The US just surrendered it. Absolute epic stomping on our own dick. Really remarkable.

Knowing anything about where anyone older than, say, 22 went to college is HARAM

Bad, weak, wrong answer by Cory Booker. I’ve only been a Democrat for 2 months, I disagree with Zohran Mamdani on a number of issues, but of course I endorse Mamdani. He ran a great race & he won the Democratic primary. Come on Democrats, don’t be afraid to embrace a big tent.

The perils of being pointless excrescences on the money making machine. Never use Google shit unless you are paying them for ad services.

Yeah and there’s a positive feedback loop because we consciously decide how to modify our environment (kind of). People are weird.

Evolution is not teleological. We are what we are because we are fit enough.

The problem isn’t the looming obsolescence (not happening) it’s that the richest idiots in the universe believe it’s going to happen.

The idea that the only new station wagons you can buy are the M5 and the RS6 is a goddamned CRIME.
