purge of anyone that isn't sufficiently loyal to him personally.
He wants to replace everybody with lackeys and yesmen.
#Deepseek. I've seen a lot about it but everything I've seen that was informative is also very pro AI. I'm not so i won't share links to them.
Basically:
China was denied the newest chips to make AI so everyone in the US assumed they would never get there.
But China used less capable chips and optimized the hell out of them to make something work that's actually way more efficient.
So tech stocks are worried there could be a bubble now, and generalized AI hype is seeing a surge today.
Mostly i think this is about American hubris.

I think somehow he's replaced Ivanka and i hate to think about what this means exactly

"The other cheek" is my butt.
"Turning it" is me turning around to leave

Why should we care about bluesky? I came here to get away from billionaires.

Weird how they can't hear that answer specifically
The year is 2025 and no one knows what's true anymore. AI has supplanted the entirety of human knowledge stores with reasonable sounding but often very wrong language slop. Information sources dated before the AI epoch have been overwritten by machines diligently making web pages relevant to the search engine gods. Public projects to save our history have been shut down for the same copyright infringements AI training sets indulge in.
People are finally asking each other questions again
Well this happened: 😅

Countable: more or fewer
More pedestrians, fewer cars
Uncountable: more or less
More happiness, less strife
"You can always have more, but don't count on less."
- me. I wrote this
People ask if the word data is singular or plural but I've never had "fewer data", which tells me it's uncountable
I can't help but feel a disconnect when people say the American healthcare system is the worst because it gives the worst results for the most cost.
That's exactly what the business wants to do! They are succeeding wildly at their mission to make profit
The problem is: we let them make a profit on human suffering. So of course they created more human suffering!
