I have no idea what Sloopjos is doing this week. Something about Messican ass weed. And lawyers.

So this happened. Oddly enough, Hamas is the only party not already on board.
My intense dislike for this choice has nothing to do with Trump.
I haven’t been following this story, but this seems significant.
This head fake is aimed at Puty-Put. At least, let’s hope it’s a head fake.

Their last communication was “Send Lawyers, Guns, and Money”.
I thought that was what they were going to name their next three kids…
“Erm…”
Why is it that tolerance involves supporting deviance and stupid shit, every fucking single time?
Well, the nobility have been marrying cousins for centuries.
As if no one ever noticed.
Hence the prevalence of Kings nicknamed the Mad, and the eventual collapse of monarchy generally.
Yep and eventually you end up with this guy:

The occasional 1st cousin marriage isn’t that genetically risky but children of cousins who are the progeny of cousins and etc up the family tree are at great risk.
You want dragons and white walkers? Because this is how you get dragons and white walkers.
I don’t want a lame setting. Bring me a better setting.
Tolerance only applies to specific people in the victim stack. Now hillbillies… they are just backward cousin-fuckers, lowest of the low, beneath contempt. You know, white.

NPR’s carefully curated expert said that since all the Arabs an also all the majority Muslim nations were on board, that Hamas would HAVE to agree to the plan. Although I don’t think it actually had all the majority Muslim nations.
🤣
Did the UK approve of it?
Or France or Canada or the other 100-odd countries that are officially Hamas supporters now.
[golf clap]
Since it reads to me as “Hamas needs to pinky-swear to stop being terrorists and gets amnesty”, I expect them to be on board long enough to re-arm.
Bingo. Anything that does not result in the total destruction of Hamas is a defeat for Israel, and a defeat for civilization.
Replace Hamas with Islam WTF.
It’s going to be interesting to say the least to watch a caliphate take over Europe in my lifetime.
Replace Hamas with Islam WTF.
*Looks at France, UK, Michigan, Minnesota, NYC*
I stand corrected.
If you can tell it’s a head fake, it’s not an effective head fake

I’m just here wondering why the article goes through the scary scenarios, when towards the end it’s mentioned that there is a large, long running, planned, biannual NATO exercise happening in the North Sea.
Maybe lead with the most likely scenario? But I guess it’s more important to uphold the narrative of some trigger happy Trump eager for world domination.

