@davemark last I saw, this train doesn’t come in to Los Angeles city, it ends on the outskirts. It’s a 45 minute flight from Burbank. I think this is a solution without a big problem.

Very excited to announce that Hako is out on the App Store!

Hako is a dead-simple app that makes it really easy to see your best credit cards for every spending category. There are similar apps out there, but they were all too complicated for me.

Would love for you to check it out, let me know what you think, and leave a review if you like it!

Would also greatly appreciate boosts! 🚀

Merrick Garland has bungled the January 6 insurrection case against Trump so badly that Trump’s likely not to face trial before the election, which, if he wins, will render everything moot and put the very idea of American democracy at the gravest risk it's ever faced.

But he's got the green bubbles thing covered.

Musk’s 72-hour posting spree on X, in which he raged against the “woke mind virus” and said its “goal” is “the destruction of America,” agreed with “Fake News is the Enemy of the People,” said the press is “basically the Biden cheering squad,” accused the news media of “lying” about Donald Trump’s “blood bath” comments, called NPR a “nice version of Pravda,” Google “manipulate[s] their search results with left wing bias,” and that if there is not a “red wave” in November, “America is doomed.”

Eternal reminder: misogyny is not incidental to Nazism and fascism. It is a core component of these ideologies.

That's especially true for the contemporary online far right, which is why MRA and incel culture is such a fertile recruitment ground for capital-N Nazis.

Misogynistic manosphere influencers embrace Nazism

Right-wing “manosphere” influencers including Sneako, Jon Zherka, and Myron Gaines are embracing Nazism and defending Adolf Hitler online. These influencers — who have large followings across multiple platforms — have histories of making antisemitic comments and pushing conspiracy theories about Jewish people, but their pro-Hitler and Nazism commentary marks an escalation. Over the past year, these three figures have praised and defended Hitler, done the Nazi Seig Heil salute while streaming, and refused to disavow Nazism. These influencers are part of the manosphere, an online community of right-wing websites, bloggers, and personalities cultivating a worldview based on conservative and regressive gender politics repackaged for the internet age. While purporting to provide dating, financial, and lifestyle advice to men, some manosphere figures are aligning themselves with far-right personalities. Their online presence can serve as a gateway to push audiences further to the right toward more dangerous ideologies, as they often use other topics that interest young men — like weightlifting, video games, and boxing — to draw viewers in before diving into extremist content and misogyny. Figures in this group often push extremism and antisemitism while blaming women for myriad societal woes and treating them as an inferior sex. Rhetoric from these influencers can sometimes be overtly cruel and promote hitting, degrading, and shaming women.

I see more and more often that people post bit.ly links here. Please don't. First and foremost — it hides the real URL, so I don't know where I am sent to. Second: you force me to use a service that collects, aggregates and shares data on who clicks what when, which I consider very bad practice. Finally, no matter how long your URL is, it only counts as 23 characters in your post, so no need to "shorten" links [1]

TL;DR post real links and don't spy on me. #kthxbai

If the Twitter/X thing teaches you one thing, let it be this: Twitter was a neoliberal place. Then Elon Musk made it into X, a fascist place. Once again, neoliberalism laid the foundations of fascism. But that’s not the (whole) lesson… Neoliberal folks are still using X, calling it Twitter to make themselves feel better, and pining for the good old days. And there’s the real lesson: When neoliberalism turns into fascism, neoliberals will adapt to life under fascism. Right, class dismissed.
