More Than 100 Reported Killed in Strike on Girls’ School in Iran The strike hit the school during the first wave of strikes around 10 am on Saturday morning, the start of the school week

time.com/7381982/iran...

Netanyahu hit a girls school, killing around 100 children.

He did this to inflame the Iranians and make terrorist attacks more likely, because that strengthens his hold on power.

He also previously hit a prison during visiting hours to maximize civilian death.

Screenshot from "Punisher Max" where Frank explains that members of law enforcement are supposed to be primarily concerned with saving people, not killing them. He says that if they need someone to look up to they've already got one. His name is Steve Rogers, and he would be proud to have them. Kash Patel is an empty poser who has never read the comics.

Never forget that The Punisher canonically hates members of law enforcement who want to idolize him.

All that faux-fan posers (like Kash Patel) are doing by wearing that logo is showing that they've never read any of the comics.

Has YouTube started using AI to "help" the algorithm?

Because my feed has been dogass for a while now, and it's only getting worse.

Israel is committing genocide in order to steal land that they have no right to take.

Anything less than that is pro-genocide propaganda.

Informed progressives don't trust the mainstream news because the mainstream news is not worthy of trust.

No, this is important.

Their channels of information are all run by people exactly like them who boost the pro-rich narrative.

So even rich folks who aren't monsters literally won't know this stuff is happening.

The WSJ certainly didn't print that there was record homelessness in the US in 2024.

Marx predicted that rich people are so ignorant that they literally won't notice when poor people start starving because of their policies.

Happened before both French and Russian revolutions.

So anyway 13% of Americans have to use food charities in order to get enough food.

Ah, well. What happened there is quite magical.

Because sometimes, if we're really good, and we wish really hard.

The trash takes itself out.

Sam Altman on how he plans to generate revenue
YouTube video by AI Videos Sam Altman on how he plans to generate revenue

Is Sam Altman stupid?

LLMs can't generate anything new. They can only repeat what they've been fed.

So an LLM can never create a new business model for AI.

It's like asking a photocopier to write a book: the accuracy of the copier doesn't matter.

Trump's attempt to unilaterally impose tariffs was another step towards a "self-coup" which occurs when a leader concentrates so much power in their own hands that they become impossible to remove.

Putin.
Maduro.
Erdogan.

This is the playbook: get elected then become dictator.

In the years since publishing my Wolfenstein essay, I’ve wondered what a truly β€œJewish game” might look like. Does it need to explore the themes and narratives of the culture? Or could it simply star the most famous Jew of all time β€” Jesus Christ himself? youtu.be/8dkB-KTMB3o

True Legend (2010) Epic Fight Scene

Loved the new video and it reminded me that I also loved your "fight scenes" video.

You see, I too am a man of culture.

So here is my pick for the greatest 1v1 fight scene in cinematic history.

All you need to know is that the pale guy is a master of "poison fist"

Never trust a Minister of Health who uses private healthcare.

It means they know public healthcare isn't good enough.
And they have no intention of fixing it any time soon.

We know that Rupert Murdoch uses his news outlets to push fake stories that benefit him.

It's very unusual to find a well-informed person who trusts Fox News' coverage.

Yet those same people will unironically reference the Wall Street Journal, as if it was trustworthy.

Did Trump seize those ballots in Georgia because he wanted to establish a precedent that he's allowed to do that?

A precedent that he will then use to seize ballots during the mid-term elections later this year?

I understand that Pam Bondi was doing.

She knew that her purpose was creating soundbites for Fox News, CBS, and the other right-wing outlets.

That's why she didn't even respond to the questions. She had pre-written talking points and she was just working down a list.

Amazon needs to realize that being cheaper than other options only works if people actually get the products they've ordered.

At this point I would gladly pay more money if it means the things actually arrive.

Been trying to get a fridge from Amazon since November but they keep screwing it up.

And also the real reason he has fled is because he's in the Epstein files.

That's not a joke.

He's really in there, colluding with Steve Bannon.
Fact check me.

Been trying to buy a fridge from Amazon since November. Things keep going wrong.

Different things each time.

At this point Amazon is less reliable than Temu.
And I am not exaggerating.

Batman and Iron Man aren't "pro-rich propaganda".

They're a story about how much better the world could be if the rich used their money to help people instead of just mindlessly hoarding it.

Like those people who fill their apartments with old magazines.

And don't know why.

Governor Newsom proclaims Ronald Reagan Day | Governor of California

So Gavin Newsom is celebrating Ronald Reagan, but then being confused as to why progressives don't trust him?

Could someone please explain to him that "signalling" is an omnidirectional process.

So it's not only conservatives who will see this πŸ™„

Conservatives often underpay teachers to create an education crisis that they can use to push for privatisation.

But there's another trick: the teachers are properly paid but completely outnumbered.

It doesn't matter how well you're paid if there are 50 kids in your class πŸ™

You're publishing something from the Cato Institute, a right-wing propaganda farm, as if it's real science.

Remember when Cato told us that:
Smoking is healthy.
Climate change is a myth.
We don't need clean air legislation because polluters will "regulate themselves".

And on and on for decades.

The highest health official in the land doesn't think infectious pathogens are a problem.

It's a miracle he isn't dead, and he thinks everyone will be so lucky.

Seeing what they're searching for is just oversight.

Bringing it into a congressional hearing in the form of a prepared list so that you can potentially use it to attack the people questioning you is unprofessional and unethical.

Plus she committed perjury and should be prosecuted.
