when will all the post-liking account-following thirstbait thotbot accounts realize that we can *SEE* that they are based in Nigeria/Africa/Mumbai/Pakistan?

@byteofari on a *cold* rainy day? hot cocoa, grilled cheese sandwiches and tomato bisque, lightweight entertainment, curling up with my GSDs.

fill the blank: nothing beats _____ on a rainy day 😇

he's right about this. he doesn't go further, into the near-impossibility of reforming the hostility-convenient passages out of Islam, but he's dead right about this point.

@tuuu28283 I'm semi-retired and live very simply. I do about 36 hours per week.

アメリカの兄弟達 兄弟達は、基本的に何時間労働くらいですか？？ 僕は平均11時間くらいです！

@DeshaisEvan @tanpukunokami get better soonly!

I'm going to chock this up to the fact that I've been running a fever all weekend and have the mental capacity of a slug. I said, wokeness, meant as inclusively as possible. But, Once again, I'll give props where they are due. Your explaination is simple, and encourages other to give more thought to the problem.

One button. America gets to delete one national nightmare. ① Medical bills ② Student debt ③ Woke nonsense ④ Rent prices Which one goes first?

@Jack_Box_2026 @MarcoFoster_ @grahamformaine @grok no, I've been wasting my mortal time with you - an error I can easily rectify. and shall, immediately.

@G_Mac_Promish @MarcoFoster_ @grahamformaine @grok Grok again misses the mark. Currency is valued by currency buyers. You talk about money and waste on an idiotic AI program.

Graham Platner calls out Jeff Bezos: “There’s absolutely no question that if we target the wealth where it has been hoarded for decades and put it into social programs like healthcare, childcare, paying teachers what they are worth, we will absolutely improve the lives of working Americans. I think what he is pitching is propaganda. It’s meant to protect himself and protect his crony friends and we’re gonna come after them for it”

@Jack_Box_2026 @MarcoFoster_ @grahamformaine Monetary inflation is _by_definition_ the sustained expansion of a nation's currency supply - typically in excess of its working value. hey, @grok - could you explain this in monosyllabic words for this JackBox creature?

@G_Mac_Promish @MarcoFoster_ @grahamformaine Inflation does not occur because currency is printed...

[Zimbabwe and the Weimar Republic have entered the chat] yeah, yeah - the supply of fiat currency can be inflated theoretically infinitely. the working value of that debased currency, however, is a different matter. the calculation was simple: 1. estimate of total wealth -liquid, real, corporate, invested, everything- of the top 5% = valueA 2. estimate of total annual government expenditure = valueB 3. assume complete liquidation/fungibility is even possible 4. divide A by B to get funding duration from that one-time theft.

@G_Mac_Promish @MarcoFoster_ @grahamformaine No country that prints it's own money can run out of money. Not sure what you calculated....

Ben, Do you realize that the word "totalitarian" originated from the Italian Fascists? It may have been coined by Italian journalist and politician Giovanni Amendola in describing the election process in Mussolini-controlled territory. It was certainly publicly and proudly adopted by Fascists themselves, Giovanni Gentile and Benito Mussolini himself. The formulation of totalitarianism as "Everything within the State; Nothing outside the State; Nothing against the State" is attributed to Benito Mussolini, in a speech given in December, 1928. The term was later applied as a pejorative to other breeds of collectivist lunacy, particularly to Stalinist Soviet Union and to Mao's China, as well as to the current hellhole the Kims have made of N.Korea. In sum, Ben: Your post was factually incorrect. I hope this correction, above, helps you do better in the future.

@pureMetatron This shit is so cringe. Fascism and totalitarianism are not the same thing. Totalitarian left wing ideology is manifested in communism, not fascism.

Who is closer to being a historical fascist? A radical left winger or a far-right guy?

@pureMetatron fascism, national socialism, and international socialism are all closely-related parasites squabbling over the same host's veins and fighting for control over the same pool of young useful idiots. to the host, the exact subspecies is irrelevant: a tick is a tick.