And their real problem is – he isn’t the right Top.Man for that!
Fear-mongering and pant-soiling hysteria is all they’ve got. Why you hate Fleet Street tabloids, Chip?
The nonfearmongering whole story doesn’t get clicks bud.
It reminds me of earlier this year when the USS Nimitz was spotted “operating” near Mexico. (Taking out the cartels!) Turns out that was their pre-deployment training, which they always do in that area, and about 5 minutes on Google would have told you that.
“So this happened. Oddly enough, Hamas is the only party not already on board.”
Why would Hamas be on board with anything that doesn’t involve brutally murdering Jews?
Because diplomacy is the art of saying “Nice doggie” while looking for a rock. We just don’t realize we and Israel are the doggies in this bit of diplomacy.
I too had a hottie reject me because the LDS church told her too. And yet, I’ve never murdered a Mormon nor torched a temple.
She sensed the Morman Siren tactic wouldn’t work on you.
There was a girl for which there was mutual interest. Unfortunately, she decided to return to the JWs and go full evangelical style. I was also friends with her older sister (who I found out later was interested in me as well) who was a great singer and enjoyed doing karaoke. The evangelical JW sister would (about once a month) decide to show up and yell at all of us fornicators and drinkers. Last I chatted with the sane sister, they were still estranged (leaving the JW makes you a “backslider”, and you are to be shunned by the faithful).
The shunning there is brutal. I worked with a guy that was part of their cult and they excommunicated one of their brothers or sisters (I don’t remember which) from the family.
I pulled a shack job with the daughter of an 7DA pastor for a couple years.
But the only time I was rejected by a religious hottie was a Catholic girl, and it was post-night of temptation. And she was only concerned that I was divorced.
(snark) You weren’t wearing your extra special underwear!
(non-snark) I would bet on serious mental illness for this loser with the LDS folks just the fixation that came up in his Magic Hate Ball shaking.
First cousin marriages increase birth defects about 5%. Not a huge increase. Until you do it for every generation, then you end up with Pakistan.
Well the English class system was always on par with India’s, so why not adopt the marriage style of Pakistan?
When was the last time there was someone good for the half time show? I think the last one that was a band I had seen was Big Bad Voodoo Daddy.
There’s a name I have not heard in a long time.
I just saw them at a Templelive venue last fall. They routinely play around here for a Christmas show as well.
The only actual exposure I had to them was when they were a musical guest on Letterman – if that gives you any idea of how long ago it was.
I wasn’t much impressed by their piece, and didn’t seek out more.
UCS:
I’ve seen them at least a half dozen times, first time being an oversold show at a dive venue here (Grog Shop, OG, not new location). I’ve met the band several times, had the lead singer ogle my date’s cleavage (it was spectacular), and at one of their shows helped the girlfriend get a poster signed by all the members of the band.
Swing music and swing dancing did me well in the 90s/00s. A fad out of nowhere that was fun, upbeat, healthy, and relatively organic.
Screw the Super Bowl halftime show. Every year the pyrotechnics leave lingering smoke over the field through the third quarter, which has an impact on the game.
When I watched the Super Bowl the television was muted during halftime.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Super_Bowl_halftime_shows#2020s
I have zero recollection of The Who playing. No recollection of the Saints v Colts, really.
They played a few decades late and looked old as shit up there.
When was the last time there was someone good for the half time show?
It’s because Obama’s buddy Jay Z has an exclusive deal with the NFL to select the halftime performers. So pissing on the NFL’s core fan base is part of the goal.
Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers in 2008.
Tom Petty and Prince were both great. I think that Petty’s halftime show was more recent but I’m not certain.
Neither are bands that I would go see, but I can accept them as relatively popular options.
I thought the same thing before I saw each of them in concert.
Prince in particular might have been the greatest show that I have ever seen. It was like an enormous all-star funk jam session that just went on and on for hours
I was referring to when I saw him, not to his halftime show. But his halftime show was OK too LOL.
Gonna be tough getting them again.
I can accept them as relatively popular options.
I’ve got bad news for you on every halftime show pick. They are all popular.
Dead Prince beats live… (checks the name again) Bad Bunny?
What the fuck kind of name is that shit?
If I had to guess, they wanted the Gayest name that still retained plausible deniability.
Last one I watched was U2.
One before that was The Stones.
I only went to the one superbowl party for the time show and the food.
One of the best halftime shows ever was before Fox got an NFL contract and counterprogrammed with the Wayans Brothers doing Men on Football.
Lately, Mrs. Dean has been switching over to the Puppy Bowl during halftime. Which is saccharine, but, hey, puppies.
Lately I’ve been changing channels early in the game and never going back.

Can I just have general hate of halftime shows?
Even worse, soccer adopting them for their biggest matches (e.g. Champions League final).
It’s part of the theater. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Ridiculous pomp, garbage music, and an extended bathroom break are a time-honored tradition.
I googled “most popular song by Bad Bunny” – it was lame as hell. You can just refuse to listen to stuff that sucks without bringing politics into it.
The WNBA should train in San Ysidro not El Segundo.
Left unsaid in that article: where is the $150 Million coming from? It’s obviously not the WNBA since they lose upwards of $40 Million a year. I guess the NBA is subsidizing this facility as well? But why?

Speaking of Portland and why you don’t hate the media enough.
Controlling the media has allowed the left to be outright evil, and then lay blame on the opposition now for decades. It is why the left freaks out about the old legacy media losing it’s monopoly.

