The Right are denying scientific consensus on anything that doesn’t make them money or own the libs.

Forget the “social economics” which is also bunk, because the majority of Americans want lower healthcare costs, gun control, freedom of choice, better economic equality, and better education.

These are all things the right (and written down in Project 2025 btw).

If Mr. Beast knew anything, he’d claim to work with the popular majority, but he’s been trained by social media that controversy equals popularity. Basically it’s an algorithmic version of “no such thing as bad press”. So he won’t do the best thing for the world, he’ll do whatever he thinks will be a net gain in popularity. Which is why he said what he said, so he doesn’t lose and right wing viewers of his clickbate.

They didn’t say centrists bad, they said arguing for compromise with bad actors (those that deny provable facts) is bad.

You can buy medical debt, that has lots negative of value to the indebted.

Me too. I was trying to find a connection between top and a phish song, or Vermont or something.

Might have ducked all our schools at once with his actions. Thankfully the polling hasn’t shown it helped trumps bottom line yet.

All those morons wearing maxi pads on their ears is an added bonus.

Is it that, or is it because they’re still using old pirated copies of XP everywhere, so they don’t have to worry about broken updates?

Yeah, and if you move the cursor convincingly enough, it will just give the check mark without showing any pictures.

It starts checking your browser, input devices, screen info, etc, before you even click the are you human box.

I suspect it knows you’re human and keeps track of those people who are good at clicking the image, so they can harvest more training data. They know who will keep trying, and give them more images to verify.

Mac users are here, bu I get all my stuff from MSJ, is a lot faster and has been going for decades, so I find it more trustworthy.

I was on brokenstones for a long time too, but stopped a bit before it imploded worth a bad admin or moderator recently.

Are pumpkin/banana/zucchini breads still bread in this definition?

Yeah I’m far more worried capitalist tech morons ending humanity, than I am about AI deciding to off us.

It still might, but only if you invest in my Wooshcoin.

Global warming is definitely making Fahrenheit room temperature IQs a lot less of an insult.

Our house has been in the mid 80s all week.

I wondered if that was the trigger or just a symptom. I suspect, given his upbringing and previous reputation from other startups, it was just a symptom.

But then they really have no idea and try to convince you it’s from some stupid diet trick fed to them by a sponsor.

We’re still on the timeline for a New New York I think.

This has graphic design intern written all over it.

Source: was a graphic design intern many moons ago and did terrible work for bad clients early on.

A local icecream place that also had goats and ducks was fucking setting them off right over the goat pen. They were sprinting from shelter to shelter inbetween explosions.

I don’t plan on going back there now. It’s a shame because it’s one of the better shops nearby.

I’m kind of coming around on the idea of liberal/progressive gun ownership. Maybe we should start hitting the gun shows and buying them off the cons. If we have enough to scare them, maybe we can get some sensible gun laws passed too, then turn them all in like Australia did.

But only if we can follow the example of Swiss-like compulsory service and training. I have some liberal friends who I do not want handling guns.

Edit to add: I have some conservative acquaintances that also shouldn’t be anywhere near firearms either, but of course they already own dozens.

What about Sneakers? Or maybe The Net?

If it’s not in those surely it must have been in NCIS a few dozen times.

Fricken, better.
