I’m a Navy veteran. I used my GI Bill to study philosophy. Politically, I'm inclined toward cosmopolitanism: National boundaries have no moral significance. They are the result of violent conflict. This is not moral justification. Humans migrate.

America hasn’t felt this upside down since I was a child in an internment camp.

As a veteran, anything can happen now. Trump and Musk have no respect for veterans.

This is the stupidest thing I’ve heard in several days.

Yep, it’s hard to disagree with this.

Well, he did say that he loves the uneducated, and the Department of Education is the biggest enemy of uneducation.

Trump administration retreats in fight against Russian cyber threats Recent incidents indicate US is no longer characterizing Russia as a cybersecurity threat, marking a radical departure: ‘Putin is on the inside now’

Pete Hegseth just reportedly ordered the US military’s Cyber Command to “stand down” from all planning against Russia. Analysts have been ordered not to follow or report on Russian threats.

One inside source said, “Putin is on the inside now.”

The problem with Mars is that its population is entirely missing. We just need to send one person there. Mars is ready now.

I don't think I've ever been more disappointed with my own country. This isn't the country I signed up to serve in 1990.

Part of being a great president is having a great relationship with the most talented speech writers in the business.

Now, listen to our co-presidents, Musk and Trump, try to sound intelligent in front of the camera. Trump has Steven Miller and Musk has, well, himself.

The last thing they ever expected was an idiot revolution, where the stupidest people fight to be treated like they’re actually intelligent, and they elect a leader only morons can admire.

I overheard someone at work saying that the recent aircraft accidents were staged to make Trump look bad.

Paranoia and ignorance are outrageously high, but making it worse is that it’s almost impossible to get these same people to admit to being wrong.

A driver of ordinary intelligence and skill could easily get out of this mess, by not driving one of these.

Yep, just try getting wealthy by being yourself. Only the guy at the very top gets to do that.

Note: Philosophy professors are probably the lowest paid in all of academia. If you want to make good money doing that, you'd better have some highly lucrative talents on the side.
