My stories: Abandoned drippings

  • Gen Z has the highest rate of veganism in history and it's reshaping the food industry

    Jump

  • Yay! 🥕🐇

  • Noam Chomsky

    Jump

  • Well I've heard all I need to. I knew Chomsky was kind of a prodigious jerk. He's put out some good material in his time, but it sure doesn't seem like he's personally on the right side of of the child abuse "side" of the debate.

  • Oh yeah then explain Tenet

    Jump

  • Sure it is. It's a matter of the taste of the people in the movie theatre.

  • Oh yeah then explain Tenet

    Jump

  • Nolan's movies are just vehicles for Zimmer's music.

  • Oh yeah then explain Tenet

    Jump

  • Matter of taste. For my part, I don't like watching movies with anyone who can't carry a conversation while it's happening. I love getting the live reactions and theories as the movie is still playing out.

  • Oh yeah then explain Tenet

    Jump

  • This is partner. It's like a tic. It's actually amazing to watch. It's like they become possessed by the spirit of cinema and start babbling about the most obscure trivia you've ever heard.

    Fortunately, I love it.

  • Oh yeah then explain Tenet

    Jump

  • I love that kind of stuff. Both me and my wife do it, then we theory craft. We try to guess twists before they're revealed.

    This obviously doesn't work well without subtitles.

  • Oh yeah then explain Tenet

    Jump

  • Conceptually, sure. But the last big setpiece made no sense from a visual perspective. I feel like you would need to show an overhead view of the map simultaneously, to actually keep track of what was happening.

  • Palestinians call on everyone to sign the Boycott Xbox pledge today.

    Jump

  • From the link...

    Microsoft provides the Israeli military with Azure cloud and AI services that are crucial in empowering and accelerating Israel’s genocidal war on 2.3 million Palestinians in the illegally occupied Gaza Strip.

  • the other side

    Jump

  • Thanks for this. There are no perfect solutions in this world, and you're right--it's something. Maybe I can use what influence I have in this role to set up the next generation of tech workers to do better than we did.

  • the other side

    Jump

  • The deep cut has formed into a rift. I'm almost completely burned on the notion of doing any good in this world with my tech skills. I'm applying to work at a university now, which at least is a bit more of a public service. But it still is selling the next generation on corpo tech, and credentialism.

    I'm not sure my money work can ever really be a net good.

  • What the hell is even going on at this point?

    Jump

  • Damn it's always the evil ones with the cake. Just think of the good he could have done...

  • the other side

    Jump

  • I think we all project but just lie to ourselves about it. Maybe I'm projecting though too

  • I hope so :D

    Jump

  • more questions

  • I hope so :D

    Jump

  • Though she might try to couple with your head--fruitlessly, of course.

  • Effective tax rates before and after the Trump tax law

    Jump

  • Give poor person money: they spend the money.

    Give rich person money: they use it to leverage more money out of the economy of working people.

    Wow so good at business look at all the money they're stealing.

  • ‘Unforgivable’: Trump’s ‘piggy’ insult is stoking more outrage than usual

    Jump

  • Ahh but you see they also revile fat people.

  • Zohran Mamdani reaches out to the White House to set up a meeting with Trump

    Jump

  • That would be tragic, but indications point to him being actually ideological

  • Why many men struggle to maintain deep male friendships later in life

    Jump

  • Sometimes women, you can connect with them better on an emotional level as opposed to men.

    Not just women ofc, but generally people who have been socialized to be more empathetic.

    I feel like a part of the issue is the quality of the friends out there (including pov). Sure if you get "adopted" by a cool friend or group it's easy to follow their lead, but so many of us don't actually know how to be good friends.
