You know that fire doesn't actually know how to cook? Like, it isn't a real cook?

it just heats up the atoms. cooking involves skill and human touch /s

Also they don’t think fire can cook their food

Are they aware that LAX airport isn't under any jurisdiction of the Mayor of Los Angeles? There isn't a single thing she can do about cargo moving through the airport beyond sending street maintenance crews to tear up the roads outside the airport and piss off everyone

Yes agree, that's insightful in fact cos I think I would have missed the obvious parallel so ty!

Because it's now always tempting for them to draw attention to him being cool in the hopes that it will annoy you as much as that very fact enrages them. This has the potential to backfire. In my own little way I suspect my philosophy career benefited from some similar effects at times.

It's kind of an interesting phenomenon how "talented orator and politician from despised minority group" breaks certain kinda brains. Because, I guess, for them the very fact that he is talented is what bothers them, that's precisely why he gets under their skin so much. And therein lies a trap.

New: Mayor Zohran Mamdani and a group of his friends have been secretly using the NYPD Police Academy’s gymnasium in Queens to play pickup basketball — scrambling some operations at the facility. w/ @grahamrayman.bsky.social & Joe Anuta www.politico.com/news/2026/10...

I didn't initially realise this was meant to be a negative thing, but when you read the piece it obviously was. Their attempt at a political hit job is quite literally to tell you that Mamdani is baller, and to connect him in your minds with Knicks' victory. Astonishing stuff, let's see how it goes.

One evening, all the C^k functions are drinking at a bar. The derivative walks in and starts differentiating indiscriminately. Everyone panics and runs, except one function, which keeps sipping its beer. The derivative asks, “Who the fuck are you?” “I am the exponential,” the function replies.

This is like the CIA funding expressionism: it would've happened anyways, the money is just extra lubricant.

Reminder that the CIA canonically paid Lucy to psychologically torture Charlie Brown.

Not helpful, Boo.

There’s so much crap out there and I’m not an expert. What is the best form of therapy for severe OCD that’s becoming kind of life ruining?

Pollsters will literally sit there and tell you "we took a poll and it showed the Democrat winning, but then we interpreted the data to assume more Republicans would vote and you are *never* going to believe this but it made the results a lot closer" and none of them get punched in the face for it.

imagine your car breaking down. now imagine your flying car breaking down

the day i realized flying cars would, at some point, mean a pile of cars careening down onto the ground at 200mph was maybe the worst day of my life

when marxist-leninists gain power in coalition with non-ML socialists, their historical *first* action is to purge the non-ML socialists.

you cannot trust marxist-leninists. marxism-leninism structurally selects for either ignorant or immoral people (specifically people willing to ignore its grave historical crimes). also its *founding organizational tenet* (democratic centralism) structurally selects for dishonesty and entryism

harrington was right, you all fucked up by allowing marxist-leninists and other ultras into your organization

From the outside, a lot of DSA internal politics these days looks like a clash between people who are becoming increasingly successful at democratic politics and people who want to act like authoritarians despite having no actual authority

That folks on both ends of the political spectrum have bought into the myth that the Tea Party was a genuine grassroots movement concerned with material stability, and not an astroturfed campaign to redefine anything the govt did to assist non-white citizens as "theft", is a cultural coup.

One of the lesser known outlaws of the Old West was Rufus Nephew, aka Climax Jim. That's unfortunate because the man's life was a never ending series of crimes, arrests, acquittals, convictions & daring escapes. Here's a sampling of some of his very stupid adventures... 🧵
