The question is not whether I should kick the puppy. The puppy is innevitably getting kicked. The question is whether I can kick the puppy in a sustainable, inclusive and empowered way. How can people be supported in kicking puppies for good? Let’s stop the puppy kick gatekeeping already.

not giving details obv but i simply don't think like 15+ people should have to pool together information to make sure a patient gets the care that they need. i think we should make a healthcare system that is good.
involuntary hold facilities really put the 'health' part of 'mental health' in small font. called to deliver pertinent medical information about a patient and the receptionist basically hit me with "Nah".

the fuck do you mean "Nah"? "we got a doctor on it" a doctor of telepathy? a fucking cleric???

OKAY but legitimately it is a problem how everything related to the MAHA quackery movement means any sort of legitimate patient advocacy very quickly gets shot down with "I'm The Doctor" and/or eyes glazing over because they're used to anti-science, "alt medicine", or whatever other bullshit.

Tell me again why trans people should sit back and be quiet? Lots of us will be in therapy for years trying to undo the damage this has caused us.

It's not a small issue.
Digital ad spending on anti trans ads is on pace with 2024 and could potentially exceed it. Despite some reporting that PACs might be retreating on anti trans ads, that doesn't seem to be the case.

obviously the media is a joke but the reason theyre not covering this is because democrats arent making it an issue

the media would do it. they would. they’re lazy and they just want to go “the other side is saying this thing, how do you respond?”
imagine if the mainstream media covered Republicans' number one donor — the biggest political donor in US history! — and his controversial views with as much scrutiny as they covered Hasan Piker's

NEW: WA Ferries wanted you to think their workers are whiny babies who make $350k. The truth is more complicated and more sympathetic --- workers making $65k, engine room paid 20% less than above deck, and those making the big bucks working 70 hour weeks. www.theburnerseattle.com/post/washing...

it was smart of jacob geller to only post about what he did to his 50k followers on here instead of to his 1.5 million youtube subs or on his patreon. that way fewer people know about it and he limits the financial hit

Have you noticed, lately, or noticed people around you commenting, that there just seems to be no money anymore. There's no money for companies to make the tv shows you like, the video games you like, the local diner you like shut down, no one you know can find a job.

AI is now the biggest investment in all of US history as a percentage of GDP.

Datacenter construction is up, all other construction is down.

"AI Is Squeezing Out the Rest of the Stock Market," reported WSJ 2 days ago.

We basically bet the whole economy on the most optimistic visions panning out.
Part of why I don't like the AI-or-bust economy is the constant flopsweat of people on the news who say this HAS to work. Quit making everyone so anxious. Goddamn. If this is the next Google then why are you acting like this? I don't remember being told to buy an iPhone at gunpoint.

Why the rush to declare Claude sentient? It’s so white nationalists can then deem it superior, cognitively and morally, to non-white people, and continue to attack and erode their civil rights.
