If you're too scared to walk around a city after sunset you a giant baby, sheltered from the world and all common sense.

If investors believe this, they deserve to have their money taken. I will shed no tears for someone who loses everything when the grift is this obvious.

Cameron 🇺🇸🗽🦅@cameroncorduroy.bsky.social · 4d agoso many people still have their head stuck in the sand about a post-Trump GOP every Republican under the age of 30 has only ever known Trump-era politics, there is no possibility of a "return to normalcy"
I worked at the Virginia Tech Transportation Institute in 2014-2016 when Wendy's and Chipotle both started testing drone delivery. They had it pretty much figured out and yet a decade on its still not happening. But sure, drone food delivery is almost here!! This time for real, guys, they promise!
The Washington Post@washingtonpost.com · 5d agoDoorDash was approved by the Federal Aviation Administration to commercially operate a drone delivery service. The company said that in a 2025 pilot, the drones could deliver in an average of 25 minutes. https://wapo.st/4fvxO58
There is no theory of victory. The objective of the Iran bombing campaign is to bomb Iran. It's literally not any deeper than that.
post malone ergo propter malone@proptermalone.bsky.social · 5d agoso does any body know what the objective is of this new bombing campaign
one aggressive hardball thing I would like to see happen is blue states coordinating to have deliberately contradictory and difficult to navigate regulatory environments for hostile regime-aligned businesses such as X. what red states did with abortion pre dobbs.
Both of the last two Democratic presidents have run on explicitly ending wars started by previous administrations and successfully did so at great political cost.
at this point if an undergrad asks about jobs in academia I nudge them toward something more practical like shark assassin
“The famine is over! The curse be damned!! Hit the nuclear button! Mayo have won the All-Ireland!!” An all-time great sports commentary moment from Stephen Grealis and Martin McHugh on Mayo’s Midwest Radio. #gaa
Riveting TV and I'm not joking... Girardi: "What was easier for you, facing Randy Johnson or putting this tie on?" Kruk: "Oh, Randy. A lot easier than this"

If you think Thomas Massie is a productive voice or vote in the senate you are not engaging with reality. He was only ever correct about one thing (Epstein files) and the bar for that is so far under hell we'd have to invent new circles.
Joester@beggemoot.bsky.social · 2w agoMassie is opposition to Trump , so for now that's good enough for me , he's lost his seat in the House so appointment to the Senate loses a seat in the house for the absolute worse speaker of the the house in my lifetime( I was alive for Gingrich) maybe he is just pro-america we could use more
He'd just have to appoint another Republican and he needs actual literal proof of death under the law to do it. This denies the GOP a vote in the senate. You literally couldn't be more wrong about this.
Michael J. Stern@michaeljstern.bsky.social · 2w agoIf Andy Beshear does not push this to a conclusion that either has him appointing McConnell's replacement, or McConnell reappearing, Beshear will be out of Democratic politics. We need rabble-rousers, not the same quiet, proper Dems who keep losing.
"No way to stop this" says only branch and legislative party capable of stopping this.
Shipwreck@shipwreck75.bsky.social · 2w agoTrump allies believe the President has now exhausted most options to exit the Iran war and are now “afraid” a longstanding, unpopular, expensive conflict is inevitable, causing major anxiety about GOP chances in midterm elections.-Politico
