(aka BadKen@GWJ) I was once a software guru. Now I spend my days trying to figure out what's true, and my nights trying not to obsess. He/him/his
swachter@irenes A story goes around on Tumblr, I think, of a person who wanted to get a library card and walked up to the desk. Didn't have a piece of mail on them, so the librarian hands them a blank postcard and tells them to write their address on it. They do, hand it back to them, and the librarian says, "oh look, mail with your address on it!" and proceeds to get them a library card.

GG“🇨🇦🍁Conservatives are consciously adopting the technique used by fascists for generations. In Steve Bannon’s phrase, ‘flood the zone’ with negativity and wild allegations, day after day, week after week, year after year.
The aim is to exhaust good people and induce them to give up on politics altogether, to retreat into their private lives, to stop knocking on doors, to stay home instead of getting out to vote.”

Jason KoeblerNew: I obtained hundreds of internal documents that show how universities have bent over backwards to accommodate Starship food delivery robots which sometimes have trouble crossing the street:
The robots necessitated:
- Publicity photos with students who "should have a healthy-looking BMI"
- Police supposed to let Starship "lead" incident investigations
- Trying to form "habits" with a "captured" base of student populations
- Redesigning intersections
