Since the end of WW2 war became a lot more of a gray zone. It's extremely rare nowadays for great powers to make official declarations of war, despite the myriad of events we colloquially call wars (Korea, Vietnam, Afghanistan, etc)
Enforcing a No Fly Zone is a 98/100 on the peace/war scale.

It's only "surprising" that the BLS stats are reported uncritically by news outlets as accurate despite the fact that they are literally always revised downwards after post-release review every month for decades, and dramtically downwards over the last two years.

Now when ChatGPT gaslights mentally ill people into killing themselves it can do so using avatars of their dead relatives as its mouthpiece. Truly this is the future we were promised.

Better late than never, I guess, but I wish there was more pushback earlier in the crisis.

The 50 year mortgage is a genius idea, however I have my own Modest Proposal. The housing prices are so high because the old people who have all the power and use all the healthcare have all the houses. Let's defend healthcare for 20 years and use the money we save to pay off the national debt.

Okay, I'm finally on board. We can't let colleges give people useless degrees that only serve to put people into crippling debt. No more business majors.

The irony that this the most Mexican Cartel-looking mf I've seen since the ICE raids began. Look at this goofy-ass loser.

The oath of office for all public officials, including the President's, very clearly says they must "faithfully" execute the duties of their office. There is no clearer example of oathbreaking than this statement, saying "SCOTUS said I can't, but I will anyways." That's not faithful. That's a crime.

This would be good news if Trump wasn't such a spineless little bitch that backs down at the slightest pushback.

On the topic of the Ukraine War and why a recent, noticeable decrease in hope around Ukraine's chances is not backed up by the reality of the situation on the ground, even despite all the diplomatic nonsense occurring lately and the current Russian battlefield initiative.

I can't believe we live in a timeline where this information is actually politically-relevant discourse, but just because the shooter made references to furries doesn't mean he's an LGBT left-winger.

Yes, this is the kind of decisive action the White House needs to take to find Charlie Kirk's killer. I assume that's what the emergency is.

I'll be honest guys, I'm slightly concerned that the President of the United States' foreign policy is vulnerable to the Jangling Keys strategy from other countries.

I asked how households typically respond to stagflation. Aside from "cautious borrowing", all of this describes the last 15+ years of American economic activity.
This just strengthens my conviction that all the metrics politicians and pundits use to track economic health are completely useless.
