  • Ex-MAGA Rep. Joe Walsh announced Tuesday that he is joining the Democratic Party

  • They say "we need to expand our tent" but they're only willing to erect tent poles on the right. Everybody left of center is left out in the rain.

    How dope would it be if the future were that AOC is the moderate, establishment Dem leader of the House uniting further left Dem reps with other moderate reps like herself. Because in reality, she and Sanders are pretty centrist, but they're painted as extreme far left because the wealthy are afraid of how effective they are.

  • If I have to get incessant phone calls about a house I never owned because somehow my info got associated with it online, I should get the house.

  • Pastor Deborah Dallas wrote a book called Nothing But The Truth, and the only reason I know this is because I get half a dozen calls every day from people trying to get a distribution deal or film rights. For years. I used to tell them that they have the wrong number. Now I just don't answer my phone. Every call from them gets blocked and reported. My number is on the do not call registry and I've never invited these fucks to call me.

    I even got a text from a church one time asking if I was gonna make it to the upcoming Sunday service. I said idk, I got a lot going on right now. They freaked the fuck out on me lol. I told them to be more Christ-like, and to also understand that your plans will never supersede God's plans. Then I gave them Bible study homework for being rude to me.That was a fun interaction.

  • MIT bans class president from graduation commencement after pro-Palestinian speech

  • Okay, but on a timeline measured in years instead of quarters, it's really fucking stupid to punish the factory that churns out engineers for your war machines, right? The government funds STEM education, yielding STEM experts, yielding STEM productivity. Stop funding it, stop making STEM experts, vastly reduce STEM productivity. Pair this with massive reductions on immigrants (and torch the economy to lower desire to come here also) and how does this not lead to brain drain dark ages and empire collapse?

    Is it more complicated than this? Am I missing something? Because usually when somebody thinks that everybody else is a fucking moron, they are the fucking moron, and I'm worried that maybe I'm just such a dumb fucking moron that I can't see what a dumb fucking moron I am.

  • White House refuses to come clean on Musk drug testing

  • Having a trip sitter would be ideal, but isn't fully necessary so long as you start small. Don't take more than 2 grams (assuming you're an average size adult male) and you'll be fine. You'll have some nausea which is normal, so don't eat a ton or drink anything acidic or bubbly before. The part of your brain that gets tickled for psychedelic effects is either the same or next door to the nausea part of your brain, so just get through the first wave of tummy gymnastics and the rest is therapeutic meditation. Watch clouds, look at bugs in the grass, touch tree bark. Be in our natural world. Just be somewhere safe and comfortable where you don't need to be concerned about being judged. Idk how people can enjoy it in a public setting lol. Or more often than like once per year.

    It's been a while for me, but you bring things back with you from a trip. It helps you to tear yourself down so you can rebuild a little differently.

  • I dont know. Just sucks.

  • [musk] -Has contributed very little personally in his field of expertise

    What field of expertise? All he does is spend his daddy's emerald mine money on companies and then lie about what the companies are gonna accomplish. With the exception of nutting into mistresses, he's basically a subpar 14 year old trapped in the body of a divorced high school history teacher, but riddled with drug addictions. Money is the only thing keeping him out of prison and off the streets. He has lucked his way into everything he has, and there is absolutely nothing to admire about the "man". There isn't a single goddamn thing that I would trust him as an "expert" to handle for me.

    He is a pile of money. Nothing more, nothing less.

  • This is true. Teenage me only got snippets. I noticed the standardized metal road behemoths that people commanded at life-ending speeds, but otherwise just "plants pretty".At 30+, I thought more about how I would interface with gods or aliens or both as an ambassador advocating for the continued survival of the species, and I saw that that's a tough fucking sell at this point. I explored my own role as a person and came to understand that somewhere along the line, I've somehow transitioned from being a child to an unqualified adult, and now to an accomplished provider with notable lived experiences. As a result, I've started to aim to live up to that a little better.

    These people don't experience the ego death necessary to significantly grow. Mushrooms teach you to confront uncomfortable truths about yourself, and with some humility you may have an opportunity to reconcile to some degree. It's a tool, not a toy.

  • Ted Cruz begs Americans stop being so nasty to Elon Musk

  • I keep hearing this, yet his constituents keep electing him. So maybe they do like him, but they lie about that because they're ashamed of that fact.

  • Republican Rep. Mike Flood grilled during town hall

    Jump

  • Citizens knowing more about the bills that reps vote on than the reps that vote on those bills defeats the purpose of those reps in the first place. They were supposed to know this shit for us. He's inexcusably unqualified if his constituents are educating him about the bill he voted for.

  • Tom Morello Joins Bruce Springsteen and Harvard in Trump Standoff: 'F-ck That Guy'

    Jump

  • They're so bad at it that they wind up liking media that is directly mocking them. They legit say things like "I liked Stephen Colbert better before he went woke. The Colbert Report was good back in the day." They completely missed that Larry the Cable Guy is a character. They like Fight Club and The Wolf of Wall Street for exactly the wrong reasons.

    You have to be an extremely clueless dumbass to miss the very clear message behind RATM music, and yet they somehow still manage. They must have been sniffing glue while the teacher was going over analysis and annotations.

  • Great idea if your goal is brain drain and total collapse.

    1. Drastically reduce immigration.
    2. Skyrocket the cost of imported goods, even things we can't produce here (tropical fruit) and things we can't quickly scale up manufacturing for.
    3. Attack education centers which results in the people who are here not getting the education needed to be valuable, skilled labor (doctors, engineers, programmers, etc).
    4. ???
    5. America is grate aggin.

    Right?

  • Trump calls for ‘major investigation’ into Bruce Springsteen

    Jump

  • Well, he thinks that Mattel is a country and that Abrego Garcia literally has "MS13" tattooed onto his knuckles, so yeah, probably.

    When he dies, I hope there's a full autopsy because I really wanna know wtf is going on with his brain. Frontal cortex must have been chewed up and spit out or something.

  • What's your hot sauce of choice?

    Jump

  • That depends. For pizza and Asian cuisine, Sriracha. Special shout-out to Underwood Ranch specifically, because that shit is top tier. For everything else, chipotle Tabasco. When that goes on sale, I buy a few bottles because I know I'll go through it lol.

  • What's a good trade to learn?

  • If you're decent at math and physics and are even remotely handy, you can probably get into a data center or power plant. Both industries are growing like crazy while boomers and older Gen x are retiring.

    It took a long while as a contractor, but I eventually got a job as an operator in a power plant. The rotating shift work can be rough, and some days are really demanding, but it's overall not too bad usually and it pays well. Outside operators here start at like $40/hour. My water treatment specialty has gotten me a promotion and raises so now I'm at like $53.50/hour. If I can continue training and pass the test and board for it, I could make over $60/hour as a control room operator. With built-in OT and scheduled maintenance outages demanding even more OT, it's impossible to not break $100k/year here. With bonus, I might break $150k this year.

    Brush up on chiller loops, chemistry 101, physics 101, NATO phonetic alphabet, get 15k steps in a day, and change the oil in your car. If that's pretty easy for you, there's a career waiting for you lol.
