YOU’RE LISTENING TO SISYPHUS FM, THE HOME OF NON-STOP ROCK

“read the room, not your group chat” is something a lot of these guys could learn

America's leaders killed the Iranians that have been open to negotiations, empowered Revolutionary Guard hardliners, handed them a big prize with the Strait of Hormuz, and are now confused that they intend to get something for it.

“The revealed preference is their core voters actively enjoy being taken for a ride by the most obvious scam artists you’ve ever seen, as long as they validate their morbid pathologies about race and gender as they do so.” www.liberalcurrents.com/respecting-r...

important thing to note here is dr oz cites a current american replacement rate of 1.5, which is not true. the american replacement level in 2025 was 1.79. interestingly, the white replacement rate is in fact at 1.5 though

There is nothing that sounds faker than hearing someone describe the kids shows they grew up with if they are not your exact age.

We are to believe that the 328 House members and 79 senators that voted for the VRA in 1965 and the 98 senators and 390 congresspersons that reauthorized it in 2006 are idiots and partisan, and John Roberts, the constitutional saint, isn't. What an arrogant prick

if ai ever works as it’s been sold to us, the most easily replaced employee of every company would be ceo and as far as i can tell theres never been a single article written about that

It’s a shame that our modern age has turned the phrase “potential spam” into a constant annoyance instead of a potential pork surprise

Yet again I am pitching the Pet Gala™️

3:01 AM: "Welcome to Spirit Halloween Airlines!"

Housing prices are set by supply and demand. New construction reduces rents by lowering prices in older buildings nearby. If relatively expensive new buildings aren’t built, the wealthier people who would have lived there will start bidding wars over the neighborhood’s existing less-expensive homes.

Or – and get this – people could learn to empathize with characters & reflect on the events depicted in of a work of actual art to learn something about themselves, human nature, or society AI is antithetical to the entire purpose of the art & kills humans' ability to introspect or think critically

i started hating the supreme court nearly 26 years ago and i welcome everyone onboard the train now

They have more money than they could spend in 100 lifetimes and they're still terrified of losing any of it. This is scared loser shit. It's pathetic. I just ordered takeout that will cost me more of my net worth than any tax would cost these fuckers. That makes me braver than all of them combined.

Literally we spent the last six months being told private donors were paying for this thing

A mass shooter's ideology is irrelevant. As long as one side wants gun control and the other doesn't, all mass shootings are right-wing.

The ADL permanently sacrificed its reputation to get in good with a massively dangerous antisemite and white nationalist. They defended him and stood up for him even after his Nazi salute. Here's how he repays them. This is what happens when you think you're using bigots. They're always using you.

Holy crap, guys. His approval rating is down 300%.

make bad art

Zhang Shan won the gold medal for the mixed skeet shooting event in the 1992 Olympics. The International Shooting Union *immediately* banned women from competing against men.

GM could release an electric version of this car tomorrow and people would lose their damn minds

The meta glasses have no socially justifiable purpose to exist. They only exist for Mark Zuckerberg's purposes and they can only sell outside of a novelty capacity to people who want to use them for socially hostile purposes. 5/x

OpenAI: We’re burning money like the Joker. A miracle needs to happen for us to turn a profit Microsoft: Please please use our AI systems, we’re teetering on the edge here Anthropic: I wonder what’ll kill us first: lawsuits, regulations or model collapse Media and universities: AI is here to stay

BLACK LICORICE IS BETTER THAN CHOCOLATE

pretty clear bright line today, anyone in power who isn't doing everything they can to remove him from office deserves handcuffs when this is all over. that includes any democrat who votes for anything he wants

Our elected government could have that asshole out of the White House by lunch if they wanted.

The modern age is the last gasp and juvenile scream of Manhood asserting that it would rather reduce the world to rubble than imagine one where it does not hold primacy.

From my ant-on-the-ground perspective the way the tech ecosystem works is a bunch of brilliant engineers get passed around by this little club of malignant narcissist dunces and, seeing this, investors and the press determine that it's the dunces who are visionary gods

what if running the global economy on the liquefacted corpses of ancient beings somehow cursed us?

Apparently the democracy isn’t as strong as we thought.

The best possible Muppet movie is a 100% accurate telling of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, where everyone is a Muppet, except the monster, who is played by a completely average guy without makeup.

the tortoise lives, as per helena horton at the guardian

adam says it much more succintly. the american right will happily impoverish the united states and make it an oversized backwater if it means they can dominate women and minorities and play act as a master class

1/2 After Air America went off the air, a myth developed that no one would listen to liberal talk radio. But the network's audience numbers were actually fine, and all of the major hosts are still on radio/YouTube/TV. Clear Channel media is actually what happened as @hartmannreport.com noted:

Again, the first Tea Party rallies in April 2009 -- heavily promoted in advance by Fox News -- only had about 300,000 attendees across 750 cities, but the media treated it like the Second American Revolution. There will be multiple *individual* No Kings rallies today that have more people at them.

In the social sciences this is known as the reagan bowtie

The cost of your flight went up because you searched for it twice. Your rideshare costs more because your phone battery is dying. This is surveillance pricing – corporations using your own data and behaviors against you. In the US Senate, I’ve got plan to ban it.

911: what is your emergency ME: i found a lost puppy 911: please hold ME: oh hell yeah

it's incredible that as long as you do the right amount of bigotry you can just rob the country blind and enough people will not care, even though those same people will be filled with incandescent rage if someone uses food stamps to buy a 12 pack of diet coke

Elizabeth Banks

The last generation of VC investing has been underscored by the fact that venture money circles are filed to the brim with very wealthy people that are completely inconsolable that they missed the boat on Instagram/Amazon/Facebook/etc. So, they're susceptible to snake oil labeled The Next Big Thing

Robert E. Lee got his ass beat at Gettysburg by a professor of rhetoric and oratory from Bowdoin College and generations of reactionary fantasists have died mad about it.

I wish that Pentagon request would silence any sort of "we can't afford ..." (I know it won't.) If we can find $200B to sooth the ego of sundowning narcissist, we can afford to fund ANYTHING. Including air traffic control. EVERY aspect of degraded service we see is a CHOICE.

the plural of Channing Tatum is Channings Tata.

that theft machine man was like "you should have to buy intelligence" and then that one with the egg shaped head was like "oh yeah, i will buy that actually bc i've never thought a thought in my life" and yet somehow i am the one who has to have 17 active projects and a full time job so i can live

A fundamental problem with this country is that you have less responsibility, transparency, and duty as you gain more power when it should be the opposite. The Supreme Court gets to be very secretive for no good reason. Cops get a monopoly on violence and have near total immunity when they use it.
