- Gonna try to turn this sad depressing energy into something productive instead. Clean my office, house a bit maybe with a drink
- Reposted by AndrewFathers don’t think of their kids as genetic material to pass on. And men without kids leave a legacy in other ways. Shut the fuck up, sit down, get a job, fuck off. This isn’t a real thing serious people care about.
- Reposted by Andrew"this exists" no it doesn't "it won't work" bye "here's why that's a bad idea" also bye i've run my own thing for almost four years and there's a lot i don't know but i've learned some shit. i think a bundle subscription would be a net positive for independent journalism.
- Reposted by Andrew"that's just a newspaper" "that's just a magazine" "just form a co-op, it's easy" no, it's not, and you're driving me nuts. the idea is to pay one fee to have access to separate publications. if it were easy, we would've done it already.
- Just watched this the other night and yea. It fucking rocks.
- Reposted by AndrewWe just passed $3 million raised, powered by 57,000+ grassroots donors with an average gift of $31. This campaign is built by people, not the ultra rich or special interests like AIPAC. You decide who Congress answers to.
- Reposted by AndrewNot enough. Every single ICE and CBP agent should be out of Minnesota. The terror campaign must stop. ICE must be abolished.

- Reposted by AndrewOh hey. It's me. I'm back. I wanted to talk to all the devs who took the war chest from their popular games (and YouTube careers!) and turned it into a publishing studio to find out what they're doing differently and if its working out for them. Turns out...yeah seems like its going good!

- A good class last night. Lots of Hangetsu and leg strength training. Still not used to sanchin-dachi, after years of zenkotsu-dachi. Next session I’m def going at least 2-3 times a week so I can test for shodan
- Can’t tell if it’s the consistency or the morning yoga but I am considerably less sore after training now than when I first went back
- Reposted by AndrewJeffrey Bezos is destroying the Washington Post for the same reason Musk destroyed Twitter and Ellison is destroying CBS—oligarchs oppose the free press when if it threatens their wealth and power. They don’t want normal people to see what is happening in America.

- Reposted by AndrewSome people are asking what I want Schumer to do. He should be screaming over medical care and access to facilities. He should be going to detention facilities himself and putting his body on the line, as he did at the border in 2019. He should lean into stories about New Yorkers in detention. [1/4]
- Reposted by AndrewDon't love the wording of this - it feels a bit like saying ChatGPT is down, forcing news writers to take a long coffee break. It is a sign of things to come, though, if we don't change course: power and reliance on fewer and fewer superwealthy companies, that can squeeze you for all you have.

- Reposted by AndrewWe have enough evidence for UBI in general that this policy should be a given. But the difference is, to understand UBI works is to believe that people are fundamentally good. And a big chunk of society is built around the belief, *must maintain the belief* that people are fundamentally bad.
- Reposted by Andrewthese people are evil. There is no other explanation or reason. They are fundamentally evil. You cannot negotiate with evil.

- Reposted by AndrewBezos and Trump are at war with the arts and humanities. While trying to force “AI” on us to let machines steal ideas from the past so we can all let our critical thinking muscles atrophy in the present, they are destroying the anchors of artistic and journalistic community

- Yea finally done with that gaming news agregator or whatever his name is.
- Forgot the golden rule of the internet, if its too good to be true, it usually is.
- Reposted by AndrewThis obviously isn't true given NetEase has openly used GenAI in its games and announced GenAI related features as recently as this month. Statement from NetEase: “The situation described did not occur, and we have not published any related policies.”
- Reposted by AndrewBezos, Musk, Thiel, Zuckerberg, Ellison and a few others are like straight out of comic book villainy. These people make Lex Luthor and Dr Doom look sane. We should be talking about them the way they demonize immigrants, women and the poor. Be bigoted towards evil billionaires.

- Reposted by AndrewBuddy, you can't have it both ways. Either leftists are a vital voting bloc, in which case you have to actually compromise with us if you want our votes, or we're a meaningless fringe minority, which means you can't blame us for your milquetoast candidates losing.
- Reposted by AndrewThe Epstein emails should really end the debate over whether society should have billionaires. "Do you want there to be a class of people so powerful they can fuck your kids and no one will even try to do anything" seems like an easy sell if everyone in politics wasn't trying to get on their payroll
