A drawing of Pinky and The Brain from the 90s saturday morning cartoon Pinky and The Brain as Kefka and Gestahl from the 90s super nintendo game Final Fantasy VI. Or perhaps the other way around. I don't know anymore.

Imagine contorting yourself only to get shaken down harder

This isn’t the Top Gun 3 I expected but I’m saying there’s an angle for an F-35 here

At this juncture it’s important to remember Key Square’s returns were terrible and he was frequently on the receiving end of wrong way risk and picked the losing trade in a lot of complex situations.

I am willing to believe everything else in the story except this.

Just like other people’s kids should avoid college and go to trade school

Serious point: This might be the most interventionist American government in my lifetime. The price of just about every good reflects the good thinking of the Commissars in Washington DC implementing their 5-year plan for National Greatness, rather than market forces.

Apparently COVID happened in 2022

These are all lightweights masquerading as deep thinkers because of relentless marketing likely driven by a lack of self-awareness. We’re better off.

One of these methods makes me marginally employable as I become unreliable. The other one makes me a superstar without any clear impact on my health markers. Hrmmmm

not a single person denied the email, they were just outraged at the leaker for breaking confidence, Yudkowsky even declared that they should be shunned, lol

The US government was able to orchestrate the invasion and subsequent dismantling of Panama’s government under Operation Just Cause in about 39 days at a time when our military technology was far less advanced.
