Dying of ebola a few days after he left DRC means the unfortunate guy was already quite unwell and was coming back home to go straight to hospital. How did that even happen? From what I'm hearing people thinking out loud, the aftermath of this will go far beyond a health crisis.

Afwerki was almost dying of cerebral malaria while his Eritrean comrades were winning the independence war, but he was taken to TelAviv for lifesaving treatment. I don't think his brain walked away unscrambled.

fascism is anti-life, not just for the victims of fascism, but for the fascists themselves. they don't want to reach their promised utopia, they want to die in pursuit of it

There's a *social* hierarchy that places "person who does computer in office" much much higher than "person who gets food out of the ground." This social hierarchy makes it hard to imagine that AI can replace the first and easy to imagine that it can replace the second. That's probably backwards.

I teamed up with Mr Beast to write an end times horror novel "Birthmark of the Beast". In this apocalyptic thriller Mr Beast has twin babies with Trisha Paytas; born on the day Peter Thiel and Elon Musk die in an exploding rocket, marking them as the twin antichrists foretold by Chat GPT.

RIP Dolly Parton.

Never met her, never interviewed her (despite decades of unrequited requests) but thought she was utterly fabulous in every way.

Guys, why would FIFA be confiscating a national flag during a match? Especially when we can clearly see people proudly waving it in the background? Is there maybe something Ms Nesterova is omitting here? I'm sure it's AN Iranian flag. But is it THE Iranian flag?
