sexism in medicine kills people. racism in medicine kills people. fatphobia in medicine kills people. queerphobia in medicine kills people. classism in medicine kills people. ableism in medicine kills people.

I’m at In-N-Out waiting for a friend. ‘Drawing dinosaurs as usual, headphones on. Two construction workers walk by and one says, “bro that’s good.” Headphones come off, “thanks.” “No really bro, that’s really good .” He taps my sketchbook. This is, now, IN-N-Outosaurus, liked by that one construction worker in Mountain View.

“Because the truth is, tech doesn’t have an image problem. It doesn’t have a message problem. It has an intention problem. What’s wrong with the axe murderer who broke into my house is not that he hasn’t successfully persuaded me to buy into his narrative. What’s wrong is that he’s trying to kill me with an axe. Similarly, when you launch a product that’s designed to put millions of people out of work, block access to sources of verifiable truth, replace human creativity with slop, and lower the barriers to every sort of atrocity, the problem isn’t that you haven’t told the public a good story about those things. The problem is that you are trying to do them.”

every major structural social problem right now is basically "we don't have enough skilled workers on the ground" and the reason is always "well we've been intentionally underpaying and understaffng them for decades to increase corporate profits" and somehow the news always just mentions the "shortage" without digging into the cause

The destruction of public and higher education and the degradation and subjugation of workers has been an active part of conservative policy for more than fifty years.

Listen that doesn’t even account for all the weird shit local farmers are getting up to.
