Is drug trafficking profitable enough to make it worthwhile for larger drug boats to mount AA radar and MANPADs? Shooting down a few expensive Predators would likely change policy in a hurry.

This seems bad, but it's not like the Biden administration was moving all that aggressively to reduce carbon emissions, and a Harris admin would have continued that pattern. So we would still be fucked, but with saner rhetoric.

What if Tom Keane is a species of ERA that needs a specially designed humatard, and the one it was wearing broke and a replacement wasn't available within 50 LY so it had to be shipped from the galactic core all the way out to the rim, which took a few months, even at warp 9?

Of all the people Americans should feel sympathy for, Comey should be at the very bottom of the list. Maybe not even on the list. Fuck that guy.

If you're a vocal critic of the Trump regime, and they declare you're helping undocumented immigrants and shut down your bank accounts. What are you going to do? www.yahoo.com/finance/econ... So so glad that a majority of white people voted their conscience to keep a Black woman from being POTUS

Would the fraction of men's phones that have the peach/eggplant emojis in their "frequently used" list be larger, smaller, or the same as the fraction of women's phones that have the peach/eggplant emojis in their "frequently used" list?

Sometimes I look back and think "nothing I did made any difference at all, what a waste." And then I think of all the money poured into BMD, and what was achieved, and I feel better about my research. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_...

So "There is no Antimemetics Division" is on lists of best science fiction of 2025, but I bought a copy in 2021. I feel like I entered a chronosynclastic infindibulum, or shifted timelines.

We did not "elect a con man" twice. White people "preferred a con man over a woman, especially a Black woman" twice. If the Democrats had run a mediocre white man each time, we wouldn't be in this jackpot. We'd still be fucked, but in a different way.

Why higher education is fucked up: A student just emailed me they had to drop because financial aid wouldn't cover them taking a course. So their whole academic program is delayed while they save money for tuition. But they're having to retake the course because they got a 2.9 and 3.0 is required

I went to a conference on mine warfare once, and the people there are probably all like "Nobody learned anything from Wonsan and we *warned* them over and over and over they needed minesweepers."

I'm tired of reading how Putin is a master manipulator. He's an incompetent buffoon who has gotten a million of his soldiers killed or wounded. The only people he can manipulate are weak men who can't keep their dick in their pants and are too stupid to recognize honeypot traps.
