@BigMeanInternet Liberalism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: one must have infinite empathy for the train shitter, and one must have no empathy for the train shittee

Ireland, like most Western countries, has long nursed a pathetic caste of delusional cranks who instinctively grovel in awe before whichever basket-case tyranny most perfectly mirrors their own dysfunction. In this case, it's a boy-band too.

@Jeem196 @aakashgupta "Traffic isn't unsolvable ... the issue is [the core driver of the problem that is, in its very essence, unsolvable]"

@aakashgupta Traffic isn't unsolvable, it's completely drivers' fault. Roads are designed just fine. The issue is a few distracted/slow drivers lead to a chain reaction and backs up everyone else.

Game designers figured this out decades ago and it cost millions in failed launches. Will Wright built SimCity with a fully accurate traffic simulation. Testers hated it. The cars behaved realistically, which meant nobody could build a functioning city because real traffic is an unsolvable nightmare. He had to make the simulation dumber before the game became fun. The tension is permanent: the more accurately you model a system, the more it punishes the participant. Real medieval economies kept 90% of the population in subsistence farming. A historically accurate fantasy world doesn't produce heroes. It produces serfs. Tolkien solved this by making his economy deliberately vague. No one knows what a gold coin buys in Gondor. That ambiguity is a design choice, not a shortcut. The Reddit post is funny. The lesson underneath it is one of the hardest problems in simulation design: fidelity and fun are opposing forces, and you have to pick which one wins.

@dril And of course, I have to end with this one

@marionumber4 Putting these two as equivalent tells us more about your (lack of) moral fiber than you wanted us to know

MAGA when protestors are executed

@pixelflash @LDSLaw No

@LDSLaw Trump has 20 good years left, with medical and science technology progressing at 100x due to AI......maybe 30-40. Think about that.

Donald Trump, at almost 80, is going to die sooner than we think. Bookmark this. When Trump passes, there will be an absolute ORGY of grotesque delight on the Left and even among moderates. They will celebrate in the streets and hold parties. It will be a macabre display, such as we've never seen yet. It will make their celebration of Charlie Kirk's murder look like your great aunt Mildred's church tea party. Mark my words.

@rwpowell @MaxNordau

@AndreaInOregon @MaxNordau It's very rare to find a Catholic auther. Most of them are Lautherans.

No surprise here: Carrie Prejean HezBoller is promoting E. Michael Jones, a notorious Holocaust denier/supporter who has been condemned repeatedly by the Church. It's unclear if she's even aware of this, but these are the kind of errors you make when you "became" a "Catholic" five minutes ago.

@AbwYl10389 Genocide is when queue

Never forget how Israel starved 2.2 million people in Gaza. Repost this. Please I beg you

@KSantal @ScottMcConnell9 Do you ... do you know what a false flag is

@ScottMcConnell9 "October 7" was a false flag. Like Charlie Kirk used to say, "Prove me wrong." USA never investigated, just shoveled $50 billion for lies about beheaded babies. This is a different thing. People are stunned by Trump's craziness starting this. Also, US troops are dead.

More than a little puzzled how Muslim adjacent left could mobilize thousands in the street in support of Hamas murderers and now crickets.

@PJDeU2 Haha, I remember that guy

I see something good, I'm sharing it. Because this Cuba expedition makes the Welsh nurse who begged the Egyptian soldiers to let him into Gaza look intelligent.

@GoodVibePolitik It is a failure of socialism

For so long I heard those supporting the blockade “go to Cuba you’ll see” and after being on the ground I can say that this blockade is one of death that must be ended. What I have seen in Cuba is not a failure of socialism, but the success of a deliberate starvation campaign.

@NathanJRobinson Champaign socialist dismayed to observe actual socialism

The blackout here in Cuba is eerie and disturbing. Whole streets with zero light, every window dark, and then you see shapes moving in the darkness and realize people are trying to live their lives. I cannot believe how cruel this US policy is. We could stop this.

@creatine_cycle Srini should rewind a bit. The fact that "taste" exists and we can talk about it already shows the spark of the divine

All the rich commies going to Cuba to preserve the oppressive legacy of Fidel Castro and keep the proles down is so on the nose I feel like we're watching a South Park episode.

Even in Havana, with the power cutting out shorty after our gig, the message of solidarity to Palestine remains the same ❤️

@Hisham18754 @ThomasVLinge Yes, yes, it's because of the US and it's not because communism fails every time it is tried

@ThomasVLinge People like you are doing these activists work for them, you just spreading the word and more people will know that there is a food shortage and a power blackout and they will find out that it’s because of the US blockade.

This is so embarrassing. They came to Cuba in their hundreds, carrying less food then they would end up eating there, only to tour around in little buses and party at private concerts while Cubans continue to suffer repression, poverty, shortages and power cuts. How much electricity did this little concert cost btw?

@fwxainthosis Completely insane how much dirtier the womens' game is

They called this an intentional foul, 2 free throws and possession. A 2-year-old could see this wasn’t intentional.
