There’s a special sadness in techbros spending the last sixty years trying to invent the Robot Dog, given how many real dogs are in need of adoption and ready to give you their entire heart and soul for a head scratch.

The way they jerk themselves off after every successful missile strike, you would never know they were losing.

It’s a shame we never invented a Space-Time machine

If voting isn’t enough (I didn’t think it is) then do more. Go knock on doors for the candidate that you like. There are a million ways to participate in democracy.

Love to door knock for Heinrich Himmler.

These “both choices bad. Better to not vote” people really don’t make any kind of sense to me.

Hey, listen. I vote every year. This year, 90% of my ballot is going to be blank, because so many of the candidates are absolutely abhorrent. But when I am presented with the Himmler / Hitler choice, I will be firmly bubbling in © None of the Above. I might even knock a few doors and tell my neighbors about how great © None of the Above would be. If I could figure out where to send my money, I could even see myself donating.

Image being unhealthy and saying “it’s going to take more than a 20 minute walk once a week to get in shape. Better not even do that then cuz what would be the point?”

Its funny, because I’m picturing you trying to recover from a broken leg with that mentality.

Diploma mills gonna mill diplomas

Republicans. Would. Be. Worse.

We will be more like China

We won’t be like China. We’ll be more insulated and divorced from Chinese media, culture, and conversation.

That’s the stated end goal. Bringing up sharp walls between nationalities in order to control the flow of information between people.

If we keep TikTok open, we risk exposing American young people to Chinese norms, ideals, and social standards. We might even be exposed directly to Chinese mass media (ie, propaganda).

This is a real security risk, as it raises a possibility that younger Americans won’t accept American mass media at face value.

Nintendo gets to do this (the Yuzu shit) because so many other developers have stopped making anything except slot machines.

Behold, the unlimited power of a fully nationalized war time economy.

No Poor Muslims Allowed

• Regular

• Deluxe

• Budget Brand

• Whole Foods Select

• Fiji Brand Chickpea (not from Fiji and technically not a chickpea but does somehow both ruthlessly exploit foreign laborers and generate ten times its weight in carbon emissions; promises to cure cancer)

• A single novelty supersized chickpea that sits in a display case and never actually gets sold but kids love to look at.

In Georgia, demand for industrial power is surging to record highs, with the projection of electricity use for the next decade now 17 times what it was only recently.

The first new nuclear plants since Three Mile Island just came online in Georgia last year. Vogtle 3 and 4 will produce a combined 1.2 GWe at peak capacity.

These reactors took 16 years and multiple bailouts and bankruptcies to complete, costing an estimated $34B to finish.

Hopefully, future power construction will move a little smoother.

As a comparison, the Taishan Nuclear Power Plant took ten years to complete at the cost of around $7.5B and it has a peak generation of 3.3 GWe

Its called a bumblebee because its got three left feet.

I know this to be true, because the TV told me so.

More than 122 journalists and media workers have been killed in Gaza since the outbreak of the war.

America deserves a President Kamala Harris

I mean, the joke is going to be in the enforcement, as a battalion of Australia’s largest and roundest uniformed fascist shitheads march through the streets breaking windows and swinging at the heads of anyone sporting a Palestinian flag.

You’re going to have folks with swastika face tattoos explaining why these anti-Zionist activists just need to obey the law.

You know a gamma male when you see them because they’re smoking hot and absolutely glowing, but ultimately extremely toxic to be around.