@shigeyuki696 bulldozers live for this kind of moment.

🚨 Illegal mosque built without any permits in Kawagoe, Saitama, Japan. A large mosque complete with a minaret was constructed on a vast plot in an urbanization control area — with zero applications or approvals. Even more shocking: The Pakistani Ambassador to Japan attended its opening ceremony. Japan is being openly disrespected. When did we become so weak that foreign nationals can blatantly ignore our laws like this? Local authorities need to enforce the rules immediately and remove this illegal structure.

I would go so far as to submit to the public debate that policies which predictably and reliably afflict minority communities with the promotion and entrenchment of a subculture of irresponsibility and proto-criminality is far more perfectly and exactly the "systemic racism" the left loves to bruit about than *anything* they prefer to identify as such. as one example: high rates of criminality cause poverty *at least* as reliably as poverty causes criminality. this isn't controversial.

A SOLIDIFYING TREND: every single one of us who is not a hoodrat or a hoodrat-enabler is just about completely tired of the continued existence of hoodrats. black, white, hispanic, asiatic, ALL of us are sick and tired of this nonsense. this is going to be a key sociopolitical fact, one of serious leverage, in the future - if it has not yet already become so.

支配か？ ある程度は、当初はそうだった。 しかし、過去50年の間に、海路の自由な利用を守る米国の海軍覇権の下、両国の経済、技術、研究開発、そして国益は、共生関係に至るほどに密接に結びついてきました。 私は、米国と日本が現在、日本が確固たる軍事同盟国かつ貿易パートナーとして、独自の地域海軍勢力として再び台頭することに対して、互いに前向きな姿勢を持っていると信じたいと思います。 --- Control? To some extent, yes, at first. Over the last 50 years, however, our economies, technologies, research and development, and national interests have intertwined to the point of symbiosis, under the aegis of American naval hegemony protecting free use of sea lanes. I would like to believe that we of the United States and you of Japan are currently open to Japan reemerging as its own regional naval power, as a solid military ally and trading partner.

いつかこうなるのか？ すでに、こうなのか？ 戦後かずっと アメリカは日本を配下に置いていますか？

@pirooooon3 women are weaker than men. the old are weaker than the young. the solitary are weaker than the pack. the civilized are prey for the opportunistic predator. guns alter the calculus.

アメリカ人に聞きたい！ 銃は必要か？ 出来ればない方がよい？ 私は1度、射撃場で銃を撃った事があるが 銃はない方が良いと思った 日本には絶対にいらない アメリカには銃社会になる歴史があったのは理解している

@Fat_Electrician land use power use water use heat generation noise generation there are a lot of downsides.

I’ve looked into this very minimally, so I’m genuinely asking. Why are people opposing data centers so hard? My gut feeling is it’s hippies opposing nuclear power 2.0, but I’m willing to be convinced otherwise.

This photo from Flight 12 goes soooo hard!!!!!

@realMaalouf dogs marking territory.

They left their homes, the mosque, and even the sidewalk, choosing instead to pray in the middle of the street! What would you even call this?!

@DavidWa28957772 @tusd1964 @Cmdr_Hadfield @SpaceX moreover, the OP is so stupid I am currently wondering how the author manages to breathe without mechanical assistance

@tusd1964 @Cmdr_Hadfield @SpaceX That's one of the stupidest tweets I've ever read. How do you function in daily life? Have you managed to hold down a job or do you not work?

We need heat shields to protect us, since we use the air to slow us down as we return to Earth. From orbital speed, it gets to 1650°C / 3000°F. From the Moon: 2750°C / 5000°F. For yesterday's Starship suborbital test flight, peak was 1450°C / 2600°F. Great to see the @SpaceX progress over the last 3 flights. Making them truly reusable is complex and necessary for permanent, cheap space access. image compilation: @niccruzpatane