That article is brutal. Nicholas Kristoff is a propagandist who puts Josef Goebbels to shame.

Back when I was working at a trauma hospital in West Texas (trauma hospitals get crazies, druggies, frequent flyers in their EDs), one of the docs said we could really clean up the waiting room if we just put a Lortab lick (think, salt lick for cows) in front the hospital.
I’ve heard worse ideas.

That embedded TwiX post did a good job of defining the conflict –
What does one do with people who deny the existence of objective reality, but are otherwise sane enough that they can’t reasonably be institutionalized?
I’d rate denial of objective reality as crazy enough to require treatment.
For starters, you don’t hire them.
Philosophers and scientists pointed out a thing that is obvious on one level, namely that we do not directly interact with reality. We interact with a mental construct created by filtering incomplete and sometimes misleading sense perceptions through a set of mental constructs. What we take to be reality is our individual, and to an extent cultural, set of interpretations by imperfect minds of imperfect perceptions. As we communicate these perceptions back and forth, always imperfectly, we build up ‘social constructs’ which form a ‘consensus reality’.
The problem comes in when people mistake the fact that we can only ever have an imperfect model of underlying reality, and that those models can, and will change, for the idea that we can ignore underlying reality, change the models by lying, ignoring contradictions, denouncing anyone who points out said contradictions, and bring about a ‘new reality’.
Portland’s problems are garden variety leftist policies. The pics are just the tip of the iceberg but the real problem is culture. Trump and federalized national guard won’t fix any of that. Unfortunately Kristof is largely right, too.
Electric vehicle and plug-in hybrid vehicle occupancy rules change Tuesday at midnight
Not only are Republicans taking away subsidies for the rich, they won’t let them abuse HOV lanes.
Wait – that was a Federal rule?
I assume if the roads had federal subsidy. Most highways do.
I just thought the HOV garbage was a bunch of state rules.
It was likely a federal law allowing states to exempt vehicles from HOV restrictions.
Ours went away about 15 minutes after Teslas made EV’s popular.
Virginia has tiers of exemptions depending on when you first registered your car (-2006, 2006-2011, 2011-) so early adopters (the rich) received more privileges.
“Local California women’s rights activist Beth Bourne protested the policy allowing transgender students access to girls’ locker rooms by stripping down to a bikini at a local school board meeting.

“A Florida man allegedly killed, cooked, and ate two of his pet peacocks to get twisted revenge against his neighbor for feeding them, according to court records.
Craig Vogt, 61, was arrested last Tuesday in Hudson after placing an outlandish letter in his neighbor’s mailbox to tell her he had killed and cooked his peacocks because “she continued feeding them,” according to an affidavit from the Pasco County Sheriff’s Office obtained by The Post.”
https://nypost.com/2025/09/30/us-news/florida-man-arrested-for-allegedly-killing-cooking-and-eating-pet-peacocks/
How does that work?
Those peacocks identified as chickens?
Peafowl are food, what’s the crime if they were his own peafowl?
I’ve heard that people who eat peafowl are the luckiest people in the world…
It is all projection — he offended the “You’re a Peahen! Union”.
Try killing your pet dog and eating it?
Yes, Ted, people who raise livestock can never bring themselves to eat them, being as attached to the food animals as they are to their recrational and working animals.
They’re just big pheasants, aren’t they?
Eating dragchickens is transphobic!
It works just like parents throwing out their children’s toys because they didn’t pick them up.
Ok, that is completely nuts but I am not seeing a crime. Is the letter to torment the neighbor a crime? I guess it could be?
Well if the Founders were so smart they shouldn’t have based government on the lie about consent of the governed – which is just a fancy way of saying the mob rules.
That is exactly what the Democratic Party is attempting. The people who have hijacked that party need to be rooted out and I suspect they will be.

He’s younger than me and almost as cynical, despite me telling him that isn’t a good look.

