thank you (boosts very appreciated)

it takes real work to show people that they're believing bullshit.

the more privilege you have the more of it you get, because you get to live in a sphere where it all looks like it's true. after all, everyone you know is doing alright, so how bad can it be out there?

i would wager most people here have at least some amount of this.

RT @TashaRobinson@twitter.com:

This is devastating. To anyone who thought John Lasseter's problem was a few unwanted hugs, or that Brenda Chapman was pushed off BRAVE for being troublesome, this full report on Pixar's grotesque sexist culture is an eye-opener and a dream-killer.

Software only becomes 'enterprise grade' if, when its behavior is described to an outsider flatly and precisely, the outsider assumes the description is some kind of elaborate joke.

RT @Alison_Kinney@twitter.com WASP ladies: in order to get suffrage, your grandmas derailed trains. They burnt down dozens of buildings. They planted bombs. They smashed the windows of banks and businesses. They RIOTED, for your tone-policing asses.
Don't talk about civility when everybody else needs rights.

@uuim great question. It's almost like "law enforcement" in this country is utterly and demonstrably unaccountable for the most blatant and egregious of crimes and they fucking know it.

2015, a thousand people killed by police (more ppl in first 25 days of yr, than ppl killed by police in the UK and Wales in the past 25 years). 0 convictions. Zero.

So Elon Musk is refusing to pay an artist for art he used in Tesla marketing materials, claiming he 'promoted' his work by using it.

I am the furthermost thing from an advocate of copyright, but what I find amazing in these cases is that professed capitalists like Elon, who claim that is the best, most fair model to run a society, (because it rewards people who work hard and create value), then refuse to compensate people for their hard work and the value that they clearly provided.

This is what cops do with badges when they're beating on unarmed Black / African / Native / Latinx / houseless / leftist folks.

This is a such an abhorent and authoritarian tactic.

film the cops. it makes them nervous.

there are a couple feds on scene that didn't cover their faces (many did) but are still shying away from cameras. bowing their heads. averting their eyes. fidgeting nervously. ashamed.

take responsibility for your compliance, pigs. there is no Just Following Orders. we must all take responsibility for the machinery we enable, no matter how cruel or vicious or overwhelming.

Today I just haven't been motivated. I was chalking it up to being up late doing laundry.

However, I've been taking an extra L-Tyrosine supplement every morning except today. (L-Tyrosine gets converted to dopamine in the body).

I guess if I was wondering how helpful that extra supplement has been, that's an indication for "very". (Yes, I know correlation is not causation).

@kurtm you're going to want to take that. it's the basis of norepinephrine synthesis, too, and you're currently burning through that like old photographs

Yeah, that's still a terrifying violation of our privacy.

This is evil.
