US Energy Secretary Chris Wright says Russian diesel exports have seen a "huge disruption," with Russia now exporting none. He added that Russia has shifted from being a small exporter of gasoline to becoming a "meaningful importer" of it.
I've read enough of Arthur C. Clarke's books to be sure that he would fucking hate Elon Musk.
MNF starts too damn late on the East Coast. I should be watching football already
I fucking love this and wish it was the democratic platform. It's not that hard. "We will fight for your rights no matter who you are." Just do it
We're being told that if we sacrifice the rights of some people, then the rest of us get to keep our rights. We all know that's some BS.
Do we really need to bring up bloodshed from 170 years ago when these two university teams play sports against each other? Kansas: Absofuckinglutely

The president is: 1.) senile 2.) stupid 3.) can't be re-elected 4.) already got what he wanted (lining his pockets and dodging jail) 5.) is cocooned from reality and placated with AI slop that both fuels and humors his delusions I do not think this is a recipe for responsible statesmanship.
Chicago Stars driving down to KC with a trunk full of cash to Vlatko’s house right now.
Cuaron was asked when he made this (2006) how he created such a convincing, organic-looking future Britain. He said he looked at what was happening at the time and then just assumed for the movie that everything would keep going on much the same trajectory as it was then, for twenty years or so.
T minus 435 days, and counting down.
