Gift article. Lucky he wasn't arrested for spitting on an agent & attacking their vehicle previously. Absolutely *nobody* deserves to be murdered, ever. But he was very clearly *trying* to orbit too closely to the sun. He was doing all he could to draw a reaction & become famous on social media.

Take the power away from the NIMBYs. Be very scared.

I used to want Pete Buttigieg to run again in the 2028 D primary, but I just don't know if I can stand to observe the party's homophobia again. When push comes to shove, they will push that button again to get their preferred candidate in.

Newsome may be smart, flashy, and brash, but Pete Buttigieg, with his quietly spoken, no bullshit attitude toward politics, is what is so desperately needed now. Pete, your words strengthen us in ways that no others can right now. Thanks.

BREAKING: Meta whistleblowers claim that WhatsApp private chats can be accessed by the company, despite repeated promises of full end-to-end encryption. A US lawsuit alleges Meta misled billions of users worldwide about the true level of privacy. Business as usual at Meta: lie, deny, repeat.

Here's a new mathematical concept: the impulsive outrage to reading comprehension ratio. This is the likelihood that someone will either misread or simply not read what you wrote, & immediately react with outrage about it.

One big downside of "needing" to go viral on video-based social media, is that it tends to cause people to go against what ought to be their instincts & putting themselves into real danger. If video-based social media doesn't exist, would any of those people even have been around to get murdered?

They never lack for imagination, do they. If only they could harness that in a positive direction & they'd be doing incredible things. Alas, all they've got is victimhood gymnastics on the internet.

Did you know that almost all of data center energy use (over 85% of it) has nothing to do with AI. Did you know that data centers as a whole only account for 1% of all power consumption. AI (which people claim is why their power bill is so high) barely even relevant when it comes to ⚡ consumption.

Dear god the D party bots & influence accounts already have catch phrases ready. We already have laws that do exactly that. So it's just...a catch phrase

Often, feeling as if you accomplished something glorious far outweighs actually accomplishing anything of meaning. A city worker making $13/hr will have to load this in a truck, & the city will have to pay to landfill it Just a convenient excuse to pass off the cost onto the city. Glory to you tho

Apparently you are not allowed to use the term "3rd world" anymore or else these ret*rds will call you a xenophobic racist something something. Bluesky never fails to provide a laugh even on the darkest days.

the normal thing that the state authorities can do if they do not want civilians deciding to try to retaliate us to charge those who commit murder, even if they are feds, and force the federal government to defend withholding them in court, which they will likely lose

Why is anyone walking around with a heavily modified automatic weapon with an optical sight, extended magazine, and a silencer on it? Unless he was literally walking to a shooting competition or something it makes zero sense to me. I must be missing something.

Science has been drowning in slop for a very long time. 70% of published scientific studies can never be replicated. They are regularly filled to the brim with so much filler & nonsense that they're able to obscure their own flimsy findings. That "AI slop" blends into that is not a shock at all.

We are aware of reports of another shooting involving federal law enforcement in the area of 26th Street W and Nicollet Ave. We are working to confirm additional details. We ask the public to remain calm and avoid the immediate area.-City of Minneapolis Alleged video of the shooting:

Muslims migrating to the west adhered to the Quran. When numbers were low and there was no leverage it was “To you your religion, and to me mine” — Qur’an 109:6 As influence and power expanded, it became “Fight them until there is no fitna and religion is for Allah alone.” — Qur’an 8:39

Very important finding. Many species of turtle have temperature dependent sex determinism. Scientists now believe that these turtles may have an unexpected biological mechanism (epigenetic changes) to deal with climate change & not end up dying off.

It's important to note that there is relatively little buying power left for fund managers to push the stock market as a whole substantially higher. The market is going to continue to be very sensitive to any bad news. Any shock induces selling. Tread very carefully. This is a late cycle signal.

I had a record day today of being blocked by the Biden dead-enders. Glorious

I would say that ~90% of "politics diehards" on the internet treat it just like pro wrestling. You have to buy into the storyline & the facade to then get bent out of shape about it. The 22 year old recent grad Klob staffer (who puts out 50 boilerplate social media posts daily) is getting RATIO'D 😂

People will do anything to avoid getting out of the conspiracy rabbit hole they have dug for themselves. "Fake News!"

Mental decline is irrelevant with respect to the job of President of the United States. But TRUMP! 🤬

Okay so the insurgent leftist candidate looking to unseat the old lady in the gerontocracy who's just too damn OLD and TIRED to have the job anymore is apologizing for missing events because of heretofore undisclosed narcolepsy causing her to sleep through them, got it

In 2023, @wyden.senate.gov introduced a bill that would have codified protections for journalists through a federal "shield law." But other Democrats wouldn't back the bill, because the Biden administration wanted to subpoena a former Fox News reporter in a classified info leaks investigation.

Trump is claiming he has a deal in place now with people that have no idea what he's talking about. He's just claiming done deal. The DOJ being employed by the president is a fatal flaw of our political system. They're doing all of this in broad daylight. Above the law.
