Having billions of dollars tied up in personal fortunes, where they just sit idle most of the time, is an inefficient use of the world’s money supply, and who would have thought Altman would be the one to point it out?

…was probably the entire point of the exercise, from the regime’s perspective, and I can’t understand how anyone headed to the White House wouldn’t understand this.

A very clear statement that he values petty party politics more than leadership of the nation.

The un-patriot president. Anti-citizen one.

I’m under the impression that Acton had always been ahead in polls, which was why Ramaswamy’s campaign stooped to this desperate measure.

Those compressed gas jets would be ice cold.

I win the “Pointless overthrinking a meme” award. Again.

This is the fakest conversation I’ve ever heard.

Sundar’s strong jawline quivered, but he stood up straight, broadening his shoulders and tightening his shapely behind. “Please sir,” he said, with a tear in his eye, “Oceans are different, sir. Please don’t ask us to do that.”

Vance’s whole ‘values’ issue has been about failures of American parenting and absent fathers. Vance’s background and Acton’s background have some parallels; they both overcame traumatic childhoods and became successful, prominent adults.

If Vance actually held the principles he claims, he would be hailing Acton as an American success story that teaches the value of determination, grit, optimism, and hard work.

But he’s not doing that.

It means that some people are trying that – now.

My initial reaction was “Stephen … Crowder? Do I know that name?”

Maybe this is a bid to stay relevant, as much as it is anything else.

Yes. I believe I’ve seen some people say “scare quotes” to refer to actual quotations which are highlighted specifically because they are alarming. Which is understandable, I guess.

Clownworld is a real place and we’re all living in it

I wonder what the insiders would say the reason was? A poor showing in fox news interviews?

There’s no way they care about the not-really-a-lawyer thing, is there? Or about just being terrible at the job itself? I would have guessed those were assets.

Trump hung up on a ProPublica reporter after being asked whether his Florida mortgages were similar to those of others he had accused of fraud.

ProPublica got the president on the phone, somehow? What?

“My Dad runs the furry convention”

“We don’t say the stupidest things, we say things of common sense,” the president continued, just like a perfectly normal human who is not a secret lizard person.

When we say guns should be regulated to prevent mass shootings like this, we’re told the guns aren’t the problem. Mental health is the problem.

Well for once we caught one of these mental health victims alive. And now, close to 20 years after the fact, we’re going to address that mental health problem. By killing the guy. With guns.

And our dispute, apparently, is “Do we turn this mental health treatment into a gory spectacle, or do we do it on the down-low?”

It’s the Culture of Life ™.

Trump filed the lawsuit in 2022 against … people and entities he said conspired to undermine his 2016 campaign by falsely tying him to Russia.

But also

Trump sparked a wave of bipartisan shock and anger on Friday [9 Oct 2026] when he announced he was lifting sanctions on Russian diesel in a bid to lower prices

My half-baked theory is that many right-wingers don’t have any sense of aesthetics at all. Instead, they perceive signifiers. Which is why so many of them like ugly tacky garbage, as long as it looks shiny and new and expensive.

Plastic surgery can be a signifier – if it’s obvious plastic surgery. That’s where “Mar-a-Lago Face” comes from.

Well they’ve researched some new ways to kiss the emperor’s ass

It’s an interesting story, but the comments over there throw some plausible doubt on the “decompiled” aspect.
