It's morbidly hilarious that Scrooge was written as the most comically cruel businessman that a Victorian could come up with and the modern ruling class identifies with him so much that they're doing puff pieces about how he's just misunderstood.
Ti West says that Scrooge uses logic & good arguments against others in his movie ‘EBENEZER’. “As his Scrooge cuts someone down verbally or as he makes a financial point or withdraws, you do understand why he’s doing it.” (Source: ew.com/ebenezer-ian-mckellen…)

it feels a little silly sometimes to say that i strongly believe in the right to be ugly in public but when you think about it A Lot of reactionary thought is centered on ugliness being some kind of human rights violation

Ive been saying for years but adblocking is legitimately a safety measure that is more effective than an antivirus at this point
Your developers search “install Homebrew.” Attackers buy the ad above the real result. That’s how the $6.3B Binance heist started. The fix is boring on purpose: give your team a sanctioned install path, so nobody has to search. Learn more: buff.ly/9qpQyok

I really need the world to understand that compressing paragraphs into a summary is kind of like compressing a photo to a lower resolution: The more you do it, the less information is there. You are not getting all of the original picture. You’re losing color and it’s all blurry.

The central human experience is to be born into conditions of utter ignorance and abject poverty, live a short life of suffering and violence, and die broken & young. Universal literacy was one of the central achievements that allowed us to escape that.
“why don’t boys read anymore” idk man. maybe mass literacy was a historical aberration. maybe reading is not so central to the human experience as is commonly supposed. why is the act of reading itself treated with an almost moral reverence.

Calling adjuncts “ex-academics” is fucked up. Stop doing it. We’re academic workers. This is not about status. But to describe the people doing the majority of teaching in academia as somehow not part of it is just further invisibilizing their labor (just like universities do).

I've been complaining for yrs that toys have slowly just turned into underage gambling. Most kids never even touch the trinket after the initial rush of opening it. Every toy now comes w/a pamphlet so you can see if its PLATINUM or COMMON. Don't even get me started on the prices.

one thing i think is super unique and interesting about shipping on the great lakes is how the lack of corrosive saltwater means lakers can have extremely long lifespans relative to their oceangoing counterparts. seeing 80+ year old ships still in service is not uncommon! – at New York, NY

we’re like one month away from rainbow ICE agent uniforms if these people aren’t actually held accountable
Alex Karp now says that Palantir is progressive, he’s always been a Democrat, Trump went too far on immigration and his primary commitment is to economic justice. LMAOOOOOO

No Love 0/2 is out now on YouTube! Link in bio. An original animated crime story, of people and their fate, of their unsustainable debt of existence, of their corruption and violence.

This is not affordability. This is a land grab by Mike Lee.. he’s been trying to get our protected national monuments since 2016. This is devastating for the environment, offers no oversight, states can’t reject data-centers or extraction.. & we don’t want either. Water is life.
Democrats won on the promise of affordability. BAAJA would help make that promise a reality.
