This is what I need people to understand when they start grousing about "resist libs": these are people who hate ICE with their entire, folk-art-making, cornfed hearts. You cannot sit around and write people off as potential allies because you're not personally into their aesthetics.
Tim Hirschel-Burns@timhirschelburns.bsky.social · last wk.Oh that’s not all, folks. Antifa Waldo, beatifications of ICE martyrs, ICE agents slipping, and more—all from the likes of corn, barley, and alfalfa
Stick your militant doomer bullshit up your ass. Everybody isn't required to share your precious cynicism.
We also know that AI is only helpful if you have the discipline specific skills and knowledge to understand when, how, and why the AI is giving you incorrect results. Therefore the most important thing we can do to prepare students to work with AI is double down on the fundamentals.
At the climax of the book of Job, God responds to a cogent and detailed argument from Job by screaming about how Job should shut the fuck up because he’s not the one who fought and defeated a sea monster. You must study the Bible to learn that people have always known what it’s like to post.
It's so sick that popcorn is pre-columbian. Imagine getting a basket of hot popcorn, a big gourd of chicha, and settling in for some Meso-American ballgame
The Recurring Speed Camera Discourse is a bit exasperating really because, look, we all know what's actually happening is people just want to be able to commit the pertinent crimes and don't like being punished for it, but people come up with obvious post-hoc pseudo-woke rationalisations for this.
Approximately 74% - 80% of drivers ticketed by New York City's speed camera ticket do not receive a second one. Speeding dropped by 94 percent reduction in locations where cameras were installed. www.nyc.gov/html/dot/htm...

14 hours later and my mentions are still full of angry treatises about badly behaved cyclists. Bike lanes are not a reward for good cyclist behavior! They are infrastructure proven to make cities safer for ALL ROAD USERS. Whatever way cyclists have wronged you is irrelevant to the discussion!
Katie Mack@astrokatie.com · 3w agoEvery conversation about bike lanes is like: "Car crashes kill a huge number of people every day, including pedestrians, cyclists, & car occupants. Good bike infrastructure has been shown to make everyone safer (& doesn't increase congestion)." "But sometimes cyclists break rules & hit people!"
It’s super fucking weird that this is like the consensus position among most urban scholarship but no one is able to see the tension. White flight is bad! But white professionals moving back to the city? Yeah also bad.
I have spent 20+ years talking to drivers who have counterfactual complaints about bike riders. My conclusions...
Personally, I think what needs reckoning with is how fake it all was. Centrists convinced themselves annoying leftists on twitter were an equivalent threat to Jan 6 insurrectionists. They wildly inflated the threat of left-wing authoritarianism while ignoring how it was taking hold on the right.
How come after a concert or sporting event or rush hour it’s not called a “car takeover”? Streets are for people
Daily Planet@dailyplanetdc.bsky.social · 4w agoWhat started as a single viral post turned into two nights of scooter meetups across downtown Minneapolis, drawing hundreds of riders of all ages.

There's a guy who built a full-body war elephant puppet and is hiking Hannibal's route over the Alps with his toddler. If you've got a billion dollars and you devote a single second of your life to accumulating more wealth instead of doing shit like this, I don't think you should count as a person

Absolutely unbelievable how solar power has taken off worldwide during the Hormuz oil crisis. You don't have to hand it to him, but Trump may have done more to finally kick off a global civilization of effete librul solar users than anyone else in the West
The first three towers of the Sen̓áḵw in Vancouver. A major Indigenous-led, multi-tower residential and commercial development project by the Squamish Nation located on ancestral reserve land. Meaning "the place inside the head of False Creek."
researchers: every unit of currency we put into this welfare service not only makes the user's life materially better, but returns about 150% of the spending in how it benefits society more broadly. right wing: ok but what if too many people use it though? also "too many" is "more than zero" here

Centrists in Congress (anonymously) threatening to leave this Democratic Party. James Carville calling for a schism. Top Dems refusing to endorse Dem primary winners. Pouty (also anonymous) pro-Israel donors in MI calling for a donor strike—I wrote about the emerging centrist Uncommitted Movement.
A new, centrist Uncommitted Movement has emerged
Except this time it’s in support of genocide, rather than trying to stop one.

As someone who loves older architecture and thinks genuine preservation is important, the historic preservation in our cities is deeply broken. This project in New York is preserving an existing 3 story building but was not approved and told to make revisions. Can you tell the difference?
