These guys don't understand each other. Elon Musk is too guileless. He says exactly what he thinks is true with little regard for how others will react. He alienates allies by airing disputes in public instead of settling them behind closed doors. Because he is a sperg…

New from the FBI… I can confirm that this morning at JFK Airport, FBI Agents arrested an individual, Daniel Jongyon Park, on charges related to the bombing of the Palm Springs, CA fertility clinic in May. Park is alleged to have provided material support to the fertility clinic…
This is ... honestly fair, I think.
eric adams is legitimately insane and literally committed treason in exchange for airline miles. he’s also the only nyc mayor in ~50 years to make progress on two of the biggest issues the city has: trash & housing
You can disagree with this man's politics (and I do! our entire friendship is based on it!) but ... An amazon review said (paraphrased) "this convinced me to hate libertarianism because of all the problems" and, true, he didn't write libertopia, THAT WAS THE POINT. Recommended.

It appears that Ukraine just destoyed ~30% or more of Russia’s nuclear-capable strategic bombers. Shouldn’t be hard for Russia to comply with New START Treaty limits now.
Russia kept using said forces to launch non-nuclear cruise missiles into Ukraine. If they'd kept them as solely a part of their Nuclear Triad, perhaps this argument would hold water. But they didn't, so it doesn't.
Absolute silence while Russia unleashes on Ukrainian civilian centres and supercharges a new offensive for the past week. But the MOMENT Ukraine defends itself, its somehow Kyiv to blame for sabotaging peace talks.
I only have one question. If this current post execution robot-clone Biden has dementia, who coded the robot? X staff?
Trump practices being a tough guy in front of the mirror. Meanwhile, this is how you to talk to Russia.
👀 Zelensky on Russians during today's negotiations: "The Russian delegation, as I was told, behaved a little calmer, but the arrogance, you know, is what it is. Let's see, maybe we need a couple more measures and they'll try to behave like people."
Trump started this insane wave of misinformation that Biden was giving people like $3 to rebuild their homes after hurricanes and then hired someone who doesn’t even know we have hurricanes. sounds about right.

... dear amazon, when out of morbid curiosity I search for 'male thong' you do not, in fact, need to annotate the listings that show up with "arrives before father's day"

If apples were fruits. Then the name "apples" wouldn't need to exist. You'd just call them fruits.
I am not the person to have an opinion on Syria, but that's some well executed oration.
Asked what Syrians most need right now, Ahmad al-Shara said, "Dignity through work. Peace through purpose." He is very, very good at this, and I can understand both those who are all-in believing he's the man of the hour, and those who see his rhetoric as too good to be true.
I am ... not at all a fan, let us say ... of M. Greenwald. But honestly I don't a flying fsck about his kinks; my disagreements with him are over his work. (it is very funny that he hit the wrong button and retweeted it, mind, but I still don't care about the contents thereof)
US grading facinates me. Getting a 1 (on a 1-4 scale of passing) on my .uk university courses was set at 85% (over assignments plus exams). Being able to include some questions that are stretch goals where you don't expect even the best students to get all of them is a feature.