Watching Hegseth right now telling the leadership of the armed forces that wokism is bullshit and it is OUT. No more lower standards, everything will be merit based and if you dont like it find another line of work. It is painful for me to watch and troubling that he even has to give such a speech.
Obama really corrupted the officer corps, and it will take a lot of pain and effort to unfuck. But at least it’s a start.
The officer corps was corrupted long before Obama.
Sure, but Obama really took it to the next level with all of the woke bullshit and overt politicization.
I caught the bit about “no beards” and wondered to myself, what about tatts.
I don’t think Hegseth could be down on tatts.
Back in the day, tatts couldn’t be anywhere exposed while wearing PT shorts, shirts, and socks.
Beards need to make a comeback.
I found out from my son-in-law that the Navy has much more lax grooming standards than the other branches, but when they do joint operations it’s understood they will be respectful and match the standards of whoever they’re working with.

The entire point of the Halftime Show is an opportunity for other channels to do counterprogramming.

So Hegseth called all the lazy fat fuck senior officer corp to start passing PT tests, twice a year.
I feel bad for the troops in their command cause that will roll downhill fast but it is needed.

Yeah, Sydney Greenstreet as an army officer.
Good. Fat soldiers in senior ranks has been a thing since I was in.

“The work builds itself in the everyday: four performers move in circles across an empty stage. It brings the so-called “pedestrian movement” of postmodern dance – walking, standing, sitting – the sort of movement considered neutral, almost invisible, into collision with the Black body. When a racialised person simply moves, simply breathes in our shared streets, the piece seems to ask, is that ever neutral?
….
But it is not only the far right’s success in recent elections or the extreme budget cuts that feed into regressive cultural politics. The backlash was there from day one, and as I have sadly realised over the years in various confidential settings, it came from inside the house. It came from many of the people we work with day to day, who would identify themselves as progressive, leftist even, and who would claim to just look at the “quality” of a piece of work, rather than its author’s identity, towards which they think they are, of course, totally neutral.”

Craiova was a shithole 15 years ago. I heard it got better but have not visited. They have Christmas Fair many seem to visit but I am not going to goddamn Craiova for no Christmas fair . $385 is on the low end for a one-bedroom but you can probably find one. Utility bills are not as low as they once was. Sibiu is better than craiova as a place to live and climate wise.
I had a feeling it was going to be something like that. The list isn’t exactly “places that are good to live”
Looking at that list, a lot of them are “Fuck No, I wouldn’t want to live there” from crime and quality of life issues, before even going on to cultural and language barriers.
“”Well, because the Jews aren’t involved. That’s why,” Maher replied. “It’s the Christians and the Muslims — who cares?” He went on to accuse Islamist group Boko Haram of “literally attempting to wipe out the Christian population of an entire country.”
“Where are the kids protesting this?” Maher said, referencing the ongoing anti-Israel protests across the US for the past two years.
“They are systematically killing the Christians in Nigeria. They’ve killed over 100,000 since 2009. They’ve burned 18,000 churches. This is so much more. These are the Islamists, Boko Haram. This is so much more of a genocide attempt than what is going on in Gaza,” he continued.”

I get that they use “impacts people of color and the lgbtqia+ community” as a generic argument – but one has to wonder if these silly articles arent part of some odd false flag smear campaign or something, just based on sheer stupidity
Some kind of signaling akin to the gun grabbers and their ‘thing that goes up’?
I cant understand these people.
In 1960, Brazil was receiving food aid from the US. Today, it is the world’s bread basket. The key was creating a cutting-edge agriculture research institute, Embrapa – an icon of successful science policy that most people have never heard of. 🧵
Embrapa was founded in 1973, after policymakers concluded that the problem in Brazilian agriculture was a lack of useful knowledge. Imported advice from Iowa didn’t help tropical farmers. So – despite Brazil’s low income! – they decided to set up a frontier ag research institute.
Lesson #1: invest in human capital. Embrapa spent 20% of its early budget on sending researchers to US/Euro graduate schools, creating the talent density needed for frontier research. In 1973 only 5 researchers had PhDs; by 1988 it was >1000, most sponsored by Embrapa.
Lesson #2: stay ahead of politics. Embrapa ran ad campaigns advertising its successes, hosted frequent press conferences, mandated researchers give press interviews. Far from the saintly ideal of scientists untarred by public opinion! “Without publicity, we would be dead.”
lesson #3: respond to market demand. Embrapa focused its early efforts on expanding arable land because a big constraint on Brazil’s ag was rising land prices. They also targeted higher price crops. This “induced innovation” strategy gave direction and avoided a fractured focus.

