    they&#39;re showing the matrix movies on broadcast television locally and I&#39;ve been watching tonight while I fold laundry and I&#39;ve got to say, it&#39;s remarkable to me that the effective altruism/AI/tech bullshit crowd watched these films and decided, you know what we want you know what&#39;s the best move it&#39;s to get in early on the evil slaver robots side of things

    I would really like people to stop believing that a person&amp;#39;s political affiliations have any meaningful relationship to whether they&amp;#39;re a violent misogynist or that people who devote their lives to gaining power over others are not committed to that project in every area of their lives

    so last week outside the deli a middle-aged lady said to me, hey! I saw your voting by mail bumper sticker and I like it! and I said oh, good! and she said, I am running for county clerk and I support voting by mail, and my opponent does not I told her the story behind the stickers and we commiserated about how we both think voter turnout and a fair contest is really important even if that means one loses sometimes I&amp;#39;m going to host one of her yard signs and send her a check

    never doubt that people can grow on the phone with my formerly Libertarian brother yesterday, he told me a story about going to small claims court with one of his wife&amp;#39;s post-docs, a Pakistani woman, to make sure she was treated fairly there and described it as &amp;quot;using my white male privilege for good&amp;quot; something he would neither have done nor articulated 20 years ago
