Male awkwardness obv isn’t just about sex/dating/romance and I love DSA reversing atomization but I gotta be real there was particular pressure a few years ago for socialist women to be rehabilitating incels and NEETs that was toxic.

This is true and good in many ways but can come at a cost to women in DSA, particularly younger ones who are sometimes very frequently approached for dating or sex when they’re just trying to organize.

I see we have arrived at the rewriting history point of the centrist pundit turn on Gaza.

Enjoying the fact that the monitor to check baby’s movements works the exact same way as a seismograph. At least I won’t cause any tsunamis?

I enjoy knowing that the people most likely to believe in government weather control are least likely to believe in anthropogenic climate change and most likely to homeschool their kids.

Well, I sent it. I wonder whether a media boycott campaign would have any value with NPR’s funding being cut.

RT @amazonlabor: Please read our executive board’s statement below. (1/4).

Having friends in their early twenties is a reminder of how constant sexual harassment was at that age.

The em dash gets too much attention in the ChatGPT diagnosis conversations. It might be a signal to start looking closer but it's not enough on its own. There are a bunch of other AI tics too in GPT writing - like setting up a paragraph with a rhetorical question.

The thing about the social class I was born into is that there are a lot of people who love their kids, are good to their spouses, helpful to their neighbors, friendly with their coworkers, etc who afford a life of comfort by working jobs that kill, disable, impoverish others.

Just saw the NYT reporting that the midtown mass shooter was reported by a seller at a Nevada gun show for buying an insane amount of ammunition. I love how this clearly triggered an appropriate response, as opposed to a helluva lot of nothing!!.

This message would go over a lot smoother if I hadn't lost friendships, had horrible arguments with loved ones, and been called an anti-semite by public figures for two years, not to mention risking arrest, for speaking out - and now everyone wants to have fucking amnesia.

Excited to be able to wear pants again.
