wow — the preprint host, arxiv, is banning authors for a year if they submit papers with hallucinated citations 🤖

It is an endless embarrassment that Schröder is still an SPD member. The man is a literal Russian agent and board member of Gazprom.

#UkrainianView How many yaers have passed? russians still try to say that all russian attacks against civil population are " as staged as Bucha". This time, the mofo says that the house was mined beforehand.

Here’s a fun game: what’s a bug that regularly happens on your phone and computer? My weird one is that my iPhone screen sometimes goes black with a grey pinwheel. Sometimes it doesn’t happen for months, sometimes it happens once a week, has happened for years across multiple devices.

🚨The Russian Central Bank is warning that people are withdrawing much more money than expected from banks. And as money is drained, a liquidity crisis is looming which may risk the stability of the entire Russian banking sector. Money printer may start going brrrrr soon 👀

just the sheer fact that people have stopped trying to shove me in a locker and are willing to hear me out when i talk about linux being a better experience than windows these days is a huge indictment on the state of things IMO. people thank me for saying shit they used to beat me up for saying

This was a 9-story residential building. Now it's rubble. This is what the Russians do to us if given even a brief ceasefire: they stockpile weapons so they can more effectively kill Ukrainian civilians. This is why we will never surrender to them. Surrender means death.

Portland bar and club managers talk about "It" happening like medieval Europeans talked about Prester John. Times are bleak now, lads, but one elderly man's failing organs are all that stand between us and 150 million Americans launching a drinking binge.

🤯 Vilnius Airport was again temporarily suspended overnight due to balloons drifting in from Belarus. Lithuanian authorities say the balloons disrupted more than 370 flights last year and caused over €2.3 million in damages.

One of my biggest gripes with social media is how many people walk into my living room with a turd in the hand going, "Oh my god have you seen this turd?!"

As recorded by the Center for Strategic Communications, Russian influence resources actively are using the interview of the former presidential spokesperson Yulia Mendel with Tucker Carlson as one of the key information pretexts for discrediting Ukraine and its leadership.

If it looks like a duck, quacks like a duck, denies it’s a duck, demands you prove it's a duck, accuses you of being a duck, says your dog is a duck, and that it won't shit on your grass anymore if you just give it your garden to shit in, it’s a Kremlin duck 🦆

I gave an interview recently about the importance of making nightlife more affordable for young people, and some of the feedback was, what a woke interview. And I think: so much of the current moment is just indulging people who don't want anyone else to have nice things.

Europe: yay, Eurovision #UaView : post in a monitoring channel saying this night we are highly likely to suffer a the massive missile attack this night

There is no such thing as an amicable divorce from Russia. Russia is the pathological toxic partner who comes back to shoot you out of jealously that 3 years after the divorce you might have gone on a date with someone else.

Watch this trend very closely.🔍 As the war drags on, economic collapse accelerates, and drones strike targets across Russia, it's becoming clear to Russians that Putin is the cause of their pain. Even Russian propagandists are openly blaming Putin now. This is a sea change.

He told ChatGPT he was a nazі іncel who wanted to dіe, then asked how many people you’d have to shoot at his school to get on the news. ChatGPT helped him pick his ammo, pick his target, pick the best time for the massacre, and then told him how to use the gun. Then he did. youtu.be/IbG-JGdGniY

Even after trump is put in the ground, the US will have to face the consequences of having proved itself to be completely fucking untrustworthy. A proof which happened before Trump's second inauguration even happened, the mere fact that he had not been arrested and prosecuted.

Shame on Fico and all the Slovaks who support him

And look who’s already broken the ceasefire they so tirelessly pushed for through their American mouthpiece. The last shred of credibility of the US now depends on whether the 1000 Ukrainian PoWs will be released from russia. #UkrainianView #UAView
