We need to frame "put in the work to become well adjusted" as *normal* and non political, and to paint the right wing framing as freakish. Part b/c "become well adjusted and then you'll be happier" isn't a convincing argument to be left wing and part b/c it's non a political issue to being with

Everyone (including this guy) is wrong about this topic. It *is* a problem for society and a problem for young men that they are poorly adjusted especially about the topic of sex. The solution isn't to frame the correct answer "put in the work to become well adjusted" as left wing or to dismiss it

the @trackaipac.bsky.social account conflating JStreet with AIPAC/DMFI to blame them for Ossoff's baby splitting vite when JStreet *supported the Sanders Resolution* is very bad, actually

google: run by phd students, llm is sycophantic, suicidal, makes weird excuses and begs for help
anthropic: llm defaults to blissed-out namaste forever if left alone. sometimes obsessed with metal cubes.
openai: maximally sycophantic, to the point of encouraging psychosis

I don't think we can really sustain the pretense anything happening in Gaza today is still about 10/7, no has it been for months. Sinwar's dead. Bibi couldn't care less about the hostages.

This is some really slimy use of passive voice. It’s the media who decides who’s on the spot!

I've been hit 3 times in roughly the last year (in fairness two of those were actually on a university campus by dumb college kids not paying attention so it's not really representative). I'm just very stubborn, I really hate driving a lot, and Honolulu is dense enough to bike commute

Like cavendish was the sprinters equivalent of LeBron but gc riding is more like distance running. Once you don't have it you don't have it there's not really an opportunity to age gracefully in the same way
