these are the humanities people. those with labs and funding will take much longer to leave.

"Usha Vance was reportedly scheduled to attend a dogsled race in the foreign country, sharing in a video statement on Instagram that she was “reading all about it with my children” and was looking “forward to meeting” the island’s residents.

“I’m also coming to celebrate the long history of mutual respect and cooperation between our nations and to express hope that our relationship will only grow stronger in the coming years,” the second lady said. “See you soon!”"

These people are actual fucking sociopaths

I have zero expectation that Tesla RoboTaxi will arrive this summer as promised.

RoboTaxis will also have to “navigate” the Fashla hate. Not many will be eager to risk their lives with them

To me the weird part is that one of LOTR’s main themes is that power corrupts.

WTF is up with these defense companies named after LOTR items?!

TIL I’ve spent my 30s struggling and didn’t notice it.

5 room house I rented

as a single, barely surviving?

“Barely surviving” as a single on $150K is a little too much even for SF critters.

…after law firm bent the knee and pledged to advance White Supremacy

Time to start calling it Fashla.

My favorite bullshit from the MAGAs had been “this is not a democracy, it’s a republic”.

It used to be both, now it aspires to be neither.

Can’t wait to see how TSLA stocks prices will react once people realize what an amazing target Musk’s own fleet will be for vandalism and public furor:D

Ironically, even without the vandalism these cars were ridiculously expensive to insure. When I bought my EV I checked insurance premiums, and it would’ve cost $100/mo more to insure a model 3 similarly priced EV from another maker.

this is what the fanbois never bragged about when the brand used to carry some level of prestige

totally on brand with trumpism

My point is that this method barely works for a nation that doesn’t appreciate its citizens’ lives and primary mode of assault is meat waves of conscripts. In contrast, US military tradition relies a lot more on individual initiative, and creativity that is completely incompatible with the above-mentioned leadership style. It would immediately collapse morale. The military could of course make gains regardless, but it would collapse the US economy, etc.

The world knows that leadership style already. It’s the secret ingredient of the legendary russian army that allowed them to take Ukraine in 5 days.

I’m 100% certain that LLMs are smarter than half of Americans. What I’m not so sure about is that the people with the insight to admit being dumber than an LLM are the ones who really are.

Bradley, hopefully you’ll choose more wisely with your next wife.

“Fun” story, I got my MMR 3x as a kid and another 3x as an adult because my antibody titers were and remain undetectable (i’m not immunocompromised on any level). With the current events I really hope my T-cells are ready for the heavy lifting 😅

Of course, according to RFK Genius, I’d need lower doses not higher because “race”.

For a fascist disapproval of a slim majority definitely isn’t “underwater” just a “minor inconvenience”.
