PUTIN YOU’RE NEXT YOU BALD HEADED FUCK

I need an entire Advent of Code that's just day 1s, because 2024 has beat me up so much that's about all I have the heart for.

Joe you’re in the lame duck now and you already lost you don’t have to abet a genocidal apartheid state anymore because of domestic political constraints Joe Biden:

Hey new users: - don't mention the wifi nipple - cookie recipies involving pudding get you a block - never follow a skeeter to a second platform - yes, they're called skeets - yes, skeets - skeets

Despite everything, Fukuyama's concept of Thymos stays the best way to analyse politics

I somehow got python segfaulting using an lstm. What did I do to deserve this

You know we should have expected that to be what 631 was

This point cannot be made enough.

Google provides great film summaries (for Nezha conquers the dragon king)

2000 mules under the sea
