Except he didn't fund it, I did, paying a much higher tax rate than the white supremacist. Those thrusters are SpaceX tech for which we—not him—have paid ~$31 billion. I paid for those cold gas thrusters and the software running them, and what I get in exchange is a short video and white supremacy.
do think there's a danger of looking at extremely cool shit like a car driving upside down then doing a kickflip before landing, and convincing yourself it's actually lame because the guy funding it is a white supremacist

I’d also argue that the next Dem president should make red states tap dance for disaster aid, as well. We can’t exist in a system where only one side plays by civilized rules. We must all agree to the same rules.

Democrats must make clear that when in power anyone at the DOJ involved in the Omar investigation will lose their jobs and get disbarred.

As a software engineer married to a molecular biologist I’ve come to appreciate that the reason LLMs are great at code and algebra is that it’s a trivially simple problem space for little babies. The complexity of how genes are expressed comparatively gives me vertigo.

That's why it's so amazing what Ossoff is doing. "You are disgusting and I despise you" feels like cleansing fire after the last decade of having to acknowledge that They Are Real Americans and We Are Not

same as Osoff dismantling Rogers on stage to his face. “This man is a gutter racist, and a moron. Do not vote for him.”
Rogers was befuddled. He didn’t know Osoff was allowed to do that.

re kachiyan one of my favorites from her was how she took the position that anyone who had both (a) had any children and (b) still posted online was not just cringe but a morally unworthy opinion. she held this view right up until the moment she became a single mother and upped her posting

I know it’s minor, but I really love how she used “amoral” in lieu of “immoral” because it sounds punchier and more sophisticated.
Amoral! Fuck me. I mean, say what you want about the tenets of Strasserism, Jane, at least it's an ethos.
