I get it. Sustainability is good. Abundance (for all) is good.
Things I'm for Livable cities Public schools A national health care system Livable minimum wages But mostly livable cities. That means walkable, served by frequent public transit

"Sustainable abundance" is tech-bro code for feudalism.

I was raised not to kick people when they are down. But this m-f*cker and his Right wing media minions did nothing but attack Biden's health, question his mental acuity, etc., etc. Biden is a healthy if doddering old man. DJT is a lifetime bully who deserves whatever he gets. I hope it hurts.
I perused his posts and ... meh. No need to Follow.
I'm just around the corner bro
I'd say the tech is already here. There are security cameras that easily recognize faces (and many other things about a person) from good distance. The talking point is always some variation of, "we won't use it for..."
This is 100x better but still meh
I know I'm weird but I like this for my #workout. Also late night in the dark
Um, so he's "fired" right?
Look at this graph. The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened. This is why we must build back union power.
CEOs are trying to convince you that quiet quitting is worse than wage theft, while they plan on replacing you with a robot. Unions know better. Happy Labor Day Weekend.
Idea for #billionaires who say they are for #good Hire about 1000 full time professional journalists and send them out to cover small towns.

I read a long piece in The New Yorker weeks ago on Yarvin. He's filled with the typical hubris, neediness, unfounded self-regard, and egoism of the worst of the tech bros. He's a pathetic character but his ideas appeal to worst of the aggressive, not-so-smart but very over-confident money grubbers.
Call it Techno-authoritarianism or techno-feudalism or tech-bro libertarianism. It all stinks like the rotting smell of societal decay. newrepublic.com/article/1839...
Technofeudalism. That is exactly their sick vision.
No, they want oil, coal, big box stores, suburban sprawl, massive SUVs and 8-lane highways. Because Jesus I guess.
"Let me d!e on my golf course" is a thing I imagine being said (in my hopeful dreams)
I used to have respect for Cornel West. No more. Jill Stein was always an idiot.
Sadly, rich tech people just want to get richer
False choice. We don't "trust experts" we follow science, which is built on test and results to establish proven facts. Example: vaccines are proven safe and effective and RFK is a proven kook.
He doesn't read
thinking about the fast, efficient driverless cars we should’ve had decades ago
Same brother
GFY you disgusting little blood sucking troll
Let's do this everywhere
Add a few guns the congregants likely already have and we have militarized camps
I don't know, kids ultimately rebel against oppressive parents
Starting with you and all you mentally ill MAGAs. "Fix your hearts or die" - David Lynch
You mean idiots
Hahahaha you planted the seeds l'il fella the thunder now REAP IT
Haha what a pussy
Well it can come, but it doesn't mean anybody wants it. Google Glass, the Metaverse, etc.
The 'status quo' is 'broken' is because Rs have dominated the discussion for decades. They continually push for the worst policies and absolutely never compromise or collaborate. People voted for this - and are getting what they deserve. All because they believed the propaganda about 'woke'
No thanks
Yeah these polls always blow my mind because who TF are these 41%??
As the late great jazz musician Mose Allison wrote, "I'm not downhearted but I'm getting there."
I'm with you. I keep using M365 only because it's my cloud backup. Copilot is garbage
"Both side are the same" is the stupidest, laziest thing ever.
Dear Stephen: GFY you disgusting little pissant
Republicans are in a competition for worst human in history - and there are too many top contenders to list.
100%! I was a renter, then I bought a house, then another house, then I went back to renting. In no case did I treat my home, neighbors, or neighborhoods any differently. My theory is people who put so much of their self-worth in owning a house are trying to be elitist and are seeking privilege.
Ironic
It's so obviously unconstitutional but this court is dominated by complicit, radical fascists.
Vibes, funny laugh, there was no primary so not democratic, something about not being strong enough against Israel but mostly BLACK WOMAN I hate it here
You are absolutely correct
Tesla won't get their act together because Elmo thinks he knows better (typical hubris) and is trying to cheap out with camera 'technology' rather than lidar. Ever notice all the extra equipment on a Waymo?
Perpetually a year or two away and also we need TRAINS and SUBWAYS not self driving cars
When did Snoop become a little beeotch
I'm not an expert in handwriting analysis but I am pretty sure the slashing up and down indicates PSYCHOPATH
I absolutely HATE all AI generated 'content'. Visual arts, writing, you name it. No interest and block it everywhere I see it. The GOOD news is you can watch real films, read books, and go to live theatre. You can buy art from original artists. Most art is not 'online content'.
Tired of people attacking the Dems for not 'fighting hard enough'. How many of these critics voted for RFK Jr or Jill Stein or DJT because somehow Dems were not pure enough? How many didn't vote at all in 'protest'? Purity tests are part of why we are here.
The PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA is planning to use the US military to invade US cities that vote Democratic because, in addition to raping children, two things that animate him most are rectifying narcissistic injury and hating Black people. Call your reps 202-224-3121 #RemoveTrump
It's always the writing and this season's is weak. How many people can fit under a table, 20??
Peace on earth, can it be?
Inversely, I'm seriously going to block people have decided they HATE some Dem who's out there making noise right now and will NEVER vote for them not matter what. We don't need purity tests and other extremism.
We need many voices. All the voices. This is not the time to be campaigning, it's time to be fighting.
A lot of problems are solved when you realize not everybody likes what you like or believes that you believe, and it's better if they don't.
It messes with his poofy combover
Let's do this
Let's be honest, it's not even mediocre
Does this define the uncertainty principle?
I love how this FAT CHUD records her back. Like that'll 'get' her, eh, Mr. Gravy Seal?
Is THAT what they're big mad about?
"And sir, you definitely do NOT have a tiny penis"

