An infinite number of podcasts would appear commenting on who was white enough to survive the race rapture.

I’ve always loved that the covers of books are specifically designed to allow you to judge the book, especially if they have a synopsis or something on the back.

Judge that town.

The cheapest PCs are ones that didn’t make the cut for Windows 11, so I’d look for 6th or 7th Gen. RAM is cheaper as well. Then you can build something cheap, and iterate from there.

For a beginner, check out Unraid. It’ll do 99% of what you want without being a hassle.

What do you call a Nazi collaborator?

Any smartphone is the obvious one.

But, the first black hole was confirmed in 1971. The fact that we’ve taken a picture of one would be incredible, not to mention directly imaging planets in other solar systems.

I guess this is the place to remind everyone that we did not save the cheerleader, so we did not save the world.

She’s dead.

Oh for sure. It’s the same logic applied when you beat your wife, so she leaves you for your neighbor. It’s obviously the neighbor who ruined your marriage. Wife as well, because a part of you knew she would cheat, because leaving you is obviously cheating, and that justifies the violence.

My grandma won’t drive on the interstate. These are the same.

Wait until a reporter asks Sleepy Don about the Monroe Doctrine.

He may be rich enough.

He seems like the kind of guy who has a couple couches though.

I mean, I get it.

It’s why you don’t buy a white couch. It shows all the stains. You want a darker colored couch to hide dirt, orange juice spills, that kind of thing.

Only rich people have money for a white couch. Because if you spill some wine on it, and the stain won’t come out, they can afford to replace it, no questions asked.

Tell me your parents have money without telling me your parents have money.

Why do you think they’re unpopular? Is it possible that the party which controls how funds, advertising, and opportunities are allocated in the primaries it fully controls has a vested interest in keeping leftist politicians out of office?

There’s a hotel room in Dallas where some young Republicans are all chuckling about how funny it would be to download Grindr to troll “the gays,” but they’re all secretly excited to check out the local scene.

That’s my point a little bit. Unions were not keeping wages consistent with productivity, their leverage was. Then they lost that leverage. A lot of people want to bring back unions with no changes, and capitalists have learned it’s better to just close the Starbucks.

This is something that will only be changed through legislation, and since no political party sides with the worker, that’s a slim hope. Government is literally the biggest collective bargaining tool we have. It’s a union, but we’re losing that as well to corporate interests.

I think it’s telling where unions have had staying power, and where they haven’t.

This graph is a bit of a misnomer.

Why did union membership drop? Did people decide it wasn’t worth it, or were unionized jobs the first to be automated and shipped overseas?

I think this is a lot of people’s experience with Elon, and least until be went full crazy. If you didn’t know anything about the subject he was talking about, he sounded smart. If you did know something about it, you figured out how dumb he was really fast.

I get a bit confused listening to some a Christians talk about the end times. According to the Bible, we already live in the end times. The end times are not some dial some people are twisting one way and some people are twisting the other.

I think some people believe that God has a checklist, and he’s waiting for all the monkeys to essentially random chance Hamlet of of a typewriter, with all the hoops and conditions needed to bring about the end of the world. If your eschatology is Twitch Plays Pokémon, try again.

I don’t know. If Trump has taught us anything, it’s that a significant percentage of people struggle with empathy. And despite us being the war hawk, military police of the world, I would guess there are fewer people who understand what it’s like to be deployed that long than folks who are used to landlords slapping a coat of paint on something and pretending they totally rebuilt it, brand new.

Both are enormously disrespectful. Trump doesn’t give two shits about the people, the money, or the equipment he burns on this giant Epstein file distraction.

It’s unfortunately sustainable because people buy things they like before things they need.

For all of us, for everyone 1 person we know who has a decent job and loves to play games they buy with disposable income, we probably know 5 who shouldn’t buy the game they’re buying because they’re already behind on their sewer bill.
