It’s paint-by-numbers shit. They aren’t even trying to hide it.
Regardless of the facts in the ground in any given campaign, you know the same articles will be written ad nauseum every cycle: - Dems need to tack to the centre - diner interview with GOP voters, uncritically platforming their rationalisations for why their bigotry-driven vote isn’t exactly that
as President, i will declare all conflicts merely an extension of World War Two, allowing me to shift any blame for dead servicemen and women to FDR and sail cleanly to re-election
The Pentagon is using a new method of tallying the number of U.S. soldiers killed and wounded in the Iran war that a U.S. government official said was “designed to obscure the count.”
It's not "harder to determine". We have centuries of jurisprudence on whose fault it is when an object or machine causes harm.
As I said above, focusing on questions of liability might be fruitful in changing the incentives for behaviour through the system
We will not comply with the EHRC 'guidance', and neither should you. Take action for trans liberation.
It's *extremely* funny that the GOP's base is more racist than they are loyal to Trump. To be a fly on the wall of Smith's campaign right now lmao
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.
british people legally can't talk about their culture of elite pedophilia because they don't have freedom of speech. that's not a right they have. and what speech her undying majesty does permit is subject to prior approval by jo terf.
Americans really don’t get to be talking like this anymore
Seattle universal school lunches (which the centrists/liberals harshly opposed) will cost $2m per year. AIPAC's money alone could have fed every child in a large city for 30 years.
She spent $70m so everyone in Michigan and around the world could hear an answer to the question: “what would it sound like if A Prairie Home Companion came out in support of an ongoing genocide?”
Unfathomable
🚨🚨 Abdul El Sayed wins the Democratic Senate primary in Michigan, NBC News projects. He defeats Haley Stevens.
madden 28 is gonna cost $7 trillion and never come out, it’s gonna rule
names you can hear david letterman saying with mild incredulity
Bonita Gooch is the next representative for Kansas House District 84, unseating incumbent Ford Carr by a 70-30 margin
Tonight we find out whether Michigan voters are bluesky posters or bluesky replyers
lmfao they’re changing the English language now. Assad puts up Jayapal numbers
WA-7 called: incumbent Pramila Jayapal (D) and businessman Nirav Sheth (R) win. They defeat copywriter Gwen Kirkland (D) & currently lead 83-11-3.
i guess im really impressed that all the load-bearing fictions held for as long as they did. especially given that it turned out to largely be load-bearing fictions all the way down
couple months ago: let's show these assholes why americans are drowning in medical and other personal debt now: wait what we don't even have the weaponry now either
Ireland also appointed a former Meta exec to the role of Data Protection Commissioner for the whole of Europe. If you think you see a pattern here, no you don't.
just a reminder the cathaoirleach of the AI committee has stock in a AI-based revenue intelligence company. Naoise insists the stock – whose value is only realisable if the company goes public – is not a conflict of interest for him as a TD forming AI legislation www.ontheditch.com/fianna-fail-...
i remember talking to an american jewish zionist about israel at a bar a few months back. it started with the normal liberal stuff (netenyahu bad, complicated situation) but eventually she said “we need to defend israel because they all want to kill us.” it’s an article of faith among these people
ive been putting up with some version of this talking point for my entire life. barely even notice it anymore. imagine if i said this about jews though. there will never be peace in the middle east until jews shed their genetic propensity for violence against mohammedeans. imagine anyone saying that
“How’s the economy going?” you might ask. Well, ribeye is $20/pound and has anti-shoplifting tags on it. So it’s guess everything is great.
Madison, WI. Today, 4August Police brought a wheel loader. Protesters clung to what they called "an autonomous zone," where a cop killed Corey Ruiz. Milwaukee Journal Sentinel's Laura Schulte, captured the scene at 7:44 am (local time). "Police have removed protestors." URL: x.com/SchulteLaura...
I’m intrigued by the recent resurgence of the ‘Long Covid is not real’ nonsense we saw back in 20/21. The refusal to learn is one thing, but the dismissal of reality is another. Long Covid is too painful, too common & too present in many people’s lives to be denied. The story is hard to rewrite.

Elon is talking about using robots to build a mass accelerator on the moon in support of an economy 1000x to 1 million times the current earth economy. It's a bad sci fi novel not an earnings call.
