Yalkut Shimoni midrash (499) on the Book of Isaiah:
“Rabbi Yitzchak said: In the year that the King Messiah will be revealed, all the kings of the nations of the world will provoke one another. The king of Paras (Persia) will provoke the king of Arabia; the king of Arabia will go to Edom (Rome) to seek counsel from them. Then the king of Paras will return and destroy the entire world.
All the nations of the world will tremble and be frightened; they will fall on their faces and be seized with pains like those of a woman in childbirth. Israel too will tremble and be frightened and will say, “Where shall we go? Where shall we go?”
God will say to them: “My children, do not be afraid. Everything I have done, I have done only for your sake. Why are you afraid? Do not fear—the time of your redemption has arrived. And this final redemption will not be like the first redemption [from Egypt], after which there was still suffering and subjugation by the kingdoms; this final redemption will have no further suffering or subjugation by the kingdoms after it.”
@LegalistsOfGor@restoreorderusa You do realize the CIA was actively failing at that before October 7? Judicial reform protests were entirely propped up by color revolutionaries funded by the US.
@octal@mattparlmer Shrimp welfare seems like a net neutral waste of money to me. Will receive at least a 100 million if anthropic goes public anywhere close to 1 trillion.
According to halacha this man deserves lashes for crossdressing

@pegobry_en Anthropic is not required to sell their product to competitors under anti-trust law. You are just mad Anthropic wants to exercise its right to freedom of association. You support it when it comes to avoiding feral nons, but believe doesn’t apply to lib coded companies.
String theory is probably a field that has set back quant trading by at least 10 years. Stealing top tier trading talent to do make believe 26 dimensional geometry, inflate boomer professors’s grant budget, and produce zero testable hypotheses or applications after 50 years
Lmao @JulianWaller is this an Autocracy? Did someone here do an Autocracy?
Or nah just Our Democracy? Or are you like a Paradox of Tolerance guy?
I bet ur students want to know too—
NOW in Gaza: People are grinding rice and pasta to make pizza—because there’s no wheat flour left.
We are on the brink of watching people die from hunger.
I would like to announce my new 4X video game: Indigenous People’s Milling Adventure. In it you are the head of a tribe and you lead them on a bold journey of staying in the same relatively bountiful (in produce terms) region for a few hundred years.
"We only have radical Islamic terrorism in the West because we keep getting involved in foreign wars!"
Switzerland has stayed neutral in every conflict for the last 206 years.
@interstatejuche The AIPAC-endorsed anti-Trump side spent 10x more on Cornyn (in office since 2002) than the entirety of the Gallrein campaign cost and still lost. Really blows a hole in certain theories.
The Obama and Biden administrations gave away tens of billions of dollars to political allies without meaningful judicial or Congressional review, often in cases they had already won (Cobell) or cases where the agreed-upon billions of relief was literally illegal (Sweet). Internal DOJ memos singled out conservative organizations as NGOs who shouldn’t get the money. Court review was for whether the *plaintiffs* were being treated fairly, not whether taxpayers were—taxpayers had no standing to challenge the settlements, and it was assumed that DOJ was looking out for taxpayers even when it was obvious they weren’t. Cobell even got a posthumous Presidential Medal of Freedom for her role in ripping off taxpayers.
In 2017, House Republicans passed a bill to stop DOJ slush fund settlements. (I had testified for a version of the bill a year or two earlier.) It got no material Democratic support and Senate Democrats killed the bill.
Trump could do six settlements as large as the weaponization settlement, and he still wouldn’t have done half as much damage to the rule of law and the taxpayer fisc as Obama and Biden. These are the rules Democrats in Congress and the presidency insisted upon.
