It’s that classic tweet: “this is bad for your cause” says a guy who hates your cause and hates you. The slatestarcodex squad didn’t believe there was any reason to protest but thought that if people must protest they should have the decency to do it in a way that didn’t cause them to be 5 minutes late on their way to lunch.
nonviolent civil disobedience and direct action are just tactics that work in specific circumstances and can achieve specific goals. pretty much every violent movement for change was supported by non-violent movements. and non-violence often appears in a form that is unacceptable to the slatestarcodex contingent. Like Daniel Berrigan destroying Vietnam draft cards, or Catholic Workers attacking US warplanes with hammers, or Black Lives Matter activists blocking a highway or Meredith and Verity Burgmann running onto the pitch during a South African rugby match.
These guys really are just another boring cult. They’re Christian Scientists. They’re aesthetic realists.
Also more than the president of the US.
It irks me to see people casually use the term “brutalist” when what they really mean is “modern architecture that I don’t like”. It really irks me to see people apply the term brutalist to something that has nothing to do with architecture! It’s a very specific term!
Depends on if your cat writes a review.
Saw this on my YouTube subscriptions: that creepy racist breeding kink couple are continuing their international press tour. Go away!
Funnily enough, there are a lot of data centres in Ireland. Maybe there will be a missile strike and Ireland’s population will shrink back to 19th century numbers
I’m aware of the idea, but it’s still very weird for someone to pretend to be Jewish and also be a Nazi!
Close enough, welcome back Rachel Dolezal. Although in fairness to Rachel Dolezal*, she at least went to work for the NAACP, rather than becoming a footsoldier of fascism.
No wonder this guy thought Zohran Mamdani was trying to lie about his racial identity: he lies like he breathes, and assumes others do too
*You do not, under any circumstances, gotta hand it to Rachel Dolezal
Fucking hell. Not the most important part of the story, but his elaborate lies about being Jewish are very very weird. Kind of like white Americans pretending that they’re Cherokee I guess?
I have become aware that there is a very right wing Catholic podcaster who has a Catholicism AI chatbot app. It’s called Truthly.

If someone could call up Pope Leo and get him to excommunicate the guys who invented this, that would be great.
I should really start looking into Linux huh
Fork found in kitchen
That Michael Kove guy is one un-self-aware twat. Apparently all millennials work in high paying tech jobs.
That Couple are in the news arís. surprisingly, the racist, sexist dog holds opinions that a racist, sexist dog could be expected to hold, and doesn’t think poor people should have more babies. He does want Native Americans to have more babies, though, because they’re “on the verge of extinction”, and he thinks of cultural groups and races as exhibits in a human zoo. Simone Collins sits next to her racist, sexist dog of a husband and explains how paid parental leave could lead to companies being reluctant to hire women (although her husband seems to think all women are good for is having kids).
This gruesome twosome deserve each other: their kids don’t.
I do indeed. A bucket always seemed like pretty poor.protection from the end of the world, even if it was full of purified water and high protein MREs and whatever else. I suppose you could put it on your head and make like Ned Kelly
Planning for securing food in a nuclear winter? What a great wheeze. If your advice isn’t any good, nobody can tell until there’s a nuclear winter, and if there is a nuclear winter they won’t exactly be able to ask for their money back because they’ll be too busy dying of radiation sickness.
I know zilch about linux but I think there was some discussion in here about suckless. Well look at what I came across on an honest to god nazi’s website*:
*yes, I have reported this site to their web hosting provider.
