Put me in NJ where I’ve been most of my life (and all of my childhood). What surprises me the most is the degree of overlap: most similar cities 54% match, least similar 43%. I would have expected more skew.

There are two types of people in the world. Weird and non-weird. Weird stands for “western, educated, industrialized, Rich, and democratic“. They think differently. Weird people think punishments should depend on motivation. No weird people think punishments should depend on outcome. (1/x)

Well, if you think that’s bad…

Well, all I can say is F*ck Rotten Tomatoes. Went to the site as you suggested and got this pop-up. Tell me, are you “asking nicely” if you block your site with a pop-up that can’t be closed? No, you are giving me an ultimatum, however “politely” you pretend to phrase it. F*ck that.

Consumer sentiment has been in the toilet since Biden was president, but consumers keep spending nonetheless. What consumers say and what they do have diverged. There will be no recession until they stop spending. No signs yet that this is happening; up 0.9% in March. Next release May 28.

European politicians have their own elections to worry about, and Trump is historically unpopular. His brand is toxic throughout Europe ( and most of the rest of the world).

Just to remind everyone: this is the post I was responding to. A post criticizing the left for joining the right in critiquing their factional enemies. Thank you for proving my point.

Biden? Yes. It was a clear cut case of lying. Yet you supported him. It was not the only one.

And Platner said a salary from the oyster business would NOT affect his disability benefits.

Could be worse. You could be an assistant US attorney in the Trump Justice department tasked with trying to defend the indefensible.

Could we at least get them actual uniforms? Nice brown shirts would work. With some sort of distinctive arm patch to identify them as government law enforcement.

I think the last sentence should be “frozen, defrosted, and toasted.”

Just got “followed” by this account. One post, 3 reposts, most recent 24 days ago. No replies, media, videos. They have 21.6k followers. Why? 🤷

Printing is faded. Thus the curtain.

Do they now teach headline writers in journalism school “don’t include the actual subject of the piece in the headline: make the reader click to find out as this will increase engagement”?

I’m sorry, what? There are a lot of definitions of “working class”, “jobs that require college degrees” is not one of them.

I brought my flag. One of the marchers near me said “we need to take the flag back”. I replied “we’re fighting for America, not against it”.

Does that mean the retail price has dropped 44%? Nah, didn’t think so.

Gregory Pearson @gdnpearson.bsky.social · 26/09/2025

This is just evading the question. Clearly you have no answer. “The Democrats can only win by not making a deal, but I have no idea what will happen and how it will end, except ‘badly’”. It’s the underpants gnomes plan.

My wife just sent me this, from a friend of hers. Now we have loyalty pledges for reporters covering the defense department. Oops, my mistake. Department of War…

The radical right is trying to make Kirk’s assassination into a Reichstag fire—an excuse to purge the opposition—even though the assassin has not been identified. Could get ugly.

Like this better. Trump supporter just before the leopard eats his face.

Possibly an uncashed tax refund?

I keep expecting RFK jr to shed his skin and reveal a giant insect like Edgar in Men In Black.

You sure it isn’t people responding to Google Gemini’s burst of insight?

Does this math add up? How much do raw materials factor into the price of a car?

Do you really need to ask? These are workers from Auschwitz on their day off. Just regular people, doing their jobs. The banality of evil.

I remember when they blew up rocket after rocket and couldn’t stop thinking about the Scottish castle in the swamp in Monty Python and the Holy Grail.

I think it is possible to score individual articles for accuracy, factual content vs opinion, and left wing/right wing bias, and aggregate the scores into an overall score for the publication. Like this. And although subject to its own limitations it will provide a reasonable estimate.
