You have staffers to know about sports and stuff so you don’t get embarrassed like this. The problem with hiring groypers is that all of their normal guy knowledge has been removed and replaced with theories about skull shapes.

9 Translated from Ukrainian by Grok
In Oleshky, the Armed Forces of Ukraine dropped 4 tons of food supplies at night. A photo from an Oleshky resident—she found a box in her garden in the morning. She says it was scary at night; drones were flying low. She woke up—her heart was pounding, hid against the wall. And in the morning, such a find: canned fish, canned meat, oil, sugar, grains.

4. Delete Gemini History If you've used Gemini before, your chats may be saved, and some could be reviewed by humans. Go to myactivity.google.com/product/gemini → Turn off Gemini Apps Activity → Delete Activity → All Time. This removes your past Gemini history & stops future chats from being saved

2. The Hidden Switch Turning off the first setting isn't enough. Most people stop there. On the same settings page: Google Workspace smart features → Manage Workspace smart feature settings → Turn off both checkboxes → Save. Both settings need to be turned off.

If it looks like an Amazon delivery and drives like an Amazon delivery, then it's an Amazon delivery, right? Not according to Amazon. Big companies like Amazon have built a vast network of subcontractors who deliver their packages while shielding them from accountability.

Mitch McConnell's team reached out to me earlier today — through an intermediary, of course — asking me to take this down. I won't. I don't bend the knee. And if they don't like having their name and face attached to it, maybe they should ask themselves why that is.
