Good god the kicker:

the way this makes sense for RFK is that "healthy people" and "sick people" are ontological categories.

Oh man, it would be really bad timing if we did have any intense maritime activity, tho. So glad that’s not happening.

The Trumpist ethos really is “I should be able to do whatever I want all the time and only me and no one else and no consequences either!”

p.s. the new Infowars is already staggeringly good (at theonion.info)

“CONAN HOLDS YOUR PRIVACY SACRED Our encampment processes personal data, wielding the power as cautiously as Conan wields his sword. Should you wish to cover your footsteps and forbid us from sharing your secrets, strike at the 'I wish to cloak my presence' rune. I WISH TO CLOAK MY PRESENCE”

Completely tossed at the official conan the barbarian website’s cookie notification window.

We have to prosecute them.

Remember that NASA was only able to *start* because the rich were being taxed at 90+% marginal rates.

Now, *you* pay a greater percent of your income as taxes than any billionaire.

You're just not gonna get NASA back without billionaires paying taxes again.

My eye rolls were basically acrobatics

Satellite Data Reveal Scope and Scale of US-Israeli Strikes on Iran New data analysis shows the level of destruction in Tehran and across the Islamic Republic — and the heightened stakes of a return to all-out war.

Satellite imagery reveals that US has damaged or destroyed an estimated 7,645 buildings in Iran (including 60 schools) while killing at least 3,300 individuals since 28 Feb. Nearly 3,000 of those buildings were in Tehran

Yet again I remind everyone (as Elizabeth does in her very next tweet) that "foreigners are corrupting our pure blood with weakness & disease" is Fascism 101. Not some variant, not some metaphorically similar thing, not some echo -- the thing itself.

Oh no, I’m so sorry. Pls give him extra smooches from me, an internet rando

This is such an important trend to notice. Look at what's happening in translation, for instance: the work of translating (highly skilled, challenging but fulfilling, well-compensated) is being replaced with the work of reviewing AI translations (same skill, unpleasant, poorly compensated). /1

Just as soon as I finish my book, I promise

Estimates show the 1918 flu epidemic killed about 45,000 US soldiers, about 38% of the total US military deaths in WWI. The flu and its secondary illnesses made up the majority of death by disease. Thousands (possibly as many as 36,000) died before making it from basic training to the battlefield.

Incredible to agree to do a “hot ones” interview without having ever seen a “hot ones” interview — delicious, delicious

This is a five-alarm fire and should be covered as such by the media.

I think if there’s any valuable product insight to speak of from the whole gen AI fiasco, it’s that people yearn for natural language command functionality. That doesn’t necessitate the whole radioactive toxic sludge of gen AI coating everything I touch, tho

"Your job is so fun," yes, but did you know I have to single handedly fight no fewer than sixth algorithms every day for the privilege of telling people to not set their beds on fire.

He’s been flirting with evolutionary psychology stuff for a while

Eight headlines tracing Tucker Carlson’s journey from hating Trump to loving Trump to calling him the antichrist to being attacked by Trump to apologizing for helping elect him

Ghouls! Ghouls all the way down!

I don't know if "writing propaganda for a fascist foreign power" officially qualifies as treason but I think it would be perfectly reasonable to legislate explicitly that "writing propaganda for a fascist foreign power" officially qualifies as treason

InfoWars Let me tell you a story. When I was a child, I suffered from night terrors. It was always the same dream: I could hear my family and neighbors wailing…

Some timeline stuff:
— We expect to get InfoWars.com after the judge clears it in a couple of weeks.
— We'll build a world of characters on the site and across social media. Tim Heidecker is in charge, and we have grand designs.
