This is, legitimately, one of the best books I've ever read, and whether you're reading along with us or not, I hope you check out "Unwomanly Face of War." It's an absolute banger.

The Register — hardly an uncritical booster of tech companies! — has the number of ChatGPT users *alone* at 900 million PER WEEK, 35M of them paying. Tell me you think all of the billion people, across all of these platforms, are being forced to use these tools. www.theregister.com/2026/01/17/o...
ChatGPT will get ads. Free and Go users first

2. ICE has not paid any third-party providers for medical care for detainees since October 3, 2025. Last week, ICE posted a notice on an obscure government website announcing it will not begin processing such claims until at least April 30, 2026.

even cooler, if biden had just lost in 2020 trump would have been relatively constrained by the "adults" of his first term, and exiting the stage in 2024 spent and wearing covid inflation and the various wars. letting this fuck off the hook then running again with brain damage made it 100x worse

Here’s Warner (and Kaine) getting dragged tonight by Virginia’s greatest State Senator. (Context he and Kaine are trying to tamp down Virginia redistricting to get more dems in US House of Representatives$

I have the utmost respect for Senator Kaine and Senator Warner but we do not need “coaching” on redistricting coming from a cuck chair in the corner. How about you all stay focused on the fascist in the White House and let us handle redistricting in Virginia. 10-1

Steve and Rob: Great Bobbycast. I actually went and bought this year's Dave's picks because you said you would podcast them. Best news I've heard in a long time.

I was told this man was a once-in-a-generation talent who could deliver MAGA from its worse impulses while governing as a sensible right-centrist... Can't believe the "white rage and destroy UVA" platform didn't prove more durable... I will not learn any lessons from this outcome...