No, Brazil didn’t need to “learn” from US universities, the Brazilian researchers who brought knowledge there, especially since the US is the cradle of stupidity and the best minds are imported. The US never helped in any way; it just stole our resources. That’s over!
If they were smart, they went to the American Farmers and skipped the brain doners in academia.
But nice counterfactual on the end there.

This is absolutely false.
My wife is Brazilian. One thing Brazilians have is a knack for finding other Brazilians. She found a whole group of them, and then a slew more when she started working for a biotech company.
Many, many of those Brazilians we met here were here specifically for the purpose of working with the UKY Ag Program in order to grant farming techniques back to Brazil. There was an entire program devoted to it. Working at the biotech company, she ran the program which essentially sent farmers around the world to share ideas and techniques. The vast majority of those farmers were Brazilian farmers coming to the US. She led the farm tours for years. They went to farms all over the country (world).
This commie ratfucker can eat shit with his fucking claptrap.
Yeah, my dad was an Ag professor, and he had a shit load of Brazilian students over the years.
“Nicole Sirotek, founder of American Frontline Nurses, claimed that she received a frantic 4 a.m. call from a distraught husband whose pregnant wife is now on a ventilator after overdosing on Tylenol.
According to Sirotek, the woman, who was between 23 and 25 weeks pregnant, attempted to ingest massive amounts of Tylenol in an effort to “prove Donald Trump wrong” after his recent remarks linking acetaminophen use during pregnancy to autism.”

doubt
“Owning Trump” is quite a bit further down the stack than “muh baby!” – I will bet good money that the women performatively taking Tylenol weren’t, in fact, taking Tylenol (or spitting it out later, etc.).
I’m sure some were actually taking Tylenol and believing it was perfectly safe.
Though you know there is at least one who isnt performative…so while doubt the story in full, I dont doubt that some idiots actually did it
Too “on the nose”. I agree, it sounds fake.
I thought that when I saw it a couple days ago. I could find only 1 source.

Who knows. I wonder how the woman now in need of a new liver felt about horse dewormer?

Australia want to regulate private tutoring businesses

@herandrews
People are misunderstanding this story, which is from Australia. It’s about Asian immigration. Sydney selective schools are 80-90% Asian. China banned after-school tutoring in 2021, and the reasons offered in this article are similar.
In fact, China’s tutoring crackdown in 2021 reportedly led some of those education companies to go into the Australian market
From the original article: “Where the majority of kids are in tutoring, the [classroom] teachers don’t bother to even teach certain content because they assume everyone’s done it in tutoring.”
Asian and Western norms about education are incompatible, and it is unclear how this worsening conflict is going to resolve. I wrote about this for Compact:
https://x.com/herandrews/status/1972350964515635432
I am sort of torn on this one, I think an arms race of kids grinding/tutoring/grinding/preparing for the test is not good. Cannot see how one would change it if it is in the culture.
Move away from the classroom model with social advancement. Allow students to take classes of their appropriate level regardless of the grade their in. Go to backpack funding.

“I am so proud of all the young men and women from NJ-11 who are reporting to the military academies or academy preparatory programs this summer,” Sherrill said in a June press release highlighting 24 students from her district being appointed to various military academies including two of her children, Lincoln and Margaret Hedberg.
The press release did not note that the two students with her husband’s last name were her children and the photo in the release showing Sherrill posing with the students does not include her children.
I wondered why this didn’t get noticed much earlier in the campaign.

