Democrats in office need to know: all of us with very few exceptions want all of you with very few exception to lose your god damn jobs because you refuse to do them.

It's an artistic representation of a circulatory system walking through a kitchen, as drawn by Dave Gibbons and written about by Alan Moore. It happens a lot 'round here.

Happy There Is A Circulatory System Walking Through The Kitchen Day to all who celebrate.

You are embarrassing yourself by lauding this monster. Do you defend these views, which he held lifelong. Where is the "nuance in these words?" Shame!

We have the collective power to limit suffering and embrace love and mercy. Stop looking for god out there and start doing the right thing, and you'll find god is right there with you.

When your hands feed a starving baby, that's the divine spark acting in you and through you. And when you starve the baby, that's the manichaean opposite, satan in christocentric terms, acting in you. The gnostics got it right, no one alone is god but collectively we make up all the shattered parts.

Presumably like a tangerine but 3 slices upsvex••westchron on the quaternion flavor surface, so nothing like a tangerine and more like the difference between what you remember a tangerine to be like and what it actually is, with a faint taste of ultraviolet added.

Now you have me craving void chaos flavor

"No you see this 1488 tatto is just in honor of the year Bartolomeu Dias rounded the Cape of Good Hope, why, what did you possibly think it could have meant? Oh, that? Well, guess I'll cover it up with a nice omega *coverup tattoo of an odal rune*"

The figshare link says the title of the paper and then... nature methods says it doesn't exist and a google search only returns that figshare page. So uh this paper might not exist.

“The president demolished the White House.”

“The president politicized the FBI and DOJ to go after his opponents.”

“The president is why life is more expensive today.”

“The president was besties with Epstein.”

Messaging isn’t hard and makes you wonder why Dems aren’t saying this every day.

Why do First Class tickets get their own shorter TSA lane? Doesn't this violate the equal protection clause? Isn't this clearly discrimination based on wealth? I can understand precheck because you pay to get cleared in advance. But that doesn't hold water for general security.

The actual numbers are made-up bullshit and he's generally made prices go up. But what he's trying to communicate is the inverse of markup. If I mark up by 600%, the new price is 7x the old. So "-600%" he's trying to communicate a new price 1/7 of the old. We don't have good language to convey this.

Yes, and as someone who has had a bad experience, I would like people to be aware that sometimes they can also threaten lives, especially when underlying health shifts and obviates the need for them. They are valuable and lifesaving and also require caution due to danger. Two things can be true.

Updating my LEGO White House

As an expert in a field, our easy explanations are often oversimplifications for "it's very complex and we barely understand it but it seems to follow these models," but also I have experienced at least one thing that cannot be explained without assuming metaphysics, so I am reluctant to discuss it.

Hold up, frickin' Roblox?

Mamdani is already getting the criminals out of NYC!

It's all intersectional, the very idea that you can dictate who fits where within the hierarchy, whether based on race or orientation or labor rank, presumes the hierarchy must exist. There must be a power differential to abuse power.

Is that the Strong National Museum of Play?

Shrug I'm just going to assume your opinion is a spinor so 360° is a spin flip, and you need 2x360° to achieve the initial state.

I believe in unions and strong labor and abolition from unjust hierarchy, where all stakeholders are continued and no one is exploited. And also the only way to do this is with pluralism. You have to let people be free to disagree. Reconciliation of adversarial positions is how we improve consensus.

Same with Reagan/Bush era conservatives, yes we disagree on economic fundamentals but right now the very baseline of civil and plural society is under attack, and preserving this common ground is how we make disagreement safe and possible. Labor freedom requires bedrock democracy, not autocracy.

Let's be fair here: almost always, the right and center (and even center-left) sell out their society to fascism rather than see the left in power. So when groups I disagree with often, like Cato, take principled stands for good values, that's above average. Uncanny allies are still allies.

For example, see this preprint on arxiv that found mechanical constraints (skull case size) correlate much more strongly to brain folding than phylogeny, it's preserved across the whole clade, with diverged species with similar skull size being more similar than closely related with different sizes.

Not to be contrarian, but perhaps we should start from the hypothesis that the mileu in which an organism evolved might play a role in how it develops. Biological/Biochemical processes exist in a world with physics, so it should not come as a surprise that biology relies on mechanical forces.

In a functioning society, we would regulate these technologies. Instead, we're pushing technologies that lie extremely convincingly without real safeguards.

I'm not anti-AI as a tool, but Abliterated (safeguards removed) models are freely available and I have run them locally. It's already too late

If no one is using this to determine the jungian archetype of the concept of fish, they should be

The cruelty with which they go after non-citizens indiscriminately is itself a threat of what they will do when they go after citizens like they are openly saying they are planning to do.
