  • Guy running for VP: "JD Vance may have sex with couches, dolphins, and even more disturbing things the electorate will learn about soon enough, but JD Vance will be damned if JD Vance ever uses the devil's pronouns."

  • Even worse, the entire concept of clocking in and out for ~8-hour shifts comes from factory jobs during the Industrial Revolution. Missing time meant that your station on the line wasn't being manned and was holding up production. While obviously some fields still operate like that, many modern professions are task-oriented and being forced to be physically present for an entire shift is entirely unnecessary.

  • Overthrow the tyrants that keep us in chains! Physically occupy residential property en masse and claim squatter's rights. Bring back crucifixion for white collar criminals on Wall Street. Raid the pharmaceutical industry's warehouses and distribute medication for free. In Minecraft, of course.

  • Since 2000, the FAA has levied about $163m in fines to Boeing for various safety and settlement violations, in some cases for failure to honor settlement agreements reached previously. This amounts to an average of $744,000 per year from 2000 through 2023. It’s peanuts for Boeing, the cost of doing business.

    Warnings, threats, and deadlines followed by the tiniest of tiny slaps on the wrist. So what if a few planes full of peasants drop from the sky?

  • "The problem isn't we, the Job Creators; it's you, the people. We have too many people consuming too much energy. The best strategy is to maximize our greenhouse gas emissions over the next couple decades to make the Earth uninhabitable for 99% of all human life. Once you're all dead, and we're safely in our island fortress bunkers with our slaves, the Earth can finally begin to heal."

  • Hoping this is part of a larger diplomatic strategy to secure a ceasefire. If Israel actually attacks Rafah, the civilian death toll will be catastrophic, and it will turn allies into enemies.

    This is the line that must not be crossed. The civilians retreated to this last point. Attacking it is genocide.

  • "Our company is invested in the dynamic strategy of using people to solve problems. Person Intelligence or PI, as we call it. We know our strategy is out of favor now, but given that it has worked consistently throughout all of human history, we are hopeful for the future."

  • Story time: I went to an Iraq War protest back in the day. Some people wandered out of the protest zone and (to be completely fair, I didn't see what started the altercation) got their asses beat by the cops. One brave kid stood out from the crowd and said, "Come on, guys! We have to help them!" We all looked at each other and were like, "Uh... no." The brave lad then charged in and promptly got his ass beat by the cops. The war still happened.
