By far my favorite part of South Korean elections: election night graphics. SBS television station kills it EVERY. TIME. They play these clips all night and they get more and more unhinged and creative as the night goes on.

Beyond cost, I don't know if Russian industry is capable of replacing these platforms. It's like as if the US had lost a bunch of B-52s...beyond the boneyard, we couldn't go back and make more.

LGBT +10 Idgaf I'm tired of being grouped with a movement that wants to self-destruct and take me down with them. All while going after lesbian spaces at the same time. The gay marriage coalition could whoop these Republicans easily and with style. I want the locked-in gays back, god damn it.

I saw a post on here recently that was like "if you don't have a strategy to win over a key Trump demographic, which is morons (low-information, low-engagement voters), you don't have a strategy to defeat Trump. As much as I hate this, that person was correct.

Why does every ICE raid consist of guys rocking kit like they're SOF in Afghanistan. You are raiding a restaurant in southern California. You are not hitting an HVT in Khost. Can anyone be fucking for real anymore.

Business Insider laid off 21% of staff and as part of the announcement said 70% of employees are using Enterprise ChatGPT and the goal is 100%. Whether or not layoffs are due to productivity gains from AI or not, companies are definitely sending this message. This creates layoff peer pressure

RFK Jr. says the CDC will no longer recommend COVID vaccines for healthy pregnant women. Yet doctors have found that stillbirths can result from COVID directly infiltrating the placenta — even for people whose COVID symptoms were mild or nonexistent. @deldeib.bsky.social‬'s story from 2022:

All MAGA hat, no cattle cuz government is hard — but they damaged the regulators who scrutinized them and it’s not clear how they plundered our data systems. At some point, there should be a massive investigation into what these fly by nights did. www.wired.com/story/nicole...

I can’t believe the media covered up the fact that a clear mental incompetent was running the government while out of his mind on drugs, despite it being widely known in DC circles, to preserve their access to the White House. There should be huge recriminations for this.

Trump's job approval rating was rising for a few weeks, but now seems to have leveled off or even reverted back to a negative trend, especially in his disapproval. He is still underwater and significantly underperforming the average POTUS at this point in the term. www.gelliottmorris.com/p/data

For 40 years, Americans have lived shorter lives than people in other rich countries. For 10 years, that's been rapidly getting worse. New research: in 2022-2023, there were 1.5 million "missing Americans," who died--but wouldn't have, if America didn't have such uniquely high death rates.

A drug addict usurped congressional power, and unilaterally gutted US soft power. Members of the administration knew about, and were disturbed by, his drug use (WSJ). Isn’t this a cover-up?

People on the left in the replies of this cheering on and laughing about a violent threat towards a Democratic governor. Incredibly pathetic and disgusting. The left simply cannot stop self-destructing. We are getting JD Vance as dictator in 2028, 1000% confirmed given this reaction.
