in what meaningful way can we say that the constitution is in effect when an unelected and unaccountable billionaire is wielding state power to unilaterally cancel congressional appropriations?

Elon Musk's mother moved to South Africa in the year Apartheid was created, and she and Elon left the year it ended. The last Apartheid Prime Minister, a man who refused to testify at the Truth and Reconciliation Committee, was a family friend who stayed at their home. This is not a crazy theory.

As the climate data for 2024 continues to arrive, I've updated my graphic showing changes in various climate indicators for the recent past, and the last 2000 years. Most notable change is a big jump for tropospheric temperatures (TLT) in 2024. [Sea level and land humidity data not yet available.]

so you're saying you saw two roads diverging in a yellow wood .. and you could not really see what was at the end of either path .. but you know you chose the cooler one ? are you sure you're not just trying to affirm you can create compelling visions for your future or whatever ?

one of the things we are going to regret most about the last decade is not making cryptocurrency flat illegal. i think you should think hard about what it means to have much of the president's inner circle heavily invested in an asset class which depends on the collapse of the American economy.

When I had my kid, the insurance company wouldn't cover me, because I didn't get "pregnancy insurance" BEFORE I got pregnant, so it was pre-existing. Then I got pre-eclampsia, went into organ failure, was going blind, and almost died. They billed me $78,000.

bc you lack knowledge, and listening skills. you are the one who has hit a wall, not those who say that training on public (yet copyright) ip without consent is theft. your bio says overthinker but i don’t think thinking is what you’re actually doing as you’ve clearly outsourced that to technology

the frenzy over the hunter biden pardon is a good reminder that the press knows how to make something a scandal and has decided that nothing trump does is truly deserving of that treatment

the only reason that tech was ever remotely left-coded was that in the early 2010s they consciously aligned themselves with what appeared to be the dominant political party. that meant large donations to Dems and nominal gestures toward diversity. as soon as the winds shifted they swung right.
