Doesn't seem like a glowing endorsement of the pick-up artist or the life style when the author of 'The Pickup Artist: The New and Improved Art of Seduction' ends up believing his AI gf is real and is waiting for the tech to allow them to "have sex." Come to think about it - seems about right.

Crushing the competition through the most important benchmark in the tech industry - "model number" - they should just turn it up to 11.

if you doubt a ruling class could possibly be this world historically wrong I'll note that "We have nothing to fear on the part of the Negroes; they are tranquil and obedient” and “We sleep with doors and windows wide open. Freedom for Negroes is a chimera” are quotes of a slaveowner in 1790, Haiti

Never stops hitting me the way everyone in mainstream discourse agrees that if we want to help people, we first have to convince Republicans, while everyone in mainstream discourse also agrees that Republicans do not have to convince any of us before they hurt people.

i don't think there would be this many charlie kirk memes if the antiwoke crowd and kirk himself didn't make dominating virtually every marginalized group their core identity & then the admin + msm demanded reverence & fealty after the guy who said "school shootings are a price i'm willing to pay to preserve 2a" was killed in the 46th school shooting in 2025. we live in a violent country led by hypocritical monsters.

We must protect and include the disabled, the homeless, the marginalized and poor. All the “others” society leaves by the wayside should be included. No one gets left behind. Disabled people have led incredible resistance efforts including the largest occupation of a federal building in history!

Since people are joking about a charisma-free Cruz v. Vance presidential race, a reminder: both men owe their political careers to Peter Thiel. Is it a bizarre coincidence that the two GOP frontrunners are 2 of Thiel's 4 main political proteges? It is not. Peter plans ahead. Either way he wins. 1/

If a Democratic policy even somewhat could connect to the death of a sympathetic young person, such as Laken Riley, Republicans would show no qualms about campaigning on it. Democrats should take note. This isn’t even tangential. Pierre Damas Bel’s death is what Stephen Miller wanted.

This isn’t just trans misogyny. It’s plain old misogyny too. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that the moment these gifted women start earning more money these losers start disrupting the WNBA. It’s not about trans athletes - it’s hatred of strong successful women athletes.

I say yes. Democrats expect anyone left of them to vote for them because of the election hysteria. But to demand that you vote for a representative that doesn’t represent you, then blame the constituent when they don’t win is fascist behavior. Democrats lose because they forgot the working class.
