The death of truth is the ultimate victory of evil. Exceeded my rate limits on Twitter so now I'm here. Sh*tposts and takes on politics, movies, culture, whatever.

I have mixed feelings about Stancilposting overall but I can see why a guy who spent most his life in greater Minneapolis doesn’t get why a 6-figure doesn’t feel well-off in say San Diego and why someone in California doesn’t feel well-off even though they are.
Feels like most of the economic confusion in discourse comes from two places: 1) not understanding the massive cost-of-living differences between the coasts/cities and everywhere else and 2) the cultural markers of income as opposed to the income itself.

McKinley called and he wants his policies back. Look, we could debate whether or not invading Venezuela is wise (it's not), but means we're going about it are unjustifiable. Not even in a vote in Congress to topple a government? Hoping it all works out? Dubya is wondering why he didn't bomb Tehran.

Submitting myself into the crucible once more:

5, 4, 6, 7, 3, R1, S, 8, 9, 2, 1

Out of them all, I would only call 1 and 2 bad movies.

8 and Solo are mediocre.

Rogue One, 3, and 7 are just good.

The original trilogy is great. I struggle with the order of 6 and 7, and Solo and 8.

These numbers for a family of 4 come out monthly to:

Housing: $1,938
Food: $1,226
Transportation: $1,237
Healthcare: $881
Other: $1,821

For the middle class, nationally, housing seems about right, as does food if you budget. Transportation seems high, as does healthcare, who knows about other.
Man, gotta love some Wall Street guy who decides It’s Time To Care About Poverty and uses vibe math to recalculate the poverty line, as… $136,500

Since Trump came on the scene Republicans have blindly accepted that they don't have agency. "If we stick our necks out we'll get primaried."

Okay, what then?

"Either the crazies take over or the party is doomed!"

See they can't accept either of those, for very self-serving reasons.
Just saying, but they could always uh… do their jobs instead of being partisan shitweasels?

1/ The affordability problem isn't entirely housing but it's mostly housing, and you're talking about a crazy price appreciations post-2020 plus interest rates doubling. Those effects get pushed downstream to rent prices because either 1) landlords have higher initial costs or ...

I guess this is different because Meta isn't doing anything fraudulent (as far as we know) but oh boy.
"It seems like a marvel of financial engineering: Meta is building a $27 billion data center in Louisiana, financed with debt, and neither the data center nor the debt will be on its own balance sheet."

As for why people bother with this, if you can somehow get $500 per month of Twitter that’s basically a monthly salary in Nigeria.
A reminder that pre-Elon Twitter would mass ban these accounts and they would be unable to generate revenue. The current business model is propaganda slop for profit, all from a guy who says “America First” over and over again.
Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait.

My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.

That Roblox interview is horrifying, but I don't think it's possible to have 100% safety for kids gaming online with strangers, especially young kids. Once they're in high school *most* of them are wary enough to spot predators, but with AI I worry there will be a lot of fake 18 and 19 year-olds.

My most controversial opinion is that even if the generic ballot was tied Maine would be a near auto-flip for Democrats, albeit at very narrow margins. At the current generic ballot (D+5) it'll be a tight race but Collins is gonna lose it.
Cygnal poll: ME Senate race at 49% generic Dem, 41% Collins. If she votes for ACA subsidies, race tightens to 45% Dem, 43% Collins, which is within the poll's 4-pt margin of error. #mepolitics www.newsweek.com/susan-collin...

Sounds like something Elon would pay guys in military fatigues to do.
This has gotten very little coverage in the US, but on Monday US military contractors or troops or some other paramilitary group placed signs on a beach in Mexico, claiming it as US territory. (The contested location is close to the SpaceX base outside Brownsville)

1/ So seeing that Nalin Haley post made me check out the rest of his family and it turns out his sister Rena is pretty normal and well-adjusted. She's 27, graduated Clemson in 2021, married to a black guy (not that I care, but interracial marriage seems relevant in conservative SC/Nalin's bigotry)

If I were in the White House Press Corps I'd ask Leavitt if she finds the President's use of the term "piggy" to describe a woman as acceptable. Would she be okay if someone referred to her this way? Asking anything else yields evasion.
