I love social deduction games, like Nice Or Humoring the Tranny? I play that one at least a couple of times a day and it never gets old

"The human animal is a beautiful and terrible creature, capable of limitless compassion and unfathomable cruelty." I'm a huge problem to a sane world she/her
a lot of the same info but also mindblowing the increase in yields and lower water use, etc. it's very exciting also the plans to put solar over reservoirs to lower evaporation sounds rad too energiesmedia.com/solar-panels...
American farmers slid solar panels over 62,000 acres of farmland, and the biggest payoff had almost nothing to do with electricity
Long rows of solar panels march across the desert, and underneath them, where the ground should be baked and bare, there are rows of green.

A really funny complaint about the Zohran discount grocery store idea is that non-poor people could use it when there’s a grocery store half a mile from my grocery store that has everything cost 20% more that rich people go to because they don’t want to shop with normal people.
Agrivoltaics is the shit! There is such an incredible future trying to be born if we can stop the people trying to abort it!
Massachusetts farm installs 832 solar panels above berry fields, and the berries grown underneath turned out sweeter and juicier and could change the future of American farming - The Economic Times share.google/GDGqQBgisqhG...
This is funny because Cramer but let's not pretend there was ever any reason for Musk's companies to be valuable other than "he's a genius and he'll make us a lot of money, somehow, in the future, probably, I assume"
Jim Cramer just now on Elon Musk and why you should buy SpaceX: “Because our minds are small and his mind is big.”
regular reminder to americans to read the wikipedia page of the german media company that bought politico, axel springer SE, which is probably the dominant force of rightwing propaganda in germany after ww2
Progressives didn’t get the big election night they wanted
Too many rich people imagine poverty as just being a little bit less rich than they are. That’s one of the main reasons they don’t understand Vimes.

a reason that Stevens lost and other AIPAC candidates are losing despite the huge infusions of money is that Dem voters don't want to vote for a candidate who is funded by the same org who will immediately turn around and fund the Republicans
AIPAC: "Our members remain determined to ensure that voters reject Dr. El-Sayed and his radical anti-Israel agenda in November."
Meta has made it repeatedly clear that one of their growth strategies is sexualizing kids. Mark Zuckerberg and his leadership team deserve to face personal liability for this, and the company deserves sanctions up to and including corporate dissolution
Over the last nine months, Mark Zuckerberg’s Meta has run dozens of paid ads that include explicit AI-generated child sexual abuse material (CSAM) and images of minors alongside sexually suggestive statements, according to details of the ads shared with WIRED.
Taking my time to really listen and learn from the very valid concerns of the MAHA movement:
we should hear MAHA out about this they might be onto something
a whole bunch of spacecraft have crashed into the moon actually but Elon Musk is still a Nazi like it's not *good* to litter the Moon but to add some context, this is like the 50th time this has happened

The specific brainworms that make liberals think this is cute or fair or clever or whatever other quality they think this kind of handing power to people who want them dead represents need to be fumigated
And this is why people hate the Dem establishment. www.nytimes.com/2026/08/04/u...
there are vanishingly few "red" states but there's a bunch of states with illegitimate white supremacist oligarchies who are really good at gerrymandering and keeping people who are entitled to vote from doing so
Texas isn't a red state. It's a state held hostage by gerrymandering and voter suppression. Hell, earlier this week they announced they're shutting down half the voting centers in Tarrant County (that's Fort Worth, 2.2 million people) and kicked everyone out of the hearing who wanted to comment.

This is a sentimental essay about politics, which I know isn't the fashion, and yet the editors at @newrepublic.com let me write something personal about the Lone Star State. Link in the replies.
ya know what I'm curious about? What happens to people who go *off* AI Like, the deskilling happens fast. But do they get those skills back if they stop? Or have we not seen anyone go the other way yet?
several studies that go into how fast/severe your brain atrophies even with short term use makes me think a lot of people will be severely fucked in the coming decades
"This story is about Female Rage, where a woman gets angry over being horribly mistreated and abused, but eventually learns to forgive and move on and be a nurturing kind soul instead of vengeful, which would be masculine and unbecoming---" Shut up. Let women rip out their abuser's spines.
Again with the "bigots claim totally made up shit, experts disagree" headline!

This is the problem with filling up every role with connected failchildren, from consultants to organizers. There is an actual job to be done and none of them know how to do it. They're getting lapped by DSA kids with next to no money behind them just doing it intuitively
KOSA is a Heritage Foundation project that many Democrats support because those Democrats are two-faced buffoons.
KOSA. The SCREEN Act. The CHATBOT Act. The Youth AI Privacy Act. Four different bills, with the same flawed approach: more surveillance, more data collection, and less privacy online. Tell the Senate to reject all four. www.acteff.org/campaign/16...
The original guidance was as close as you can get to a common sense intergration and balancing of everyone's collective and individual rights to dignity and privacy. Which is why they had to get rid of it.
In 2011, the UK government response to antitrans provocations was "Don't be so bloody stupid".
I am actually infuriated by this assumption, as writers and artists of all kinds, that if our work runs up against the audience’s ignorance (vocabulary, intertexuality, &c.) this is somehow a failing, our fault and something it is our responsibility to avoid.
Obviously. And the world is in any case full of references to unfamiliar things, if people are perplexed surely they can look it up?
