How many billions do you think the Trump family and cronies made going long oil stocks before the attacks?

"Rebuild" = "develop shitty luxury condos so the worst right wing influencers in the world can move there"

TIL recently. The fruit orange came before the color orange. Before 1500 everyone called that color yellow red or saffron. This makes me mad for some reason.

It really get's old knowing that I work hard and pay taxes so that the US can afford to kill people thousands of miles away that I have never met. But I'm supposed to be patriotic right?

Just the best people.

"To effectively eliminate its human creators in the United States, Skynet launched a targeted nuclear strike on Russia, anticipating that Russia’s automatic retaliatory counter-strike would destroy its enemies in America." Maybe using AI for this sort of thing isn't a great idea?

fwiw here's the sourcing I saw at 1am about the US sinking of an unarmed and knowingly unarmed Iranian Navy ship x.com/KanwalSibal/...

Stumbled across this anti-war PSA thing. It's well done. youtube.com/shorts/4luhy...

Meanwhile

I wish I could see the look on her face while she had to listen to this, but it doesn't seem like her face can actually show emotion anymore.

Is it just me or is there really not much information about the Iran situation? At this point in previous wars we would be drowning in media coverage, footage of things blowing up etc. Is this a result of the death of the MSM or are we being kept in the dark?

I've been taxed for my entire working life to subsidize the profits of oil companies. Let's keep doing more. 🙄

I feel stupid that I used to believe this guy gave a shit about the climate. But as a wise man once said, "Fool me once, shame on... shame on you. Fool me—you can't get fooled again."

"Simpsons did it!"

They don't want regime change, they want to collapse the state so they can profit and take land.

So the plan is to kill leadership, install a puppet, and take their money? Called it.

Raytheon Executive: I know you’re skeptical about buying American again. But hear me out. The MIM-104 Patriot is the only surface to air missile system with a proven track record of success against the US Air Force. Danish Defense Minister: Continue.

I don't know how this all ends, but almost zero chance part of that isn't something like "Iranian oil revenue to be sent to off shore account in (shitty middle eastern nation with no scruples) that only Trump has access to."

Picking bad guys to be in charge is the reason for half of our problems over the past 50+ years.

"Let them eat cake." "Nah, let them eat offal."

War is awful but the toys are fun to watch.

NEW: We obtained 911 audio from the Texas detention center housing hundreds of immigrant kids and their parents. Since mid-September, EMS crews have been dispatched to Dilley at least 11 times to treat children in medical distress. Burning fevers. Low oxygen. Seizures. A broken leg. My report:

The political class learned that you could support a terrible idea and then years later pretend you never supported that terrible idea.

Ah yes, we just need this incredibly dangerous product that other nations manage to do just fine without. MAGA really is a death cult.

It's pretty great that America can't decide whether to lean more into Idiocracy or Westworld.

An old meme but it fits. She and many others in this administration are just internet trolls with power in the real world.

This is the only good thing I've heard about her. Calm down Boomer Collins. The admin is full of pedos but psychedelic experimentation is where you draw the line? Next up, Reefer Madness!

So just like the entire tech industry.

It's fun that the Democrats spent 4 years sitting on their asses and doing almost nothing to prosecute these guys.

Former ICE lawyer Ryan Schwank: “I received secretive orders to teach new cadets to violate the Constitution.”

RE "We need more babies!" For those who aren't familiar, the Cobb-Douglass production function is one of the basic economic formulas that describes the relative returns for labor and capital. The basic idea is that if you increase labor, then capital receives higher returns, and vice versa.

"Wait, I thought it was only those OTHER women that would lose their autonomy and voice!"

People are a little too excited about Trump's low poll numbers. It's not like those numbers are out of the norm. There are still far too many chuds who love him.

Trump family so that means this guy will be classified as a lone wolf with mental problems.

Hahahaha. I'm definitely hoping the foreign trials will reveal new information linked to Trump and his gang of misfits.

MAGA men sure love trying to fight children. Real alpha tough guys the lot of em.

You have to be a real monster to see this and not see why all of this is a problem. Unfortunately, that description seems to apply to most MAGA voters.

By this logic we need to ban the sale of high heels to minors as well.

I wonder who will keep that money?

Ghislaine Maxwell is being treated better than all of the babies and children in ICE detention. Let that sink in.

Who did it better?

Well, this guy is out. I don't want to hear the Dems spend another 4 years saying we all just need to move on and pretend it's all back to the status quo. They had 4 years under Biden to protect the nation and failed.

Are we having a shortage of this cancer causing crap or something? MAGA really is a death cult.

Who else supports the death penalty for text/email scammers?

I cancelled my Ring doorbell subscription and immediately started being bombarded with false alarms. Fuck you Amazon. You aren't even being subtle.

"We are not going to fund the Gestapo until they promise to be nicer." - Senate Dems

Scoop: Ring's CEO told staff Search Party is not going to be just for dogs, according to a leaked email I obtained. Said it is "first for finding dogs" before suggesting it would be expanded to be used for crime: www.404media.co/leaked-email...

I'm just imaging what shapes Optimus will make...
