@ChampRDS @katiemillerpod i mean if that was the promo then duh. gotta be a fucking moron if that is surprising to you.

Dana White says the ENTIRE UFC White House promo video was made with AI, including his voice 🤯 "[AI] is not the future, it's now. It's already happening." (via @katiemillerpod)

@halfacentaur @BeingJWood @SpeakerJohnson @SenRubenGallego @SenMarkKelly There’s so much more to it than that. The CR is clean and adds nothing to our deficit. The Democrats want to add 1.5 trillion to the deficit and add back in loop poles that allow illegals to take advantage of ACA. Reform can happen after Dems open government.

House Republicans are working around the clock to help constituents navigate the Democrat Shutdown - while Democrats like @SenRubenGallego and @SenMarkKelly are busy making TikToks and staging publicity stunts in the Capitol. Maybe instead of filming content and cashing their OWN paychecks, my Democrat colleagues should focus on voting for a bill that would help real Americans get THEIR paychecks.

@julie_niel95102 @BeingJWood @SpeakerJohnson @SenRubenGallego @SenMarkKelly republicans proposed zero changes or reforms. their idea of changes was just throwing out aca, that's it. There was nothing to replace it besides prattling on about how you can make HSA accounts and invest it in the stock market. every solution is a scheme to tie us to finance.

@halfacentaur @BeingJWood @SpeakerJohnson @SenRubenGallego @SenMarkKelly The Republicans did propose changes, but were voted down during Trump‘s first administration. ACA was created under Obama and a Democratic Congress, and has been continually subsidized showing its failure to work.

@julie_niel95102 @BeingJWood @SpeakerJohnson @SenRubenGallego @SenMarkKelly republicans have not presented any solution to healthcare in this country, period. there's no time frame to reference, they've just never done it. HSA's isn't healthcare reform. they can't admit that the ACA was the conservative plan, co-opted by corporate democrats.

@BeingJWood @SpeakerJohnson @SenRubenGallego @SenMarkKelly This is not a republican made problem. This is a Democrat made problem, and Republicans are willing to sit down with their colleagues and try to fix it once the government is open.

@DoNotWorryPod he hopes the pedophile gets better? excuse me?

Ethan Klein writes a respectful and tender goodbye letter to Destiny the pedophile.

@IGN makes it so hard to defend? then stop defending it? why do people feel a need to do a corporation's PR for them?

After Starfield's Xbox showcase no-show, even its most loyal fans are starting to worry: "Bethesda makes it so hard to defend this game." bit.ly/3FPQ75S

@arielhelwani francis was there and waiting for a long time when he was actively in the UFC. This is just going to be yet another asterisk to everything Jones does. I'm not interested at all in looking to prop up an MMA version of mayweather. fuck this

Exhibit 9377448 that Jon wants nothing to do with Aspinall? If he wants to retire why is he interested in Francis? Or Stipe before him. It’s either you want to fight or not (like GSP decided twice). Mockery.

@YawgGoth so you'd create 0 treasure tokens. cool.

Posted without context:

My professor is going on a Trump rant in class and all the things he hates is why I voted for Trump. I couldn’t be happier.

@RafeekAdams @briebriejoy look up the definitions of words and if you're still having trouble, I'm sure you'd manage finding some sticks outside to make a fire.

@briebriejoy Maybe explain why this statement is wrong instead of simply calling Elon dumb? He clearly isn’t dumb. Maybe misunderstood and he misunderstands something that you do understand. Teaching moment. Not ‘Elon bad’

I know it's not the point, and this is fully my PMC hopping out, but to me, the most triggering thing about this man is how stupid he is. Not his actual politics, but how plainly dumb he is.

@ProjectVirginia @astro_alexandra yep. gutting programs for 50 years does that.

@astro_alexandra NASA is a joke and its capabilities have gone backwards for decades it can't even do what it could do in 1972

Laying off thousands of NASA employees isn’t going to make anything better. NASA is the scientific envy of the world. I’m horrified by the number of people who think SpaceX can “replace” NASA. SpaceX doesn’t do astronomy. They do spacecraft.

@MrGMYT that's nonsense. I played all the way up until Wrath & SoD right before AQ. Numbers were plummeting as months went by. Servers were effectively merged into megaservers because so many were dying. The experience is a shell of what it once was on both instances.

Judging by the numbers, Cataclysm Classic seems pretty popular. But why do I never see anyone ever talk about it?

@frankmm78 @TheTNHoller the government isn't a business. Also what is wasteful? Safety in nuclear manufacturing and handling of nuclear weapons? Is that wasteful? Or no, the imbeciles had to scramble to rescind those cuts.

@halfacentaur @TheTNHoller Cutting wasteful spending is good for the taxpayers business. Clinton and Gore did that and balanced the budget. They laid off almost 400,000 employees. Was that bad for our (taxpayers) business?

60 MINUTES: “Utter nonsense. The most accountable aid agency in the world is USAID… DOGE fired their top 58 officials within an hour of arriving…” This was never about efficiency.

@TheTNHoller the irony is that the department of government efficiency's goal is to make the federal government as inadequate and dysfunctional as possible - so billionaires can raid the treasury for everything they can.

@frankmm78 @TheTNHoller the government isn't a business. whoever convinced you of this wanted you to vote for them.

@TheTNHoller So if we don’t start with foreign aid to cut the budget, where? Everything should be looked at. If you purchased a company that was billions in debt, wouldn’t you look at everything and cut it all? Add back what makes sense and not wasteful. Oh wait, that’s common sense!

@Sue132435 @RepJamesClyburn nothing screams "I know what I'm talking about" like "tops in tech and efficiency" What a standard.

@RepJamesClyburn Fully support. Musk is tops in tech and efficiency, two traits sorely needed at the FAA. In fact, we are LUCKY he wants to help!!!

This is dangerous. Trump wants to hand over FAA to Musk and SpaceX. This means your taxpayer-purchased air traffic control facilities and equipment, packages, and emergency flights would be under control of SpaceX, which is unchecked by the flying public and U.S. military.

@DFMBRollins @lawprofblawg yo, they had to fucking scramble to try to recontact folks who are in charge of the NUCLEAR ARMS MANUFACTURING because this admin are a bunch of absolute imbeciles.

@lawprofblawg This argument is horrifically bad. It implies government spending is a necessity as important as fucking housing. This only works in an echo chamber. You won't convince the people who want the government to do less that it doing less is a bad thing lmao

You cannot determine whether you saved or cost money based solely on one side of the ledger. Example: I saved my household $2K by not paying the mortgage.

@stevenlattanzio @RpsAgainstTrump democrats trying to make themselves look like republican-lite is exactly why we're in this stupid fucking mess.

@RpsAgainstTrump Elon is not above water politically. Having Elon spend money against you should be a badge of honor. Republicans should grow a pair and make Elon spend on challenging them all at once. In fact, Democrats should be willing to spend on any dissenting Republican.

Andrew Natsios, a Republican former administrator of USAID: “I’m not a moderate Republican; I’m a conservative Republican…the reason they [Republicans] aren't saying anything is because they’re afraid. Musk said that he’d spend $100 million in primaries on anyone who opposes the president on anything. There’s a lot of fear in the city right now.”

@RpsAgainstTrump hilarious. the same republicans that for decades have touted that unmitigated campaign financing to super PAcs and the unrelenting damage of citizen's united has come back to quite literally nullify their political voice. You sold our government out. Look what you fucks have done

@SkylerforNY the issue is that once democrats regain control, they will fundamentally do nothing structurally with it. they will just adjust a few things, continue to fail to appoint judges, restore government agencies - they will just resort to whatever status quo the trump admin created.
