There will be idiots saying stupid things, but given that Mamdani and AOC are also accused of being Zionist plants, it’s just background noise.

It’s not going to be a problem unless Ossoff is uncharacteristically bad on one particular issue. I don’t think a guy who went from losing congressional candidate to serious presidential contender in 8 years is going to torpedo his hopes on behalf of one right wing ethnostate. Track AIPAC is a joke.

Ok, but the white girls who are outraged by this are going to overlap very heavily with the white girls who were outraged by the murder of George Floyd. It’s not like discomfort is coming primarily from Thin Blue Line MAGAs.

Johnson County is huge and is ground zero for the Suburban Realignment- KS is the second most highly educated Red state. Plus. Farmers not having a good time and ICE raids really hurting the economy. Plus Marshall was a mediocre candidate even before the medical debt scandal and Hamilton is perfect.

The biggest mitigating factor is that the Fed is not compromised, and they’ve taken quite aggressive action when required to ensure financial stability. Not great that we just have to hope that the termites missed one room if the house collapses around us though.

I guess the final doubling might make it go from a pre-neutron star state straight to a black hole, but that’s beyond my pay grade.

Spooky Steve @lessdismalsci.bsky.social · 07/10/2026

Doesn’t matter, as black hole mass goes up, density goes down- mass of a generic black hole is proportional to radius. This even assuming incomprehensible paper once you get to around 10^41 bills in one place it’s a black hole regardless, so about 138 days max until singularity.

Im just saying that the bad Trump quote is a different type of bad that what it might look like. It doesn’t change anything about how [redacted due to 18 U.S.C. § 871]

No, the ellipsed lines are “to keep the world safe, to keep our country safe” in the context of high gas prices. The hypothetical nukes are the example of the danger. Would be nice if the media covered his butchered sentences and ramblings like they covered when Biden stuttered.

Spooky Steve @lessdismalsci.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Oh, 100%, and the crowd has cheers at the mention of of them being nuked, it’s horrible. I’m only making the very narrow point that he’s not specifically saying that American cities being nuked is a small price to pay.

Spooky Steve @lessdismalsci.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Ok, I hate to do this, but if you look at what’s left out in the elipses I’m pretty sure he’s trying to say that expensive gas is a small price to pay to prevent a world where they can take out LA or SD, he’s just not coherent enough to make the point. Check the clip, it’s short.

He talks to a columnist who had just talked to Yarvin, then Vance shows up.

Spooky Steve @lessdismalsci.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

NatCon- the chronology in the VF article is a bit hazy, but Vance is hanging in the same group as Yarvin, and the two were together the day after Vance’s big speech as well. www.vanityfair.com/news/2022/04...

They’re not MAGA. They’re not QAnon. Curtis Yarvin and the rising right are crafting a different strain of conservative politics.

Spooky Steve @lessdismalsci.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

Just because he’s in the same circles on Twitter, has the same billionaire patron, goes to the same parties as yarvin, and endorses Yarvin’s views like Caesarism and firing all government employees etc., and is described as a friend of his in multiple reputable sources, doesn’t mean he’s a friend.

Spooky Steve @lessdismalsci.bsky.social · 06/10/2026

So, he only said “Fire every single midlevel bureaucrat, every civil servant in the administrative state, replace them with our people." In the context of criticizing it, in spite of what the article says?

I’m not scared of agentic bank runs, but I do worry that our banking system relies on a bunch of inefficiencies, a la classified ads subsidizing local news.

Oops, turns out those cross-subsidies were load bearing: a history of American society in the early 21st century.

If you are in the KC metro, if you could save and share this metro on any of your channels (instagram, facebook, whatever, idc) I would be super appreciative. Or, you know, buy a ticket or two and come out yourself and support Isaiah Harris yourself by watching one our city’s best comedic acts.

Guy with the charisma of mayonnaise running even against a very successful pastor, in a state with a Dem governor and a huge population of educated suburban whites along with a non-negligible Hispanic population and lots of farmers who aren’t having a good year? Not that far out.
