  • Can the public expect to get to see Luigi Mangione's 3 page manifesto in its entirety in a reasonable timeframe?

  • That it could be an incitement to violence is precisely what they will/have argue(d), I would guess.

  • It's only a non-justicable political question when Republicans do it. That part is written in invisible ink, which is only visible if you sign your entity's legal name diagonally across the written decision with a red pen.

  • Yes, he spent the equivalent of ~$105 if you make $100,000/year. If you make $100,000, spending $100 to buy the government? You'd be dumb not to.

  • It takes a truly bureaucratic mind—someone with a sensibility for relentless, daily tedium—to dismantle bureaucracy.

    Democracy, by contrast, is far easier to unravel than state bureaucracy. Bureaucratic systems often outlast governments, as seen with the colonial administrations in Africa and South Asia. Bureaucracy is designed to be "portable" across different regimes and transfers of power.

    Elon is likely facing a long and tiresome road ahead—one he’ll almost certainly abandon in some spectacularly embarrassing fashion within two months. Bureaucracy endures because it’s so deeply embedded in the everyday, utterly quotidian and entwined with, like, everything.

    I live in the green part (obesity map)

  • Agreed. A more granular map would be interesting to see. I mean, something like 65% of NY state's population live in the NYC metro, which is a tiny part of a deceptively large state.

    Re: Colorado, it's just a relatively healthy state with a general ethos of living well. I think you're seeing some of the urban effect through the Denver, Colorado Springs, etc. and the addition of rural areas of Colorado still having an outdoorsy culture, as well as (often) affluent rather than "rural poor." Colorado has one of the lowest rural poverty rates in the United States.

    And since Colorado would be in the 25-29.9 category now, it's comparable to many states that also have comparable rural poverty rates. The fact that the states with the highest rural poverty also have the highest weights makes me assume obesity rates and poverty rates heavily overlap.

    Edit: to the point, look at the county map for childhood obesity. You can literally point out almost every major city in the United States.

  • Is it possible they're expressing admiration or paying you a compliment and not trying to invoke your smirking condescension?

    Incidentally, according to the most recent CDC numbers, Colorado is no longer "green" on this map, just Hawaii and DC.

    There's only eight states under 30%. West Virgina tops the numbers at 41%.

    ~75% of the United States is classified as overweight or obese, which is staggering. It has to be pretty unevenly distributed even within states, because I live in a college town in a low-middle-weight state, and very few appear obese, and I'm regularly in a nearby major metro, and I don't see a ton of obese people there either. Rural children are 10-15 times more likely to obese, so I'm guessing that is probably a major factor as well.

    25-35% obesity rates covers like 80% of states, so the US is just fat and getting fatter.

  • Claims in 'Duty to Warn' Letter to Harris Alleging Compromised Election Are Misleading, But Still Alarming

  • State actors expend resources that have no effect all the time. Wanting to have an effect and actually having the desired effect are two different things, as I'm sure you know from your own life.

  • I prefer just having Jeeves drive me in my Ford F250. I've converted the bed into a mobile office, so I wake up, drink a breakfast shake, and begin producing. Then my kids tap me on the shoulder and help guide me to my F250 while I keep producing. Once I'm in the back, I'm producing like never before. I'm dropped off at our main office door, and I switch to mobile and use voice recognition to notate my production during my breakfast and morning ride, and I'm in my office before I finish.

    I then produce for 10 straight hours with a 5min break for my lunch shake. By the time the day is over, I summon Jeeves again, and I load into the back and I produce all the way home. My wife makes me my dinner shake, and I finish some emails in my home office while I drink it. I close out my day notating my production for future review using voice recognition while I pat my children on the head and kiss my wife goodnight. Then I immediately sleep to get exactly eight hours so I can wake up and produce again tomorrow.

  • This person posted this earlier today then deleted it when people started pointing out how gross it is. It's all they've posted about.

    Indulging this person's fetish that they're facilitating by using an LLM isn't a great idea. You're enabling someone who is probably in mental distress, and you're spending way more time on it than they are. He's just throwing responses into an LLM and copying the response over, and he's indulging in the attention. This account is literally only this post and comments.

    It's creepy to think of some low-effort sweat slobbering over the attention from those willing to indulge his AI-constructed fanfic. Gross.

  • Sounds accurate. He thinks things work like 80s action movies. He probably literally got mad when they told him Rambo was a fictional character, so they had to force some guy to legally change his name to Rambo so Trump would be happy.

    The idea that you can just "send" "special forces" "assassins" to kill cartel leaders in a foreign country is fairly challenging just as an accomplishsble mission, let alone factoring in the potential and very serious blowback from the cartels AND the Mexican government.

    How the Fuck did Trump Actually Win - F.D Singifier

  • Trump’s support among women increased in 2024 compared to 2020, despite the common narrative about this. 7% more women voted for him, and this increase wasn’t just among white women. In fact, for the first time since 2016, Trump actually lost support from white women.

    The biggest shifts came from Latinas: 20% more voted for Trump than in 2020, continuing a steady rise in Latina support since 2016. He also gained 5% more support from Asian women. Beyond women, Trump made gains with voters under 30 and most men, but his biggest wins were with Latine voters and the youth vote overall.

    It’s a weird dynamic: an anti-woman political platform seems to increase support from women. Sure, there are probably other big issues at play, but the data suggests targeting women in a platform mainly turns off people with higher education levels—without pushing away women themselves.
