@Strandjunker@mstdn.social balancing a budget is easy when you rob Peter to pay Paul and hard when you try to actually balance a budget

@csalzman this will be great for applications other than crops
people flock to big JDs because they offer real value for money in terms of boosting yield via really precise working of the field

SCOTUS ruled (5-4 lmao) that you have no right to sue over intentional non-delivery of mail.
So if the Postmaster General ratfucks ballot delivery or collection from Dem rich neighborhoods, you are shit outta luck.
Bost v Illinois ruled that candidates have standing to sue over ballots postmarked by election day.
Watson v RNC is undecided on if ED-postmarked but late-arriving ballots are countable.
The last SCOTUS ruling on this was 4-4, so delaying ballot collection/delivery could work.

I am begging you all to read this article
This is the craziest shit I have ever read in my life
The Pentagon invoked the Avignon Papacy to pressure the Catholic church over their anti-war stance
Folks, we are so far out of our depths, the fish have glowing lights on their foreheads.
Btw, 3 more years of this.

It feels like the politically engaged people in America and indeed around the world are glued to the white house newsfeed right now.
This is a terrible lesson that Trump is learning right now.
I'm a pretty big alarmist but I'm not worried about CONUS getting hit
I'm terribly worried about the long term impact to the world - energy, economy, food - but not to my personal safety

Jesus Christ, no wonder young men are turning to the far right when this nihilistic determinism discourse pervades liberal discourse.
This is the NL version of Thunderf00t (remember him?) ranting about Anita Sarkeesian applying the most basic feminist critiques to Mario

@kemotep don't take financial advice from me, I am a meat popsicle
(I am 98% sure oil is going to pop over the next month and stocks will tank hard, but I'm 2% sure that we are in for such a feast of TACO bell that oil will tank and equities will moon)
watching the main sub have a collective meltdown over the mildest critique of the desert of the free market is the funniest shit I've seen in a while
it's also a great reminder that the main sub is a bunch of useless twats who are thoroughly unserious 20 year olds cosplaying as the learned elite
hedging your equities by taking a bullish position on oil is such a smart move that shorting oil may actually be the smarter play

@axbom Politicians seem to understand it just fine, which is why AI has generally faced increasing regulatory burden.
It's just that one government that jives with "Some of you may die, which is a sacrifice I am willing to make."

@iwein@mas.to since I have a reply-blocker (objectively worse than ICE agents) I'll also say for the crowd that you can't build "community" on Instagram or TikTok
nobody is banning chat apps, they're banning predatory platforms designed to rewire your brain towards mindless consumption of outrage-bait
consumption of that content is objectively harmful in any quantity
sorry you hate science I guess, damn, what a crazy way to live

@iwein@mas.to alcohol is a great point to bring up, because the only reason it is tolerated as a society despite the massive, quantifiable harms is "muh culture"
fuck social media, kids can go outside, blocking them from vertical scrolling videos is not "abuse"

@iwein@mas.to @Tattooed_Mummy@beige.party it's an amazingly arrogant position to hold that you think you can beat with sheer willpower alone entire teams of elite cognitive and behavioral scientists who have built the perfect skinner box
even steve fucking jobs said he'd never let his kids use apple products, they are inherently addictive

@iwein@mas.to @Tattooed_Mummy@beige.party there's several years of good research now that shows a causative link between social media and mental illness
