- Comment on As a US citizen who was born in the UK, how risky is it to leave and reenter the US right now? 1 day ago:
You’re ignoring the fact that these “single incidents” are essentially the administration testing what they can get away with. And there’s a lot more than just this one, if you bother to look.

The administration is currently figuring out how to “deport” natural-born citizens to an El Salvadoran Supermax prison that’s notorious for having horrendous conditions. All bets are off, regardless of citizenship. But it’s PARTICULARLY risky if you check any of the following boxes while also not being a natural-born citizen:
- not white
- not male
- not cisgender
- not straight
- not evangelical Christian
- not racist
- not a vocal supporter of the regime
There are real and concrete reasons that so many countries have started issuing travel warnings for the US to their own citizens in the last few months.

Don’t risk it. Also, try to make some contingency plans in the event they do kick you out.

You do not have sufficient funds to be rescued. Your health will now be removed. Please do not resist.
- Comment on Remember when she fucked up the economy 3 days ago:
I mean, Reagan was step 3 of how we got here. The first two steps were Nixon, and the dawn/systematic adoption of the Friedman Doctrine as the de rigueur corporate governance tactic in the US and most of the western world.

I’ve snagged a couple deals on mini-computers with CPUs that have NN-optimized tiles; I’m planning on playing around and building out some self-hosted voice assistant stuff, amongst other things.
- Comment on Remember when she fucked up the economy 3 days ago:
Yeah, the American analogue is Reagan. SO MANY people jack themselves off about being a “Reagan Republican” here, and whenever I hear someone say that, I just think “oh, ok, so you’re a racist imperialist hyper capitalist without a shred of empathy, but you don’t like to say it out loud, gotcha”

lol no it doesn’t, because the only one I’ll ever trust is the one I fully host and control myself.

Same, tbh.
- Comment on What efforts would it take to strip the name Americans from the folks inhabiting the US? 5 days ago:
Realistically? The breakup/balkanization of the US. Which is a nonzero and growing possibility by the look of things here.
- Comment on From a purely political perspective, if you oppose the US tariffs as a US resident, should you buy or avoid buying products subject to tariffs? 5 days ago:
I’m buying local as much as I can, and am avoiding buying stuff from red states as much as I can.

I mean… have you seen how good ML-generated videos are getting these days?
- Comment on How likely is it that Trump will be the first President assassinated since Kennedy? 5 days ago:
You don’t want Johnson taking over. He’d go all in for the Republic of Gilead, and that’s one of the few scenarios would be meaningfully worse than what’s happening now.
