It’s not lying if you believe it, and then issue a correction when you realize you were wrong.

The dictionary changed it the other way a few years ago. Literally now means figuratively. There is no word for what literally used to mean, and that’s apparently OK with them.

But the teevee said

Eh the media is already pretending Trump’s Biggest Tax In History will be turned into a cash funnel to pay down the debt. When in reality not a single dollar will flow there. The media is back to being totally complicit.

I hope they tell us when it starts because I won’t notice otherwise

Technically at this point I’m more interested in his plans to “quickly” fix DC and to send troops to take over major US cities. But the other stuff is important too, just, martial law.

Well my decision to cancel Spotify last month is already paying off.

What um, what court system do you think is going to make that happen? Cause the current one is owned by an extremely pro-AI administration. If anything gets appealed to SCOTUS they will rule for AI.

There was once a time when a small company built out of passion could elevate a normal guy into CEO, so as recently as 30-40 years ago you could still have some decency at the top. As the barriers to entry have shot upward, today to become a C-level you get an MBA and carefully scrape out your soul as part of your “leadership” education which has nothing to do with the widgets your company will produce, and everything to do with fellating the shareholders.

It’s sad because I grew up in an era when a guy could still get ahead by being sharp and having good ideas, but now it’s only by Playing The Game. So those of us with morals are stuck with low earning potential because of it.

The Dems finally figured out it’s incredibly stupid to keep fighting and pushing upward when it just results in a net loss for us. Took them a surprisingly long time to figure it out, and we lost a lot of rights, including trans rights, in the progress.

Yes, but the media is willing to lie for him and whatever form necessary to normalize all this

mRna is cancelled

Passing bills is not enough. You need to “bring a knife to a knife fight” and Dems themselves say they’ve been bringing pencils up till now.

I love this new more feisty Democratic Party but it’s a new thing.

Cancelled my account this morning, enough is enough.

I think if you do what she did for as long as she did, there’s no real coming back from it.

Except at the Supreme Court, of course.

Good news readers can help you get lots of the content you want with only a quick passing glance at the headlines so you can still carry a conversation/contemplate the inescapability of this planet

The #1 thing Trump taught me is, if you talk with the shabbiest-false machismo and bravado, and you throw a certain amount of common-sense-racism-and-chauvinism in, people will just fully disengage their frontal lobes and register whatever you say as gospel. Especially people who claim to love gospel. Should Liberals be taking notes on this? Yes. Are they?

Once you start playing with radiowaves and antenna you start noticing the intricate ways it plays with and around bags of water like bodies. I’m sure the original research on location/movement tracking was due to scientists trying not to get interference, later once they figured it out it was natural to see how much data they could get out of a radio interference profile.

I remember the original tech was going to be marketed as a way to tell if your old person (parent etc) had fallen down and stopped moving. Not the best use case, and then the privacy implications became clear. Once that happens the race begins to exploit the tech.

…But the eventuality here is something like a Star Trek tricorder that can take multiple vitals and detect irregularities from across the waiting room. Sensors that remember who was in a room and what settings they had. Etc. Some cool thing besides the bad stuff (microtarget those ads).

One of the ways I knew my marriage was over, he disabled location services and left them off for months and then years. I followed when I started fucking other people.

There’s no way a libel database could be a bad business model
