Guys, it's a really good time to just log off for a bit, pull out a Nintendo and just dive into some retro games you haven't played in years and escape from the global affairs that aren't going great and you have very little influence over.

Trump’s actions in Venezuela set a dangerous precedent. Acting without legitimacy weakens our credibility, divides us at home, and plays right into the hands of Putin and Xi. Clip with @briefingwithpsaki.bsky.social

I am with my best friend and her partner—who I love.

Watching bad TV.

Drinking a martini.

After having eaten a good dinner.

And there is joy.

Find your joy.

It doesn’t have to be big.
Just real. ❤️

Horrific reminder of the criticality of building essential safety measures and material selection for interiors. It's hard to fathom a fire started by a candle causing this many deaths but there will surely be deficiencies in key areas that massively escalated the level of loss of life 😢

Bluesky definitely has a very politically lopsided user base. But at least they're actual human users, unlike on Twitter

Nothing to see here. All totally logical and defensible for sure 🤢

Whether it's Hillary Clinton making $100,000 in cattle futures 14 years before she became First Lady or Donald Trump making $1.7 billion from his DJT meme stock while serving as president, both sides have made money in controversial ways.

Reports of a mass shooting at Bondi Beach, Sidney, at or near a Hanukkah event which was taking place on the beach. I have seen videos of two men in black shooting down to the beach, but I'm not sure if those are the assailants or LEO. Reports of many casualties.

Honestly, this is surprising... I didn't think we'd see the MAGA "He's not a pedophile if they're 15" discourse unless Trump was named directly.
Megyn Kelly: "I know somebody very close to this case…Jeffrey Epstein, in this person's view, was not a pedophile…He was into the barely legal type, like he liked 15 year old girls…He wasn't into like 8 year olds…There's a difference between a 15 year old and a 5 year old."

Many leftists need to reckon with the way they are perceived, and how unwittingly divisive their behaviour is at times. It is what is driving younger men, from all racial blocs out of the left wing party. They only want a leader that actively pushes back against this force of hivemind thought

Today, Mike Johnson will keep the House adjourned for the 81st day out of the last 93.

12 days of work in over 3 months.

With full pay and benefits.

The senate has been working, so this is not about the shutdown.

It is about avoiding a vote to release the Epstein files.

The white house ballroom issue has been a useful tell for who's still suffering from a 2017 case of Trump Derangement Syndrome, and will be complaining no matter what happens because it's Trump.

Apparently "not touching the White House" turned into "demolishing the White House"

The government has killed 32 people in 7 strikes with no evidence they were traffickers. The admiral leading the mission quit. If we had proof, they’d face a court, not a drone.

The law still applies, even to suspected drug traffickers, and right now, the Administration’s story isn’t adding up.

Peaceful anti Trump protests are awesome and cathartic, but I feel they would have more cut through with the less polarised if the timing and purpose was linked to specific events or actions.

An ICE agent, who is being arrested for drunk driving and nearly killing his little kids & others, tries to stop the arrest by racially profiling the officers arresting him. Amazing to watch the courtesy given to him as he is belligerent and uncooperative

Despite huge advancements in technology & worker productivity since the 1970s, wages for American workers have remained stagnant and almost all new wealth has gone to the people on top.

Will it be any different with AI and robotics?

I don’t think so. Maybe even worse.
