Tesla is a perfect example of everything wrong with poorly regulated capitalism.
If you're worried your cuck truck wankpanzer might explode like others have, then good news! Instead of recalling his shitty deathtrap, he will sell you a shield for only $3500! Better yet, just let it blow up. At Tesla HQ. fuelarc.com/evs/3-cybert...

I hope they let some vietnam vets drive tanks through both this and his fucking ballroom abomination when he's finally gone. Preferably with his coffin in the path of the tank as well. Fuck him
While hardworking Americans are struggling to pay for food, housing, and healthcare and American service members are putting their lives on the line—this guy is over here building an arch to himself in front of Arlington National Cemetery. Disgraceful.
Data centers use a fuck ton of water. How much depends on size and design. At present in the US, a mid size data center uses roughly 300k gallons per year. About the same amount as a smallish city. The average mega data center uses that much in a few hours.
Lutnick: "Data centers don't use water. This is propaganda by our adversaries to try to slow us down." (Note the complete lack of pushback from the hosts of Squawk Box, which is basically Fox & Friends lite)
One more thought on Dolly: Instead of desparing that shes gone, we should take this as motivation to try to live like she did. Take no shit. Call out hypocrites. Help everyone (full stop). Try to leave the world better than you came into it.
"Is it easy? No it ain’t Can I fix it? No I cain’t But I sure ain’t gonna take it lyin’ down!" - Dolly Parton
When Robin Williams died, my first reaction was that it had to be a hoax. I felt the same when i heard the news about Dolly. Regardless of how you feel about her music, she was so widely loved for good reason. I cannot find a single example of her being anything other than a genuinely good person.

FUCKING VOTE! Stop your protest non-voting. Not voting because you dont think any of the candidates are great is handing the W to the Rs. Pick the candidate thats closest to your values and VOTE
If you're not motivated already, maybe this 👇will do it for you. I'm stilled pissed off at the people who didn't vote in 2024 or voted 3rd party, so excuse me for being bitchy (not).
This just in: people that voted for Dump are viewed as meaningless pawns to Dump. Dump apparently has never played chess against someone that actually knows how to play
Mark Carney: "It's not a surprise that the US would take some form of reprisal to our response to their unjustified tariffs, which was on top of other unjustified tariffs. But what message does that send to the workers in Michigan and Ohio and Kentucky and Alabama who rely on Canadian demand?"
Cant wait for the anti-vaxers to spin this. Personally im here for it!
🚨 BREAKTHROUGH: Two Canadian Scientists Develop an Inhaled Vaccine Mist That Delivers Immunity Directly to the Lungs, Right Where Viruses Enter Two scientists, Fiona Smaill and Zhou Xing, developed AeroVax, an inhaled vaccine mist designed to reach the lungs in just 2 minutes.
Good for Canada. Fuck the turd
BREAKING: Canadian PM Mark Carney suspends all trade negotiations with the U.S. after “unfair, uneconomic” last-minute changes to the deal. At midnight the U.S. will implement a 50% tariff on ~$28 billion of Canadian goods, and now, Canada will match it dollar-for-dollar.
I refuse to give space X my time. I say that as someone that spent the majority of my childhood working towards the goal of being the pilot of a space shuttle. Then i wanted to design spacecraft. For NASA. Fuck the private space industry. It needs to be ripped to the ground. Permanently.
Im getting really tired of saying "monopolies are bad", only to have people (on both sides of the aisle no less) tell me im wrong...only for me to be proven right. Does no one read history?
The Paramount–Warner Bros. merger could eliminate around 4,500 film and television jobs in Los Angeles over three years, according to a new county report. • LA production has already lost 52,000 jobs since 2022 • The economic ripple effect could put 10,360 jobs at risk overall
Jefferies wants to be primaried. That's the only reason i can think of for this
Jeffries stop short of committing to holding a vote to abolish ICE is he's House Speaker next January, but says he's "committed to dramatically reforming ICE ... the masks should come off, body cameras should come on, judicial warrants should be required."
This is even dumber than his battleshits. There's a reason we changed the design. For modern super carriers its stupid
“The Navy is considering a major redesign of its new aircraft carriers to better match President Trump’s preferred aesthetic for the warships … Trump’s preference, current and former officials said, is for the new aircraft carriers to look more like those that were in service during World War II.”
We should have learned this after the covid fiasco.
"Replacing Trump’s health officials won’t be enough. Rebuilding America’s public-health system means restoring scientific expertise—and creating safeguards that can survive the next administration willing to ignore it." www.damemagazine.com/2026/08/12/r...
