When the U.S. topples a government for the oil, how exactly do Chevron, Exxon, et al benefit? Is it just that the new puppet regime will offer lower leasing rates and less restrictions on capacity?

Why didn’t Apple make the iPhone Air the same screen size as the Pro Max? They could have fit more battery and a second camera

Were they worried about the weight, or do they just save themselves an easy upgrade for next year?

The most annoying new trend on the right is definitely "You don't hate ________ enough"

The Argument really looked at Semafor's terrible aesthetics and said "we can make an even worse green to read an article on".

Bluesky desperately needs a "collapse thread" option for threaded replies

It's insane that every mainstream media outlet saw Trump's 49% popular vote plurality and decided MAGA is now the overwhelmingly dominant culture forever (discounting those that are trying to wishcast this into reality)

If Twitter existed in September 2001, do we think the user base would be more or less Islamophobic than it is now?

Oh so you are a socialist now? Did you move even a millimeter to the left? Or are you just trying to take credit for Zohran's success by pretending as if he campaigned on your platform?
Underrated element of YIMBY success is that when people move in our direction we congratulate and thank them instead of huffing about how we were there first.
A certain type of guy is so allergic to coalition-building or taking a W that if anyone he deems uncool embraces his preferred candidate, it’s proof of something nefarious or insincere.

This is such disgusting framing. Fuck CNN and the pathetic leches there that consider themselves journalists

Bluesky desperately needs a "collapse comment" button, like Narwhal and Apollo for reddit

Starting listening to The West Wing Thing and it’s shocking how reactionary the show is. Having never watched it, my impression was the characters were “good liberals” who just valued decorum over impact

Listening to the recaps, every main character is a right wing prick

Dorothy telling Sandy and her mom that Jeffrey “put his disease in me” naked in the living room, repeatedly, is the most awkward moment in all of film

Can someone explain how best to scroll XHS' video feed? If I want to algo to learn my preferences, should I click into any video in the "Home" tab and scroll there, or should I just click into Trending?

There’s less convincing evidence that Dittman is not Musk than Chiendu not being Lis Smith

I never hate-follow accounts, so honestly the Twitter FYP was always pretty good for me

Until a few days ago. As part of Elon’s H-1B meltdown he’s clearly making big changes to the algo to push his sycophants’ garbage. I just had a fucking Greg tweet pushed to me

Is Trump getting the Biden treatment now? His statements are getting no coverage, while Elon and Vivek soak the spotlight

It feels like Trump is sundowning the same as Biden and is incapable of taking center stage anymore

Is there a way to remove the up arrow/refresh button? It overlaps with skyline content and is incredibly annoying

CNN has had this as their headline story for over 36 hours. They are scared shitless that this guy will never be found

Does Bluesky have a translate post feature, or is there a plug-in for it?

Might not have been the best idea for Yoon to try to do a military coup just a year after one of the highest grossing films in Korea was about how military coups are bad

Especially when that film inspired a trend for young people to show how angry the events in the film made them

Google is such complete garbage. In what world would I want to find the lyrics to this 2edgy4u cringe instead of the traditional parody version?
