Because politics is sports teams to them. It's not about the ideas, or reason or logic or sensible solutions to things.

It's about who's proposing them. Their team is good, your team is bad, the issues are irrelevant.

Are we getting up too late in the summer and too early in the winter? No, it is Daylight Savings that is wrong!

Oh boy, kids are just going to love walking to school in the dark in November on rainy streets full of anxious caffeinated motorists trying to avoid being late for work.

There is also a more practical reason why you can't just war crimes your way to victory: Every innocent person you kill turns everyone they know/love into a potential terrorist.

You cannot compel a populace to behave by force.

Cybertruck was in the game Hard Drivin

Not the Winter Olympics tho. Regular people will literally *DIE* if they attempt those events.

The Olympics have always been about classism, straight up. They held onto the "amateurs only" rule well into the 90s not because they didn't want money and professionalism to corrupt the Games, but because they didn't want upper classes mingling with -- and potentially losing to -- commoners.

I don't know who to root for in this war. One side is ruled by a cult leader who leverages religion and exploitation of minors to fuel their delusions of grandeur and dreams of destroying the old world order. And the other side is Iran.

Money can't buy happiness, but it sure solves a lot of problems that cause unhappiness.

Bunch of fucking morons running the world right now.

I wish billionaires were more interested in solving/funding stuff like this, instead of shit things like mass domestic surveillance, replacing labor with AI, or blowing up foreign countries.

Well.... UK Hardhouse, mostly. Some rough transitions toward the end.

Irrespective of what Merriam-Webster says, there is a more suitable word to use instead of "irregardless".

Historically speaking endorsements don't budge the needle. Voters don't care.

Leaded gasoline, acid rain, ozone layer, Y2K -- all dangerous warnings that we took seriously and made efforts to fix them.

And we fixed them so well that some believe they were never problems to begin with.

You can even add infectious diseases to that list.

"Epstein Island is the manifestation of girls in the physical plain that is the foundation of exponential human observation"

Multiple hard techno DJs removed from events amid allegations of sexual misconduct Artists have also severed ties with Steer Management following the online circulation of “serious allegations” against several DJs signed to the agency

I've been saying this for the longest time: DJ sexual misconduct is the norm, not the exception.

Currently? I mean hasn't this been a thing for awhile? I remember Datsik/Excision and Derrick May and also Erick Morillo who chose to kill himself via GHB overdose rather than face the consequences.

DJ sexual misconduct is the norm, not the exception. I should create a running tally of all of them.

So wild to watch these billionaires waste their money buying broadcast television networks and legacy newspapers when not a single person under the age of 45 even watches TV or reads the paper.

RFK Jr certainly did.

I would vote for the Rave Party.

Campaign HQ be flashing strobes and blistering Acid House music all night long.

I mean it kinda worked. AI still hasn't killed everyone.

I always thought Victorian writers were too longwinded with their meandering run-on sentences full of endless asides and clauses and prep phrases.

And then I read the translated works of Tacitus and was like "ah, so that's where they got it from."

Economics: Who gets it.
Politics: How they get it.
History: When they get it.
Philosophy: Why they get it.
Sociology: Should they keep it?

I came up with something similar for systems back in high school:

Economics: Who gets it.
Politics: How they get it.
History: When they get it.
Philosophy: Why they get it.
Sociology: Should they keep it?

Ah yes, Bad Ass, with Mickey Finn -- the sonic horror that gave us Jump Up. We didn't know it at the time but it was a point of no return.

This "movement" is Potemkin activism funded by Russian active measures and Facebook/Xitter algos shoving AI memes and bot-slop into every Canadian's feed every 5 mins.

None of it is real, except the few Trucker Convoy dickwads in the comments, and the occasional Nazi-adjacent Alberta politician.

I think of them like chariot races.

Chariots hadn't been used in warfare since the Bronze Age, but chariot races were huge entertainment spectacles right through the Byzantine era. They were as big as modern pro sports, they even had their soccer hooligan era (cf. Nika riots).
