When I'm not taking things apart and not putting them back together again, I'm writing, reading, taking photos, or wrangling animals.

Amazon: 30,000 Americans laid off. 12,000 H-1B visas approved. Same window. Meta: 16,000 out. 5,000 visas in. Microsoft: 3,426 out. 5,000 visas in. AI is taking the jobs. And the ones AI doesn’t take, they’re offshoring. This is accelerating rapidly before our eyes.

The same two things are said repeatedly by CEOs and politicians and news media. But never at the same time. 1) AI will automate millions of jobs out of existence. 2) America must bring in unlimited H-1B's. Both cannot be true. They don't make any sense together.

John Boyega implies Disney ruined his Finn character in the new Star Wars series because of racism: "You guys knew what to do with Daisy Ridley, you knew what to do with Adam Driver. But when it came to Kelly Marie Tran, when it came to John Boyega, you know f*ck all. So what do you want me to say? What they want you to say is, ‘I enjoyed being a part of it. It was a great experience…’ Nah, nah, nah. I’ll take that deal when it’s a great experience. They gave all the nuance to Adam Driver, all the nuance to Daisy Ridley. Let’s be honest. Daisy knows this. Adam knows this. Everybody knows. I’m not exposing anything."

@midwestern_ope 100% better than a 4 way stop. The only problem is some people don't seem to understand that cars in the roundabout aren't supposed to stop and people entering the roundabout are supposed to yield to those in the roundabout. Literally only 2 rules and people can't figure it out

@BreannaMorello Did you get suspended for this? I said something similar about someone who was already dead and got suspended for promoting violence.

@zerohedge That's not the question. The correct question is, "Will there be any consequences if we do _____?" And the answer is no.

RE: Data Republican I am a huge Data Republican (small r) (“DR”) fan. I know many of you are as well. But I’m not sure everyone fully understands the sheer bravery, brilliance and audacity of this deaf every-woman. You see, the government you elect is not what actually governs you. For every area of government (no matter how specialized or arcane), there are powerful lobbying groups, think-tanks, non-governmental organizations ("NGOs"), specialized media outlets, university-sponsored centers and other ostensibly "independent" organizations that act and behave as an unaccountable form of government outside the reaches of the electoral process. While these organizations claim to act in the public interest, each and everyone of them is a self-serving oligarchy that is designed solely to promote the interests of those on the inside--genuine public interest be damned. This is America of course, and freedom of speech and freedom of association are fundamental to our freedoms. However, over many decades, these organizations have found “legal” ways to obtain trillions of your taxpayer dollars in the form of “grants” for “studies,” “policy symposiums” and all manner of other taxpayer-funded activities designed specifically to circumvent the policies the American people VOTED FOR and to perpetuate policies and activities that the average American has explicitly rejected. These activities occur on both the Left and the Right, of course, but over time they have become the near exclusive domain of the Left. These organizations serve as taxpayer/Soros-funded, income-generating activities for Leftists whenever they are out of power, and if/when Leftists seize control of the Presidency or Congress, these organizations are the proverbial bullpens from which powerful Leftists full of the ideas you thought you once eliminated can storm right back into the actual process of governance, implementing all of those dark and mysterious policies that your tax dollars were secretly funding while the Leftists were otherwise off howling in the wilderness. Call it the Deep State. Call it unconstitutional. Call it theft of your hard-earned taxpayer dollars. Call it the evil of the Soros family. Call it what ever you will, but know this—it is a monstrous Leviathan sitting right outside the scope of your votes, dedicated to negating your votes at your own expense, in the most diabolical manner possible. It is the state outside the state. It is self-serving. It does not care about you. It only cares about itself. And its power is VAST. You see it right here on X—you see the swarms of fire ants that come spilling out with destruction in mind whenever anyone uncovers the anthill they are lurking under. And right at the heart of that is our hero, DR. I have been actively following politics virtually my entire life, and never before has there been anyone quite like DR. Through dispassionate data analysis, the smart use of AI and a relentless drive for fairness and justice, DR has done more to shine a light on the nature of this extra-governmental Leviathan than any other person I can ever recall. For her efforts, she has been doxxed by a mendacious Rolling Stone article. She has endured a concerted effort to destroy her husband’s totally unrelated business. She and her husband have received LITERALLY THOUSANDS of death threats. She and her family had to go into hiding. An ordinary woman would have backed down in fear. But not DR. They just made her mad. And an angry genius is an enemy no one wants to face. She still stares them down, day in and day out. Her book will be out soon. Buy it. Buy copies for your friends. Buy copies and leave them on street corners and airport tables. AMERICANS NEED TO KNOW THE TRUTH. DR’s book may well end up being the most important and influential American book on politics since “Common Sense." If America is going to survive, we must ALL shine a bright light on this extra-governmental Leviathan, grab a hold of its fangs, and drain the venom out of them. This is not playtime people. This is life and death. We glorify the warrior who does great deeds on the battlefield, as we should. But know that bravery comes in many forms, and as DR has stood in the fire and endured real threats to her life and existence, her audacious bravery is every bit as real as those heroes we see being decorated by the President. Right now, in the USA, no unelected person is doing more to ensure freedom than Data Republican. You can support her by subscribing to her account, but you can also support her by being as brave as she is. I aspire to maybe show such bravery myself some day. We all should aspire to that. One day she will earn the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Together we can defeat The Beast.

What makes me suspicious about this kit is it says it includes 6 photos of werewolves. But two of the actors named were Karloff and Lugosi. Karloff never played a werewolf. Lugosi was, technically, a werewolf in The Wolf Man but he just looked like a wolf when changed.
