They rest in the boxes they came in.

Still, it’s a niche amusement park. Not really the purview of the government.

Short of the grant part, isn’t that basically what the ADA does?

I get what you’re saying, but it’s an amusement park. It’s a nice thing, but it’s not exactly the first thing I’d spend tax income on.

Broken clock

Blasted is nothing, wake me up when they get slammed.

Right now it looks more like that’ll be a Musk project.

I dropped this /s

It’s called a dialectic.

He actually came to the US on asylum from M-13, who were threatening him and his family. El Salvador is the one country on Earth he can’t legally be sent to.

It’s easy to say the right thing on this because he knows he’ll never have to pay a dime more than he does right now.

And it’s easy to make sweeping statements based purely on hypotheticals and your own assumptions. In our reality, he’s one of the biggest advocates for raising his own taxes.

Titan can have a little life, as a treat

Mixture of experts is the future of AI. Breakthroughs won’t come from bigger models, it’ll come from better coordinated conversations between models.

According to who? Because I was here, and that’s exactly what happened. Pretending a bad plan had merit doesn’t make it so. You are allowed to be done with the Democratic party, but that won’t make anything better. Just look around you.

Declaring your refusal to vote certainly is not hard work, and unsurprisingly it wasn’t even remotely effective. It was literally based on not voting, not actively doing anything, and it paved the way for policy to get exponentially worse, so to be honest it was objectively worse than “literally nothing”.

You don’t get credit for trying when everyone pointed out to you repeatedly that what you were trying wasn’t going to work, and was in fact going to make things worse.

As do I, but that has nothing to do with anyone doing hard, necessary work. I’d call the Uncommitted movement about the farthest thing possible from hard work to give good options a foothold. It was people doing literally nothing and pretending that would somehow improve anything.

If the “practical left” is just voting for the less-bad, while shitting on and shunning the people trying to do the hard work because the magical Fairy of Good hasn’t yet shown up to establish that foothold with a wave of the wand

No one is doing that.

Which is why the practical arm of the left promotes the Dems. Not because they are enough, or even good, but because of the two options they are the less overtly fascist. We don’t vote blue because it’s sufficient, we do it because it’s necessary to slow the descent enough for sufficient methods to take hold. Neo liberal democracy is a farce, but it’s a farce with a bad outcome and a catastrophic outcome.

We vote for bad to stave off catastrophe, so good can actually establish a foothold. Didn’t pay off this time unfortunately, now good has to be fantastic to even slide a toe in the door, and it’s a steep uphill battle at that. You’re right, fascism is definitely more prominent in the MAGA right, our job is harder than it had to be, but so it goes.

Silver lining, I guess we can lean into accelerationism now. Not my first choice, for the sake of those less financially stable than myself, but not really much option now. Send it, sure, might as well at this point. I would’ve preferred building a viable labor movement under the “stationary” part of the ratchet cycle, but we’re here now. If we’re playing the hand we’re dealt, sure, accelerationism.

Violence is only the answer after all other options are exhausted.

Precisely

Probably because the US is now the aggressor?
