If I wanted to speed run a dystopian dark age, I would:
- close public libraries
- enshittify the internet to the point of unusability
- end childhood vaccinations
- reserve healthcare for the rich
- cut humanities programs at universities
- pour the nation's wealth into AI companies

If you’re a journalist who’s still on Twitter, from now on in your writing you have to replace “the American people want” with “troll bots in Eastern Europe demand”
Being there makes your judgment suspect. I don’t care how savvy you think you are, you’re marinating in a disinformation campaign.

The immediate thought is why would this woman be reaching out to me unless she is a fifty year old dude in China using filters to look like a hottie to scam a few bucks off dumb Americans. Suppose it goes to the larger issue that we don't answer our phones anymore because everything is a scam.

Just had a kind of self-conscious moment about some sort of internalized sexism. The internet isn't real life, but it just occurred to me that I don't accept DMs or friend requests from hardly any women unless I know them or we have some professional relationship. I just assume they are a fake/scam.

Republican Senator Mike Rounds said Secretary of State Marco Rubio, in a call to senators, confirmed the so-called 28-point “peace plan” was actually a Russian wishlist and is “not the administration’s position”. Nor is there any threat to cut off weapons or intelligence to Ukraine.

X quietly disabled a new feature that showed which country an account was posting from when it revealed that lots of popular right wing MAGA accounts were being run from foreign countries like India and Nigeria.

The military is real big on "NDAs" which they like to hold over people's heads despite being basically impossible to enforce. Operators do not sign the same paperwork as CIA officers, and to my knowledge are not subject to the Intelligence Identities Protection Act.

The only real weapon JSOC has against these guys is social shaming (which Delta has openly advocated in a email that went out to former unit members) and pulling that alumni card. They'll never take them to court because of how embarrassing it would be for the unit, not to mention legally dubious.

Agree, not playing fucking games with grumpy CSMs down at Bragg. Interestingly though, no one even approached me about taking down our @theteamhouse.bsky.social interviews with former Delta operators. Guess they knew what my answer would be.

Elon Musk says that in 10 to 20 years, work will be optional and money will be irrelevant thanks to AI and robotics | Fortune
“It’ll be like playing sports or a video game or something like that,” the Tesla CEO said.
These inbred elites treat our country like a combination of a bordello and a casino, speaking gibberish, promising bullshit, and lining their pockets. You have to have a room temperature IQ to believe this kind of shit.
