lot to unpack here, but I choose the funniest option, which is that RG3 is a theological unicorn who believes that Catholics are not Christian but Mormons are Christian.
Is he uh, aware of Notre Dame’s affiliation?

Only way it could be improved is if it had been made from the tattered remains of Confederates.
The best American flag is the battle flag of Tecumseh Sherman’s 23rd Corps, made from the tattered remains of Confederate banners.

I will go back to high school to vote for a student body president who campaigns on "Thaddeus Stevens didn't go hard enough."

every single day their actions make me more steadfast in a maximalist response.

I want every race in the country from Dog Catcher to President to be run by someone channeling Thaddeus Stevens.

"Free every slave—slay every traitor—burn every rebel mansion" and let this be the moderate position.
The official policy of the Trump Administration is ignorant bigotry. We’re asked, under principles including charity, to assume that people support the administration despite that policy, not specifically because of it. I am increasingly unwilling to extend that charity.

Do these people have any idea how fucking insane they sound to normal people?

Like if you grab a rand parent off the street and tell them that Ms. Rachel is turning kids into antisemites they’re gonna call the men in white coats.

the sad thing is that he probably *wasn't* laughing while typing it out. I think he's so thoroughly cooked himself on his hyper-curated reality tunnel that he *believes* this.
What can you even say? Obviously they’re full of shit, but I am impressed at the emptiness of this post. You knew he was laughing while typing it out. Just utter trash.

As everyone knows, the basis of capitalism is that if a product is great you'll need to cram it down everyone's throats (without consent) for years before finally being bailed out by the government
"All of this falls apart if humans don't adopt the tech. This is why you've seen Meta cram its lame chatbots into WhatsApp and Instagram. This is why Notepad and Paint now have useless Copilot buttons on Windows. This is why Google Gemini wants to "help you" read and reply to your emails."
Analysis: OpenAI is a loss-making machine, how can it survive?
Don't call it a bubble! Loss-making monster OpenAI is on the hook for $1.4 trillion (with a T) in compute commitments. How can this go on?

They're not hiding it, folks—straight up neo-Nazi advertising, from the font to the language to the 11 stars for the Confederacy. Then you have the DHS openly using white nationalist language of "remigrate", which means ethnic cleansing.

This is who MAGA is now.

Tbf if it was immediately followed up by directly linking it to corruption or by explicitly stating that the “others” are people in favor of corruption as a state of affairs, that might have worked.
How did the @nytimes.com editors let this sentence appear?

"Critics have likened Mr. Trump’s approach to extortion, while others have chalked it up as a cost of doing business with this administration."

This should be the moderate position.
Smash this administration so badly that its members flee the country and go into hiding because they know that if they appear in public they will be dragged into the street and made to stand for their treason against everything America holds dear

In newly leaked audio, Peter Thiel admits he urged JD Vance to ignore Pope Leo XIV on moral questions — including the ethical development of AI.

He goes even further, branding Leo “the woke American pope” and suggesting he’s a tool of the Antichrist.

It’s crazy to think about the crimes we’re going to learn about after this regime ends.

We’re already hearing about Watergate level crimes every week. Imagine what will come out after it’s over.

We’re going to need a full accounting of all that’s been done in violation of the constitution.

Elon Musk donated $277 million to Trump so he could steal the federal government’s data, dismantle the nation’s infrastructure, and stop foreign aid from going to nonwhite people. It’s a quid pro quo breathtaking in scope, corruption, and damage, & completely unprecedented in American history.
Bye bye, “DOGE”.

It no longer exists as a “centralized entity”, according to the Office of Personnel Management.

There are going to be prominent Democrats and mainstream media voices who insist that we have to "turn the page" and "forgive and forget" and they should all be roundly ignored, if not mercilessly mocked.

This is a very funny attempt to do the “you have to be an incredible pitcher to lose 20 decisions in a season” but without, you know, any of the same nuanced meaning.

And it has indeed come to pass.
Trump in a room with a very charismatic person results in like half a day of Trump agreeing with everything that person said, so this has the potential to be very, very funny.
