Gentle nerd freak of the pacific northwest. All nation states are vermin.

  • I feel like a lot of people are misinterpretting your comment because of the way republicans frequently use "clintonzes are evilzes!" as a distraction from their own much greater problems.

    I'd think the order wouldn't come from clinton himself - gotta keep plausible deniability.

    But i definitely agree with you - it's unsurprising that the FBI under clinton declined to investigate child pornography allegations against a child sex trafficker who has strong links to clinton.

  • 30% of US adults voted for trump - that 30-35% mark is probably about the total support that fascists can muster.

    And yet people keep insisting the problem is the american people and not the corrupt system that allows minority rule.

  • It was almost certainly written by gpt, you can tell because it doesn't make any sense but still manages to be objectively incorrect.

    Information already is knowledge, and that's not what gpt does.

  • I don't think it's correct to say the people want trump. Only ~30% of US adults voted for him.

  • What the american people want has almost no bearing on what the elites who control the american empire decide to do.

    No major policy has matched public opinion since the end of the civil rights era. In gender, ethnicity and wealth, our representatives are not representative of us either.

    It's naive to think we live in a democracy.

  • I was gonna recommend Othan by Heilung, it sounds like casting a spell.

  • I don't know that it's wise to trust what anthropic says about their own product. AI boosters tend to have an "all news is good news" approach to hype generation.

    Anthropic have recently been pushing out a number of headline grabbing negative/caution/warning stories. Like claiming that AI models blackmail people when threatened with shutdown. I'm skeptical.

  • elected him

    Someone doesn't understand how our oligarchy's electoral system works.

  • This was just a top notch meme. Informative and a very clever arrested developement reference.

  • I guess i don't really see the point. Is there a strong use case out there, or is this a marge's potato? ("I just think they're neat")

  • It's the washington post in 2025, what do you expect?

  • This kind of useless performative busy-ness is one of the stupidest forms virtue signalling.

  • Edit: i didn't realize the watermark completely obscured the word conundrum 😭

  • Love is the ultimate painkiller?

  • Oxytosin? Not sure on the spelling

  • loudly talking about the anal sex with a trans person they had over the weekend.

    Oh that sounds lovely.

    If you say it was problematic in context i have to believe you, but i would happily take that over the advice a psychic gave them, obviously made up trauma dumps, or how the eastern orthodox church is the one true faith - all real examples from my current coworkers.

  • She doesn't really go on about it though.

    There's a kind of terminally online identity-yelling that's easy to spot and definitely a red flag, but she rarely talks about her personal life at work, other than mentioning samhain and yule.

    I found out who she claims to be from coworkers who use mainstream socials and stalked her.

  • I work in residential mental health and my boss is a progressive queer wiccan. I thought we'd get on great.

    But then she started using an HR mistake i told her about to falsely bill medicare, and lied about not knowing in official emails. She tried to force me to pay for a company parking ticket and acted shocked when i wouldn't.

    When a staff was punched in the head by a resident in the evening she took hours to arrive on site, told the staff they had to finish their shift before going to the hospital, then let them drive themself after a possible concussion, and tried to get staff to reclassify it as a non critical incident.

    Not truly evil, but sociopathetically dishonest in her dealings, and about who she is.

  • Or the people who had to work, or couldn't wait for 3h at their neighborhood polling place, or have disengaged from politics for any number of reasons, or were educated here and earnestly didnt know how important this last election was.

    Low voter turnout is an inevitable symptom of a corrupt system.
