Does anyone know whether it's actually Kid Rock secretly running the White House?

Starlink antennas are currently sold at the corner office supply store. Will he fuck this up the same way he tanked Tesla sales?!

Musk’s SpaceX threatens to withhold mobile service from Australia A SpaceX executive says Australia would be “a major outlier in the international community” if the company is forced to pay for critical satellite spectrum.

The US auctioned its spectrum, now the oligarch threatens: "Elon Musk’s SpaceX warns Starlink could bypass Australia if made to pay high price in spectrum auction" share.google/NHrNzSroLjvQ...

They thought the day laborers down on the corner, or the workers who didn't have contracts would be affected. They did not imagine, in the USA, that anyone who wasn't white would potentially be rounded up. White Republican women in Texas did not imagine mothers being denied life-saving medical care

There's something in what you say that's very much in common with Republican mentality... a generally indifferent attitude towards issues until they directly impact someone they know or a direct family member (or property). And the issue can't be fixed simply by working harder or having more money.

Some critics would call slightly charred on the edges and brown in the middle "arson".

@krismeana.bsky.social looking for clip on YouTube to share because few people I know F2F are on BlueSky. Of course, the Coachella folks could theoretically get it pulled since they own the show.

When I get back to the table, can I thrust my hands in her face and say "MAN, smell this!!!"

lol I just watched the video of Iggy Pop at Coachella. Did he break his back or mess up his leg or something? Loose skin on full display.

Peak viewing flexibility was when Netflix first started streaming and video stores were still around. Nflix and a high-end video store in San Francisco had pretty much EVERYTHING. Once streaming started & video stores died, the producers withheld from NFlix, and everyone set up their own paywalls.

Remember when we used to chase around animals and forage for tasty plants? Nobody went to the gym back then!

The inability to differentiate between the two seems to go all the way to Congress.

"dragging that which is sacred into darkness and filth" Pope warms up for UFC cage match.

Conversion therapy, like all therapy, is 100% successful at generating income for therapists.

Free speech and conversion therapy: this is an issue for the professional societies however the professional societies have extremely low standards for behavior. Whether or not they've decided its usefulness, they still allow it, and many other questionable practices. Therapy is all the rage now.

Corner store... you mean ground floor? uh... sorta. [Trump tower] "The building contains several establishments for eating or drinking, including 45 Wine and Whiskey (formerly Trump Bar) in the lobby, and Trump's Ice Cream Parlor, Trump Cafe, and Trump Grill in the basement."

It's like Iran's nuclear stockpile and capabilities. Destroyed, yet still a great reason for more bombing. Or was that about regime change?

Don't they call them bodegas in NYC?

US tech firms successfully lobbied EU to keep datacentre emissions secret Legally questionable confidentiality clause adopted almost word for word from demands of Microsoft and trade groups

Remember the story about VW cheating on emissions testing? (or was that news in the US?)

Thanks to what appears to be a woman for debunking this outrage-invoking headline that misrepresents the scope of the problem.

I'm thinking of Gisèle Pelicot - at some point she thought her husband was a decent fellow.

Podcasts are great for when taking a walk or performing mindless tasks.

Podcasts: Strict Scrutiny? On with Kara Swisher? Future Hindsight?

lol I just saw the rest of the thread including penguins.

I worked for a foundation for three years. A person highly regarded in some circles got on her knees to tie the shoe of a benefactor. She treated the Executive Director as hired help. Targeted, strategic humility.

Maybe prestigious institutions attract some extreme personality types who are primed for battle with each other.

I say they're (both) real, but maybe not in the way we imagine them to be. And we sure as hell didn't have a lot to do with earlier mass extinctions, but we may very well be the cause of our own mass extinction. Some bird species haven't survived us, but birds as a morphological type may survive us.

Yes. I'm learning this but haven't quite wrapped my head around the notion that it can potentially be a conscious, winning strategy?! Until someone (Dorothy? Toto?) looks behind the curtain.
