Like walking out of a pub because it was full of dickheads and they start shouting at you to come back because "this isn't fair, you have to listen to me"
The ragebaiting anger tourists are complaining over on Twitter that people are blocking them too much and reducing their reach. Amazing.

Wait. We're going to start a war with Venezuela because they are sending Don Jr's cocaine to Europe?? Can't he just go buy it there??
Sen. Chris Murphy said Hegseth + Rubio admitted to senators yesterday that no fentanyl is coming out of Venezuela -- despite Trump’s misleading efforts to tie the country to the deadly drug so he can justify bombing boats.
The boats have cocaine, bound for Europe. www.huffpost.com/entry/chris-...

Taking a break from the sickening tragedy to focus on the beauty for a moment. Rob Reiner achieved something so rare and coveted that artists and entertainers dream of and rarely achieve: cultural permanence. How many times have you made a reference to something going to 11? Shouted "Inconceivable"?

just incredible optics here, the president yelling at you about how you should buy less and like it, three weeks before christmas, while standing in front of a bunch of stupefied moronic dipshits holding BIGGER PAYCHECKS signs
Trump: "You can give up certain products. You could give up pencils. Because under the China policy, every child can get 37 pencils. They only need 1 or 2. They don't need that many. You always need steel. You don't need 37 dolls for your daughter. 2 or 3 is nice. So we're doing things right."

we all got cowed into avoiding "virtue signaling" as if the public affirmation of socially agreed upon ethical principles was somehow cringey instead of a significant part of what a "society" even is. now all there's left is vice signaling, and it's reshaping society.

One sign of a bubble is when the major players do gimmicks to hide the cost of the bubble.
If the thing was clearly a good value, they'd just say "look at us investing in this valuable thing," rather than this obvious shell game to avoid booking the cost of building a data center.

Meta’s data-center accounting gets the Jon Weil treatment:
It’s “financed with debt, and neither the data center nor the debt will be on its own balance sheet. That outcome looks too good to be true, and it probably is.”

Trump suggests Khashoggi had it coming: "You're mentioning someone that was extremely controversial. A lot of people didn't like that gentleman that you're talking about. Whether you like him or didn't like him, things happen. But he knew nothing about it. You don't have to embarrass our guest."
