Hegseth's impeachment is inevitable. Senate trial after the midterm wave but before people get distracted with Christmas seems like perfect politics.

Explain that you're a credulous ass hat without actually saying you're a credulous ass hat. The judge is angry but he also needs to be very very embarrassed.

People who believe in the possibility of AI consciousness should start using words like faith and belief when they talk about AI consciousness, stop pretending to be mushy agnostics and admit that they see skeptics as atheist deniers of their chosen God.

Parody of a parody. Trumps Razor is think of the dumbest or explanation and that's the correct one. Now Trump's Nostradamus is think of the dumbest thing and he will do it in a month.

Is that a reference to the song Passing Through - I saw Jesus on a cross on a hill called Calvary, do you hate mankind for what they done to you... - or is it a Dylan lyric reference I'm missing?

I always thought his standup at the beginning was intentionally bad but some of those hits are in his act. Couldn't act and wasn't funny but somehow made a billion dollars.

I was sad and hurt when I heard Bacon say he had a moment of reckoning when he realized he had been in a movie about giant worms, because he had been in a GREAT movie about giant worms. I hope he now realizes. It's one of his best movies.

As I said in a comment about Musk, people (in this case the other white house correspondents and media companies) thinking they are in on the grift is the explanation for our times.

I think he will be impeached within six months and will have to seriously lawyer up for the boat strikes, though I don't know if he'll be charged or convicted.

He's pretty funny. Depressing but gobsmacking at the same time. Secretly Sascha Baron Cohen in disguise, AI or maybe Ron Burgundy writing his speeches.

The next Dem administration should under-the-radar spend a ton of money on the IRS enforcement. Lawyer up to pursue criminal investigations of course but also tax avoidance.

This looks bad enough to bomb so hard he ends up in director jail. He really can't direct. It looks like bad TV.

definitely worth reading. I think maybe the broadcast pointing tv cameras into the crowd deserves some opprobrium as well.

The US gov in 2029 should pay reparations to people like him with money seized from Trump. Wouldn't make it right but it would be at least a gesture towards justice.

'Free' is not the right branding. TANSTAFL will be many people's response. They need to find a different frame for the policy.

My Turkish friend who'd never heard of Anthony Bourdain enjoyed Tony, and I, low-key fanboy, thought it was great. I loved being inside a working kitchen and the portrait of a main character who is not currently likeable but clearly will be later in life.

Pretty outrageous that the Supreme Court increasingly plans to release its records only when the entire public that lived through the decisions are dead. Congress should pass legislation requiring all internal communication be preserved and then released 5 years after a justice's retirement.

The Disintegration of the U.S. Military Under Trump and Beyond
Russia’s woes in Ukraine reflect its autocracy, corruption, and dismal choices. Sounds like the Pentagon under Pete Hegseth.
