Fuck you, I do what I want

And you will be heckled accordingly

Only if you eat it in the closet

Are hot dogs gay?

Hot dogs, brauts, really any kind of sausage. Also zucchini, carrots, you better believe egg plants are right out.

No more muffellata munching for me

The comic is depicting a mother and daughter. No ages are given.

The daughter is artistically portrayed as smaller and more child-like than the mother, though. So consider that, from a psychological perspective.

even after this war decimates the US economy

War has traditionally been a boon to the American economy, as the US workforce is heavily integrated into the Military Industrial Complex. The surge in state spending under the Trump administration, combined with the construction boom from AI, is what’s currently keeping us out of recession. And domestic oil exports only benefit when countries like Kuwait and Qatar can’t export fossil fuels.

Losing Vietnam didn’t teach them anything

It’s the Max Bialystock strategy. You win by losing. Another multi-decade long military engagement means multiple trillions of dollars invested in equipment, technology, and private contractors.

Iran, Ukraine, Venezuela, I guess Cuba is next, maybe we get to Nigeria or North Korea down the line… the wars never end and the profits never stop flowing.

Florida Rep. Neal Dunn faced a terminal illness and that he had helped him get lifesaving care because he liked him but also “needed his vote.”

All these months of people insisting Trump is on death’s door and the breaking story is about a hack Congressman with a treatable condition. Lolz.

Any obligations you feel to do the thing is entirely caused by your own insecurities.

All children have a natural inclination to imitate their parents. It’s a basic instinct of childhood development.

Is “coffee addiction” the new meme? I’ve been seeing this pop up over and over again across social media.

definitely not successful because they are smart.

I mean, “smart” is a relative term. They were smart enough to find the money hose and latch onto it. But the skills necessary to schmooze $250M out of a creditor are fundamentally different than the skills necessary to manage a workforce or meet the terms of the contract.

You can call it the Peter Principle or the Principle-Agent Problem or any number of other business short-hands for “skills mismatch”. The bottom line is that “meritocracy” in a capitalist system boils down to rent-seeking effectiveness. That’s the skill set that is rewarded. And it produces legions of people who train and compete for the opportunity to maximize rent-seeking returns.

This guy fumbled the ball in a spectacular fashion. But I have no doubt he’ll get back on his horse and find another pool of labor to extract wealth from. Because, if he’s a CEO, he’s honed the skills needed to do exactly that.

What we get to mock him for is his failure, not his decision. If he’d retrieved a useful answer from the ChatGPT answer lottery, or the courts had been stacked with his friends such that any answer he pulled was considered the right one, he’d be hailed as a business genius on the front page of the WSJ rather than scoffed at in the back pages of 404media.

The CEO will be fine at the end of the day.

The workers are going to get fucked, though.

Can’t believe a bunch of English expats would recreate feudalism.

A nation of renters and landlords.

No, no. That’s normal. If it was weird, they’d have circled it in red.

ICE just got an extra infinity billion dollars.

School:

computers,

social studies banned because woke,

math gutted because too difficult,

gym all funds moved to football program,

etc eliminated to focus on standardized testing

I love Texas education! Please, officer, don’t shoot! I’m saying the pledge again, for real this time, I promise!

School is so boring!

Physics Colloquia: Particle Accelerators: Pushing the Frontiers of Physics

College was probably the most exciting period of my life. If I didn’t have to pay to be there, I’d have never left.

SUGAR. Just try cutting it out of your life