Damn these people can be brazen. Are they that stupid, or under the assumption they are immune from consequences because of their party affiliation? Or both?
It’s NJ, a deep blue state. She is immune from consequences because of her party affiliation.
Math teacher was trained on equity, culture, but not how to teach math
Teacher training at a well-respected university focused on social justice, cultural relevance, students’ psychology — but not how to teach math, an engineer turned math teacher tells Holly Korbey in an interview. “Yellow Heights,” as he calls himself, is the author of Unbalanced: Memoir of an Immigrant Math Teacher.
Yellow Heights was a top math student in China, he tells Korbey. In the U.S., he enjoying working with students in his son’s school math club. After working for Microsoft and then in finance, his startup failed. He enrolled in a one-year master’s in teaching program to prepare for a new career.
Classes focused on justice and equity, supporting adolescent students in their identities, “culturally sustaining pedagogy” and building healthy relationships with students, he tells Korbey. There were classes on the practical part of teaching, but they also focused on culture.
“Teaching for Learning” was “pretty ideological. It’s about cultural background, adolescent development, a little focus on students with disability and how to deal with that,” says Yellow Heights.
“Content Area Methods” wasn’t about math content. “It’s basically about respecting different identities, working in different school environments — very culturally focused.”
The adolescent development course had one chapter on psychology, he says. There was little discussion. The class went on “six chapters dedicated to social issues.”
He estimates that 10 percent to 15 percent of coursework was about math or teaching. It was “a total waste of money, a waste of time.”

Well its probably LLM generated and the real story is they cant get FREE care
My theory is that they know full well that it’s not hard at all to get those items, but they are adding a sense of excitement and danger into their lives by pretending that they’re living in the Handmaid’s Tale or something and they have to smuggle condoms past the heavily-armed morality police who will execute them on the spot for such a grave offense.
People (especially young women) will absolutely invent their own problems just to spice up the plot of the drama movie that they imagine their lives to be.

“My intense dislike for this choice has nothing to do with Trump”
I’d strongly concur. Im a massive music fan, and my tastes go far and wide, from out there jazz and electronica, to outlaw country to Cuban, Brazilian and African genres to rock and even pop. I firmly hold we are living in the best time in history to be a music fan, and there is plenty of awesome new music coming out. This Bunny dude puts out some seriously horrible autotuned garbage, in Spanish, a language i speak, but the lyrics I can make out are fucking banal as fuck. It’s a terrible choice, I know Jay Z is in charge of the halftime shows and it’s his middle finger to Trump, but im sure the NFL brass have veto rights on the choice and they okayed it. There needs to be an alternative show put on that is actually within the culture of America and football.

A New Organ Is Shaking the Pews at Trinity Church

Only thing I can think of is that there aren’t that many organ repair specialists to go around these days.
As an (attempted) accordion player, I will say that if something ever went wrong with it, I could try to find some .pdf of accordion repair from the ’50s, or mail it to the one 90+ year old guy in Minnesota who still knows how to fix them. Maybe it’s similar with organs, although you’d think there are more because of so many churches/cathedrals having one.

The Dems pushing healthcare for illegals..I am not sure what is going on here. Who, exactly, do they think that will appeal to? No one can be that bad at reading the room. So….wtf? I know the left has far less support than they purport. They are a loud minority but nothing more. Have they begun to believe their own bullshit and think there really are huge throngs of people clamoring for destroying western civilization?
Polling by KFF, a health-research nonprofit, found that 63% of Republicans, 80% of independents and 91% of Democrats favored extending the extra payments.

