Those pesky anarchists out here feeding the hungry and building dual power through community! If people can depend on each other for safety, security and human dignity how will the state continue to maintain its control!
Also, they use violence as a means of protest, only the police can use violence! No fair!
The Good Place is overall pretty positive. Same with Parks and Recreation as well as Abbot Elementary.
Their small squad tactics are unbelievable! Kids these days will just lay down suppression fire and flank you, no respect!
I bet I could convince you that there are no winners in global thermonuclear war with just 1000 games of tic tac toe.
I’m not a democrat, I’m a leftist.
No, leftists are like vegans. Call a vegan a vegetarian, “I’m not a vegetarian, I’m a vegan!”
Call a leftist a democrat, “I’m not a democrat, I’m a leftist!”
(btw, I’m a leftist. Not a vegan though)
If someone refuses to admit their political affiliation in the US you can basically guarantee they’re right wing.
This sounds awesome. I usually put smoked ham hock in with a pot of collared greens but I’ll have to try it with barley. Thanks!
Stockton Rush is a killer and should be charged posthumously with four counts of negligent homicide. He’s just as culpable, if not more, that someone who gets behind the wheel drink and kills their passengers.
Wow, I hope Paul can defeat the Harkonen, he could do some real good in the galaxy. What they really need is to put their faith in a charismatic leader.
Also, I’m sad that Duncan Idaho died. I feel like if he lived there’s no chance he would become insufferable in the distant future.
The issue with this approach is that it further entrenches gaps that are already there. The best predictor of economic outcome is zip code. That’s because schools are funded by local property tax. Live in a wealthier area, get better schools. Better schools lead to a better outcome. Schools in poorer districts stay poorer. It’s a system that is self perpetuating.
Replacing affirmative action with something that is strictly income based could help but that ignores other systemic biases that are based on race rather that income.
I feel like if we’re ending affirmative action we should also put in place more restrictions on legacy admissions which is just affirmative action for dumb, rich kids and represents a much bigger chunk of students than affirmative action ever did.
I played Smushi Come Home. It’s about a little mushroom making their way home. It’s a platformer with some light puzzle elements. Really reminded me of A Short Hike, both in vibes and length. It clocked in at about 3 hrs but was mad cozy.
True, but in Unidan’s defense, it was a jackdaw, not a crow.

It’s well known but usually taught in the later years of high school (15-17 year olds). I don’t think they’re teaching things like the Tulsa massacre, the Wilmington massacre, Rosewood or the MOVE bombing in schools. Maybe in AP classes which are advanced placement for college credit.
Everything we learn about the Civil Rights movement is shown in black and white and taught as if it solved the problem. We definitely aren’t taught that some of the legal reforms put forth in response the the nationwide riots after MLK’s assassination.
IRC is so rad. I learned to touch type by hanging out in IRC channels in the dark on a stolen shell account in 93. I felt like a hacker, really I was a goofball talking about rollerblading on a shell account that no one cared about because they got it for free with their SLIP account.
Even that Atlantic ocean couldn’t stop Jim Crow. Fascinating story, hope it can still be taught in history classes in the coming years.
Numbers matter because activity is directly proportional to user count. A lot of mainstream users won’t join a platform until it already has a critical mass. They don’t want to be early adopters or trail blazers. They want to go where their friends and good conversations are.
We’ve got to set the table for them. With a lot of users there will be more buzz and more social gravity to pull people here. We’re the first drunk uncle on the dance floor at the wedding that gets the party started. A dance floor with a few drunk uncles is fun for the uncles but until a couple nieces and a grandma join in then there’s not a party.
People have been burned by so many hot new social networks that they’re wary. They don’t believe that they can have a good network that’s not full of ads and selling their info.
But the time is now, the DJ has put on Montel Jordan’s “This is How We Do It” and it’s up to us, the drunk uncles of the fediverse, to get everyone onto the dance floor.
This looks awesome. I feel like it would be worth $40usd but I’m betting Nintendo will be asking $70usd. For 70, I’ll stick to the SNES.
edit: it’s $60usd
That’s true. The only thing leftists hate as much as conservatives and liberals is other leftists.
