He/Him. Teacher, gundam fan, trying to read enough books until I go mad.
imprison all of the pardoned people illegally and pardon the people who jail them, you gotta hit them with the reverse calvinball
Hey Jimmy, give me a positional good with nothing on it.
idea for Mamdani: a single small, progressive public honors high school wholly devoted to the liberal arts, no external testing regime, no “early college,” no AI pilot, no contracts with Microsoft or its subsidiaries
Unfortunately the traditional solutions were crime and substance abuse
oh I have to disagree on this one. I think it’s extremely important for people (especially children) to be bored and to have fo come up with ways to relieve boredom that are not Scrolling
we've identified another vulnerability leak. now hackers on the dark web have identified your bad knee and that weird thing your shoulder does if you sleep on it wrong. there's no patch available for this, they're now just keenly aware you feel like your career has stalled out
plugging second monitor in to home desktop: the weekend is upon us. good times are back forever plugging second monitor in to work laptop: the yoke of tyranny weighs heavily upon my cursed shoulders. the long dark midnight of the soul is here.
People really want a woke/metaphysical reason to continue to believe the only way fat people can redeem themselves is through intensive deprivation and super human willpower that no one else is expected to have

The majority of American voters are happy with this as a cost for owning their own guns. They might say in polls they want something but in actual referendums they wont vote for it. The GOP remains more trusted on gun rights than Dems! Sick sick society
A hundred and fifty years ago it was still possible to stay up late reading your correspondence BUT ONLY BECAUSE THE GUYS FROM MOBY DICK WERE DOING MOBY DICK TO THOUSANDS OF WHALES.
Living in a country that elected Trump twice and also telling myself that the silent majority agrees with me and wants the same goods and services I want and are simply tricked into bad behavior.

Honestly I think you're overthinking it. Contracting is a really inefficient industry and is especially expensive in rich areas, a lot of this is just frustration at how expensive it is to get anything done on their house turned into a half-baked political statement
Severian, what the fuck are you doing on that ship? Lock the fuck in or I swear to Tzadkiel…
The estimated lifespan of the outer solar system has been downgraded from 100 billion years to just a few billion years, according to a study that probed “terminal instability” during the Sun’s death.
Mutuals who like Gene Wolfe or are curious about his work, this is a great deal! Husband and I are def pulling the trigger on this one, so our e-library Wolfe collection will end up matching the physical one.
Best Humble Bundle or Best Humble Bundle ever? Gene Wolfe was one of speculative fiction's best writers, with The Book of the New Sun being a masterpiece, closely followed by The Book of the Short Sun, The Fifth Head of Cerberus, and others. Give him a shot for just $20 for most of his novels.
look, i think these people should just be honest and say that their kids are too dumb and lazy for their socioeconomic status to self replicate so they want to shrink the talent pool, (which wont work because it will also shrink the demand for talent)
as ever i'm struck by the doublethink of these people, who feel the need to dress up their mindless longing for heirarchy and exclusion in the language of liberalism--"high trust," material prosperity, blah blah blah it's a form of magical thinking: "if we do enough racism, good things will happen"
all the things that God would have us do are hard for us to do
Going to work now feels like doing homework after the teacher quit and told the class that education is fake. Everyone just coasting on inertia and hoping there's still a point to all this
Have I played “Control Resonant”? Sorry…I’m too busy reading the story of a man who “Controls Rocinante”…that’s right, Miguel Cervantes’ immortal tale “Don Quixote de La Mancha”. So you enjoy your strange “Federal Bureau”…I’ll be delighting in the adventures of Sancho Panza and his “Friendly Burro”
An energy weapon (work computer) is beaming harmful rays (emails) at me
If everyone had to put their kids on planes everyday at public cost lots of those safety standards would go out the window pretty quickly.
