    Got tired of reading the news and getting mad. Feeding America backs 200+ food banks around the country and I've seeded with $500 for now. I'll match up to another $500 myself.

    Pass the hat, RTs graciously appreciated, etc.

    The thing that is hard to communicate is that that specific flavor of “brainrotted 4chan slug with incoherent beliefs” is also downstream of the right wing politics factories dumping glowing nuclear sludge into the river

    there’s a reason nihilism has risen and it wears Rush Limbaugh’s face

    a critical difference between woke 1 and woke 2 is the understanding that woo is something to be fought tooth and nail

    I just had a kid and I asked the nurse prepping the vitamin K shot (who had been so nice the entire time) what the shot was out of curiosity and her demeanor just dropped while she explained it. Immediately perked back up when I said to give it to him. It’s obvious she’s had this fight a lot.

    people are being weird about this. as the Guardian article (which is actually good) says, the guy put himself through community college and has been a local councilman for five terms and is a union organizer

    that's Normal. you want that shape of guy, which isn't the same shape as oyster guy at all!

    An iron worker takes on one of Trump’s most loyal followers in Congress
    Brian Poindexter, a five-term local councilman and apprentice instructor at Ironworkers Local 17, is seeking the Democratic nomination for an Ohio House seat
    Jared Yates Sexton @jysexton.bsky.social
    I'm going to become the Joker
    The Atlantic: Brian Poindexter had just finished wolfing down a Reuben sandwich in a deli outside Cleveland when he delivered a message that, coming from a Democratic House candidate in the year 2026, sounded almost provocative. “There’s nothing wrong with being masculine,” Poindexter told me. It’s okay, he said, to be “a manly man.” Poindexter’s own manliness credentials are fully in order. The 46-year-old started working in a machine shop as a teenager and spent years hauling furniture across the country before finding stability as a union ironworker. He drives a Ram Big Horn pickup truck and built, with his buddy turned campaign manager, a shed in his backyard. Now Poindexter is running for Congress, trying to flip a Republican-held seat in Ohio with a pitch aimed at a constituency that has abandoned the Democratic Party over the past two decades: men.

    the body language from the feds is embarrassing. they know they’re cooked and the people standing up to them do not fear them.

    this is going to get worse before it gets better but it is going to get better

    I try to mostly follow people on LinkedIn who are unafraid to shitpost on main

    I removed all the chairs from my house. Yes, all of them. Standing desks are for beginners. I don't sit anymore. Not at meals. Not during calls. Not ever. Why? Because sitting is a dopamine sink. Your glutes go dormant. Blood pools. Your brain gets 23% less oxygen (I measured it). Standing keeps you in a state of "productive discomfort." Discomfort = alertness. Alertness = pattern recognition. Pattern recognition = product-market fit. I eat dinner standing over the sink. I take Zooms pacing back and forth like a caged lion. My calves are basically a pre-seed round for my cardiovascular system. Studies show that 89% of Fortune 500 CEOs do their best thinking while in motion. Churchill held walking meetings. Zuckerberg did walking 1-on-1s. I haven't sat in 6 months and my sprint velocity is up 340%. Every chair you own is a commitment to mediocrity. Every cushion is a compromise with your future self. "But what about rest?" Rest is what you do after the exit. Right now, I have deals to close and a burn rate to justify. My living room? Empty. Just space to pace. My dining room? A war room with whiteboards on every wall—no table. Sitting is the new smoking. Standing is the new sitting. Pacing is the new standing. I'm not uncomfortable. I'm optimized. Don't let Big Furniture gaslight you.

    hi, I'm man ages eighteen to forty-nine, and I really just don't get it

    I'm not a stranger to gambling, though it's always been on things I can win (like Knicks opening nights, against the line, to the point where it was a running joke). But like. An active account? In a place designed to soak you?

