I have nothing but contempt for dem elected and commentators using this moment to primarily finger wag at protesters or to tell them not to make Trump mad

I do love how the "meritocracy" crowd has a growing media empire funded by billionaires that amounts to a make work program for their family

Robots to free up time to do…all things they are trying to make us wholly dependent on AI to do for us.

It never occurs to the c-suite class the root issue impeding creativity or productivity is meeting bloat

We live in the golden (dystopian) era of audience capture

Without any social programs for universal health care, paid family leave, and child care any incentivizes you throw at juicing birth rates are de facto incentives to remove women from the workforce.

Giving Rogan any credit implicitly excuses him for platforming all the racist charlatans who exaggerated the immigration crisis in the first place. He hasn't earned any of it.

It's very telling to me how flimsy the "evidence" against Abrego Garcia is that not even NEWSMAX can produce a menacing looking photo of him

This man always frames his failures first as "something is wrong with my video game controller" and then later "well actually, this is all going according to my masterplan [fart noise]"

This place is guaranteed to have 75 different LA County Public Health violations and the health rating of C hidden behind a supercharger in the far corner of the lot

This woman is permanently exhibiting the energy and demeanor of someone being escorted out of a TGI Fridays after being over served

The only piece of actual wisdom I have ever learned about US politics is "Never believe something is too stupid to happen."
