Fascinating. The Guardian in the UK and other major newspapers across Europe have a ton of coverage of the protests in the US. The New York Times? Next to nothing. That's not journalism, just preemptive capitulation and obsequiousness. Cowardice.

I mean...

He pronounced bomb wrong

I didn't know losing an eye not only affected your depth perception but also apparently destroyed your bullshit detector. You learn something new every day I suppose.

"Measles however, will be allowed. Everywhere."

Ok so she WAS here. Mea culpa, mea maxima culpa. Stop bothering me, I have a triangle to watch. Or a pyramid. Or a dimaryp!

Oh look, a new contrapoints (I have no idea if she's on bluesky, leave me alone, I have stuff to watch now). www.youtube.com/watch?v=teqk...

As much as I appreciate the advice: this is dystopian stuff.

It's not the fall that kills you, it's the landing.

So JD Vance is out?

Imagine a society where everyone pays what they can and receives what they need. Healthcare. Childcare. Education. A society without billionaires. Who needs more than 50 MUSD? It's just dick measuring beyond that point that just leads to the destruction of democracy through wealth disparity.

"Incompatible migrants". Julius Streicher Vance is certainly showing his brown underpants. I mean shirt. And underpants.

Realistically none because they wouldn't be able to cast a vote in the presidential election otherwise. Stop blaming the palestinians for the failure of the democrats.

Boycotts > tariffs.

I wonder when NZ will just tell foreign billionaires to fuck off and eminent domain the hell out of everything they bought up over the years. Looking at you Peter Thiel.

Normal democracy. Please tell us more about how Europe is a totalitarian hellscape.

An IQ as high as the number of bottles of champagne produced in USA.

If the entire world is your enemy (except authoritarians) you have a problem. You see, very few things the US - THE ACTUAL US - produces are irreplaceable. The chips and cellphones are made in Asia. Best of luck when the boycotts bite.

I wonder if TSLA isn't currently being kept above 0 by short covers.

Sane?

Tell us more about your bullshit casus belli, dear Dive Bar Dictator.

Elon is smart but smart people just make exponentially more stupid mistakes, especially when they become convinced they are infallible. And that's Elon now - inherently incapable of understanding his limits and therefore an existential danger to his companies and to the US.

"I could've been a physicist", says man who couldn't pass basic match apparently. Because theoretical physics is famously not about math at all. E=whatever really.

Elon Musk - Ayn Rand fan fiction wombat.

Hear that, MAGA voters dependant on subsidies, social security and other kinds of government largesse, it's not good for you. The Reichsarbeitsdienst is coming and you will love it. Someone has to work the farms you lost after all.

We kill several children every day with our "savings".

"Who cares about your 401k, we shorted the market and made a killing YOLO."

Never catch a falling knife children.

So what's the over-under on when Elon goes full Howard Hughes? My guess is that we will be entering the urine bottle era in late April.

WE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN AT WAR WITH SYNTAX ERROR

Just normal people debating normal things.

Say what you will about the Chinese but Wang Yi runs circles around little Marco. From a press conference earlier: “Small Yard, High Fence” cannot stifle innovative thinking, and decoupling or cutting off chains will ultimately isolate oneself.

I know pornography when I see it and yeah, I see it.

"This job is too hard, I'd like to be much less influential."

“We are so numerous that we are starving. Therefore we must encourage still larger families so as to become yet more numerous and starving. [Then] we shall have a right to take other people’s stores of seed. Besides, we shall by then have a numerous and starving army.” T.H. White

The new U.S. - preemptive surrender monkeys.

I mean, maybe he's not up on anti-mercantilist critiques. I mean they just go back to *checks notes* Adam Smith.

Thing DJT could have mentioned in the SOTA: he managed to make Doug Ford seem almost sympathetic. Not quite, but you know. Almost.

This is some Baghdad Bob shit right here.

If you believe this nonsense then I have some prime real estate on Venus for sale, you'll make 125K after all, why not get a sweet sweet prime location on the hottest little planet in the neighbourhood.

How to tell everyone you're a snivelling spineless toad without spelling it out.
