Venezuelan drugs are the new weapons of mass destruction.

FANNSTU STYKKIÐ?? #felixogklara

This has to be the ultimate leopards eating faces

Morning Bluesky.

"Calling for help was a hostile act" The world's most powerful military is currently run by psychopaths.

She has the moral clarity that a lot of elected Dems could use: what is happening today is evil. You don’t need to analyze it much more closely than that

Tourism is a sector that's very sensitive to hassles and bullshit because travelers can and will simply just choose to go where there is less hassle and bullshit. This in fact seems to be the goal of the current US administration - that tourists stay away from the country. It's working very well.

Comedy is legal again

„Svo fannst mér forvitnilegt að það er alltaf verið að segja að það sé allt þarna í hræðilegri niðurníðslu og allt ómögulegt, en mér fannst svo skrýtið að þeir gætu verið með svona rosaleg hátíðarhöld og rosalegan fögnuð ef það ætti við.“ Já einmitt. Þetta hefur aldrei farið saman nokkurn tímann.

cryptography is a mathematical system for transforming problems which aren't key-management problems into key-management problems

Ah yes. Harvard Law School in the early 1990s, well known for its Communist professors.

It rocks that the online voice of the US government is "computer-damaged reactionary virgin."

Completely agree. The fates of Ukraine and Europe are linked. European security system will be destroyed without Ukraine.

Elon Musk's latest update to Grok makes it praise him above any other human and people have been having a lot of fun with it

Stefna ríkisstjórnarinnar í innflytjendamálum er að vera meiri Miðflokkur en Miðflokkurinn sjálfur svo að Miðflokkurinn komist ekki til valda. Þvílíka snilldin.

when I was young, i used to wonder how people like this would fare in life, as they didn't seem suited for gainful employment. it turns out, the internet allowed them to accumulate a massive audience of similar idiots, enriching them and turning them into a presidential advisor

Next time someone starts whining about antifa, remind them of this.

Whomst among us hasn't felt a little vacuum about snackie all done

Why would the Epstein buddy president go out of his way to help sex trafficker Andrew Tate? Guess some mysteries are unsolvable.

Meanwhile the murderer's examining his own fidgeting hands

Calvin and Hobbes is one of a handful of pieces of art that I sort of expected to leave behind when I grew into adulthood but instead continue to point at in increasingly desperate ways to beg people to increase their humanity

If your big tent is large enough to accommodate Nazis, then it’s a Nazi tent.

Hey Gemini, does this Labour policy have any historic parallels?

Það er ágætt að pota aðeins í þetta aumkunarverða þvaður.

Trump's tariffs are hurting us in two ways: First, the obvious: Higher costs → either lower profits or higher prices. Second, more subtle (perhaps bigger): We’ve signaled we’re an unreliable partner, so allies are reorganizing supply chains to avoid us. That's hard to unwind.

The world’s first trillionaire initiated a move that has left more than half a million people dead, most of whom are children.

„Snorri Másson, nýkjörinn varaformaður Miðflokksins, sagði í grein á dögunum að hrun vestrænnar siðmenningar vofi yfir. Sigríður gerði lítið úr þessum orðum, sagði að Snorri væri oft skáldlegur og ekki endilega full alvara að baki orðunum.” Hún er algjör meistari í gaslýsingum.

This is a longstanding, thoroughly disproven lie. Vance is carving out a little niche for himself as the guy who tells vicious, racist lies about non-white people to massage the egos of white nationalists. And the *specific* lies he tells reveal he’s well versed in white nationalist propaganda.

Treating humans as human. “Our new service is known as a ‘client consultation’, not ‘assessment’, and is built on a relationship of trust with the client and grounded in the professional ethics and expertise of our health and social care practitioners" www.dailyrecord.co.uk/lifestyle/mo...

Oct 30th 1988 - Donnie Darko's alternate reality comes to an end. 📽️📅 Donnie Darko (2001)

Þetta er gott. Sjálfstæðismenn þurfa meira af þessu til að stöðva fylgistap yfir til Miðflokksins og snúa vörn í sókn. Ekki með því að reyna að vera meiri Miðflokkur en Miðflokkurinn. Það er engin sérstök afturhaldssveifla í gangi en kjósendur vilja hins vegar skýrleika og sjálfstraust.

Any updates on this

NIMBYism is often discussed in terms of folks protecting their property values/nest egg. And I am sure that is a big part of it. But I suspect "I don't like change" and a healthy dose of racism and xenophobia are the biggest drivers.

Zohran Mamdani caught lying that he understood Plato’s allegory of the cave, yet when asked to explain it, he seemed to instead explain Baudrillard’s theory of Simulacra and Simulation where reality has been replaced by symbols and signs, which seems similar to Plato’s theory but is not the same

From an article about the man in the SS uniform arrested for attacking the woman in Georgia. Just wild that we've accepted that there's a huge social media platform where an account called "@GasChambers" is allowed to openly do Nazi fundraising and that's fine, in fact all the reporters post there.

It’s so cool that there’s a big chunk of people to whom the term “capitalism” just means “trade” and if you try to explain any actual academic or historical definition of the term, even ones accepted amongst academics who think it’s a great system, they become furious and reject it.

I've built a socioeconomic system that depends on everyone to do useful work and act ethically except the people at the top, who get unimaginable rewards for being antisocial frauds and criminals. And I think it will stand the test of time

Hann gerði þau mistök að nota ekki hundaflautur á borð við 'hrun vestrænnar siðmenningar' þannig að auðvitað þarf hann að víkja. Það gengur náttúrulega ekki að segja þetta svona alveg upphátt, skemmir fyrir þeim sem kunna á hundaflauturnar.

Spending $1000 on decorative gourds to signal "your" creativity and whimsy to your rich neighbors, while SNAP ending is about to make millions go hungry, is a metaphor that a book editor would make you delete for being too on the nose

Let the doors be shut upon him, that he may play the fool no where but in ’s own house.

We’re giving $40 billion to Argentina. This is $5 billion MORE that the entire USAID budget that DOGE cut.

I think about this in how the guy who ran MySpace sold his company and then traveled the world doing photography, while the guy who runs Facebook never let it go and has gone out of his way to destroy democracy in order to gain more power.

if you don’t spend several hours a day on your phone you’ll miss all the Crap and Bullshit

But of course. Anyone with half a brain could have foreseen such a result.

"Every time I speak to Vladimir, I have good conversations and then they don't go anywhere," Trump said. Don't say we didn't try to warn ya, Donnie www.bbc.com/news/article...
