Sir Patrick read a Shakespeare sonnet on twitter every day during covid. I also just watched Logan for the first time a couple days ago. I didn't know the real guy had Alzheimer's. 😑

BTW, the Buddha is not a Nazi. That swastika on his chest shows up all the time and means auspicious good fortune or similar.

honestly degrading the idea of "last best hope" -- the biggest opportunity humanity has ever had -- by lumping it together with EA, politics, censorship, and centralized control has been a huge disaster for humanity and polarized a lot of people

Atrosto Inflooencer files Ch2. The Food, or Smell the Virality: Hong Kong has 🇯🇵7-11 everywhere and we're eating the shit out of these Onigiri. 10 hongers is like a buck and a quarter and it's a decent lump of chow. Easy open, eat standing or walking, no need to be hungry here.

I heard the money was going to be coated with EbolaRicinThrax.
BREAKING: Saudi Arabia offers Yemen's Houthis $1 billion through Tehran to halt their attacks as part of a ceasefire, with Defence Minister Prince Khalid bin Salman flying to Iran to negotiate it and even bringing the money with him aboard the C-130 aircraft he arrived on, per diplomatic Gulf sources to Israel Hayom. Iran offered to mediate between Saudi Arabia and the Houthis. It was represented by President Pezeshkian, SNSC chief Mohsen Rezaei and senior IRGC officials. Turkish intelligence chief Ibrahim Kalin and Pakistan's army chief Asim Munir were also taking part. This is one of the biggest concessions from the Saudis yet.

Add this and you've got a picture of the high end of the low end in Kowloon. We bought the electric kettle for morning oats and instant coffee prepped in ramen cups. The peasants in other rooms in the warren have to share baths and no window. Lodging is super expensive here.

Your periodic reminder that teachers and school administrators should wear body cameras
Starting next school year, a bell-to-bell cell phone ban will take effect in every single Pennsylvania classroom. We’re getting back to the basics and keeping our classrooms focused on learning.

“Progressive & tolerant” until voters disagree with you. Then millions are suddenly MAGA bigots. Your tolerance lasts exactly as long as people obey you. That’s not progressivism, you self-righteous fucking clown. It’s elitism wearing a rainbow flag with a superiority complex.

When the doomers inevitably backpedal into "but our warning saved us all" it will be important to remind them we laughed at their nonsense the whole time and redouble the mockery until their tiny souls shrivel up completely.

You can’t hold cash because it isn’t backed by gold and gets printed until it’s worthless and you can’t hold gold because they’re about to figure out alchemy and mine it from asteroids so it’s worthless and you can’t hold digital cash because the internet is getting hacked so it’s worthless and you can’t hold stocks because the ai bubble is about to burst so they’re worthless and you can’t hold crypto because it’s worthless (and it’s getting hacked by ai and quantum so it’s even more worthless) and you can’t hold oil because it’s highly flammable and we’re entering ww3 so it’s worthless and you can’t hold food because it’s perishable so it’s worthless and

Just think of your Red vote as the neutralization of a hostile Blue vote if that makes it psychologically easier.
