  • Laura Loomer on HHS Secretary RFK Jr.: "The only reason why Kennedy left the Democrat party, as he said, and joined the Republican party is because he extorted Donald Trump"

    Jump

  • The reason Kennedy left the Democratic Party and joined Trump, is because Kennedy is a dangerous idiot and Trump os a gullible fool, and Democratic voters don't tolerate his idiocy.

    Trump switched for the same reason. He said so explicitly: Republicans are easier to con.

  • Republicans can’t stop wasting money – they want to scrap USPS’ awesome EVs

    Jump

  • What a bizarre, nonsensical waste of money. Can they at least postpone the auction until they have a superior replacement available? That should postpone it for a couple of decades.

  • Prosecutors trying to 'bias' the public against Luigi Mangione, defense says

    Jump

  • I don't think undermining the right to a fair trial is the prosecutor's job. And public opinion shouldn't matter in a court of law.

  • Trump Complains He Should Have Won FIVE Nobel Prizes By Now But ‘They Only Give Them To Liberals’

    Jump

  • The only thing he's accomplishing is that people fondly remember Obama and want him back.

  • On Juneteenth, President Trump says America has "too many non-working holidays"

  • Putting some limitations on slavery.

  • Putin says 'all of Ukraine is ours' as he eyes Sumy city

    Jump

  • If he really believes the two countries should be united, he could always decide to surrender to Ukraine and give Ukraine control over Russia. I'm sure Ukraine would do a better job of governing Russia than Putin has done.

  • This viral video has people talking about Christianity versus ‘MAGA Christianity’

    Jump

  • Not just Catholic. Most Christians understand very well that if God created the universe, he also created all the mechanisms within that universe, including evolution.

    Seeing God as contradictory to evolution to me betrays a very small and limited view of God, as if he's just some Slartibartfast creating just this one planet.

  • If heaven is full of those people, I really don't want to go there.

    Matthew 25 is pretty explicit about that that's not where they're headed.

  • Most blatant is the "Prosperity Gospel", which blatantly and directly preaches the polar opposite of what Jesus said explicitly several times.

    Jump

  • Exactly. It has nothing to do with following Jesus, and everything with cultural identity. They identify as Christian because they were raised that way, not because they actually care about anything Jesus said.

  • Occurences of swearing in the Linux kernel source code over time

  • He also used to flip off contributors, which people eventually convinced him was scaring off good developers.

  • Trump coveted a military spectacle but his parade proved underwhelming: ‘Just kind of lame’

    Jump

  • To explain and expand a bit on this: Frederick the Great was likely gay or at least somewhat queer, but also a military innovator who laid the basis for Prussia's iron discipline. Back then units were most effective when in perfect formation, but moving around the battlefield disrupted formation, hence the invention of the goose step to rapidly move units around on the battlefield without losing formation. Invented by a gay king.

    So today we've got homophobic dictators emulating that for pure theatre and looks, over a century after it has lost any military purpose.

  • I'm a big fan of fact-based optimism, and I think you're right.

  • Trump coveted a military spectacle but his parade proved underwhelming: ‘Just kind of lame’

    Jump

  • I see the lackluster parade as a victory for democracy. Democracies don't have massive goose-stepping parades in glory of their dear leader. That's a fascist dictator thing, and surely what Trump wanted, but what he got was the kind of parade that you get in a democracy where the military exists for defense rather than tue glorification of the generalissimo.

    Well done, military peeps.

  • Germany’s multibillion dollar spending surge to focus on railways

    Jump

  • Good! The unreliability of German trains has been utterly surreal lately. We went on vacation by train from NL to Switzerland last year, and of course that connection goes through Germany. Confusion, delays, cancelled trains, 5 layovers with a ton of luggage (instead of the 1 we booked), standing in trains instead of sitting in our reserved first class seats. Even if you don't arrive all that late, it's still a terrible trip.

    Before that, I've had a major event at Essen where the last connecting train to the ICE from Düsseldorf was cancelled. Tons of people stranded. I made it by paying through the nose for a taxi because I saw that their replacement bus wasn't going to make it.

    Some fixes to their crumbling system are clearly long overdue.

  • Can we get Ludic to do this? Not a Brit, but he does have a way with words.