    Dissent Magazine @dissentmag.bsky.social
    More than a quarter of American adults have a daily gambling habit, 42 percent of bettors have said they spend more than they should, and a majority of men ages eighteen to forty-nine have an active account with an online sportsbook.
    Doubling Down - Dissent Magazine
    Online sports gambling has been normalized at a breakneck pace. Is there any way to push back against a predatory culture of promo codes and prop bets?

    the scammers are now compromising accounts to get their spam in front of more eyes. but it's just scripts!!

    anyway it's good that after a year Molly has figured out that she needs to start walking back her shit. it's worth thinking about how many people's money she's funneled to crime rings in SEA

    I hate to inform people but Palestinians aren’t perfect victims and some of them may even be annoying and running scripts because they were software engineers before they lost everything in a genocide

    they're desperate, they're mad, and they know that nobody, not even their base, likes them. they know most of their behavior is prosecutable and not even argentina will take them

    three years from now, if not sooner, having a track record of standing up for what is right is going to be both politically and professionally beneficial.

    that's not why we should do it. but it's not not why we should do it, either.

    video is out there. I watched it. I do not advise watching it. the description Will has here is correct.

    I would describe "being shot five times while 2-3 people hold you down" as an execution

    congrats, ICE. you found the bridge and you sprinted across.

    Will Stancil @whstancil.bsky.social
    Initial report is that two observers got into a shoving match with eight agents, one observer was wrestled to the ground, and then an ICE agent pulled out a sidearm and shot the man on the ground five times.

    the thing that jumps out to me (I am not a crowd control knower so take it with all the salt in the world) but the feds are all freelancing. chasing guys around for throwing snowballs. half-assedly spraying protestors without rhyme or reason (and having people stay up).

    they can't even form a line.

    Joshua J. Friedman @joshuajfriedman.com
    NEW: An immigration court has terminated removal proceedings against Tufts doctoral student Rümeysa Öztürk, finding that DHS did not meet its burden of establishing that she was removable, her lawyers tell the Second Circuit. live-awp-vermont.pantheonsite.io/app/uploads/...
    Dear Ms. Wolfe, Petitioner-Appellee Rümeysa Öztürk submits this Rule 28(j) letter to advise the Court that on January 29, 2026, the immigration court held that the Department of Homeland Security had not met its burden of proving removability, and the immigration court thereby terminated removal proceedings against Ms. Öztürk.' This development underscores the dangers of the government's interpretation of the Immigration and Nationality Act. Under the government's view, it could punitively detain any noncitizen in retaliation for her speech for many months, so long as it simultaneously institutes removal proceedings—no matter how unmeritorious—all without any federal court review of the lawfulness of detention at any time. To be clear, the termination of Ms. Öztürk's removal proceedings does not moot her habeas case. (By contrast, as Ms. Öztürk has argued, this appeal is moot. Br. 18-20.) Without habeas jurisdiction and the bail order that is currently in place, any government appeal to the Board of Immigration Appeals would again subject Ms. Öztürk to re-detention. See 8 C.F.R. § 1003.6(a). For that reason, she continues to suffer the threat of continuing "now-or-never" First and Fifth Amendment harms. Br. in Opp. 55-57.

    we constantly rely on unreliable tools (some of them in meat suits and with hair) by adding compensating controls around their actions so the outputs are bounded and, while not deterministic, predictable

    in the real world, this is normal. but now *you* have to look at it, and some people hate that

    I only take issue with the final quote: “People need to manage the competing dynamics of relying on generative AI and staying mindfully vigilant.” Simply put, there is no way in which one can rely on an unreliable tool, especially when it robs us of the very ability to recognize when it's wrong.

    the phrase "war-flavored content" is going to be in a history book someday

    Cooper Lund @cooperlund.online
    Several hours later and there hasn’t been anything that has made me think that the primary goal of this was anything but to make war-flavored content to make the people it the room look “strong” and “lethal” with no real thought about what comes next.
