If vibe coding is so efficient tell it to write a 3D mechanical CAD package for Linux. I'll wait.

Overheard at the co-op: It's like the day Trump got COVID, but without the hope.

And you know those DOGE boys have access to the Epstein files because Elon made sure they could access EVERY network to be able to "do their job." So all Elon has to do is text one of them "Now. Send them out" (maybe he'll use Signal! 😆) and embarrassment galore for TACO POTUS.

Someone whisper to Trump that all those DOGE people that Elon installed are loyal to Elon, not Trump! He really should purge his administration of those people before Elon has them turn on Trump! Much worse than the Deep State, right?

I have seen some nasty breakups in my time but this breakup of the Don/Elon bromance is setting new records!

I worry sometimes that my grandchildren are going to read about the early 21st century like we read about Atlantis, with stories of magic like "They could reliably predict the weather, days in advance!"

I really can't get over how Secretary of State Clinton *might* have discussed classified information on her personal server and it was news for months. And yet we have proof that Secretary of State Rubio discussed classified war plans on his personal phone and nobody gives a shit?

I've asked a lot of people why they wanted to be rich, but the only reason that has ANY validity is they don't want to live in fear that the next decision they make is going to ruin their life forever. That's the sad reality for the 90%.

This is fucking brilliant!

Even a kindergartner knows the "root cause" of the Russia-Ukraine war is that Russia drove into Ukraine and started shooting people. It isn't rocket science.

Using AI for looking up information is like using a library where there is no distinction on the books between fiction and non-fiction.

Hey democrats you want to show ACTION? How about this, get California, where you have super majorities in both houses and a D governor. pass a state law FORBIDDING law enforcement personnel from wearing a mask when on duty. If they must wear one for safety reasons, I must show their full name. Go!
