SLWKRT - “Slow Kart” Grumpy democratic-socialist disabled vet millennial who has no idea why they are even here. I post photos of cars, cats, and booze (and occasionally rant). Ok maybe more than occasionally.

As the military bans trans members from service, I want you to watch this video. I remember this attack vividly. It’s etched in my brain FOREVER. I survived it.

At NO point during this 30 minute attack did I think, “I hope everyone in this bunker is CIS.”

As someone who suffers from long-term medical issues caused by DOD/contractor negligence and abuses, I just have to say thanks to him for all he did. Without work like this, many of us would continue to suffer without knowing why. The service members owe him a debt of gratitude.

But don’t forget, he made soooo much money from it, and really that’s what we’ll mourn. The passing of a model oligarch.

Just gonna leave this here as a reminder for those that forgot just who profited so much from lasting pain and suffering. This is just one of the many examples and why The PACT Act was such a necessity and only the tip of the iceberg.

arXiv, a preprint publication for academic research that has become particularly important for AI research, has announced it will no longer accept computer science articles and papers that haven’t been vetted by an academic journal or a conference. Why?

A tide of AI slop.

Cornell University’s academic paper repository will no longer accept Computer Science papers still under review.

Thank you George Soros!

Because there’s always money to invade sovereign nations unprovoked (i.e. Iraq). Welcome to the next “they have weapons of mass destruction” ruse.

Hey Matt Goodwin, John Goodwin here. Fuck off cunt, and I pray we’re not distantly related you utter fucking twat.

Colonize the world. Take all their riches for your own. Crow about the superiority of Britain. Then demonize their descendants show up peacefully and make your country better?!

Everybody relies on SNAP - from farmers, corporate food producers, truckers, grocery stores, corner markets, fast food chains - all the way down to individuals who receive SNAP benefits.

Further, apply similar principles to ACA.

👉 Everybody benefits from ACA.

America is fighting itself.

Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

Please. Talk down to me more daddy.

Things my auto insurance coverage covers:

Personal injury protection, limited property damage, property protection.

This is restitution you are unlikely to get in criminal court but can get in civil court or with insurance. So be less of a cunt maybe?

John @slwkrt.com · 8d

What is yours?

Your car and a bullet are vastly different things. One can be controlled at all times, one can’t after a certain point. Sure we could get into hypotheticals on how your car ended up as a projectile leaving your property, but you’d better be insured to deal with that aftermath.

John @slwkrt.com · 8d

Can your vehicle fire a projectile capable of leaving your property?

This is the barn of a soy bean farmer. It is my great grandmother’s barn. You can see it if you drive from Lansing to Grand Rapids on 96. Why can you see it? Because MDOT built a highway right up against it years ago.

Glad she’s not here to get fucked over by a big orange douche canoe.

Jerry Jones is a gift to the NFL, truly. The ego of that man has sunk them to a new level of laughable.

My great grandparents were soy bean farmers. Can confirm. This is the uniform.

I’m not saying it’s a perfect solution, but it’s an attempt to hold people accountable and reinforce good behavior.
