Joe Rogan, you should start a third political party. Do it!

Okay this isn’t really happening anymore so I can tell you how l had “internal ICE sources”: the 3000 very stir-crazy ICE agents were all going wild on Minneapolis Tinder. Local girls would match with them and string them along for intel. They loved to brag about what they were doing all day
bravo to the brave women of Minneapolis for setting up a makeshift intelligence network complete with burn protocols
The US is technologically inferior.
BYD's new 'Blade Battery 2.0' can add 400 km range in 5 minutes (70% charge) or full (97% charge) in 9 minutes.
If the US invested in infrastructure for people instead of war, like China does, we could also fill our electric car batteries up at 1500kW stations.
was that Melania speech one of Iran’s demands
Hey, I realize you're all busy with other stuff right now but I wanted to just take a minute to make it very clear that I am not and have never been close friends with the Boston Strangler
This is so well done. 👌
Good job Wisconsin! #GoPackGo!

Trump is taking a somewhat unique approach in his quest for the 2026 Nobel Peace Prize.
Good thing the FBI is laser focused on deporting short order cooks
Susan Collins grimly standing up, walking across her office, and with a heavy weight bearing down on her weary shoulders, moving her doomsday clock from "concerned" to "worried."
Genuinely, one of the best insights anyone has given me on the US is that the rest of the world does not understand it is actually two countries. The first is a Western advanced liberal democracy. The other a theocratic, impoverished, violent and corrupt third world country.
remember those other branches of government
What has to happen for people to drop the Pollyanna shit. He literally tried to overthrow the government. Then he bent Congress to supercharge ICE funding which he used to fill out his Gestapo and open concentration camps. Shooting citizens in the street. Destroyed USAID. What more do you need?
When you're so crazy, you've completely lost the conspiracy theorists
I feel sick to my stomach waiting around to see what atrocity Trump has in mind for the people of Iran this evening. It's hard to fathom our other elected leaders aren't able to check him in any meaningful way. It's an indictment not just of voters but of our whole system. We're ruled by a mad king.
Armageddon is terrible, but our only other option was diversity trainings at work.

recent Axios story on maternal health policy referenced "findings" that a majority of people trusted their doctors and nurses. On the surface, there's nothing unusual about that. What wasn't originally mentioned, however, was that these findings were made up. Clicking through the links revealed (as did a subsequent editor's note and clarification by Axios) that the public opinion poll was a computer simulation run by the artificial intelligence start-up Aaru. No people were involved in the creation of these opinions. The practice Aaru used is called silicon sampling, and it's suddenly everywhere. The idea behind silicon sampling is simple and tantalizing. Because large language models can generate responses that emulate human answers, polling companies see an opportunity to use A.I. agents to simulate survey responses at a small fraction of the cost and time required for traditional polling.
As I’ve said a million times, I’m not particularly against smart uses of AI
This is the stupidest use I’ve seen yet though
Gotta make these for real
So, thing that is apparently better understood inside academia than outside of it:
International students pay sticker price. Most domestic students do not. International students are subsidizing the education costs for domestic students, as per student governmental funding drops.
Depluralize a movie:

Whew. That should solve it!
This is a devastating self-own
Yeah, but have you seen what she wears.

she was willing to stoop this low and still got fired.
