@JohnCleese Sounds like it. The bastards are selling out Ukraine.

Has he lost his mind ?

JD Vance: "Even until yesterday, I didn't even know that Zelensky said he was going to send soldiers to Orbán's residence. Viktor himself told me about it, and then I went and checked. I couldn't believe it was true, but it is true." x.com/grntmedia/stat…

Why is a private citizen who has financial ties in the billions with Israel and Saudi Arabia negotiating for the United States? Why are no diplomats involved? When will the Republican Congress act like an actual coequal branch of government and not a doormat?

Leavitt announces that Trump is "dispatching his negotiating team led by the vice president, JD Vance, special envoy Witkoff, and Mr. Kushner to Islamabad for talks this weekend"

@Mollyploofkins She keeps getting a corner where she has to lash out when she knows she is full of it.

A 16-year-old Latina girl from Chicago mailed her application to MIT.
Her name was Sabrina González Pasterski....
On merit alone, she should have been impossible to ignore. At 14, she had built a working single-engine airplane in her family’s garage—documenting every step, from assembly to flight. She passed inspection and flew it herself. She came from public schools, a first-generation Cuban-American with no elite pipeline or connections.
She understood the unspoken rule: girls like her had to be exceptional just to be considered.
She was.
MIT still waitlisted her.
It hit hard. MIT had been the goal she built everything around. Being told “not yet” felt like being told “not you.” But then two MIT professors came across her airplane video. They watched a teenager design, build, and fly her own aircraft—and immediately recognized something rare.
They pushed her case forward.
MIT reconsidered.
She got in.
She didn’t forget that moment. Instead, she used it as fuel. At MIT, she didn’t just succeed—she redefined what success looked like. She became the first woman to win the prestigious Orloff Scholarship, graduated in just three years with a perfect 5.00 GPA, and became the first woman in two decades to graduate at the top of MIT Physics.
Her research moved just as fast. Her first paper was accepted within 24 hours—something almost unheard of in theoretical physics. Opportunities followed. NASA showed interest. Jeff Bezos personally offered her a role at Blue Origin.
She declined.
She chose to pursue deeper questions instead, heading to Harvard for a PhD in physics. There, she focused on black holes, quantum gravity, and the structure of spacetime. At just 25, her work was cited by Stephen Hawking—a rare acknowledgment from one of the most respected minds in science.
But her story isn’t just about intelligence.
It’s about navigating a space where people like her are often underrepresented. She had seen the imbalance early—few girls in advanced physics, even fewer from her background. Instead of stepping back, she stepped forward.
She kept her focus narrow and intentional. No social media presence, no distractions—just her work. She maintained a simple website, sharing research rather than chasing attention. When people compared her to Einstein, she rejected it, insisting she was still learning.
After completing her PhD, again with top performance, she continued her work at leading research institutions. Today, she contributes to some of the most complex problems in physics, exploring how the universe fundamentally works.
And as she does, she quietly expands what feels possible for others.
Sabrina González Pasterski’s story isn’t just about brilliance. It’s about persistence, identity, and refusing to shrink to fit expectations. MIT hesitated.
She gave them a second chance to see clearly.
And then she went on to prove exactly who she was.
