Honestly, if Sleepy Donald got a bee in his bonnet about all the capital flowing out of the country and put in restrictions that AI Data Centres could only use US-manufactured memory modules and GPUs, that would certainly unfuck a lot of things for the rest of us. Ain't gonna happen, though.
And a big "well done" to all of you who explained a joke back to the writer on Bluesky today. You did great! You're so clever, this Bluesky Mommy is soooo proud of you, you lil trooper.
"We noticed that ads aren't being displayed." That's because I've noticed the kinds of ads that you *do* display, and I would rather block your whole site permanently than be exposed to them even one more time. This is a compromise position. Get better advertisers, and we'll talk.
For the past five months the only refugees the USA has accepted are white South Africans fleeing equality & safety meanwhile they are disappearing or strapping ankle monitors on any Haitian they can get ahold of. It needs to be understood how thoroughly connected these two things are.

Ah I remember this one; used to be one of my go-to examples of the dangers of “doing your own research”: A bunch of dimwits with bad reading comprehension stumbled on a protocol for containing disease *in refugee camps* and fantasized a nationwide coercive quarantine campaign.

To be very clear, extrajudiciously killing people you suspect are drug traffickers is *also* murder
CNN@cnn.com · 2d agoThe US military’s strikes on alleged drug boats have likely illegally killed “individuals who are not involved in narcotrafficking,” Sen. Tim Kaine told the White House, following “a careful review” of classified information he has seen so far.
"EA Positioned to Accelerate Creativity and Innovation to Shape the Future of Entertainment" This is — simultaneously — one of the least surprising sentences to find in the release, while at the same time being so *utterly cringe* that it is hard to imagine a person actually arranging those words.

NEW: Todd Blanche doesn't believe in the rule of law, and John Cornyn and Thom Tillis don't care. Blanche's Sunday night moves should not save his nomination. The reaction from the pair of soon-departing Republican senators is not oversight and not principled. Tonight, at Law Dork:

Absolutely unbelievable how solar power has taken off worldwide during the Hormuz oil crisis. You don't have to hand it to him, but Trump may have done more to finally kick off a global civilization of effete librul solar users than anyone else in the West
