What is Hu up to these days
We need reparations for ICE victims.
Anything short of that is setting the stage for a massive wealth grab from people of color that will re-entrench racial disparities for generations.
Using their illegal war of choice to stoke intensified anti-Muslim/anti-brown bigotry domestically is a big point in the pros column for the GOP
If they ever touch Heaven or Las Vegas this website will collapse

Check out this BS rent-seeking from record labels. TLDR: a Virgin imprint is going around to (unmonetized) “rare finds” music curation accounts, ripping the audio directly, releasing compilations w/o remastering, then DMCAing the source vids
I’m no industry expert but that’s some real fuck shit
Austria, Germany, and Italy are mountainous! And also very tiny
The Cascades range is like 3-4x the size of the entire country of Switzerland
Is this a Platner take
The dread comes in when I think about Trump and Hegseth reaching for a B61
Obviously it’s our problem too
To paraphrase John Connally: “it’s our racism, but it’s your problem”
They’re actually doing a second one, gonna be The X now
💯
Anyone who is a director or otherwise key facilitator of a Musk company should basically be cast out of polite society
I won’t hold my breath because secondary sanctions are hard to carry out in general and we live in a decadent age, but
Honestly this is overly generous at this point. Our alcoholic SecDef is a violent pervert who believes in cruelty for its own sake. It may turn out they resulted from incompetence, but there is no reason to assume these murders weren’t deliberate
If Trump’s Iran War results in all the dogshit Hermann Tilke circuits in various slaver landlord petrostates getting pulled off the calendar…
I’m not saying I’ll flip to supporting it, but
They planned the Maduro op with Claude, but now they have to use Grok lol
I think it’s more that the right is irredeemable and so the only coalition partners for a counter-movement that could incentivize the blob to change are socdems and left. But their energies are channeled by DSA-IC who are not serious people. It’s an electoral frustration born of cramped prospects
They've now killed four people -- three U.S. citizens and a Mexican national. They've shot several more.
They've lied about all of them. They haven't shaded the truth. They haven't "misled" us. They've brazenly, knowingly lied while in possession of the evidence disproving their lies.
Newly released footage shows an ICE agent killing Rubin Ray Martinez, 23, in his car in Texas.
"He was shot at point-blank range through his side window by an ICE agent who was in no danger."

“Other than a general model of natural language, what does it have to offer?”
Like yo
There are structural reasons (mostly due to the swapping of admins) why this is hard to maintain, tbh
Healing conflicts like Nagorno-Karabakh is why Trump won the FIFA Peace Prize FYI
1) global macroeconomic effects of too much oil market vol are just bad overall, still sensitive to specific oil market products even though we’re a net exp
2) nonproliferation
But those do not justify basically any of the postures we’ve taken the last 30+ years, much less what Trump’s doing Joe
Need a law-knower to tell me under which statute can we throw the people making these ghoulish fancams in jail
We could have funded pepfar for a year with what we've already spent achieving God knows what in Iran. It's unconscionable
The cult of Palmer Luckey is particularly amazing because the only thing he actually did became the basis for a business unit that’s lost Facebook close to $100bn lol
One of the biggest own goals in a year of many. Dems need a plan in place to try and bump this back up, big time. Not that Biden restrictionist-lite bullshit
Taking strategic high ground at great cost in blood then immediately doing a land acknowledgement about it
My own take is that the warped psychology of a personality cult makes proximity to the leader the ultima ratio even if said leader has one foot in the grave
