Somehow pre-Plaza Accords Japanese industrial policy has returned.
there's an old stereotype of china as outcompeting america because of masses of cheap labor. but as michael pettis puts it, contemporary chinese firms don't act as if labor is free. they act as if capital is free
“Yang Jiemin, VP of the state-owned company behind the port, said its highly automated operations require 60% fewer workers than traditional ports. It underscores one advantage Chinese companies have in deploying AI versus the U.S.: no independent labor unions.” www.wsj.com/tech/ai/ai-r... (🎁🔗)

In 2025, a crackhead commando unit was sent from prison by a military court for a crime they did commit. These men promptly escaped from a mediocre security truck to the Leningrad wilderness. Today, still wanted by the government, they survive as soldiers of fortune...

"Line go up" is an aim of most societies, it's just what that line represents (national resources, investment returns, GDP, etc) and who has access to it that varies.

Trans pride Zaku from the Gundam Assemble series of minis !
It's was a really fun mini to paint, the sculpt is pretty great, despite some simplifications made to allow the model to be push fit (the gap between the cable and the legs isn't hollowed)

Honest question (not really) is there any ethnic cleansing going on in the world right now where KSA isnt somehow backing one or more of the guilty parties?
UAE, mostly I think. I’m sure KSA has a thumb in the pie as well.

Fine. You all win. I’m logging off for the day because I‘m a big smelly man who’s also a Nazi and a bigot because I liked it better when Groypers didn’t have 1,770 nuclear weapons on hair-trigger alert. Feel free to brag in your discords about how my jimmies have been rustled and I was owned.

insightful thread I’ll be thinking about a while here:
I watched Yarvin’s Sheldonian lecture. What struck me is that he’s describing real institutional failures, but he completely misdiagnoses the cause. He treats “democracy” as the problem, when the actual collapse is upstream.
See also Curtis Yarvin's remarks in a recent Oxford lecture:
"Say what you want about MBS, he's quite an effective king I think in a lot of different ways. Um love the Ritz thing, the whole Saudi embassy thing, I don't know, but I mean he was a journalist". [Giggles]
