Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

I would love to be part of the conversation on MSNBC related to the Kimmel story and it's chilling effects on first amendment, but unfortunately I was terminated by MSNBC for stating that "hateful thoughts lead to hateful words which lead to hateful actions".

new play. Revision of something I did earlier in the year - a bit of a departure from anything I’ve tried to tackle in the last ten years. Gonna throw it up on NPX for grins - would love your feedback.

you know, if i were in the position of interviewing jeffries here, i would ask the congressman to specify exactly when and where mamdani used that language.
Hakeem Jeffries on Mamdani: "'Globalizing the intifada' by way of example is not an acceptable phrasing. He's gonna have to clarify his position on that as he moves forward."

We need to build some real social stigma around being afraid of cities. You don't have to like them or live there, but a politics built this strongly around watching TV and going "ewww" is embarrassing, and people should be embarrassed by it. It's like "fear of werewolves" being your top issue.

people are getting disappeared, innocent men sent to foreign gulags, the civil service hollowed out, thousands left to die without foreign aid, and schumer is saber rattling about iran. these people make me fucking sick.
If TACO Trump is already folding on Iran, the American people need to know about it.

No side deals.

No spoilers, but the new Mission impossible has a very funny and satisfying biker handshake at the end. Got a big laugh from the audience. Everyone loves em!
