Can't steal what's already stolen.

Ironically, would that be a Happy Meal?

Trump and MAGA politics

Maybe the language we use to describe them is itself normalising and pacifying. Like calling a Nazi salute a "hand gesture."

I would suggest "a criminal dictator and fascist politics" as a substitute in your sentence to provoke an acceptable, proportionate reaction.

Maybe the polling companies have realised that in the post-truth world, narrative is where the money's at? If it works for Mainstreet and the Conservatives, who cares anymore? Find a base to play to, tell em what they want to hear, make that money.

If someone doesn't even start a position, can we still measure their tenure in Mooches?

I support this party. And I will buy the hat. Can it be blue with yellow lettering?

Which is why the people that benefit from the current situation are huge proponents of supply, of course. Just like reducing your personal carbon footprint and pulling yourself up with your bootstraps. Suggest an unrealistic solution, real culprits get a complete pass.

Guess you shoulda done something about that Joe. Like say, when you were president?

Damn right, it's better than yours

I can teach you, but I'll have to charge

 

It's almost like raising prices without improving the service causes people to cancel 🤔

I get a small box saying "Print pretty" from the comment link in Connect, gif wont load in the comment itself.

When I open the link externally in Firefox I get:

Is anyone else experiencing this? Or am I doing something wrong? Thank you!

Lots of reasons to be looking at the framework Canada just published for consumer-driven (open) banking, but I thought this was a gem:

from "2.10 A Single Technical Standard"

...The Framework will significantly decrease the risks of personal data being compromised by bad actors and mitigate security, privacy, and liability risks for consumers and participants. This is achieved through the use of APIs, a type of software that acts as secure data “pipes” to enable different products and services to communicate in a consistent manner.

If an API is a pipe, is the Internet a series of tubes?

Technological development can destroy our sense of ourselves as rational, coherent subjects, leading to widespread suffering and destruction. But tools can also provide us with a new sense of what it means to be human, leading to new modes of expression and cultural practices.

Technology, for better or worse, affects every aspect of our lives. Our very sense of who we are is shaped and reshaped by the tools we have at our disposal.

The problem, for Stiegler, is that when we pay too much attention to our tools, rather than how they are developed and deployed, we fail to understand our reality. We become trapped, merely describing the technological world on its own terms and making it even harder to untangle the effects of digital technologies and our everyday experiences.

By encouraging us to pay closer attention to this world-making capacity, with its potential to harm and heal, Stiegler is showing us what else is possible.
