The moments of hubris that lead into complete failure are always the sweetest to enjoy.

he actually did the meme

…Alright, for my next exhibit in the ongoing case of money isn’t actually real and makes people go crazy, a crazy man claims his mediocre spacecraft company will be worth more than the collective wealth of the entire planet with nothing to back it up.

older games often have a display centric approach to real-time rendering, like, painting lighting into object textures was very common, or straight up using photographs as textures this lets you take very direct control over the look! modern rendering is different (short thread)

This is why I locked down my account to only people I personally knew, you just can’t trust weirdos out there.

Welp, it was fun while it lasted

really think that if democrats hold any chamber of congress next year that a condition of passing a budget is the removal of russ vought, who has a genuinely tyrannical vision of presidential power and is a focal point of the lawlessness of the trump administration

Just a friendly reminder that current science can barely keep humans alive in space for extended periods of time and they still haven’t figured out to stop the body from rapidly weakening in zero gravity. So don’t expect this gibberish for some time to come.

Mr. John Oliver please look at RAM prices so that parents will text their gamer sons and daughters “hey did you hear about these RAM prices” and we can all respond “yeah”

Two year anniversary of when I first posted this comic

See, this is why Reconstruction being tampered with had long last repercussions we’re still dealing with.

The Islamic Republic of Japan sounds like some weird powerviolence band name tbh

Crazy that the guy who betted big on the idea with people wanting to hang out and do business in a virtual reality environment and ultimately failed would also repeat the same failure with AI. It’s almost like having too much money and being out of touch correlates with each other or something.

THE ACKROOMS

Has someone done this yet

The Left(s) should get onboard with a massive expansion of public libraries across the country over the next 25 years. This is an affirmative project.

Folks, this is what a crazy man looks like

MAGA Boomers on Facebook are in shambles

This sums up so much of my irritation with Gen Z, none of you are making any significant or new observations about society at large and often lack any semblance of nuance in your whinging. Just starting shit for the sake of starting shit.

I hope he melts

I’m gonna be that guy and not pick just one but these five collectively sum up the American experience in their own way and I couldn’t put one over the other.

Narrator: Kash most definitely failed in this investigation and wants to act like it’s not his problem.

Matthew 19:24 “Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God." Guess Jesus was just misquoted according to Hateful Hillbilly Pope over here.

Pure Man in the High Castle shit

Did homeboy here watch the Red Dawn remake from the 00’s last night or something?

This is why the Dems can’t hold power, you can’t look at how things are and not only decline to offer any meaningful policy to help people but you also decide to act like Republicans in this weird attempt draw them over to your side. Like they can just vote Republican, they don’t need you doing it.

Just absolutely perfect comedy

this is a great illustration of one of the fundamental insights of democracy — that there is no such thing as "the people" and that majorities are elusive and ever shifting. no election, no decision, is final and treating an election as a final decision is profoundly undemocratic.

Trump is acting like a toddler because he knows he’s cooked come midterms, it’s why they’ve spent all this time dismantling the entire voting system and it’s why he wants this bill passed so badly. Trump absolutely is fine with fucking over the people to get what he wants, that’s what toddlers do.

The escalation of this is just hysterical omg, pure clown car shit over here

youtu.be/QoypneKwsx4?... We all knew it was coming but still, that SUCKS.

The fact that this administration is treating the pool like their own personal Barrage should be absolutely mocked and rightfully so.

You know, it is rather amusing how trashy both this administration and their approaches to solving problems truly are.

I imagine that the Iran debacle will continue to be stuck in Trump’s craw from now until he departs from this earth, you can tell he REALLY wants to move on from his failure but his tough guy image is so precious to him that he can’t.

It took 250 years but American cops finally racially profiled a white guy

Personally, the biggest loser of this war was Hegseth. Dude spent MONTHS beating his chest about kickass his military was and how they were gonna bomb Iran back to the Stone Age and yet, they did jack shit in the scheme of things and now he has nothing to show for all his shallow machismo.

"I've got social media posts that are older than you!"

it's remarkable how like, you can visibly notice how people who still use X regularly are either getting dragged to the right (if on the centre-left or centre) or just getting more toxic in general

>renames it to the Department of War >names himself the Secretary of War >fights one war >loses

This is comically bad, like these people just gave Iran the keys and said “Alright, enjoy!”

"So, uh, you don't like the old-time bikes, huh?"

Journalists have a duty to tell the public that the president and his aides are seriously considering suspending habeas corpus *when it is happening* rather than saving it for a book rollout over a year later

Crash (1996, d. David Cronenberg)
