Every year I become more convinced that the US is one big Kardashianesque reality TV show that the rest of the world only watches because it affects us Because just like the Kardashians, the US as a whole has too much money and power I'm actually really glad that in the last few years we have

seen evidence that these intimidating "super-powers" are actually quite weak Russia turned a 3-day "special operation" into a war that had them sending soldiers to the battlefield on soviet-era motorbikes US tarrifs quickly came back to bite it in the ass Europe is starting to defend its

economy from both China and the US and focusing more on its own production while also working on becoming independent in communication technology (see the outcome of the recent Starlink outage ordered by Musk & Trump)

You can't sell food or clothes with AI ads for the same reason you can't sell them with animation or drawings: people want to see the real thing. If you can't even *pretend to put your real actual product in your ad, what the fuck are you doing? *the real food in ads is/was not actual food either

They simply refuse to ditch the For You algorithm. Even for children. Let the kids follow and see only what they know and like. Fuck it, make it that way for EVERYONE, like it was Not that I'd ever use Meta again anyway I just want it to stop fucking up my elections

What do you think will make companies panic worse? If I disable AI stuff in their apps and on their websites or if I leave them there and simply don't use them? I'm thinking the latter says "I give so few fucks about your shit that I see it daily and it still doesn't tempt me" Yes. That's good.

The paw stays until the door is in contact with the paw There is no need to move the paw out of unoccupied space When you think about it, they're only being reasonable. They're really a facts-based pet

I secretly hope no one adopts my three kittens I publicly suck at taking care of them... ...except for feeding them One of them in particular is... let's say winter-ready I call him Hunter He's taken down my whole fridge and three aisles of cat food at the supermarket Top of the food chain

Tucker: “I never understood why 🇬🇧 fought World War 2?” 😕 Rees-Mogg: “It was good vs. evil…We did the right thing…” Tucker: “Has 🇬🇧 benefitted?” RM: “We defeated Hitler… We’d all be speaking German…” Tucker: “Who cares?” 🤔

The new Queens of the Stage stuff is real good QotSA have such a timeless sound. Even when they're being undeniably themselves, it doesn't get old. You never get tired of it. It's just odd enough to last them a whole career

Hi My life changes radically every couple of years because I'm broke and mentally ill and the world is designed to eject people like me Not cause I'm interesting and creative Just wanted to leave this here in case someone romanticizes me dying in a tent from pneumonia in the Carpathians in 2037

Aaaaaand the leader of the agitators was a Georgescu supporter. Shocker! I'm right again.

Farmers are protesting in Bucharest A bunch of agitators started fights How do you say "Take the money Putin gave you and fuck off to Moscow" in Russian ? I just wanna make sure they understand

You did an internet search You clicked a link What part of "you are going to be redirected 20 times and have ads surgically implanted into your brain" did you not understand? If you didn't want this, you shouldn't have searched anything People are so entitled nowadays Now back to work!

I hate null days Those days you're so worn out or sick you do nothing You don't work You don't do chores You don't relax You don't even watch tv Just nothing. A total waste. Just waiting for the night

All pornography is entirely illegal in Ukraine. Now a Ukrainian MP is campaigning to legalize it to generate $25 million per year in taxes, which could be used to purchase 30,000 drones In Ukraine, you don't free the nipple. The nipple frees you!

Germany's AfD wants immigrant children to be segregated in schools and children with learning disablities to go to "special" schools But listen... don't you go around saying AfD are just nazis with a different name. Cause that would be mean.

Trump was caught. They let him run. Le Pen was caught. They're letting her run. Farage was caught. They will let him run, I'm sure. I have lost all hope. Don't even bother giving me the good news.

Names for white cat: 1. Snowball - tempting, but unoriginal 2. Privilege - politcal, hilarious, but gets old quick 3. Frosty - too... holiday-themed So I'm gonna name her Phoebe, after Phoebe Bridgers, cause her hair is white and she doesn't take shit from anybody

Cadette (feral cat, not particularly attached to humans) left her kittens about a week ago They used to not come too close to me Now that their mom is not influencing them anymore, they're my absolute best buds. They do the thing where they put their paw on your to ask you to pet them more. Epic.

It's also been suggested to me that a feral dog might have eaten her, but one of those fellas snuck into my yard once and sat with the cats, so probably not... The feral dogs have been shockingly chill. I knew they were here, literally geared up to face them. Nope. No danger.

Two interesting things about this small town: - there's both feral dogs and feral cats, so they grow up around each other (which makes them less likely to fight, from what I've read) - all these animals aren't afraid of fireworks because of the venues here having displays every weekend for events

Sucks not knowing where on earth Cadette went but... hell.. I never knew where she came from either, so... that queen is probably somewhere out there giving zero fucks (about people, and giving lots of fucks to other cats, cause she got away intact. Whoops)

My only regret about having three kittens is that I don't have three hands It's a problem I'm always petting two cats while a third is crawling up my arm for attention Sometimes I manage to scoop two pairs of cat ears in one hand as a temporary fix. That is my greatest achievement thus far.
