In the 1940's you could drink the water out of the Columbia River and thanks to settlers building dams, now it's deadly for dogs to swim in it bc of the cyanobacteria. Pretty cool world we have going on.

They're closing 1/3rd of the public schools here in Seattle bc "no money" even though they admit this won't actually fix the budget. At the same time, they're raising the funding for the pigs by 20% after the largest, longest sustained protests in human history asking for specifically the opposite of that, and nobody is saying a peep. I fucking hate it here.

I am absolutely sick of the music scene for not being political enough, and I am equally sick of everyone I politically organize with having such shitty taste in music.

It is absurd how anti-masker conspiracy theorists have taken over society and Biden is bragging about how "he" "beat covid" when in reality "he" didn't do shit except for Trump's plan of "stop testing, start ignoring"

In the last couple years i've watched society spend an amount of money that could have meaningfully confronted climate change on "pivoting social media to video" that was based based on falsified data which no one actually wanted.
And then after that? I got to watch it all over again with this AI emperor's new clothes shit.

High speed rail does not excite me, I think we should focus on low-speed, mass transit in neighborhoods.

Honestly computers and the tech industry in general have kind of been a big swing and a miss. Whenever people try to use any of this stuff to actually change society, the ruling class puts a stop to it. You can't use technical means to solve a social problem (capitalism + kyriarchy).
-
The computers haven't been applied to do better or different work, they're just applied to make fewer office workers do the same amount of work. And thus have become not only inherently regressive, but actually anti-productive.

It feels like there are more airbnbs around me than actual neighbors, and I can't even spraypaint "AIRBNB MAKES PEOPLE HOMELESS" on the wall because there are so many fucking cameras everywhere. I hate what the world has become.

All the time these days, people comment on how I'm smart for wearing a mask and whenever I say "you could wear a mask too" they're always like "yes but people will bully me " this society literally bullied everyone into endlessly giving each other covid all of the time.

@sidereal SPD, which has gotten a 20% raise, is so apathetic to doing their job that they literally called and asked if the person who broke into my car and was doing drugs in it was authorized to be in the car, despite it being obvious he broke into it. i am so sick of the city governmentβs priorities.
