Influenza? In 1918 the flu killed more people than in all of the military battles. 1/4 of all US military personnel contracted flu in training camps. It killed 45,000 soldiers.
Hegseth's incompetence puts Americans at risk.

Hope someone teaches the AI agent to always have a terminal window up with the command for formatting the boot drive ready at all times. Surely the AI agent won't blithely execute that.
This is so monumentally fucked up on every level I feel sick to my stomach.

you might be surprised by how often Tesla's data recording systems randomly break, fail to function properly, go missing, or are otherwise mysteriously unable to perform their functions precisely when they are needed most
then again, you might not be surprised at all

Is someone going to tell him that the flu killed more US troops in WWI than any battle did (and that war had chemical weapons so horrific that they were banned afterwards)?
I always thought Sun Tzu's "Art of War" was a little simplistic and obvious but it turns out yes, you do literally need to tell the Secretary of War "you need to feed your troops and keep them from being wiped out by preventable diseases"
Lethality! (Doesn't matter against whom, as long as someone dies)
It should be noted that Bovino is actually describing mass ethnic cleansing, not mass deportations.
Pete Hegseth, not just content with being War, is attempting to add Pestilence to his portfolio (maybe Famine, too, given the supply issues with the fleet).
Happy birthday Robert Smith, and thankyou for my wedding song ❤️

unless and until republicans agree to a ceasefire in the form of strict anti-gerrymandering provisions: fuck them to hell, squeeze every last drop of blood from the stone, lock them out of every seat you can
Oh, damn, now I'm all too aware. oh no... It's like becoming aware of the lidless eye.
Man, when you compare the bravery of every day Minnesotans to the overpaid cops it’s astounding
Unable to do this sort of meticulously construction (attention span/motivation) so I’m always very impressed by creations of this nature!
Impressive! & very cool!

Sorry it lives in my head rent free and I really think the rainbow infowars bag should have a cute lil frog on it @bencollins.bsky.social
Yeah, I’ve never quite got over the profound moral injury aspect of watching so many Americans absolutely refuse to even mildly sacrifice to help others during Covid - watching MAGAs somehow become even more evil was radicalizing.
And now the bastards are trying to destroy MRNA research.
Bloody ridiculous fuckery.
Yes! Maximal misery for Jones, please!
Hope Jones burns up a lot of cash in a futile effort.
The Infowars news is funny, yes. But more importantly, it is an outright rebuke of Alex Jones' evil.
It's testament to the strength and resilience of the Sandy Hook families who survived this bullshit for more than a decade as well as the Onion, which didn't give up on this for the last 18 months.
Gil Duran tweet: TLDR: Fascism in response to Palantir's long fascists screed on X.
"Your Account is Suspended" Message on X
The CEO of Palantir posted a fascist manifesto on X.
I pointed out that it was fascist—which resulted in a permanent suspension from X (my second time!).
So, when you hear the tweeters complaining that BlueSky is intolerant, remember why many of us came here in the first place.
2026: @TheOnion.com proposes licensing Infowars & its IP. Fictional CEO is claiming it’s theirs: theonion.com/at-long-last... but infowars.com hasn’t changed — yet.
With the help of the Sandy Hook families, The Onion has reached a long-awaited deal to take over InfoWars.
We've enlisted the help of @timheidecker.bsky.social, who will be InfoWars' Creative Director.
Please stand by for more.
