  • I’d be all for a “Department of Science and Technology” which would be about safeguarding citizen’s rights in the digital era, ensuring ethical tech practices, helps businesses and the government stay up to date with NIST standards, and making a national transistor backup in case we have a solar wind/flair hit us like the 1800s one that set electrical grids on fire.

    It was one of the few things from Andrew Yang’s “run” for the Democratic Nomination that I was interested in and wondering if someone would pick up on it. (Now I know he’s a fucking centrist nobody)










  • My mom wasn’t a alt-right wingnut, thankfully. But she kept me homeschooled despite me asking for regular schooling because she wanted the enabling of abuse. A child who could tell a teacher what she was saying to me was a threat to her. I didn’t go to any schooling beyond some 1st grade, and then she forced me into college when she grew tired of abusing me, until I ran out of support venues and she dragged me back to home.

    One homework thing my thought was to just read comic panels from Sunday newspapers archived online. That’s it. I was given old “general knowledge” books but never anything in depth of any study. I had to learn fields from parsing google and Wikipedia, even if she allowed the use of a computer.

    I’m sure there’s some legitimate use cases for homeschooling, especially for children who are immune compromised. But I’ve never heard of a happy story of homeschooling, lord knows I’m not one of them. I was held back socially and education wise from my peers, even with my skills.

    At the very very least, there should be a way for the state to enforce regular homeschooling standards. Track what grade the kids should be on, how they are doing, and then also economic aid for those who do.

    But my personal experience with homeschooling is that it’s never for the betterment of the child, it’s always to enable abuse and submission of the child to the parent. Because new ideas are scary to the parent, and new ideas allow new ways of thinking that the parent didn’t want the child to do.

    I’m biased as hell, but when you’re trapped with someone who beats you for a learning disability that would have been accommodated for in a public school that you as a 14 year old asked for, it leaves an impression on you.




  • Ah, liberal harm reduction. “Biden can’t change this, its all up to congress. BTW Biden had to personally close the border without congress.”

    Jesus Christ, just keeps shooting the chance of not having Trump in the foot, and Trump’s brain melts down on Fox News. Our options are a brain that’s able to work but chooses not to, and a puddle of gray matter with orange spray paint.

    Democracy!



  • It’s a neat idea, and the name is so good. I even saw on an .onion site that had it told in plain text, and the visuals were ASCII recreations.

    There is a (conspiracy) theory that the writer was actually working for a government since a lot of the instructions don’t work, or would potentially kill the person making it. Thus anyone who tried to follow it would not get results or die from making a project at home.

    Seeing as it was published in 1971, and the FBI’s COINTELPRO ended that year, it’s not impossible. They hated anarchists and anyone too “un-american”.

    That said, zero proof. Hence the conspiracy in conspiracy theory.
