Please watch, please share

Spring temperatures, dry ground

remember Ron DeSantis? I didn't, but then I saw an ad on DC cable where his super pac is hitting Haley on China. A campaign on life support spending its last breath to attack someone at 8 percent.

you don't come back from this

home repair flow chart:
1) it works fine, better not touch it
2) that one broke, better fix it and leave the rest alone
3) learn enough to fix it and realize all of them were done wrong in the first place
4) redoing all of them

Glancing at ron desantis' campaign finance report, wishing i paid for expedited shipping on cowboy boots i ordered for the day he drops out

Jim Jordan would enter the speakership with a level of baggage normally reserved for republicans exiting the speakership

got a nice coat

Jordan doesn't appear to have the votes, but if he somehow pulled it out, he would lack the only thing republicans want in a speaker: a bland glad-hander through which the real power behind the party party can, to gullible journalists, launder their extremism

what happened in september 2005

@jmhorner @00Aaron I just ask that you be aware that naive utilitarian prescriptive suffering minimization substitutes your own opinions about what constitutes suffering for those of all other decision making people. Like im sure eliminating reproductive freedom for the goal of minimizing the number of humans sounds great inside your head because you have weighted all the tradeoffs based on your own judgment. That doesn’t make it ok!

@jmhorner @00Aaron i understand, it's just a morally ridiculous and self-destroying argument. Humans are bad because they harm other species, which have inherent value. so the human species should go away, because they have no inherent value. I just think that both have inherent value and also that the assumption that human beings do not have inherent value is constantly used to justify genocide!

@jmhorner @00Aaron ok but I don't think the feature about genocide that makes it bad is the fact that some people are excluded from the genocide

how would things be different if SBF's one MIT liberal arts class had covered john rawls instead of peter singer

wait what

@00Aaron i'm not trying to dunk on you

@00Aaron i'm saying the quiet part out loud here, but i'm taking the piss and not being serious. as a way of gently prodding you into realizing that by suggesting the human race not continue is a call for genocide, although i suspect you likely don't intend it that way and likely wouldn't support it when framed that way.
