the word "refoulement" derives from the word "full" which denotes beating a woolen cloth to improve it by making it shrink. "refoulement" means "the beatings will continue" in a negative sense. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fulling

it looks like Liang Li (@liangli521 tiktok) imported a lot of her videos to TikTok starting Jan 15, 2026. Her profile says she loves to dance but the only dance video I find is this Jan 15 armpit fart dance. www.tiktok.com/@liangli521/...

LaTeXML in Rust LaTeXML -> HTML + MathML + SVG en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LaTeXML

The discord was lit today

LaTeXML seems to be making a lot of progress, I'mm somewhat worried that it involves AI generated code. For the complicated stuff they seem to be running LaTeX in Rust in process, rather than sending it to a separate process and waiting for that to complete or timeout. arxiv.org/abs/2605.16562

Understand: Trump is having random police departments arrest (or issue citations to) people sticking their hand in the reflecting pool to COVER UP how his corrupt contracting fucked up the reflecting pool. These arrests are a criminal cover-up of Trump's own corruption.

Omfg the most thin-skinned people ever

Breaking news: U.S. Park Police officers arrested former Olympian David Hearn on a misdemeanor charge of destruction of government property. Hearn said he touched the Reflecting Pool’s detached liner but “didn’t destroy or break or peel anything.”

The UFC is doing a very clever thing: they have given each fighter an honor guard that includes a medal of honor recipient, which means every service member must salute as the fighter walks past

Trump used the Armed Forces Full Honor Cordon — soldiers who escort fallen heroes and heads of state — to usher UFC fighters past Abraham Lincoln’s statue like they’re celebrities on a red carpet. I am LIVID.

why would limitation ever be a better option, if you lack the talent to make music or create art it doesn't mean everybody else does too

how many ps are in google? where are the ps located

Trump is terrified of a left version of the Jan 6 Capitol attack - a mob of the poors armed with pitchforks storming the White House. That is why he keeps the National Guard nearby and wants a fleet of drones on top of the ballroom and an impenetrable dome that seals the WH off from the rest of DC

there seems to have been a number of variants on the Мастеру коноплеводства (master of hemp farming) awards. The Soviets sure liked to give out medals rather than improving the lives of their subjects.
