Badenoch is like a facebook algorithm that has been designed purely to exploit whatever conflict it encounters in pursuit of more heated emotions, without any actual interest in the conflict as such

At a meeting about the CRT report and don't have a boat or anything, but it really feels like the CRT doesn't need to "communicate better" it needs to become participatory and democratically accountable to license payers?

has anyone ever encountered any really nuts or interesting beliefs about what happens when you die. like apart from the well-known ones

Captain's log, Space Date 25 February, 2026,

so i just learned that in Poland, they have this thing called a lektor, which is where they don't dub or subtitle foreign movies or TV. instead, they just have a guy read all the characters in a monotone voice???

what's the charge, pondering a room? a succulent Chinese room?

people who know more than i do about this stuff are making a case that the substance of what this guy is saying is goofy.

i will fully admit to reskeeting entirely based on the aesthetic of a reporter trying to do a fluff piece pulling the mic away whenever the subject veers into politics

Fwiw there can basically be nothing wrong with saying anything bad about PE ... but in UK context I have heard argument that financialisation of housing is red herring, not really main driver of housing crisis, better to focus directly on wages & rents - see Nick Bano, Alva Gotby, Susanne Soederberg

In Arms IN ARMS A large crow ascends from the valley and alights on Maeve’s table. For a few moments, Maeve and the crow energetically respect each other’s boundaries. Then, with a civil croak, and a wing rio...

The best bit of IN ARMS (2019?) was the proposal that "human in the loop" has nothing whatsoever to do with good outcomes or good worker experience, and everything to do with liability and scapegoating - docs.google.com/document/d/1...

... but I feel like there are more interesting approaches here. A little less comfortable, and more intriguing, might be Starfleet as a utopia of erotic disciplinarity. Even less comfortable and more intriguing, a utopia of meritocracy. Does Trek seek to rehabilitate merit within political thought?

The easy and unsatisfying way of explaining this away is as an inconsistent mishmash, or via the idea that Starfleet is simply an anomaly within Federation society, whose members have freely traded away their autonomy, in return for prestige and the chance of exotic and exhilarating experience ...

The capacity to put workers through bespoke simulations allows for detailed and intimate monitoring of performance. Ultimately the society is a carceral one, and workers who resist can be put on report, confined to quarters, thrown in the brig, or beamed down to Federation rehabilitation centres.

Their working lives consistently appear spartan and regimented, with few opportunities for vocational exploration, experiment, or self-expression. Given the comparative omniscience of the ship’s computer, life aboard a starship is life within a surveillant assemblage, data scraped at every turn.

The point is that Starfleet norms and institutions accommodate and enable leaders like Jellico. Federation citizens are supposedly equally empowered individuals, who enjoy material abundance, exercise their own definitions of freedom and pursue their own forms of virtue. But at work?

Admittedly, Jellico is presented as an especially despotic and controlling leader. But Jellico’s personality, or his management style – versus the more sporadic despotic outbursts of Captains Picard, Sisko, Janeway et al. – is not really the point here.

There are no bad fruits and I am especially grateful for all the work mulberries have been doing in themselves 🤮
