It's never been more clear that they just want more people to die more quickly.

BREAKING: Friday night massacre underway at CDC. Doznes of "disease detectives," high-level scientists, entire Washington staff and editors of the MMWR (Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report) have all been RIFed and received the following notice:

It's a different French brandy. It's a bit harder to find because it's almost exclusively made by small producers. Fun to experiment with if you can find a place that sells it!

Dabo Swinney has done his damnedest to make everyone think Clemson is a Liberty affiliate.

Creating, contributing to, or using any technology that allows you to make even slightly reasonable deep fakes of another person without their permission & especially doing something that they haven’t done or would not do, plain and simple, should get you beaten with a sack of rocks.

Let's go, MIT. Standing on the right side is cool.

Why is Roger Federer debasing himself like this? Do you need another million dollars?

rawkitbawl @rawkitbawl.bsky.social · 21h

Not a lot of private universities that sound like they're public. Dayton, Boston College, NYU, San Francisco, Detroit Mercy, maybe.

Alex de Minotaur is doing so much more work than Medvedev despite being 150% less sweaty. Don't think this is going well for him.

rawkitbawl @rawkitbawl.bsky.social · 21h

Yup! And he's still young. I shouldn't be so pessimistic.

But when I watch him, I just feel like "This is a guy who will hang around between rank 10 and 30 for a few years then disappear".

Hope I'm wrong!

Felix Auger-Alliassime just isn't going to put it together, is he? Yeesh. I want him to succeed, but I don't think he's going to the top of the game.

Sometimes you thought you followed someone long ago but in fact did not.

rawkitbawl @rawkitbawl.bsky.social · 23h

Looking cool!

Good reminder that while Rhea Ripley looks extremely cool, she is in fact not.

This is such a weird and bad article (which is how I almost always feel after clicking a link to the independent).

Let me fix the headline. "One Weird Freak with Trump Administration Ties Thinks Barron Trump Should Have Role with Cursed American Tik Tok"

Barron Trump tipped for top job at TikTok as dad says users ‘owe’ him

The president has previously claimed that users ‘owe’ Barron Trump for saving the social media platform in a video from the Oval Office

It's got the ring of truth to it.

Link's ban is wrong and should be reversed.

This sounds cool. If I were in Dayton, I'd definitely go.

I'm working myself into a bit of a Poster's Frenzy. Going to nip that in the bud by drinking some gin and smoothing this dog.

rawkitbawl @rawkitbawl.bsky.social · 1d

Shit's ridiculous. In a normal world, attempting to conduct government business via Truth Social DMs alone would be an impeachable offense.

People would laugh at you so hard that you would basically never be able to get a word in.

Sometimes when I'm feeling a bit down, I think about how at least I'm not as comically inept as SoftBank.

Son Masayoshi is the greatest argument I've ever seen for just storing your money in a mattress.

SoftBank, once best known for having lots of money, is seeking a $5b margin loan (on ARM shares!) to invest in OpenAI

A generational all-in bet on AI infrastructure and we are nearing the finance equivalent of turning over couch cushions to find cash to pay for it

SoftBank in Talks for $5 Billion Margin Loan Backed by Arm Stock

SoftBank Group Corp. is in talks to borrow $5 billion from global banks, refilling its coffers at a time Masayoshi Son is accelerating the Japanese investment firm’s bets on artificial intelligence.

It's wild how completely stupid he sounds. If you ever for whatever reason thought the rich were smarter or better than you, this article will certainly cure that.
