Good morning. Global politics is dominated by a greed-crazy death cult and there's no way to stop them in time to save the planet. Have an excellent Thursday!

The front page of the NYT right now looks like one of those pre-election parodies about what a Trump administration would be like. pic.twitter.com/hyKwjvKROt

If Barack Obama looked to the sky and said ‘I’m the chosen one’, even as a joke(which this wasn’t), everyone at Fox News would look like they just peeked inside the Ark of the Covenant. https://t.co/bfxkxWkL44

It's actually pretty cool and healthy that we're having broader conversations in the SF/F genre about the fact that some of our foundational commercial texts are creepy-- not merely "of their time," but downright authoritarian and eliminationist.

Miles is animated at a rate of 12fps while the rest of the movie is 24fps. This provides a clunkier Miles as he works to find out who he is. As Miles continues through the movie, his animation slowly matches up with Peter B. Parker as he is settling into his new role. Masterpiece https://t.co/6U4SzCrU2p

*Challenge people who won't debate you so you win
*subtly dehumanise them so when they react you can say they're being hostile
*tell them what they believe, lie
*talk really fast without saying anything
*make up statistics but demand peer review sources
Picard management tip: Humility without confidence is sheepishness. Confidence without humility is arrogance.

Paying your dues = doing the work to learn your craft. Taking the time to gain the knowledge and experience you need.

Paying your dues =/= suffering various indignities just because those who came before you did. Or putting up with disrespect, harassment, or abuse.
Americans will always find it easier to accept elaborate conspiracy theories than accept than the way the system treats people is freakishly reckless and inhuman.

This takedown of the myth that US gun violence is connected to video games is probably the most exquisite I’ve read. Those quotes! @kevinmdraper https://t.co/i8O77UbLqz pic.twitter.com/3vQuJXsQPK

Those who purport to be an expert at all things are only an expert at embellishing.

But actual academic research shows that mental health symptoms (depression, anxiety, PTSD etc) are NOT strongly related to gun violence (Lu & Temple, 2019). https://t.co/4v9o3pSN6W

It’s all very well using WW2 analogies to say we will get through Brexit, ‘spirit of the blitz’ and all that, but can you imagine how shit the atmosphere would have been in the air raid shelters if you looked around and realised that about half the people had voted for the bombs?
