Legit question for anyone who gets mathmatical formalisms. Why are imaginary numbers that don't exist in nature okay to use in equations and divide by zero isn't? They both look like placeholders on paper. Black holes and singularities even seem to exist and imply the latter is more real than i.

Not even gonna link to the shitty framing of this CNN piece.

"Hasn't been accused of wrongdoing"? Except by dozens of women, one proven in court. Multiple federal and state prosecutors with one felony conviction. Countless people who've ever done business with him.

Unlikely Pluribus prediction just to get it here, sure I'm not the first: We know it involves aliens. They contact us to say we're assholes and they don't want to meet until we fix our ways and start making each other happy instead of being dicks. People do. Rhea Seehorn doesn't buy it and rebels.

They. Do. Not. Care. About. Tariffs.

This is a bit of Roberts moderation so he can pretend his court isn't full of right wing reactionaries.

It's taking away a piece of Halloween candy. Trump still gets a full dinner of burnt steak, ketchup, and a chocolate cake dessert.

Made this for my kid cause he's been playing the game. He laughed for like 5 minutes straight. Fathering accomplished.

A house on my way to work has intermittently flown Trump flags. The 2020 one came down on *exactly* January 7th. And still the 2024 came up later. Dude also had a "No Kings No Masters" one for years until that recently no longer applied.
These people have no fucking idea what they believe.

Sadly a bigger problem with Trump isn't that he's fucking us over in real time. It's that in the future no one will deal with us if terms can be capriciously rescinded at any time. Iran nuke deal? Fuck off. Paris climate? Fuck you frenchie. Now they're fucking over people who agreed to help us.

I get the Tammy Wynette Stand By Your Man impulse, but there is no world in which a so-called "lifelong Democrat" should be okay with current MAGA policies. Pretty sure the brain worm crawled across the pillow into her ear at some point.

There it is. Threats of straight up autocracy. Any media outlet that was indignant about what the left and Dems from Hilary to Kamala were saying should be offering nothing but mea culpas now.

And yet they won't. That'd be acknowledging their own mistakes and that the sides are not the same.

As a sandwich aficionado, nothing elates me more than the fact that they've become a symbol of the resistance.

Again, it's always Democrats fault that Republicans suck.

I was just talking to someone and tried to bring up the Dunning-Kruger effect, yet the only thing my brain kept coming up with is Sapir-Whorf which I knew was wrong. I just sat there blankly, hoist with my own petard.

Am I the only one that feels this is a bit tautologous? The thing is trained on the limited, selective data sets we feed it. It'd be like me training someone to skydive. I know some principles but have never actually done it. If I ask them in the plane how I'm doing of course they'll say great.

Up late cause I haven't been sleeping so well recently. Been lax on my public media donations, but now's the time for all of us to step up so I got that done.

On a lighter note, not enough people are pointing out that there's a Weyland-Yutani android in the new Predator trailers.

Not the first to point this out, but Trump has never been anti-war. His self interest means he's only against it with totalitarians he admires that happen to be our traditional enemies-Russia, DPRK, etc. A big reason he's considering attacking Iran is because he hasn't met with them yet in person.

I’ve been a long time lurker who didn’t want to wade into the cesspool of social media, but when they come for the golden retrievers I’m gonna come out.
