🇺🇾 Darwin’s Farewell and the Rise of the Relentless Reds

Alternatively it wasn’t a power move, they had been tracking Ekitike for a long time (look at stat tables for why) and now was the time to buy him…

Nina Turner: Kamala Harris is correct that the system is broken, but how they responded when they had all of the levers of power - they didn't do anything that was particularly bold. It's not enough to blame what is happening on the GOP.

Nina Turner: Moving forward, what will the Democratic Party do differently to animate the base, to lift up and change material conditions of people in this country, and to leverage power for good? They did not do that and that is why they did not win.

What she wore was never the problem: clothing and the myth of consent It’s never about what she wore – it’s about what he chose to do. Clothes are not consent and no outfit invites assault

How to be a man The right's narrative about male attractiveness is grounded in Social Darwinism and free market economics. Can progressives tell a better story?

I hope you’re right my friend. I want to believe that they’re stitching him up, just difficult to see it right now. Appreciate your input.

Also acceptance of concessions on digital regulations means that Meta et al can continue hosing our minds with shit. It’s a disaster.

Quite, but citizens can select home grown alternatives to German cars for example, but then it’s European companies who have to find new customers.

The most disheartening thing about America’s descent into fascism has been the abject cowardice of virtually all the people and institutions that could have stood up and refused to comply.

As a denizen of third world country who used the founding principles of the US as a lodestar in trying to set up a democratic government in the face of increasing authoritarianism- the thing that amazes me most about the US is 1) the cowardice and 2) the ignorance.

It absolutely makes sense that men are using AI more and seeing more job benefits, because confidently spouting nonsense in the shape of information (what LLMs are programmed to do) has always been much more of a pathway for career advancement for men than for others.

13 years ago today, I snapped this while crossing London Bridge on my way into town.

Such a moment of optimism and pride in London and these islands.

So what this country needs right now.

A great example of how unsophisticated Trump fans are is that precisely none of them are asking why Trump will release only 900 pages of the 300,000 pages of Epstein case files he already has but claims to be very interested in sharing what his friend Ghislaine Maxwell has to say
