my favorite trump admin sideplot is the OPM director trying to become a social media star. he just posted a 12 minute video of him answering questions no one has ever googled before.

Horrifying article from the NYT.

We need to exterminate these things. Deploy the gene drive. Extinct them all.

It's sorta funny how some groups are just so overwhelmingly blatant when it comes to their ethnic narcissism

it makes me really sad that "spend money on old people" is so wildly popular while "spend money on children" is so wildly unpopular

Man claims to have a biological age of 18. Cancels workout because he accidentally drank a coffee.

Meanwhile actual 18 year olds are showing up to the gym hungover after staying out til 4am and doing a dozen shots the night before.

A couple important clarifications. He did not serve four years for killing a 50-year old and shooting 7 others. He plead guilty and was sentenced to four years in July of 2023. He was released 3 years later. He did spend much of 2023 on house arrest awaiting the trial, however that ended when on house arrest he threatened someone with a gun.

Anyway when people bring up mass incarceration or whatever remind them that gangsters can spray bullets into crowds of families and be out on the streets in 3 years.

People often ask why today's tech wealth doesn't go towards more public works, like libraries, universities, and museums during the late 1800s. As far as I can tell the answer is that they would literally not be allowed to be built.

In 2014, George Lucas, a long-time Bay Area resident who built Lucasfilm in the Bay, wanted to build a museum in the Presidio as a gift to the people of San Francisco, to be personally funded to the tune of ~$700 million. The Presidio Trust rejected it. He then tried to build it in his wife's hometown of Chicago, but local nonprofit Friends of the Parks sued and held the project up for two years, long enough for Lucas to give up on the city. The Lucas Museum of Narrative Art will finally open in Los Angeles next month after more than a decade of planning, eight years of construction, and over $1 billion personally spent by Lucas.

Meanwhile, San Francisco has built no major museum projects since the 2016 expansion of SFMOMA, and no new libraries since the North Beach Branch in 2014. Public works, like so many other things, are bottlenecked not by donor will or available funding but by vetocracy

[George Journeys @GeorgeJourneys]

Millennials and Zoomers REALLY need to understand that raising the retirement age on them DOES NOT fix Social Security. Excess payroll taxes will not be “saved” for them. Rather, they will be used to purchase government bonds to finance current expenditures.

The CEO of Flock is named Garrett Langley and the founder of DeFlock is Will Freeman. Their lawsuit will be titled Langley vs. Freeman. What an incredible time to be mentally ill.

Alfalfa uses like half the water from the Colorado River for like 0.1% of the economic benefit. To a first approximation it literally just wouldn't matter if we just stopped growing alfalfa forever.

It's only viable because farmers don't pay market rate for water.
