Liberals say that Trump and his band of drunks, sex abusers, and white nationalists have put our democracy at risk. They're wrong—Trump and his band of drunks, sex abusers, and white nationalists have put our republic at risk.

3 things about Dem politicians who dabble in transphobia: 1. It's wrong, they're wrong, on a moral basis they're being evil 2. It's stupid, they're stupid, they'll never get any credit from the fascists for it 3. It's proof you're not capable of reading or rising to this, and therefore any, moment

I’m confused about the target valuations for the AI labs. SpaceX at least owns the compute; that’s what they’re going to charge for. So even though their business plan is wildly ambitious (diplomatically) there *is* a plan. What do the AI labs own?

It is extremely funny to me how the mortgage industry heavily boosted Trump in 2024 and were convinced he would result in lower interest rates. Idiots!
