I didn't end up reading the entire article, but I thought it was hilarious when he said the fact Musk reportedly scored very well on the SAT the SECOND time he took it was proof he had a very high IQ

That should have been the first obvious clue that Elon was a fraud

They also need Elon to be a genius instead of a fraud because otherwise they'd have to wrestle with what it means that they were duped by a fraud like Elon

It's not a paradox at all if you just think it through. Tolerating intolerance will lead to the end of tolerance because that's what intolerant people want. Tolerance doesn't require acquiescing to your own destruction

I would almost have more respect for them if they admitted what Trump was doing and said there was no problem with it. They do that with everything else. Why draw the line here and lie to their audience like this?

The Yankees might have an easier path to make it into the World Series since the Dodgers are in the NL

If someone honestly believes using chat bots is a useful learning tool that can help kids develop critical thinking skills, with creativity, etc., then they need to teach kids how to engage with them that way. Otherwise, kids will just use the bots to do their homework and other silly things

Oh look, another obvious conflict of interest Elon somehow missed

From Sassoon's letter, it sounds like Adams was the one offering support in carrying out immigration raids in exchange for dropping the charges. Either way, I agree with you he needs to go

It's performative. If the vote were in doubt, he'd have voted "yes." This is a man whose entire career is defined by putting party above everything. He doesn't deserve praise or credit or laurels. The only thing to celebrate about Mitch is that he's on his out (which also explains his "no"vote)

A couple of reasons:
1) Election night results made it look like a bigger win than it was; the accurate counts came later and weren't as widely reported
2) Trump and his lackeys need it to be a mandate to justify everything they're doing. If he has a mandate, people can't complain

Meanwhile, Trump is offering refugee status to Afrikaners. Gee, I wonder what makes them special?

It's funny how that now Trump is the White House it's an abuse of judicial power to put a stop to executive orders.

Fetterman pulled the bait and switch of the century. He's like a frumpy Sinema or Manchin, but somehow worse

I think I found some of that corruption he keeps talking about

It is an indictment on basically everything that an adult with the emotional maturity and mannerisms of a cringey edge lord teenager is the richest, most powerful man in the world
