You know where Musk got his juvenile insistence on calling things "X"? His racist, antisemitic maternal grandfather was a "Technocrat." They all changed their names to numbers and Xs and believed that tech-bros should rule the world.

Did no one at CBS consider monetizing the videos online?
Plenty of people would love to hear what Colbert has to say in the morning, or in the afternoon. Advertisments on CBS's website instead of YouTube would generate a ton of money, but no one is going to subscribe to Paramount Plus to watch it.

Can we stop pretending that the voters believed anything Trump said in the campaign? They didn't care about policies, or they would have questioned the tariffs. They just needed superficial reasons for rejecting the black candidate and/or the woman candidate.

That's really quite clever rhetorical technique:
Brush off the question and then slather bullshit all over the next 60 seconds so that there won't be a soundbite of the interviewer's reaction to the brush-off answer.

Plato's Cave allegory, illustrated. the shadows on the cave wall are captioned "increasingly insane and extreme positions", the prisoners labeled "internet users", the figures holding the shadow's shapes labeled "algorithms", the fire labeled "random internet users expressing their idiosyncratic beliefs". the space above the cave is labeled "literally just outside" and the philosopher freed from the chains of the physical world labeled "guy who logs off"

Come on, guys! It is essential that our elementary school kids learn that the Sabbath day must be kept holy. How are they supposed to learn morality if they don't acknowledge that there is only one god, the god of the ancient Israelites? This is *exactly* what our schools need. Not math and reading.

When the Cass Review came out last year, the NYT rushed to cover it complete with post notifications. After reviews in Germany and Utah came out supporting gender affirming care for trans youth, dead silence. You can be just as biased in what you don't cover as what you do.

How do I ask Anonymous to get the list of donors to GiveSendGo's fundraiser for that Nazi playground mom in Minnesota?
I suspect that it's not just small donations from a bunch of racists, that some big donor racists wanted to see it make her rich.

Only because the idiots charged him with murder. If they had stuck to the charge of taking a gun into a situation illegally and causing it to escalate, he would have done jail time. He put himself in a situation requiring self-defense because he was hoping to shoot protesters. Don't defend him.

1. Trump can't admit mistakes.
2. The longer the crisis and the lower the market goes, the more shares his friends can buy on the cheap. The plan is to concentrate wealth even further than it already is.
