I was born and then things went downhill from there. This is a variety show. I talk about different things. I'm an old guy who loves new stuff. Science & tech intrigue me even though I'm not good at either.

Addendum: Let's face it, by this point if some super AI announced that our leaders were all incompetent and it was taking over the world, a LOT of people would be cheering.

I've trained ChatGPT to be as unhinged as myself.

1) Fuck over veterans 2) Stage a military parade Personally, I wouldn't tempt fate like that because this is how accidents happen. Big, explosive accidents.

When Trump was on his 20s, America was a manufacturing center. When Putin was in his 20s, the Soviet Union still existed. A million lives and six trillion dollars to try and move back the clock to a past that sucked to begin with. Most guys would just buy a sports car & a bottle of Viagra.

Have you ever noticed that the probability of pasta being presented as a food option exponentially increases whenever you're wearing a white shirt?

On one hand, China banning US movies is an economic disaster for Hollywood. On the other hand, now Hollywood doesn't have to kowtow to the PRC so hard they have to wipe Jinping's jizz off their faces after every script rewrite. Imagine the original version where Finn got the girl & became a Jedi.

If Democratic lawmakers are afraid that Trump will just pardon any of his cultists that get convicted of a crime, just remember that shipping said felons to a prison in El Salvador before he can issue said pardon is now an option.

Thing is about the bait & switch stock market manipulation is that it only works once. After that everyone knows you're just trying to pull the same scam again and ignores you.

#games Some games force players to play as a generic white linebacker. People complain, and rightly so. Other games force the player to play as diversity icons. People complain, and rightly so. How about you both spare us your personal political views and just add a CHARACTER CUSTOMIZER?

Pointing out hypocrisy is simply pointing out a double standard. That's why this has no effect on MAGA cultists, as double standards are the entire point of every supremacist movement. They already know they're hypocrites and they're proud of it.

#movies Someone please explain the popularity of this new Minecraft movie, especially amongst children. The game came out before that movie audience was even born. Public interest was at zero for over a decade except for a few obsessed lunatics trying to recreate the Taj Mahal in 1:1 scale.

It's kind of strange how once upon a time, Jordan Peterson was very much adamantly against everything that MAGA stands for today. A far cry from the frothing lunatic of today that spews whatever propaganda his sponsors hand him to read into a camera. Kind of sad, really. youtu.be/bDDtjQyFL6A?...

What makes fascists such a joke is that they simultaneously try to push an agenda that amounts being pants-shitting afraid of everything and everyone in the world alongside a narrative pretense of power, strength and masculinity.

Scammers are inherently narcissistic people, which is why they always get angry when you call them out. As always, narcissists never defend, only attack. They're like amoebas that way.

#economics Allow me to summarize the current state of the US economy for the financially illiterate:

The Soviet Union boasted over 2,000,000 soldiers, 50,000 tanks, 1,000 ships and 10,000 aircraft. America didn't flinch. Then Russia got their hands on 1 piss tape and America completely surrendered.
