if people saw my behavior and thought i was a bot? i'd get it. weird bursts of RTs, comments way more than actual stand-alone tweets. classic case, right? nah, just a dude who reads his follows like an RSS feed and a circadian rhythm so fucked there's not even dental records left

“Ross glick is a registered sex offender!” Yells a protester. Betar affiliate, Ross glick, was eyed by multiple protesters as he attempts to document the crowd and people faces. Protesters confront him and a few called him a “pedophile” during the ordeal.

@PalantirTech tl;dr the great satan must be dismantled

Because we get asked a lot. The Technological Republic, in brief. 1. Silicon Valley owes a moral debt to the country that made its rise possible. The engineering elite of Silicon Valley has an affirmative obligation to participate in the defense of the nation. 2. We must rebel against the tyranny of the apps. Is the iPhone our greatest creative if not crowning achievement as a civilization? The object has changed our lives, but it may also now be limiting and constraining our sense of the possible. 3. Free email is not enough. The decadence of a culture or civilization, and indeed its ruling class, will be forgiven only if that culture is capable of delivering economic growth and security for the public. 4. The limits of soft power, of soaring rhetoric alone, have been exposed. The ability of free and democratic societies to prevail requires something more than moral appeal. It requires hard power, and hard power in this century will be built on software. 5. The question is not whether A.I. weapons will be built; it is who will build them and for what purpose. Our adversaries will not pause to indulge in theatrical debates about the merits of developing technologies with critical military and national security applications. They will proceed. 6. National service should be a universal duty. We should, as a society, seriously consider moving away from an all-volunteer force and only fight the next war if everyone shares in the risk and the cost. 7. If a U.S. Marine asks for a better rifle, we should build it; and the same goes for software. We should as a country be capable of continuing a debate about the appropriateness of military action abroad while remaining unflinching in our commitment to those we have asked to step into harm’s way. 8. Public servants need not be our priests. Any business that compensated its employees in the way that the federal government compensates public servants would struggle to survive. 9. We should show far more grace towards those who have subjected themselves to public life. The eradication of any space for forgiveness—a jettisoning of any tolerance for the complexities and contradictions of the human psyche—may leave us with a cast of characters at the helm we will grow to regret. 10. The psychologization of modern politics is leading us astray. Those who look to the political arena to nourish their soul and sense of self, who rely too heavily on their internal life finding expression in people they may never meet, will be left disappointed. 11. Our society has grown too eager to hasten, and is often gleeful at, the demise of its enemies. The vanquishing of an opponent is a moment to pause, not rejoice. 12. The atomic age is ending. One age of deterrence, the atomic age, is ending, and a new era of deterrence built on A.I. is set to begin. 13. No other country in the history of the world has advanced progressive values more than this one. The United States is far from perfect. But it is easy to forget how much more opportunity exists in this country for those who are not hereditary elites than in any other nation on the planet. 14. American power has made possible an extraordinarily long peace. Too many have forgotten or perhaps take for granted that nearly a century of some version of peace has prevailed in the world without a great power military conflict. At least three generations — billions of people and their children and now grandchildren — have never known a world war. 15. The postwar neutering of Germany and Japan must be undone. The defanging of Germany was an overcorrection for which Europe is now paying a heavy price. A similar and highly theatrical commitment to Japanese pacifism will, if maintained, also threaten to shift the balance of power in Asia. 16. We should applaud those who attempt to build where the market has failed to act. The culture almost snickers at Musk’s interest in grand narrative, as if billionaires ought to simply stay in their lane of enriching themselves . . . . Any curiosity or genuine interest in the value of what he has created is essentially dismissed, or perhaps lurks from beneath a thinly veiled scorn. 17. Silicon Valley must play a role in addressing violent crime. Many politicians across the United States have essentially shrugged when it comes to violent crime, abandoning any serious efforts to address the problem or take on any risk with their constituencies or donors in coming up with solutions and experiments in what should be a desperate bid to save lives. 18. The ruthless exposure of the private lives of public figures drives far too much talent away from government service. The public arena—and the shallow and petty assaults against those who dare to do something other than enrich themselves—has become so unforgiving that the republic is left with a significant roster of ineffectual, empty vessels whose ambition one would forgive if there were any genuine belief structure lurking within. 19. The caution in public life that we unwittingly encourage is corrosive. Those who say nothing wrong often say nothing much at all. 20. The pervasive intolerance of religious belief in certain circles must be resisted. The elite’s intolerance of religious belief is perhaps one of the most telling signs that its political project constitutes a less open intellectual movement than many within it would claim. 21. Some cultures have produced vital advances; others remain dysfunctional and regressive. All cultures are now equal. Criticism and value judgments are forbidden. Yet this new dogma glosses over the fact that certain cultures and indeed subcultures . . . have produced wonders. Others have proven middling, and worse, regressive and harmful. 22. We must resist the shallow temptation of a vacant and hollow pluralism. We, in America and more broadly the West, have for the past half century resisted defining national cultures in the name of inclusivity. But inclusion into what?

@PalantirTech yessss I see a better world possible, one forged from shadow and flame

Tyler, The Creator also condemned Meta Glasses

Good news for fans of Sheffield-based BBC nuclear terror drama Theads: the branch of Burtons outside which Anne Sellors had a wee has been reopened as a Popeyes. For many years it was a shuttered Dorothy Perkins in The Moor shopping centre, but now Louisiana chicken enthusiasts Popeyes have brought it back into use. Please use the restrooms provided though - keep Sheffield beautiful everybody!

Israel just blew up the ceasefire, literally. This morning the IDF’s 8219 Commando Battalion carried out a demolition operation in Bint Jbeil, southern Lebanon. Footage shows buildings rigged and detonated while the truce is barely two days old. A ceasefire they preach. This is Israel openly continuing its systematic destruction inside sovereign Lebanese territory, one village at a time. Where is the condemnation from Prime Minister @nawafsalam & President Joseph Aoun @LBpresidency for these Israeli atrocities? Or are their strong words reserved only for the French? A ceasefire cannot hold when one side keeps detonating it. Don’t be surprised or act shocked when those violations come with consequences.

Inconceivably evil.

JUST IN: New study shows Mamdani's "affordable" city-run grocery store is 10x more expensive than Whole Foods per square foot.

They have no idea how similar they are. It’s like De Niro and Pacino in Heat or like just two possums hissing at each other.

A few years ago these morons tried to dox me and posted a pic of my elderly grandmother's house instead. This guy retweeted it. Don't buy his embarrassing crybully act, this is just another example of Republicans not being able to take what they dish out.

This is retconning Minions lore. In the Minions movie it was revealed that between Napoleon's invasion of Russia in 1812 and 1968 the entire population of Minions were in a Siberian cave. This was a workaround so they didn't help Hitler, which is now back on the table

It’s so funny some people only know ab Kodaka through Danganronpa discourse/discussion and don’t know the current arc of life he’s on where chinese fujoshis saved his company and are now buying plushies and various merchandise of him specifically
