due to a clerical error in an 1852 probation hearing it is not possible for a Youngquist to die

I saw a video from a recovering alcoholic. He talked about how he used to buy rounds of drinks all the time. It wasn't generosity. He was trying to get everyone else hammered so he wouldn't feel so guilty and awkward about being sloshed himself. I feel like similar happens with some AI pushers.

Anthropic claiming their model went rogue days after OpenAI made their claim (itself days after an abysmal report on their ad revenue pilot) is strongly reminiscent of kids playing make-believe superheroes and one-upping each others’ claimed superpowers like nuh uh mine does infinity times infinity

Something I think about a lot is how western liberals were writing screeds on the inherently slavish Russian mind when Russian civilians didn't stop the war their government launched and then when it was their turn far, far fewer of them ended up imprisoned for opposing the war than did Russians

US Central Command (CENTCOM) has prepared a large-scale operation in the form of a decisive two-week bombing campaign should Trump choose escalation to break the deadlock in the Middle East, two sources confirmed.-NYP

love a 19th century caliber Drunk Baseball Injury. "Frequent tavern partisan "Ol' Sour Oats" Bader ran afoul of the constabulary when he teetered out of a Low Establishment, commandeered a Penny-Farthing and drove it directly into the fire-wagon, which ran over his foot. The amputation is scheduled

So, Harrison Bader having a “scooter accident” with an already injured foot easily met the clown threshold, the details make it a five ring circus.

thulsa doom: contemplate this on the tree of woe me (providing colour commentary): that's easily one of the worst trees to contemplate things on. let's see how he handles this

idle thought. kind of surprising there hasn't been a Qanon 2.0 this time around. this was around the point in Trump 1 all that shit started to ramp up. the closest thing there is are the lib election deniers, and thankfully the Epstein saga took all the wind out of that particular theory's sails.

related point: the KHive clowns (and other assorted democrat stans) on here are significantly to the right of actual Harris voters, a fact worth keeping in mind the next time you see them do their usual "uhhh, you are NOT THE BASE!" scolding

New poll: Americans believe the U.S. should arrest Benjamin Netanyahu by a +22 margin Total: 49-27 Black: 53-13 Hispanic: 52-15 Ages 18-29: 58-17 Harris voters: 74-10 Independents: 55-20 23% of Trump voters agree as well Economist/YouGov:

there is a reason Diamond and Silk made EXTREMELY good money off the greater MAGAworld project: there is a broad swath of the conservative ecosystem that needs to reassure itself "yes sure I'm on the same side as unspeakable monstrosity, but I'm one of the good ones."

The fetishistic way these people talk about Black Democrats really reminds me of a lot of Zionist philosemetism, where your identity is praised and uplifted, but only as long as you play the geopolitical role assigned to you.
