when it comes to foreign policy israel is extremely relevant & if we’re gonna be attached at the hip to this reckless nation the size of new jersey dragging us closer to WW3, we should absolutely be allowed to talk about it without a dumb bitch in our ear calling it anti-semitism

I hate to be that guy but it is prob both true that - the ancients did not have an “inner world” in the way that we think they did - they had better lives as a result and retardmaxxing is the wrong solution to the right diagnosis Try this 10 second exercise, you’ll see what I mean. Look at your phone/laptop and answer the question “what is this object” WITHOUT using any words. You should start to feel a tingling at the back of your head, maybe even a sense of anxiety. Do this for a day* and you will understand - Plato - Genesis chapter 2 / John chapter 1 - early Wittgenstein - basic angelology - Lana del Rey - why Guenon/Evola hated fascism - why psychedelics are stupid - why Kant is a bastard who should be put on trial for the murder of philosophy and every patriot should spit on his grave There’s a lot of evidence that this is the default state of the ancients, unmediated by the post-Industrial excess of information/categories. So when Marcus Aurelius tells you he’s sad, he’s probably experiencing something very different from you and me. * heads up if do this for > 1 week you will genuinely go insane. speaking from partial experience. would not recommend

Thomas Massie for Congress
AIPAC should be required to register as an agent of a foreign government under FARA, because even U.S. citizens are meant to be subject to FARA. AIPAC and closely associated entities have spent over $6 million to influence my election. Keep America First: secure.thomasmassie.com/donate

Many angry replies to my post about our navy trying to frame a decent young white male for what was likely a BLM arsonist that sunk a US aircraft carrier in Summer 2020. Almost all were about how only all civilians etc call it an aircraft carrier. Yes—I’m a civilian. & the arson?

Ceb K.@CEBKCEBKCEBK

@NapalmStarFish @newstransl8r It was used as a harrier carrier during W’s Iraq War. I get that the US Navy now likes to distinguish “aircraft carriers” but internationally & colloquially it’s common to apply the term to harrier carriers

Periodic reminder that there is no "crime gene" and, to the extent that criminality is a highly polygenic heritable trait, it cannot be "bred out".

@treblewoe At a minimum, the century after the first millennium was exciting, maybe we retake Jerusalem sometime again in the next 100 years?

I was unaware that the entire premise for the 1 AD dating is a clear typo in a 1544 printing of Josephus. It is simply impossible. So the Crucifixion was April 7, 30 AD by current reckoning. Thus we are 4 years, 24 days from the 2000th anniversary.

Rep. Andy Ogles@RepOgles·
The Hart-Celler Immigration Act of 1965, in conjunction with the Immigration Act of 1990, is the most recent declaration of war Congress has ever passed. Not only did this legislation declare war on American culture, but it has also been sending foreign troops to every American community to steal their jobs, erase their religion, and infiltrate their schools. I am preparing a monumental bill that repeals Hart-Celler, ends the H1-B visa scam, ends chain migration, and creates a whole new character-based system that would make America look like America again. The ASSIMILATION Act is how we can save our culture and secure our country.

Gov Abbott, Enough of this xenophobia. Millions of American Muslims live in Texas and contribute to the Lone Star State in countless ways. As a proud, born-and-raised Texan, I find it extremely disappointing to see my governor pander to anti‑Muslim bigotry for cheap political gain. You know better than this. This is blatant fear-mongering and xenophobic scapegoating. Stop spreading misinformation before your rhetoric causes consequences that will harm innocent people. The Shariah as practiced by millions of American Muslims cannot be banned — it is protected by the Constitution. I mean the lived Shariah: prayers, rituals, and private conduct shaped by faith, none of which seeks to replace U.S. law (just as halakha guides Jewish Americans and canon law guides Catholics). The 'Shariah' you keep invoking is imaginary. There are no 'Shariah cities' in this state, nor is anyone trying to establish laws other than those of the United States. The only people asserting the existence of 'Shariah cities' are state officials manufacturing a threat to secure votes. And denying school choice to Muslim families is absolute discrimination. It is blatantly un‑American, and actively fuels hatred against an entire faith. All of my children attended Muslim schools, and my wife teaches at one. There are no radical Muslim schools indoctrinating children in Texas. Shame on those who demonize Muslim children and cynically exploit that fear for political gain. Governor, I urge you to do better than this. Long after the next election, history will remember your actions, and God will judge you for your sincerity (or lack thereof). Protect religious freedom—don’t pander to anti‑Muslim bigotry. Sincerely, Dr. Yasir Qadhi
Greg Abbott@GregAbbott_TX

That’s right. We don’t want school choice funds going to radical Islamic indoctrination with historic connections to terrorism. I signed laws banning Sharia cities. I designated CAIR and the Muslim Brotherhood as foreign terrorist organizations and transnational criminal organizations. And I will pass another law that completely bans Sharia Law in Texas. washingtonpost.com/education/2026…

@sailaunderscore The measured calories are only a ceiling, you won't ever store *more* energy than are chemically present in the food. This is like being upset your car's mileage varies depending on different conditions; its still useful to estimate and then adjust based on experience

@TheBlackHorse65 You can use tungsten or other high melting point metals, the main issue tho is how expensive it is to get them up there then accurately hit a target. Cheaper just to use a missile even at MIC prices

Regular reminder that just because something seems like it will work, does not mean that it will. We actually know what happens when moderate sized rocks fall from space, they typically do not reach the surface, when they do, the overwhelming majority of their energy does not.

This whole China can “out drone produce us” or “out missile produce us” or whatever is dumb. They can’t out space us, and it’s not even close. We can drop rocks on them. A lot. 1 100kg iron slag ($10) “rock” dropped from space has the kinetic energy of a MOAB (largest non nuke ordinance -11 Tons TNT), they travel at hypersonic speed, straight down. You can’t defend against it, you can’t shoot it down. In 1 falcon heavy launch, we can drop 600 “rocks”. By next year w/ starship that will be 1500 “rocks” per launch and by 2030 it’s a whopping 2,000 “rocks” per launch and $20k worth of “rocks” *plus shipping and handling. Per year we’d be dropping 32k “rocks and that’s just doing the same number of launches we did last year. And with SpaceX’s own projection of annual space lift capacity by 2030 it gets retarded. In 2030, without adding any more resources other than SpaceX’s own already planned cap-ex, America will have the ability to drop….. 10,000,000 MOAB “rocks” per year at a cost of $100M in ordinance *plush shipping and handling. And that’s all without changing a thing, no new tech, no crazy guidance systems, no new hypersonic missle tech, nothing. Just dropping 10M rocks would flatten everything taller than a rice patty. Can’t defend against it, can’t stop it. Just rocks. From space.

ten or fifteen years ago, we far-right shitpoasters had some crazy outlandish ideas that have today become widespread & influential in real world political circles. what's the equivalent now? are there edgy far-right ideas that will become conventional wisdom 15 years from now?

People talking about the SAAS apocalypse don't get this is how it actually happens. - Hi, we can vibecode your product in 2 months, so how about you cut your annual fees down from $500k to $200k for us. So we don't have to make it. - Maybe, but how about we do a license audit, where will sue you for $4m for breaking T&C's in 9 global offices. BTW, have you seen how much time we spent on support, and training, and we're embedded so deeply into every system, it will take you years to get rid of us. - OK, 500K it is, and see your at the F1, we loved your box last year. - It's going to be $600k this year. -OK, but we still get your box tickets? right?
