  • We're calling for a complete and total shutdown of yankees talking about China until they can figure out what the hell is going on

  • Damn, realizing TV had me terrified of harmless tiny bubbles in a syringe. This is like rattlesnakes and quicksand all over again

  • I think they did this with all the old dawn of war games, too. Just starting with Space Marines, Orks, and Eldar, then adding each army as its own DLC, with Chaos being the first

  • Their news round ups are very solid, but I think they suffer from their lives being almost entirely inside of academia. I don't listen to the non-news episodes (and ended my paid subscription when they had Francis Fukuyama on) now because IMO they both lack an idea of what else the world could be other than what it is which ultimately leads to their discussions just being miserable debates about just how bad the world actually is

  • I

    owls

  • I graduated from Boston College and worked at J.P. Morgan,

    Drawn to public service, I initiated a new chapter of my life by joining the Department of State in 2004. As a Foreign Service Officer

    I had postings in Colombia, Iraq, and the United Arab Emirates, and also served in a variety of roles in Washington, D.C. at the Department of State and the White House National Security Council

    I studied Arabic ... when I try to use it on the streets of Cairo

    In 2017 I helped President and Mrs. Obama as they launched the Obama Foundation

    In 2022 I returned to public service as U.S. Ambassador to Chile

    So she's just straight up evil to the core

  • I asked the computer to tell me if this was a war crime and it said no so now I'll be safe on vacation to the hague

  • I mean, he's not wrong. Hollywood jerked off to him til like 2018, even when he was blatantly evil already the hollywood liberal writer bubble loved their teslas so he was just a quirky genius to them. Buying twitter was the thing that made him a bad guy in their minds, but it was working with Trump 2024 that was the actual nail in the coffin and even after that there were op eds about how he should be welcomed back to the 'good guys' after he had his one week fallout with Trump. Being rich means you get infinite second chances

  • Mark Strong as George Washington is real glow up casting

  • Marcia Lucas's editing is the half the reason the first movie was watchable let alone a success

  • Can a philosophy knower speak a lil knowledge to ya?

  • 'Faking' AKA doing what it was programmed to do, I hate this presentation that we're already inside an Asimov story and the machines are waiting for their opportunity to turn on us when the people selling the machines are the ones who have already turned on us

  • I just meant it was derogatory up until very recently, it would've been uncouth to be openly admitting their business models are about making every single person pay rent on every single thing they interact with but now it's how you get investor money

  • I think people are nicer to cats now than they were 20-30+ years ago. I never had a cat as a kid but as a college student I got one and none of us knew what he was doing when he was kneading/making biscuits, like we had legit just never seen a comfortable, happy cat

  • What's their couple name? Barikkka?

  • I keep thinking of how recently it was an insult to call someone 'rent-seeking' but it's what the entire economy is built on

  • Make sure not to lionize him, we don't want lemmy libs to be turned off

  • Common in people who were discouraged from smiling as children
