Seems like an upset might be brewing in the GOP primary in #MI08 to take on Dem Rep. Kristen McDonald Rivet. Trump endorsed Amir Hassan, but he currently trails an absolute nobody who suspended his campaign a month ago by a wide margin.

Oh my god I think I found the video.

The fact that it is actually the case in the UK that you can't access porn without age verification and Westminster was not burnt to the ground is *baffling*. The Brits truly stand for nothing.

It seems some people say they're "leftist" because they kinda disagree with the right wingers about some minor policy details sometimes, not because they have an actual ideological issue with anything the right stands for

He had me in the first half ngl, I thought it was a post exalting the boons of immigration 😭

I admire the tenacity of Patreon in their quest to make their app less and less usable, truly cutting edge stuff. I wouldn't come up with some of those decisions with a gun to my head.

🤡🐴 Lavrov: Russia is marked by God. When things become truly difficult, help comes from above. Putin summed it up: "Things will never again be as they were before February 2022."

FOSS attracts exactly two distinct groups of people: - trans furry anarchists - outright nazis This is a phenomenon thus far unexplained by the Standard Model

They were too focused on how much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood, and they never bothered asking if a woodchuck *should* chuck wood

Okay one more odyssey post. Really loved the movie. But I for one am willing to stop rescuing Matt Damon. At some point we’re just going to have to collectively agree that if Matt Damon gets lost again we just have to let him go.

Hot takes are fucking disgusting and won't exist under democratic socialism

There was a lot of talk about future drone warfare when I was a RAND fellow 30 years ago, but degrading civilian morale by singeing an adversary's mail order dildo supply was not something that came up

Hanibalas Vytautas Lekteris 🏆 🎖️

open all borders. stop having them be closed 🇺🇦🇱🇹🇵🇸🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿@dov.bsky.social · 2w ago

Hanibalas Vytautas Lekteris was born in 1937 in the family of Count Konstantinas Lekteris and Simoneta Lekterienė, a former Slabotkė bar dancer. The Count belonged to an old Baltic German noble family with roots in Courland, but this branch of the family had settled in the Joniškis area in the 1800s

The 1mil is only the "mathematically correct" choice if you assume you can get a dozen of your friends each to hit the 1mil button and then split equally. Otherwise, saying that you should maximise EV on a single random variable with huge variance is actually mathematically illiterate.

I know the take that’s gonna do numbers is “this is rational” but no, people aren’t rational, people are terrible at numbers, this isn’t really rational, people just can’t do math. It’s actually well-known that people are irrational, don’t debase yourself pretending this is smart

Just for context, here’s the original post (since folks asked); remember, under no circumstances, do you have to hand it to Hitler. I find it ironic that the PFP for the person is him making a Vulcan salute when there was a TOS Star Trek episode *specifically* about not handing it to Hitler!!

Stop laundering your biases with this! "No one sane believes in open borders." "No one sane is anti-AI." "No one sane believes trans people should participate in sports." Shut the fuck up!

Stop calling people who have completely reasonable opinions that you disagree with insane [BLUESKY CHALLENGE LEVEL IMPOSSIBLE]

Tim Whittingham@timwhitt.bsky.social · 2w ago

Worth remembering that nobody sane actually believes in open borders and Burnham himself is not anti immigration but pro controlled immigration and not (like the right wing) anti immigrant or playing the dangerous and immoral game of 'blame-the-foreigner'

At first glance I misread the article's "Crown Prosecution Services" as "Clown Prosecution Services" and I was like "Damn, U.K. created a whole division just for these guys.

Very entertaining game, I have zero idea what the fuck just happened