All I got from that is that the “Affordable Care Act” was even more of a lie than I thought if it requires subsidies on top of subsidies just to paper over the truth.
100% of polls are 75% propaganda and 60% of them tell you exactly what you want to hear 100% of the time. Also scrying has a 100% record of being 72% more accurate than polling.
The Dems are the party of handouts. As long as each of their voters gets something, they will continue to vote for Dems no matter how destructive they get.
Remember they have their party effectively brainwashed. In this case, these are poor working class immigrants, some of them who are even citizens, and the Republicans want to keep them from taking their sick child to the ER. They’re even going door to door in the cities rounding up Anne Frank and her family. It’s all bullshit but they have a captive audience.
I’ve even seen glimpses on my FB feed this week talking about what an evil religion Christianity is.
Throw off your antediluvian gender stereotypes, men
The road ahead looks grim unless something changes. The future will be built on jobs that demand patience, empathy and steady communication. Teaching, nursing, counseling and care work form the backbone of any strong society. They keep communities together, help the sick recover and guide children into adulthood. They carry respect, decent pay and growing demand. Yet men hold back.
Pride and habit stand in the way. Nursing carries a feminine label. I’ll admit it myself — when I hear the word “nurse,” my mind still drifts to a woman in scrubs. The teaching of small children is dismissed as women’s work.
That instinct feels natural, but it is a learned reflex. It blinds men to jobs that could offer real stability and meaning. And it can’t go on. The shortages grow deeper, the gaps wider and the cost heavier.
This requires a radical rethink. No lectures, no guilt trips — just a cultural reset. Men should feel pride in classrooms and hospital wards — the same pride they feel on construction sites or in boardrooms. These jobs build the future as surely as bridges or businesses. Without men stepping forward, the nation grows weaker, poorer and more unprepared.
Embrace the feminine. That’s how truly strong societies are built.
Teaching, nursing, counseling and care work form the backbone of any strong society
Yeah, fuck them sewer workers, power workers and garbage men. Teachers and *checks notes* ‘counselors’ are the real ones who keep society going.
“For the first time in living memory” 🙄
Have they been hiding under a rock for the last couple decades?
Mabye they’re just not interested. Crazy talk I know, since men are just defective women.
They drove male teachers out of schools.
The country is already seeing the rise of sexless young men, drifting without purpose, cut off from work, family and the prospect of building a future. Whole swaths of men risk becoming spectators to prosperity. And history leaves little comfort here: when large groups of disaffected men gather at the margins, frustration festers into something darker — resentment, rage and revolt.
Oh, no the Great Incel Revolt is coming.
What a maroon.
Maybe something to do with decades of feminist messaging saying that women can do a better job of anything men can do – plus more things that only women can do.
I’m not in the dating market so I don’t really know, but I’ve also heard that with social media, it’s easier than ever for attractive young women to put themselves “out there” and for rich guys to scoop them up into their harem, which leaves a dearth of women who are interested in dating non-rich men in their local area.
Shakin’ ’em down here, boss
YouTube has agreed to pay $24.5 million to settle a lawsuit involving the suspension of President Donald Trump’s account following the U.S. Capitol riots on Jan. 6, 2021.
The settlement “shall not constitute an admission of liability or fault,” on behalf of the defendants or related parties, according to a filing on Monday from the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California.
Trump sued YouTube, Facebook and Twitter in mid-2021, after the companies suspended his accounts on their platforms over concerns related to the incitement of violence.
Since Trump won a second term in November and returned to the White House in January, the tech companies have been settling their disputes with the president. Facebook-parent Meta said in January that it would pay $25 million to settle its lawsuit with Trump. The following month, Elon Musk’s X, formerly Twitter, agreed to settle its Trump-related case for roughly $10 million.
Extortionist-in-Chief strikes again.
In August, several Democratic senators, including Elizabeth Warren of Massachusetts, sent a letter to Google CEO Sundar Pichai and YouTube CEO Neal Mohan expressing their concern over a possible settlement with the president.
The senators said in the letter that they worried such an action would be part of a “quid-pro-quo arrangement to avoid full accountability for violating federal competition, consumer protection, and labor laws, circumstances that could result in the company running afoul of federal bribery laws.”
We wouldn’t want that. Would we?
