It's crazy to me that of the core principles of Christianity, there are only about five that are objectively morally correct, and yet ultra-religious people on the right don't believe in any of them.

We really need to stop saying things like the "coming AI revolution". If the unhealthy craze we've had over AI over the last few years didn't bring about any meaningful societal progress, it sure as shit isn't going to happen anytime soon.

That's basically Jacobin's whole shtick. They go out of their way to find the left-wing positions that are the most difficult to defend, which often relies on making up absurd hypothetical scenarios where their positions would make them the bad guys to everybody else.

I don't dislike them but they don't give me any pleasure. The taste, the aftertaste and the texture are all just a tiny bit unsatisfying.

At best the whole "I don't agree with him on everything, but..." line is the most obvious virtue signalling clichรฉ but the border has been one of Trump's worst issues.

Sanders can't go anywhere near acting as if he's the voice of the little guy if he says shit like this.

Ehh people know who Janet Mills is I guess. Doesn't explain it entirely but it goes a long way.

Every couple of months Trump or somebody in his administration will say "you know, I'm starting to think this Putin fella isn't so nice after all" then a couple of days later will go back to licking his boots.

Ryanair: "we have a FULLY BOOKED flight, we have FIVE HUNDRED passengers HANGING OFF THE WINGS because it's so full so DON'T put any luggage in the locker that isn't priority or we will THROW you off the plane in MID-AIR"

The federal government that's the job of Jeffries and Schumer to oversee is rolling back civil liberties and democracy, and committing negligent homicide of hundreds of thousands globally, and they're spending all of their mental energy wondering if free buses are too extreme.

When I say I don't give a flying fuck about them I mean that as a compliment. Case in point, I will continue to listen to Fontaines D.C. despite the fact that I think they're cocky little babies.

Ireland is the richest country on Earth and they're so adamant about pretending to be oppressed by a country which in reality doesn't give a flying fuck about them.
