"When Hugo Chávez was in power, the US government appropriated the term [Cartel de Los Soles] to attack the Venezuelan government, accusing it of collusion with international drug trafficking without any evidence to date to support the claim."
Drugs and gangs exist in Venezuela, but don’t be fooled. Trump arrested Nicolás Maduro to plunder our wealth | Andrés Antillano

Those of us who live outside US need to acknowledge the Right of America (MAGA, Republicans, people who claim to be liberal but are not...etc.) is a direct threat to our security, privacy, our way of life.
They will either destroy us, our world, or be complicit in doing so.

The secret to networking in video games is to meet lots of peers at a similar stage in their careers. Identify one who's really talented; you must then kill them and bury their heart under a crossroad. A thing wearing their face will contact you in 7 days and offer to elevate you, at a price.

以前想說時代力量雖然不完美,但是在所有有席次的小黨中,最關心弱勢族群的議題,最有可能改革台灣的,所以每次能投都會投他們
現在竟然墮落到去跟日本極右派打交道,而且知道了對方的政治立場後還去!
好失望...

Dave Chappelle: They said Saudi killed 1 journalist, but Israel killed far more journalists. Therefore nothing wrong with me taking Saudi money.
People on twitter: He's right. What a man.

And, he used genocide in Gaza to justify him going to Riyadh!

YouTube just gave me a recap of my 2025 and said I followed the issue of AI closely, because I watched a lot of @dungeonchill.bsky.social , which covers old obscure games, Overthink Podcast which is about philosophy, and Cool Giant, a skit comedy channel.

What?!

People often shit on Socialism and Communism by bringing up Soviet Union and Mao's China.
But these were bad implementations of the ideology.
Whereas Great Depression and the trashcan fire we're living in, is Capitalism applied according to the instructional manual!

Bigotry with shocking ignorance is a combination that always leads to catastrophes.
Unfortunately, it's also a combination manifested in many powerful politicians currently, both in East and West, global North and South.

It says something about the mentality of the mainstream Japanese media when they said "Director Abel from Spain", instead of simply "Director Abel Góngora"
