Wouldn’t the bullets that killed the CEO be in the corpse and not Luigi’s bag? Sounds like exculpatory evidence to me…

Bibi used the term pejoratively when talking about MAGA folks who were criticizing Israel recently. Don’t know the term’s origins though, I’ve been seeing it more lately.

160 soldiers made an excuse to not see family over the holidays, I get that feeling

It’s weird ICE said he isn’t an agent… if they are to be believed then this incident was a good job interview and he’ll have a job with ICE by end of week.

I agree this map is far from complete. Maybe my definition is different but I would include “internment” camps like Gurs. Speaking for just France, there seems to have been dozens of them if you include POW camps.

Some people don’t get the opportunity to reincarnate as a human again, people like C Kirk reincarnate as a lower and more vulnerable life form so their soul can learn the value of humility and empathy.

She recently was on Tim Dillon podcast and my impression of the situation: She’s a duplicitous lip-server. Shes delusional enough to rationalize the impending healthcare disaster the dems point to as actually “lapses in Obamacare”, not at all because the BBB bill just passed by her party. Also, she is just protesting with dems where convenient because she is capitalizing on some popularity internal to MAGA. It’s easy to hold her party leaders to account and follow through on promises if that means getting some leverage later on.

Hit the nail on the head with manufactured consent. That was the old way of doing things, it’s all top-down autocracy now. No need to get the public to understand anything, the Trump fascists will do the thinking for you.

I think the silver lining right now with this new policy is that journalists can’t physically go to the Pentagon for information. They could theoretically confer with sources outside of the building, off hours, in a different country etc. I imagine those leaks will be more scrutinized now.

I understand where your anger is coming from but it’s misplaced. Lots of people, Americans too, learn the Irish genocide as “the Irish Potato Famine”. Secondly, single crop use is ONE factor that made the situation worse in the context of anti-Irish policies by the occupying British.

I keep seeing this historical “fact” but I can’t find anything corroborating it. “Hitler oaths” were already being taken since 1933, by June of 1935 the Reichswehr was replaced by the Wehrmacht.

$100,000 bounty I’d give up my piece-of-shit cousin

Yea I swear I saw this guy yesterday walking around NYC, he couldn’t have possibly been in Utah.

FBI released these photos, looks like they are desperate for the public’s help now.

His last words on this earth, “violence”.

I wouldn’t do something so rash but if you are prepared to do that then you need to make solid plans for your own arrest. Have all your documentation, tell a friend or someone you trust that you can contact if you get jailed, probably a lawyer ready too. If you’re lucky you won’t get charged and depending on what you do it could be a misdemeanor which won’t totally ruin your life.

This is a great paper that solidifies (no pun intended) the framework that Mars structurally is still similar to earth - a solid inner core composed of mainly O, Fe, S, and C surrounded by a solid mantle. This opens more questions, If the Martian core is still solid, then what events in Mars’ past led to the geomagnetic field collapsing? How is there a lack of a dynamo field if the core is still crystallizing (can it be reactivated? Maybe with a giant hamster wheel?)

It’s the same issue that plagues every person that is soberly seeing the collapse of American democracy. We all want to take a stand but at the end of the day these Texas Dems need to get back home for family, be in their districts with their constituents, and somehow go on with life. Even though everything is on the line it’s still not enough to loose yet for people, including the larger Texas populace.

I keep forgetting when you get that rich your biggest problems are how to create technocratic city states and living forever through unholy blood rituals.

I understand being gay isn’t someone’s entire identity but I find it astounding that men like Tim Cook and Scott Bessent see no problem pocketing their gay privilege (being married, having surrogate children etc) for a quick buck. Money truly corrupts all.

Fascinating book suggestion, thanks.
