And finally, the assault on Section 230. This is the endgame for independent speech.
If you repeal 230, you don’t hurt Google or Meta—they have the lawyers to survive. You destroy the small forums, the independent blogs, the dissenters. You make the cost of speaking the truth too high to bear.

my favorite thing about the benoit blanc movies is that they aren't really about benoit blanc. he is not grappling with demons from his past. we are not getting flashbacks to the husband whose murder he never solved. he just shows up and does his job like mary poppins for homicides

A massive dog (moose?) is trotting next to his human showing all signs of good health.
Suddenly, crisis!
He flops dramatically on the ground.
A big OOF noise.
A long agonized groan.
His leash is being tugged but Flop Dog is IMPERVIOUS.
But wait!
He's being offered a treat?
Miraculously cured!** (2)

Scam alert: Someone is pretending to be me and reaching out to authors. The pitch contains enough specific details that it sounds plausible at first.
This is not me! I'm so sorry to anyone who has fallen for this.

As with everything he says, this is wildly uninformed. Formula keeps getting better and saves lives. And modern research indicates that outcomes are roughly the same. There are reasons to breastfeed but your child isn’t suffering if you don’t
RFK Jr: "All of the ingenuity of corporate America has not produced an infant formula that is superior in nutrition and all the qualities that we want to the infant formula that God made, which is the infant formula in a mother's breast."

This man may be the most racist president this country has ever had, and twelve presidents owned slaves

this has been a consistent belief of mine for at least the last year: not only must you conduct gambling with bookies, it must be done at a seedy underground bar and the bookies must be named something that tells you exactly what you’re getting into

the Vito Four Fingers Theory of Gambling
I have come to the conclusion that all gambling should be made illegal again; or at the very least, must all be conducted in person at bookies.
The co-founder of Kalshi says: " The long-term vision is to financialize everything and create a tradable asset out of any difference in opinion."

thinking more about this: it is highly ironic that at the same time that it serves as a test case for the "unitary executive," this administration is all but being led by two subordinate officials with no immediate political accountability.

AI firms are, at present, hemorrhaging money at a rate we have never seen before in tech. The cost we pay isn’t even close to what it cost to built out an operate. Even if you just accept that it will eventually get cheaper — these companies still need to return on everything they’ve lost so far.

Yes, HID headlights are very bright but the bigger problem is the proliferation of gargantuan vehicles with 5’+ hood heights so that if you’re driving a normal sized car their headlights are at your eye level rather than seat level like they’re supposed to be.
