The world's first anti-slop pope.

It's just sad that we live in a time in which anti-slop popes are necessary.

We rightfully crap on Maggie Haberman's palace intrigue reports but this is excellent work.
This is AMAZING journalism. The New York Times went through Trump's court filings related to what is happening in Chicago. There are videos, testimonies, and photographs. You can see this for yourself.

Oh yeah. Welcoming back the guy who got tricked into believing the Cheap Groceries Button is different from welcoming back the Tech Bros, most of whom deserve to be vaporized.
The tech leaders who championed DOGE are gonna try to get back into influencing the Democratic Party, and I think it’s a different situation than welcoming back regretful Trump 2024 voters

It's great that Trump's popularity is in the toilet but I still don't think I'll get over voters forgetting how much he sucked in just four years.

Don't drag her for this. She's right.
I’m sure I’m gonna get dragged for this, but I think AI is bad. AI has completely ruined Google search and it’s created a lot more slop that needs to be avoided on the Internet.

Any Democrat who wants my vote will pledge to tear down the fucking ballroom.
Trump has wanted to go ever-bigger with his planned White House ballroom.

One person who disagrees: Trump’s handpicked architect

James McCrery is worried about the size of Trump’s addition overshadowing the main White House mansion, per people we’ve spoken to.

Trump wants a bigger White House ballroom. His architect disagrees.
The president and James McCrery had argued in recent weeks over the project’s size, with Trump pushing him to expand the ballroom.

This is fucking madness. You might as well just vote Reform at this point!

There's a good case to be made that Trump's biggest purely political mistake in his first term was letting Paul Ryan hang in as Speaker.

In his second term I think it will be letting the AI Bros into the tent.

I of course have my issues with Democrats, but the GOP is just a steaming garbage pile of a political party.

I'm curious what the MAGA reaction is. I get the feeling they've mostly soured on him both for justified reasons (Patel comical incompetence) and unjustified ones (their own racism).
(MSNOW) - President Trump is considering removing Kash Patel as FBI director in the coming months, as he and his top aides have grown increasingly frustrated by the unflattering headlines Patel has recently generated, according to three people with knowledge ..

FWIW, it's always fascinating to me that the most pro-Palestinian country in the EU is Ireland. And the reason is... they have historical memory of what it's like being colonized. And it sucks!

It's comically obvious that if Tucker Carlson and Nick Fuentes had stuck with anti-Black or anti-Muslim racism, they'd 100% be acceptable to Bari Weiss. In fact, they probably could have gotten away with anti-Semitism! The sin was criticizing Israel.

If this ends the way I suspect it will, jail will not be sufficient for the AI Bros. The moderate position is demanding they be eaten.

We're now at the 'we can't stop inflating the bubble now, you fools! That would cause a recession!' stage of the AI bubble.

When it gets to this stage, I've found, it's just a matter of time, likely a year or so...

You have to keep giving money to avoid collapse and if there’s collapse you have to give more money. It’s called the free market.

I'm kinda shocked by this because Kelly is exactly the kind of Moderate Daddy the media normally swoons over. But nope, they have to give the ludicrously corrupt Trump administration the framing they want no matter what!

All of this energy is being devoured for... What exactly. If this shit cured cancer like they promised I could maybe justify it. But its two biggest uses seem to be producing slop and exacerbating mental illness.
Bubbles produce "collateral damage" and thus they suck, and their enthusiasts suck more. www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...
