@Socialmatrix189 @sentdefender Shut the fuck up AI slop

@sentdefender The DOJ dropping the criminal probe into Powell and referring it to the Fed’s IG shifts this from potential charges to internal review. In similar past cases with other agency heads, these handoffs often end quietly without much fallout, especially this close to a term expiring.

The U.S. Department of Justice announced Friday that it has dropped its criminal investigation of Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, related to the multi-billion-dollar renovation of the central bank’s headquarters in Washington, instead referring the case to the Fed’s Inspector General.

@Afinetheorem @DKThomp That’s a really intelligent point. I no longer care about getting bogged down in another long war in the Middle East because Waymo.

@DKThomp Problem is that social media = depressed outrage cycle gets attention = people believe "permacrisis crisis decade. It's really been one fucking thing after another". Unemployment is 4.3%, global war deaths are at an all time low, cars drive themselves, yet "permacrisis"?!

New newsletter: HOW THE 2020s BROKE OUR BRAINS It's the Tragic Twenties, and Americans can't stop feeling like hot garbage. - The UMich consumer sentiment survey is now at its lowest rate on record - The Fed's job satisfaction survey is at its lowest rate on record - Both the General Social Survey and the World Happiness Survey have found that happiness in the US plunged in 2020 and has since been mired at levels significantly below previous decades You shouldn't assume that your favorite pet issue is the main culprit here. Conservatives might point to cultural changes, like the decline of marriage and religiosity, but those have been going on for decades. The left might reach for wage inequality, but that has actually narrowed in the last six years. This can't even primarily be about phones, since what's most clear in the data set is something that changed this decade, not last decade. I spent a long time reading, talking to people, and doing my own research, and I think the most parsimonious explanation I can provide is this: The Pandemic Never Ended. This thesis has three parts. TPNE 1: The biological antagonist of COVID gave way to the economic antagonist of inflation, and after decades of coming to rely on lowflation and meager wage growth for low-income workers, price levels have increased 3x faster this decade than in the previous 40 years, and economists simply have to accept that inflation makes people angrier than it used to. This isn't even a strictly American phenomenon. Around the world, incumbents have lost power faster than any post-WWII period, as affordability concerns bludgeon their electorate. The few countries where happiness levels have increased in the western world in the last 6 years have had some of the lowest levels of inflation. TPNE 2: Institutions down, individualism up: The 2020s have seen trust plummet for practically every institution, along with growing distrust in strangers, and rising alone time and at-home time. At best, community offers a buffer in times of crisis. But today, the absence of community—and the triumph of a tech-enabled, hyper-introverted atomism—makes every crisis feel more existential and unsolvable. And that's a problem bc... TPNE 3: The 2020s have been the permacrisis crisis decade. It's really been one fucking thing after another, hasn't it? Pandemic, inflation, interest rates, Ukraine, Gaza, Iran, AI. Meanwhile, phones give us constant contact with both the scary news cycle and the panic-inducing fears and anxieties of the commentariat. Inflation makes today's life feel harder to live. The news cycle makes tomorrow's world scarier to live through. And the post-pandemic decline of institutions and acceleration of toxic individualism weakens our socio-emotional immune system to deal with all of it. TLDR: The pandemic never ended, and it's left us with the Tragic Twenties.

@Anaslqbal @mimmahees @Osinttechnical Have your programmer make you less corny and gay

@mimmahees @Osinttechnical Go seethe harder, hater. Your tears fuel my prophecies. 🤡💩

In a sudden move, the Secretary of the Navy, John C. Phelan, is departing his role effective immediately.

@Anaslqbal @Osinttechnical AI slop account based in Europe. Suck a dick

@Osinttechnical Business bro lasted 13 months playing Navy CEO. Now a real warrior takes over. Thanks for the cuts—don't let the door hit your yacht on the way out.

@horridpeasant @KTforBiden @politico @alexanderburns Probably a bot but yeah shut the fuck up for the rest of your life. Bernie 2028

@KTforBiden @politico @alexanderburns shut the fuck up already

Does Mark Cuban want Kamala Harris to run for president in 2028? “No,” he tells our @alexanderburns. “Don’t remember, don’t care,” he said when asked to recall her health care message during her 2024 campaign. “Those days are gone.”