Exactly. This corrupt regime embodies 'tribalism' over rule of law. Are we a nation of laws or teams? Ideals or tribes? I stand for the rule of law and common ideals. These folks have nothing but 'our team over yours'.
I just read this piece yesterday - the racial wealth gap has hardly moved since the 1960s. But also, the wealth gap in general has hardly moved. www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...
Nobody likes a police state. Nobody.
Slavery wasn't all bad amirite?
I've tried unsuccessfully to block Copilot from my Office apps. It seems to be impossible. The best I can do in Excel is to turn it off until the file is re-opened. They're trying to force AI on us. It sucks.
True, but will SC ever wake up? Maybe it'll take a hurricane destroying half the state with no FEMA response. I'm thinking no, not even then. Somehow it'll be a 'woke' hurricane.
Since the VP is such a VIP maybe we should keep the VC on the QT or else we'll all be put on KP
Thanks for the follow back. I don't know many who do either - do people read anymore?
I read NYT and The New Yorker reviews. But I take your point
A hundred bucks says those are his 'golf championship' trophies.
Da fuk
Important thread. Misinformation and conspiracy theories that RFK Jr. perpetuates are harmful to the physical well-being of our nation.
Just remember when he says "take down America" he means "take down my Fascist regime"
CA has had mail-in since 1962 and is now 80% mail-in. "In person only" voting is disenfranchisement, AND is a huge waste of time and resources. So, on brand for the GOP. www.sos.ca.gov/elections/hi...
The hunched shoulders. No eye contact, looking away at the ground. Disheveled. A beaten man
I don't know quite how to say this, but I'm old enough to remember a time when if a Russian dictator was this vulnerable the America Right would be salivating to take him and his regime out.
I don't know much but I know every tech bro prediction is wrong
Always a good sign when a Communist / Fascist dictator thinks you're doing a great job.
The "relevant principles" are cheating and lying.
This makes absolutely no sense. E.g., if you look at ancestry sites like 23andme it's 'English-Irish' and 'German-French'.
Indeed, LLMs are destructive. There are other AI applications - essentially pattern recognition and machine learning - but no one ever talks about or pushes those. It's all about IP theft and replacing human workers ("AI customer service!"). The lazy approach.
I'll observe for the umpteenth time: every GOP tough guy is a pussy
They are detached from reality, intentionally. It's all false narrative now.
AI has purposes, but chatting with me as "a friend" is not one of them
I had a convo with Meta AI and like all of my AI convos, I got progressively more pissed off at it. I hate sycophancy. E.g., "Wow, that's very insightful!" Really? What's insightful about it you gloried typewriter?
Most Americans are ignorant to current events and lack critical thinking. It's not clear to me if folks here are blaming 'Dems' for not doing something (I very much tire of that), but read one 'average Joe' voter piece and you learn all you need to know. We're a nation of idiots.
They don't understand "renowned" or "preferential". Dem be big words
It's is perfectly natural to feel disgust when confronted with something disgusting
Graphic and accurate
I have a perpetual apostrophe error that I can;t seem to fix
