mathemagic, please.

I thought I remembered hearing they were trans but I didn’t see it mentioned in the article I looked up to refresh my memory. Article did mention they were both black women, though.

This is the guy who got saved from an ass beating in MN, shoved into a stranger’s car, and wouldn’t tell the driver who he was or why everyone was trying to kick his ass. Just kept telling his rescuers that Trump “saved his life”.

They kicked him out a few blocks later.

I wouldn’t call Matt Yglesias a tank or accuse him of having thoughts.

While the GOP shamelessly uses the power of government to oppress their ideological enemies, the Dems are more interested in “moving past” their counterpart’s crimes, maintaining a healthy GOP, and promoting bipartisanship. Which is why George Bush is a free man and on friendly terms with the Obamas.

Pretty sure it’s from Serial Experiments Lain, a show I’ve heard much about but haven’t watched yet so I’m not 100% certain about this.

My “comrades” are like people who signed up to the same email server, were not all familiar with each other. There’s not some meeting or private chat I can bring the matter to.

Is there anybody of significance, or significant number of people, saying these things? Or are we letting the trolls dictate the worst takes for everyone?

I don’t know of anybody who could be accurately described as “tankie” who would be against anything he’s done. They might say it doesn’t go far enough, but I wouldn’t describe that as “butthurt”. Where are you encountering comments like that?

The Catholic Church is on the same level as many of those companies, and guilty of many of the same crimes. It’s absolutely “relative” and relevant to the topic at hand.

Unless they’re literally roasting them over an actual literal fire I don’t care. You can’t shame the shameless.

i guess were getting into the philisophical question of “is ‘no gender’ a gender?”

gotta account for people who say “no” to “gender?”

That’s not even a full byte! Surely we can spare 6 more bits and support 255 genders.

imagine telling the 2000s version of yourself that bush would be the smartest republican president in your lifetime.

I don’t think the moon landing was faked, but I’d maybe make sure this one makes it before gloating. This NASA isn’t the same one that landed there last time.

Me too, which is why I hate this fucking holiday.

Further proof that this is the shittiest holiday only celebrated by the most insufferable.

probably fewer soon

Yeah, the algorithms also form a similar feedback loop with their trades. Then you have people and competing algorithms predicting what those algorithms will do and trading based off that and the result is an entirely vibes based economy.

Much of the trading on Wall Street isn’t done by humans, and what remains of human trades are increasingly influenced by automatic tools. These tools and algorithms aren’t aware of context; they base their trades on moment to moment vibes, basically. They tap various news sources, social media posts, etc for signals that indicate a market direction.
