I think too much, but sometimes it comes in handy. "Any pronouns" in my case means "surprise me". I don't click Substack links. Profile picture adapted from art by Don Cabanza.

This is not true at all? What?

In fact, there are an infinite number of times in history when people threatening to not vote for someone over something has caused them to support something they otherwise would not.

It's been a few days without any donations and we still need $450. Please help out if you can. Thank you.

Isn't it a generally accepted truism that compromised hardware is pretty much game over for security?

Unclear whether this is planned or emergent, but he always to be building a government with no formal budget funded entirely by kickbacks.

Au contraire! What is a build system, ultimately, but a series of social relations between people masquerading as a series of social relations between files?

Maybe the ideal is a bit like being an author: have your own vision but be open to feedback.

My gripe is definitely in the "grass is greener" genre. Being a complete windsock can wind up *reducing* representation (or at least, my feeling of being represented) by pivoting away from what your past voters asked for when they voted you in.

Yes, I know, with FPTP voting this is an inevitable result.

"Here are the positions we need to take to make sure our party wins" is so ass-backwards. Your party should exist to further your positions, not the other way around.

Everyone please diligently check your candy this year. I cracked open a snickers bar and not only did I find a copper ingot, but it was of poor quality.

Worse still, when my man Nanni confronted my neighbor about it, he was treated with disdain.

Traffic to Pornhub has fallen by more than 75% in the UK since the introduction of the Online Safety Act, as legal adults have shifted to the thousands non-compliant sites, supercharging the growth of platforms that don't moderate for pirated content, revenge porn and CSAM

An unmitigated disaster.

So I guess all those mockups and renderings that showed the new ballroom next to a basically intact White House were lies? What is he *actually* building?

Hell, it ventures pretty deep into socialist territory in certain places. The Federation is a moneyless society!

This is the kind of surreal shit I absolutely love when it's intentional. But with AI at the helm, it's just... arbitrary and disjointed.

The one I haven't seen anyone address yet (and it's a bit close to home for me) is the abuser narrative: we see him in a dingy apartment, she tries to call the police, and a social worker comes to teach them "breathing exercises". Let's break down the myths.

Yeah this is the one that jumped out at me most, too. Cuomo really showed how badly he fails to understand this issue.