@PepperOncino23 @sentdefender You’ll never get a response. @sentdefender posts some usual information, but it’s bread and butter is screenshotting and quoting the President’s posts word-for-word with no additional analysis or insights. It’s a clickbait grift account.

@sentdefender Other than sharing someone else post, tell us what makes it unusual? All military aircraft communicate regularly during peacetime and wartime. Nothing unusual about that

Seemingly unusual radio traffic tonight by U.S. Strategic Command (STRATCOM).

@Bahia_Boy @polybore @Osinttechnical We need to get twitter user @polybore a key role in the Pentagon. Yesterday. My people are on it.

@polybore @Osinttechnical Wow they should start checking with you first from now on.

The US is considering a deal that would exchange $20 billion in frozen funds for Iran’s stockpile of enriched uranium -Axios

@AlfieShelb64817 @SollenbergerRC How you can put your hand on your hip like that and not internally go “oh what the fuck am I doing” within .0002 seconds is deeply troubling

@SollenbergerRC The dude on the right should get a refund from wherever he got photo posing lessons.

Flash poll: Where did Cory Mills get the Bronze Star Medal that he wore to the 2019 Association of the United States Army Marshall Award annual dinner? You can only pick one: a. Online b. On the internet c. Going online and buying it on the internet

@NotionsofNick @AdamSchefter Sorry nerds, we’ve got more jerseys to sell

@AdamSchefter No more gradient numbers and the shoulder horn comes to a point in the front.

@maxdubler Didn’t MA lose like net 50k residents last year? Or over the course of a few years?

“Blue states have built vanishingly few new homes per capita compared to red states over the past 35 years” is a basic fact of housing policy that more people need to understand.

@FantasyBroAaron @bobbysboucher @Connor_J_Hughes Gotta have a real, informed take if you want to be a serious fantasy analyst.

@bobbysboucher @Connor_J_Hughes Maybe maybe not. It's the jets we're talking about

Sources: Texas Tech pass rusher David Bailey was supposed to have a 30 visit with the #Jets. The team decided to cancel that visit.

@PawtucketSox @friedshrimpoboy Ruining the family name with his lack of ingenuity.

@RareP7000 @friedshrimpoboy My uncle is literally Doug Coors III

I asked my uncle who works at Coors if they could do this again His response? “We can’t, we don’t know how to”

@friedshrimpoboy @PawtucketSox As if the uncle isn’t some assembly line worker

@PawtucketSox He's acting like they lost sacred texts and can't figure this out lol

@sktradingYT @AFpost Got some repressed urges on the mind?

@AFpost Like good goyims. Yet they call america a free country. What a joke. Only free to do adultery, porn , gay marriages, gender mutation and drugs.

Benjamin Netanyahu said that JD Vance personally relayed the details of the peace talks to him on way back from Islamabad: “He reported to me in detail, as members of this administration do every day.” Follow: @AFpost

@MassJumbo Bad faith argument from a retard

Gotta be honest “we’re gonna kill the new residents of the new housing if we don’t get our way” might be the single most unhinged reason for opposing housing I’ve ever seen. And to say it in a court filing of all places!

@weirddreamteam @edels0n Blaming the left for DOGE the funniest instance of cognitive dissonance I have ever seen

@edels0n Do you not remember there were entire protests about doge cutting programs? This is what the entire left wanted. They don’t want any spending cut

Reminder

@DomenGolder @dccommonsense He exacerbates the everyday fears that people have about our government on his radio show and sells them supplements and other products to “counter” the effects. It’s textbook grifting

@dccommonsense I just don’t think Alex Jones has ever been a grifter. He says what he believes. Sometimes it’s outlandish and ridiculous. Sometimes it’s the truth. But I don’t think it’s a grift.

I think we're at the "cats and dogs...living together!" stage of things now when this guy is saying this stuff. Has the grift angle shifted or something? Or are they all fleeing a sinking ship? If this is what the tea leaves are looking like, how do we read this?

@bostonlexsox Smart franchise. Syphon off everything from your smaller, much dumber competitor

the dodgers really do take EVERYTHING from the red sox.

@Rodriweiss1 @willmenaker Nice dude you said the bit
