I have no desire to go to work but I do have a desire to eat and have a roof over my head. Capitalism must die. Universal basic income for everyone.

if people are using classified information to place bets, then theoretically others can analyze betting behavior to find signals that reveal classified information.

The cover of Sociopath: a memoir by Patric Gagne.

Finished this audiobook and it was quite good. A memoir by a sociopath who advocates for a better understanding of what a sociopath is and better psychiatric treatment.

The cover of Cold, Black & Infinite by Todd Keisling

A solid book of horror short stories. Enjoyed them quite a bit.

I took a nap and still I feel like I need to go to bed early. I hate when a nap doesn't work.

So we just live in a Black Mirror episode now huh

And you know, you can extend from this to a real important corallary to "Everyone is 12 Now" theory is "There has been a generation-long project to keep people 12."

Conservative news and opinon outlets, regressive mass audience entertainment products, etc. all propagandize a chilidish worldview.

So that second telephone in the pic, the one on the right. See that yellow bar at the bottom of the screen indicates thephone is rated Top Secret/SCI. If it's not just sitting there as a visual prop, but is actually plugged in, they've just compromised the JWICS network.

These GOP bubblegum tough guys are really brave when other people's kids die thousand of miles away from them. Meanwhile, they're literally afraid to be in the downtown of any major city after 5PM.

every time one of these markets dissembles and parses and weasels their way out of paying people on a technicality my heart grows three sizes like the grinch. i love to watch these people get scammed on crypto and nfts and gambling. they deserve it and it's funny and it's not my problem at all

"The Crazification Factor," the theoretical percentage of Americans who are simply bloodthirsty bootlicking lunatic morons who'll go along with anything the Republican Leader wants them to, is said to have a floor of 27%. This is below that.

People don't want to acknowledge that pesky "conflict of interest" nonsense

Connor McDavid is well within his rights to beat the shit outta Stan Bowman.

in case anyone ever needed confirmation that it's not about building a democratic Iran, it's about collapsing Iran and turning it into a land of rubble that can be bombed every six months

On top of all the reporting that this war of aggression was planned well in advance, it seems that the reporting also indicates that the US political leadership are quite literally too stupid to understand basic diplomacy. I mean literally not smart enough.

American capitalism depends on the military industrial complex to prop up their economy and steal resources from other states.

If you build weapons for profit, you need wars to use them.

If you're already making policy to avoid making Trump mad, you're already essentially a vassal state

It is 1991. I am 15 years old. The US has gone to war in the Middle East.

It is 2003. I am 27 years old. The US has gone to war in the Middle East.

It is 2026. I'm too old for this shit. The US has gone to war in the Middle East.

Times like these I’m so glad Merrick Garland stuck to “norms” & refused to prosecute Trump for his many crimes. Because yes—while we are facing the very real threat of global nuclear war—at least we don’t have the shame of a former president sitting in prison. Boy would that’ve been embarrassing.

The Daily Show reminded us in the montage below how Netanyahu has LIED about the "imminent" threat of Iran obtaining nuclear weapons since 1995. Netanyahu has for years wanted US to bomb Iran. Netanyahu simply found in Trump a moron willing to sacrifice Americans for his cause:

let’s stop calling each new outrage a “distraction” from the last outrage and instead call it what it is: a vast ongoing machine of death, kidnapping, graft, abuse, and larceny built to operate on many fronts simultaneously at home and abroad for the benefit of the wannabe god-emperor and his toads

Doctor Strangelove now reads like a subdued masterpiece of the subtle mimetic.

Here are six steps experts sugges...

Few patients appeal a health insurance denial, but a little-known process that requires insurers and plans to seek an independent opinion can force insurers to pay for what can be lifesaving treatment.

Here’s what experts say you need to know.

When a company in an industry built on hype tells you that a use case is a bad idea—and actually dangerous—that means it’s a *catastrophically* bad idea.
