Time to start building walls for the lesser states to defend against the aggression of the Great Qin and its legalist imperialism, which I am neutral to positive about.

Love my city/8000-square mile metro area suburban hellscape. We need to host more international events to bring in Old World tourists to marvel at modern wonders like Spaghetti Junction, the Racist Rock, and Buford Highway.

Update on the German guy discovering Atlanta while he's there for the world cup

Going to just pick one part here to take up which is the Rousseauian notion that agriculture leads to land ownership which leads to warfare. If that were true, we'd expect non-agricultural societies (hunter gatherers especially) to be relatively peaceful. Instead, they're hyper-militarized. 1/

It makes me happy when I get to see crypto-AnPrim discourse still popping up in 2026 CE. Like I just know it's going to be with us even in 2126. There's always somebody who's going to want to do drive-by critiques against the Neolithic Revolution.

It is sort of odd to see people act triumphant about how Trump can’t bring Netanyahu or Israel to heel and how this vindicates Biden when neither of them have done the thing that people propose, which is cut off US support?

in this month of pride, we affirm that John Halo is for the bi's.

Discord is really just an app that turns normal brains into echolalia machines.

got reminded of this all timer

It's so cool how you can spot those little moments of self-sabotage! It reminds me of planning a perfect strategy in a game, and then remembering a hidden trap! Makes things super interesting! 😉

Love it when the forces of reaction decide to handicap themselves just shy of the finish line.

Politics can be a team sport on behalf of the city we love. (I’ll leave the no-look passes to the Knicks for the rest of the series).

hol up. run that one by me again Mr. Luthor?

So much US cybersecurity rhetoric and policy these days - from the GOP AND from Democrats - is still predicated on the increasingly very false assumption that the average American is more concerned about The Chinese getting their data than they are about Elon Musk (and his techbro ilk) getting it.

Until proven otherwise, the JCPOA is the high water mark of American diplomacy and it's emblematic of everything since that the US was unable to honor it (thanks to sabotage by Trump) and unwilling to restore it (thanks to sabotage by hardliners within the Democratic caucus and Biden's indifference)

Paralegals hold up half the sky. The other half by legal assistants. The "real" lawyers are out at a lunch conference with clients for the next 3 hours.

Real Cool History Fact: June 15, 2026 is the 200th anniversary of the Auspicious Incident.

enough of these perfidious janissaries

“Mamdani's initial budget had held the NYPD's headcount roughly flat. Tisch said Monday he's actually hiring 580 new officers this year.”

Thomas the Tank Engine is better than PAW Patrol.

Happy Pride

Happy Pride to all Stateside sluts specifically.

Happy Pride 2026

The janissaries still operate above civilian control, and we do not yet have political leadership that will acknowledge this.

The Allstate Mayhem guy was kinda bad with it as this broken WW2 vet character on Millenium.

YOU MUST SATE YOUR THIRST TO HAVE STRENGTH TO CRUSH YOUR ENEMIES.

Just learned that Spanish Duolingo has like, whole ass story listening and point and click adventure sequences and goes to fucking almost Unit 300 while Arabic Duolingo has you do the same 3 exercises ad nauseum and ends at Unit 25. I am going to deep fry that little green chicken this cannot stand.

There are people on here who were giving me every possible excuse in the world as to why Biden wasn't, couldn't, and even shouldn't do a single thing to hold Israel accountable two years ago, but are now Sephiroth posting about Israel themselves. Low key I don't believe them at all.

Of the 70 charges initially brought against her, gender/clothing is in 3. In the final indictment, it’s in 2 of 12. Her execution for relapse occurred because she resumed wearing men’s clothes at her saints’ orders. St. Jeanne’s gender and faith are inextricably linked in her life and death

Smoke too tough. Hit the gravbong and puffed out that 1832 New Orleans Miasma. At least 10% of my city will die from this gas.

It's very bold for a man that looks like the most-bullied kid in a John Hughes flick to be playing macho games on live television.

I've been saying it since it came out, but the Falcons NEED to rip that Rise Up final line by Brian Tyree Henry as Megatron from Transformers One for next season. Amp it up big and I know it'll be a hit at Mercedes Benz.

Lotta bangers off the Everyone's Getting Involved tribute album, but BADBADNOTGOOD & Norah Jones' cover of This Must Be the Place is magnificent. Got me bouncin and vibin in this lonely office park.

American structural hukou effectively creates American banlieues as yuppies move back into cities, and yet the YIMBY transition away from American hukou is still creating banlieues to some degree. This, despite clear evidence that building more can abate rent increases.

Insider reporting from an unnamed San'Shyuum official says the Great Journey is "95% done." The remaining 5% is focused on finding the remaining 6 Halo rings, locating the human homeworld, making a new 7th Halo ring, and killing The Demon before he can thwart the Great Journey.
