in my mind chilchuk is bisexual but ONLY in the "dad who casually drops that he had an intimate love affair with his best friend in his youth and does not elaborate" way

White women keep going to palestinian protest camps and crying on camera about how threatened and scared they are

This is white supremacy. Saving the jeopardized white woman makes all violence committed against non-white people, heroic

Protesters have been so smart and patient with non-engagement. The women will still find something to cry about because their aim is to present themselves as a victim to trigger violence against protesters

Hey you know that really disturbing thing where you yawn and your salivary gland shoots a concentrated spray of saliva out of one of its horrid nozzles like you’re a venom spitting snake for some godawful reason

Anyway I think it's crazy that for thousands of years people just had this deep yearning to draw weird diagrams and contemplate crytpic hidden truths and for 99% of that time it was 100% nonsense and then in the last hundred years we invented quantum mechanics and category theory and oh shit it turns out there are cryptic truths in weird diagrams. just had to draw the right ones.

Me: Exercise does not cause weight loss. This is a fact that has been demonstrated so robustly in research that even doctors, who hate and fear evidence, are grudgingly starting to admit this.

Someone reading that post: Cool, but have you considered that exercise leads to weight loss?

Me: I am going to eat you

I feel like a good shorthand for a lot of economics arguments is "if you want people to work minimum wage jobs in your city, you need to allow minimum wage apartments for them to live in."

"These jobs are just for teenagers on the weekends." Okay, so you'll use minimum wage services only on the weekends and after school. No McDonald's or Starbucks on your lunch break.

"They can get a roommate." For a one bedroom? A roommate for a one bedroom? Or a studio? Do you have a roommate to get a middle-wage apartment for your middle-wage job? No? Why should they?

"They can live farther from city center and just commute." Are there ways for them to commute that don't equate to that rent? Living in an outer borough might work in NYC, where public transport is a flat rate, but a city in Texas requires a car. Does the money saved in rent equal the money spent on the car loan, the insurance, the gas? Remember, if you want people to take the bus or a bike, the bus needs to be reliable and the bike lanes survivable.

If you want minimum wage workers to be around for you to rely on, then those minimum wage workers need a place to stay.

You either raise the minimum wage, or you drop the rent. There's only so long you can keep rents high and wages low before your workforce leaves for cheaper pastures.

"Nobody wants to work anymore" doesn't hold water if the reason nobody applies is because the commute is impossible at the wage you provide.
