So grok talked Trump into war. Chatgpt created Trump's tariff policy. AI choose Trump's targets in Iran. Had anyone bothered to ask the guy why he is collecting a $400k salary (plus grift) when AI is doing all the work? Why would the GOP nominate Vance or Rubio when AI is an option?

Frankly I think the bottom that anyone NEEDS a billion dollars is far more extreme than the opposite... But I guess if Fox news says that's what i need then it's time for me to seize a billion dollars from someone who has a billion dollars... Wonder if they also think I should eat the rich after...

"If I wasn't doing a good job, I wouldn't have won that election by a lot." The "job" trump was doing when he "won that election" was being convicted of 34 felony counts, and being called a rapist by a judge.

The Nazi enablers turning on the Nazis not because of the whole Nazism thing, though that's the official stance, but because the Nazis aren't as popular as they hoped they'd be. Make no mistake if these folks were polling well no one would care about their "moral failing".

Sat down to tighten everything on the ebike (it's time for it's break in tune up) Rear spokes all feel like they could use an additional half turn, but my spoke wrench doesn't fit... Who has ever heard of a #3 spoke wrench!?! New wrench ordered... And everything else tightened in the mean time.

I mean Nelson Mandela did have some thoughts about human rights and equality for all. Genghis Khan outlawed homosexuality, I don't know much about his views on transgender. JKs view probably align closer to Khan... The warlord and rapist. Maybe not a great thing to remind the world of.

Bring purple stuff to you job interview, offer to share, odds are good middle management/hiring managers are old enough to get the joke and will find it endearing so long as you don't point out that the commercial stopped being aired before you were born.

Last year there were not a lot of ebikes on the ~50 mile route*, plenty on the shared portions of the route. I don't know anything about charging availability I wasn't looking for it, but even if there are a few plugs I wouldn't count on them being available with all the bikes there.

Reading this I initially assumed the "R" word in question was "Racist"... I mean why else would we care what those "on the right" (Republicans, another R word) thought unless it was a slur against them? I mean if every black person suddenly became fine with the "N" word that'd be news, right?

It's actually kind of impressive he didn't rename it "America intelligence" Though maybe someone pointed out that all the other countries already use that as the punch line to all their jokes.

Waiting for the "we gave AI an IQ test (Trump's favorite measure of intelligence after the "name that animal" cognitive test) and the v results were [higher/lower] than Trump's suspected IQ." Articles to start being written. Either way works now that he has announced his superior AI is.

After 9/11 Bush jr told us to shop. During WWII FDR told us to grow victory gardens and collect aluminum for the war effort. During the war to distract from the Epstein files Trump tells Americans to pay no attention to the man behind the curtain, just act normal in these unusual times.

40mpg shouldn't be a high efficiency vehicle in 2026, average for new cars should be like 46mpg at this point! *Listens to ear piece* I've just been informed Obama era efficiency standards were rolled back and actual average is 27mpg. At least many of us are working remote most of the time-
