I want to write music and hang out with people and travel the world and not have to worry about my basic needs being met and to live in a world where nobody purposely tries to hurt anyone else, and I also want that for every other person on earth, and there’s no real reason why we can’t have that

These are β€œlow enrollment” majors but the classes are regularly at capacity. They changed the funding structure a few years ago here, switching the allocation from course enrollments to majors then blamed these departments for a structural, top-down change. This is entirely a political choice.

Alysa Liu telling 60 Minutes β€œI love struggling, it makes me feel alive” is a legit revolutionary statement from a Bay Area native in a time when copious amounts of time and resources are being put toward convincing us to opt out of experiencing struggle, friction and self-actualization

windows pcs are generally for casual users who mostly use it for web browsing and maybe a little gaming. linux is nearly identical except there's no keyboard. macs are for hardcore experts and professionals who take on the toughest tasks, such as drawing three-dimensional rectangles and squares

Tunic, Night in the Woods Publisher Says TikTok Is Creating and Running Racist GenAI Ads for Its Games Without Permission - IGN Publisher Finji says that TikTok has been using generative AI to modify its ads on the platform without permission and pushing those ads to its users without Finji's knowledge, including at least one ...

Dug into this absolutely wild thing happening to Finji. The deeper I read into their increasingly baffling conversations with TikTok "support" the more I felt like I was on something.

WSJ chart titled "The US Economy Depends More Than Ever On Rich People: The highest-earning 10% of Americans account for almost 50% of all consumer spending."

It shows that the spending of the bottom 90% of income has lost almost 75% of their total savings since mid-2021.

The economy we're in now is 100% a result of government/big business backlash to what happened between March 2020 and June 2021.

Workers got a little more freedom and secured marginal wage growth and they responded with an all out war on the cost of living.

This chart shows the impact of that war:

I’m not kidding, guys.

I BARELY HAVE ENOUGH for apartment rent and I’m NOT GETTING ENOUGH WORK SHIFTS to pay the bills.

If this keeps going…. I might end up being homeless without anything in place.

This is no longer a suggestion, this is life or suffering.

Please… Help me.

It was transforming the biggest NFL stage in the world into a sugar cane plantation that did it for me.

Like, the multiple layers of turning an American icon into a plantation and highlighting the history of exploitation of Black and Brown bodies by the NFL and American colonialism simultaneously?
