Today I woke up curious about the kleptocracy’s end game. When they wreck the water supply for AI slaves and destroy everything except for themselves and their lil enclaves, what’s left? Will they finally enjoy life?

When they say the economy is booming but we can't afford the basics like gas or groceries, we know who they’re talking to. It's not to most of us, that's for damn sure.

so, I just tried something and it worked out astoundingly. Had some basic ass chocolate ice cream, thought it could use some doctoring. Didnt have much, but we had some kraft peanut butter. took three good spoonfuls of peanut butter, melted it in the microwave then poured it on the ice cream. yes.

It's fascinating, to me, how many columns and articles were written after Biden's withdraw from Afghanistan about the looming humanitarian catastrophe that Biden caused and how many fewer were written about Trump slashing US humanitarian aid still being sent there from $3B/year to $0 in 2025.

Even if it's true that this crazy ass motherfucker is going to hand you 5k as a blatant bribe to vote republican, that's 5k to pay for a lifetime of the most corrupt, deregulated, world-baiting administration you'll ever call yours. Vote Democrat like your life depends on it, trust me, it does.

Mamdani has often said, "they're paying more to campaign against me than they would to pay taxes." I wonder why rich people think this is a decent investment of resources? They'll just have to keep pouring money into election cycles, might as well pay the taxes. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

Andy Serkis opened up a can of worms. It's 2026 and Tolkien scholarship has moved far beyond JRRT's biographer's take that he wanted to make a "mythology for England." Tolkien was anti-apartheid, and the whole production should do some soul-searching. luke-shelton.com/2022/02/12/w...
