in the Democratic Party, they are negotiating the coalition **before** the vote and then telling everyone "tough shit, this is the coalition and this is the platform, it's us or nothing."

i saw something similar when i lived in Costa Rica: a certain number of visitors to a place can be good, but more than that actually changes the place people are visiting, making it hard for locals to live there and also making it less attractive to visit. you end up damaging the underlying asset, which is the social fabric/culture/environment.

i distinctly remember when this happened, everyone was like "either they have some fancy financial trick up their sleeve or this is the dumbest deal in history" and i mean.

jeez, and that blog post itself is a transcription from some anonymous account yanked from twitter, which has since been deleted. talk about exemplifying the problem you are describing.

scary story about a bunch of writers replaced by AI, but let’s be clear, these people were probably writing SEO spam, right? I mean, you’re already writing for machines at that point anyway, might as well go all the way and make the writers machines too. https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20240612-the-people-making-ai-sound-more-human

something i've said for a long time is that American politicians think of cities in extractive or colonial terms: they exist as spaces for work and leisure that you **go to**, not spaces that you **live in**
every day, a city is occupied by people from the suburbs who use the resources, and cities should be grateful for this and arrange themselves to serve the needs of their colonial "masters."

the sad part is, children **are** abused with impunity in western countries, but not by immigrants or celebrities. they are abused by people protected by wealthy and powerful institutions: cops, priests, executives, youth pastors, coaches. basically, **exactly** the kind of people who demand we trust a top-down power structure. every accusation is a confession.

anytime someone tries to justify some harsh public policy on the grounds that children must be protected, you should be skeptical.

a looooong time ago, like, pre-QAnon, my (conservative) parents brought up "human trafficking" in some conversation as a pressing social concern and i was like "hm, that's probably bullshit" and my wife was shocked at how swiftly i dismissed it, but yup, that was just the start of the fascist "save the children" push that gave us QAnon, Tim Ballard, white ladies calling the police in airports, and then the broader bathroom bill/anti-trans freakout.

you can always tell someone is getting their talking points from fascists by how many moves it takes for them to get to pedophilia. in this case, it was two.

i don't recall anything like this number of very public resignations over previous conflicts in which the US has been involved. maybe we should listen to these people. https://wapo.st/3JY4Cmy

watching all these fucking fascist cops pull out their toys and the tactics they perfected during the BLM protests because the Democrats did fuck-all about them.
