Rent control is a bad idea. Everywhere. Always. That's the one thing nearly all economists agree on. We had it and it didn't work. Let's not have it again. https://t.co/r9sojyrLh6

Search is full of ads and wrong answers. Every other email is an ad. Prime Video charges you and shows ads. Paramount? Ads. Peacock? YouTube? Hulu? Ads followed by more ads. Netflix full of ads. Meta and X, every other thing is an ad. Pinterest is nothing but ads. AI is in everything. AI finishes sentences incorrectly and won’t stop. AI reads your email and search history to target you with more ads. Every time you open an app or visit a site there’s an update making it worse. In a hurry?

Oh sorry, your phone can’t handle this update. Now it’s useless. Go get the newest phone. Here’s a text from a friend, an email, a voice mail they left three days ago but you didn’t see until now because of sync problems with the cloud. It’s their GoFundMe. Their MLM. Their Patreon. Never mind, you didn’t respond to their text within 9 minutes and now you’re no longer friends. They blocked you. Make new friends. Download this app to find people in your area. In your neighborhood. On your street. Two doors down from you. Do you know this person yet, we think you’d get along. You need an account to use this app. That username is taken. Enter a password.

Allow the app to access your contacts, know your precise location, store your credit card details. Oops, sorry, we got hacked now all that info is available on the web. There’s a class action suit. You can join. It’ll take a decade to get your $3.73 share of the ten billion settlement. We’ll send it via PayPal or deposit it to your bank, just tell us those details. Oh no, another hack. That info is circulating now, too. Here’s a spam call, a spam email, a spam text. Why are you angry? Why are you talking about getting rid of your phone? Why don’t you like AI, it lets us make all of this easier? Do you know how ridiculous that sounds? This is progress. You’ll be left behind. Do you want to be left behind? Do you???

What did not make it into the story was one of the sources I quoted (I'll let him name himself if he wants to) joking description of the majority of condominium owners as, 'the newly wed and the nearly dead'.

iran’s nuclear & ballistic missile programs were a real threat. more to israel and the gulf states than than to the united states, but real nonetheless.

responding to that threat with an all out regime change war is one of the most irresponsible foreign policy decisions the united states has made in my lifetime.

we will suffer the consequences of this mistake for years for years to come.

Which other HC could?

[Ari Meirov @MySportsUpdate]

#Patriots HC Mike Vrabel was at Arizona State’s Pro Day today, checking out 6’6”, 321-pound OL Max Iheanachor.

No other HC does it like this.

Yes. This is transparently the plan. It is a destructive and unconstitutional plan. And it can be stopped. It can even be turned into an electoral issue that hurts Trump. But only if we face this now.
