Medicine. Medicine has grown by leaps and bounds. You cannot introduce vaccines that crater cancer rates, cure AIDS, and cure sickle cell, and then tell me things have only gotten worse. Also: Food. To a HUGE degree. I eat what I once considered rare treats every day, now.

Food, man. Food is so much better than it was in 1986. All of it. Poor-people food, restaurant food, fresh food, frozen food. Food is just a hell of a lot better.

air travel is one of those experiences that has gotten monotonically worse over my entire lifetime

question though: has *anything* in the last 40+ years genuinely gotten *better*?

like, there's *more* stuff, sure, but is any of it *better*?

Hey why is bluesky specifically showing "these mutuals liked this post!" on the post UI now Im already not a fan of "these people you follow also follow this person!", could we -not- do that on every fucking post too I hope theres an option to turn that off

finally read Black Flame by @scumbelievable.bsky.social and I think it has the most loving depiction of a fat person I have ever read? it is also vicious, violent, gross, sexy, uncomfortable, and triumphant. I loved it. if you've not read anything by her yet this is a great place to start, imo.

Rewatching TLOK and the amount of times I'm like "Damn, these male villains are really fucking creepy about this teenage girl." is crazy. Like Season 2 she deadass gets groomed by her uncle (who knows how sheltered she is) and is that not crazy to y'all?

Its embarrassing how many grown ass adults live in these fantasies where people work for some nonsense like the artificial cultures oligarchs manufacture over survival.

Dumbass CEO of Anthropic thinks people should work for the "corporate mission" over survival.

Yep. One of the most disgusting things about the US is that at most points in US history, white people could insult other white people, just by suggesting that they care about other people. So white folk deny it. "I'm not an n-word lover, but..." "I'm not PC, but.." "I'm not woke, but..." 🤷🏿‍♂️

Obviously this is a dipshit opinion. But since I sometimes see people on the left rolling their eyes about those signs, I just want you all to know that the other night some lost Black teens came to our house after taking the wrong bus and we were able to get them home. Why’d they pick us? Signs.
