"Once men turned their thinking over to machines in the hope that this would set them free. But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them." Frank Herbert, 1965

Frankly this explanation gives them more credit than they deserve

The only reason I can think of for this news not being absolutely everywhere is that large media orgs don’t want to be seen as putting their thumbs on the scales a week before election day. And that’s cowardly as shit.

Interesting fact about this is no he absolutely did not win MN, but lost the state 3 times, against 3 different democrats, decisively each time. Biden beat him by over 7%

The PURL program works like this: Ukraine makes a list of needed military stuff (it's where ~all the ground defense missiles come from) and then NATO governments contribute money to BUY THEM from the US. That has happened, but the US won't authorize the transfer of the missiles! Wild

The elites dropping unprecedented sums on an election is starting to look an enough rope situation. I can see 3 ways this works out for republicans: 1.They're actually brilliant and they're losing on purpose as part of a strategy to move on from the senile guy everyone hates 2.They cheat 3.Both

"You don't turn the Titanic around overnight" has been really bugging me because a) yes you can and b) you definitely should, that was the main problem

The kids’ changing tastes are reordering every facet of society. The gumball machine in the strange & barren entryway of the grocery store was dispensing pearl onions.

The French revolution happened because life became impossible. The elites are preparing to defend themselves at the moment our lives are impossible. They're putting all their resources into not needing other humans anymore, and then they'll just need a few robot guard dogs around their compounds

Not to worry Stephen, if they get their hands on you, the Hague isn't going to imprison you

Miller deserves everything that's coming. He's afraid of state prosecutors because a presidential pardon only covers federal offenses; and beyond prison, there's also future congressional investigations and civil lawsuits. www.rawstory.com/rs-exclusive...

As someone who’s always been artistically gifted, I always make a point to carve at least one pumpkin per year to really humble myself and put my limitations into context

Over the course of the last 20 years, Barack Obama has gone from seeming 20 years younger than me to seeming 20 years older than me, which is going to be really embarrassing when he lives 20 years longer than me

The Government™ has made an ad about all these protests happening around the world, and it’s surprisingly honest and informative.

Trying so hard yet failing to just enjoy it when somebody makes a joke post about a song from the previous century and somebody else comes in with "actually that's like a serious problem, lemme raise your awareness a bit here"

We say "the human heart" when we want to discuss it as a collective abstract but if we do not individually and concretely talk about collective abstract health it'll DIE
