The president of the United States was a former celebrity with obvious dementia. We were terrified that he’d blow up the whole planet.
Without revealing your actual age,what's something you remember that if you told a younger person they wouldn't understand?

Call yourself a "Thomist" again motherfucker. Tell me more about how "natural law" means international lawlessness. Say that "nations have a right to secure their borders" again. Imply that Carl Schmitt is a faithful Catholic philosopher. Make my day.

As all these Spotify Wrapped posts pop up I'd like to add that in the last calendar year their CEO invested $600 mil-plus in military AI drone technology, they ran ICE recruitment ads and refused to stop, and they've also done nothing to combat a huge influx of AI-generated music on the platform.
As all these Spotify Wrapped posts pop up I’d like to remind you that Spotify pays musicians about $0.003 to 0.005 per stream, they’ve demonetized 86% of the music on the platform, and their founder/ CEO has cashed out almost $400m in shares since last summer.

This article is about whether five-year-olds should be allowed to walk home by themselves from childcare. (The danger being cars, not strangers.) Imagine this in the US, these days.
"Während die Erzieherin aus dem Städtischen zur Alleingeh-Frage sagt: "Würde ich absolut nicht empfehlen“, holt die Leitung der Dorf-Kita routiniert den Zustimmungszettel raus: "Bitte hier unterschreiben“.
Das Stadt-Land-Gefälle ist also schon mal ziemlich deutlich. "

Aufsichtspflicht: Ab wann dürfen Kita-Kinder allein nach Hause gehen?
Mit Schuleintritt üben viele Familien fleißig den Schulweg. Aber wie sieht es ein paar Monate vorher im Kindergarten mit dem unbegleiteten Heimweg aus? Dürfen Vorschulkinder alleine nach Hause gehen?

A great thing about very popular lift-the-flap books is that when your family receives its third copy of the same text, it's fine, because the other two are already partially destroyed

If Republicans were sincere in their criticisms of Obama, they'd agree!
I keep saying it but chopping down the Presidency’s unilateral powers needs to be the #1 priority of the next real Congress.

This War Will Destabilize The Entire Mideast Region And Set Off A Global Shockwave Of Anti-Americanism vs. No It Won’t
George W. Bush may think that a war against Iraq is the solution to our problems, but the reality is, it will only serve to create far more.

Having Grok issue an “apology” is not just insulting and stupid (obviously Grok cannot actually “regret” anything, deeply or otherwise) but cowardly: It asks us to assign responsibility to an unconscious piece of software rather than the humans and institutions who should actually be blamed.
