Agreed - it's wild that a person could look at this and think "Those damned leftists." There's a *historical* problem here, one that we've all been told to ignore.

CSIS does outline their methodology, and I don't find it terribly faulty. They don't, however, publish which attacks/plots of the 750 they reviewed were considered "terroristic" and which were not. At least, not that I could find! I didn't have time to look deeply.

Graph showing number of terrorist attacks and plots per year by right- and left-wingers. The jagged teeth of the right-wing creates a tall, sharp mountain range, while the meager line showing left-wing is tepid and small. Last year's 29 right-wing terror attacks to last year's 1 left-wing terror attack seems much more significant than this year's 1 right-wing terror attack to this year's 5 left-wing terror attacks. A footnote indicates that this year's data is only through July 4. Numerous right-wing attacks have occurred since.

I love that the takeaway from this graph is "Those damned leftists."

These types of mean, callous boy have always been around, but it used to be they'd kill kittens in abandoned lots, or some such depraved thing, and get a rise out of people by talking about it. Then they started filming it. Then they got access to guns.

I've been a Hulu member since the service launched in 2007. Not anymore. Boycotting ABC/Disney is a surprisingly easy decision!

Everybody gamely says β€œVance hosted Kirk’s podcast” instead of β€œthe regime officially turned the major channel into state-controlled media just as it began its violent crackdown on any opposition or dissident messages.”

This is bonkers. I work in a crime-adjacent field in a really big city. For anyone to think they’re more likely to be the victim of carjackers than they are of distracted/reckless/raging drivers is unhinged.

The casual, unintentional sexism is my favorite kind, because it’s just so weird. Like, sure, I guess I can ask my husband to fix my bike for me? But I’ll have it fixed by the time he gets here, so that seems more efficient!

Incurious people who don't really care will continue to be *~DAZZLED~* by generative AI. People who are truly invested in the result will continue to swim upstream against the flood.

There's a reason they use the word "toxins" and not "pollutants." One is magic hoodoo that we need to protect ourselves from, the latter is a real thing that industry is choosing to subject us to, and the goverment chooses not to protect us from.

Maybe if the media pushes hard enough and pretends to care about women (you know, like they always do), they can get the TdFF cancelled and push these ladies back in the kitchen where they belong, eh?

These articles are fucking ghoulish.

The best blog I've read on the topic. ChatGPT, LLMs, and consumer-facing AI are impressive to people who don't care. They're just banking on the rest of us giving up.

It never ceases to amaze me - truly - how coolly and cavalierly they've destroyed everything for citizens. I knew this administration was made up of weirdos and chucklefucks, but there's just something about demolishing the entire economy that feels so far beyond what I would have expected.

This is how my husband found me! I looked at his profile on a dating site, but he had expressed a religious preference and I was a dirty atheist, so I didn’t message him. He saw I looked, though, and reached out. We got married a year later. I snuck right through those filters!

You didn't frame it as "romance and attraction." You framed it as "getting laid," the open discussion of which is indeed the purview of PUAs and misogynists, for super obvious reasons. The left is *full* of discussions on romance and attraction! But that's not really what you're talking about.

One way or another, these people are bound and determined to sacrifice children to capitalism. No matter that they’re too young to participate - they can suffer anyway!

I’m sorry for the long post but a lot of you have followed me for a long time, since 2016 when I was one of the first to repeatedly call out Trump for being a Russian asset.

I don’t know how else to say this, as a person who has studied cults (wrote a bestseller about it) and totalitarian states.

OPE deleted!

The way this man was attempting to assign moral wrongdoing by Mamdani, who *literally* selected the most correct options on the questionnaire is bonkers. Maybe our hamfisted attempts at understanding "heritage" is the problem! Not some kid who's African and Asian AND American!
