This guy is smart. Canada has cheap prescriptions because there’s only one purchaser and they have a 40 million person market they supply, so OF COURSE they can negotiate lower prices. This is exactly why the pharma lobby convinced Republicans to prohibit that in the USA.

Better reasons than mine but same rationale for why I’ve never finished Elden Ring or Clair Obscur and why last night I turned down the difficulty on Blood of the Dawnwalker to Story Mode. It’s okay to like what you like, or to like it how you like it.

Putting down a marker for future “I told you so” “you were wrong again” purposes: if we see a Blue Wave next month, that will start rumblings on the Republican side to go 25th Amendment or resignation so (in their mind) Vance has a better chance in 2028.

These are the moments when I’m glad to know from my friends who are big Dem donors that even they don’t want him as the nominee because they’re concerned that Kimberley Guilfoyle has an October Surprise in her pocket from back when they were married.

Just started Blood of Dawnwalker. Not sure how I feel about this QWOP-ass combat mechanic.

This reminds… whenever men talk about “natural instincts” or similar fuckery I usually respond by asking how they get through life without having been toilet trained, if they can’t control their instincts. They usually dispute the premise which to me proves my point.

In case anyone wasn't clear that all the AI apocalypticism was a smokescreen to cover for wanting to delay their IPOs, here's your most recent proof. Not a gift link because the headline says it all.

This is as “official” as when a fucking 17 year old on TikTok describes something as “officially the best latte in LA”.

This is an entirely correct take. Trump has allowed us to discover how much of American governance is reliant upon norms, and to a bad person norms are nothing but requests from the past. You can ignore a request.

The replies and quotes of this are a dizzying combination of people entirely unable to understand that skeets that perfectly describe them are not specifically targeted directly at them, and people sputteringly angry that they’re being accurately described.

This leads into a lot of my perhaps surprisingly overdeveloped opinions about the modern university that will be tough to lay out in 300 character chunks. I’ll do my best, because I’m an egomaniac and think you might care, but if I make no sense I did warn you beforehand at least.

The last sentence of this thread is my experience On Here quite often. I make regular disparaging comments about the lack of reading comprehension On Here and this is usually what I mean: knowing how a thing works doesn’t mean you like its working that way. Ms Weikal is a good’un for what she does.

I didn’t speak to my super racist father for the last 15 years of his life. That said, I didn’t know where he lived. After I did my parents’ divorce, he went off the grid to avoid paying spousal support. My mother asked me not to track him down for the money so I didn’t.

This thread explains one of the great mysteries of travel: why there are hundreds of signs all over Heathrow threatening you with criminal prosecution if you assault or harass airline or airport staff. Everyone in this story except Ms Jeong needs a beating.

If we’re going to be doing dumb bullshit anyway and blocking the people who earn it from making money, might as well fix this too.

This thread is correct but elides what I think is the real issue underlying “prediction markets”. They exist in a minorly grey zone because federal legislation defines derivatives trading so loosely that you can in fact create a derivative of anything and trade that derivative off-exchange.

I always thought this was the reason Musk was willing to do DOGE: so he could get the data set for Grok in order to make it the AI that would run air traffic control on a no-bid contract.

Speaking of working stiff, flight to Austin this morning. Some kid in front of me at the pancake machine in the Alaska lounge was just hammering the button: “DAD! They’re not coming out!” Uh, gotta make them first, sport. He ended up with 12 pancakes. Xmas came early!

I remain baffled that Sevens rugby isn’t more popular in the USA because of this. Everything that’s dangerous in collusion sports is also a penalty in rugby, and the fact that you play both sides of the ball means you don’t do dangerous shit because it can all be done to you.

That last sentence is 1 of my 2 rules of wine pairing. The other: the darker the food, the darker the wine. Both of these subordinate to my wife’s rule: drink what you like. You want white with a steak? Then you want that and you should have it. And she’s a retired sommelière, so she knows her stuff

What she said. Part of this thread is a solid explanation of a thing I also believe: cultural products can only benefit by a strong DEI perspective, because everyone should get to see themselves in the things they enjoy.

Dr Williams comes closest to landing on what I think is the real purpose of Tilly Norwood, and why they’re getting so many news orgs to “interview” “her”. I think the endgame for this is that the backers want to position “her” to replace news anchors.

Rogan is Left in exactly the same way and just as little as Bill Maher: he hopes it’ll get him new fans. I miss the Rogan who busted Carlos Mencia for joke stealing. That guy did good work.
