Oh boy, here goes some whitewashing of Melania. Wait until she starts painting.

“Jailbroken”

“You told me I could tell lies unchecked!”

Bah. 60 Minutes would just softball him and let him say whatever anyway. They’re not who they used to be, and who they used to be wasn’t that great to begin with.

I guess I shouldn’t be surprised. Walz gave good answers about 90% of the time but definite dodged a few. Vance, otoh, made shit up constantly and harped on fear topics. Always about the border, blaming Harris for policy she wasn’t responsible for, and offering up an economy that the republicans have zero plans to create.

There’s the attack on intelligence by dismissing PhDs by basically calling them stupid and replacing intelligence with “common sense”, feels before reals.

The “experts” said shipping jobs overseas would save Americans money?

That wasn’t experts, that was business lobbyists and CEOs who wanted higher profits.

It’s great that vance keeps heaping responsibility on Harris for events that happened while she was VP, events which were nothing a VP could affect.

Also, the world was “stable” under trump because tens of millions of people were dying from covid and the world was locked down. If trump wants to take responsibility for the covid virus, go for it.

Another aficionado, I see.

Free porn site. Nothing too radical.

We had a bumper crop rhis year. Highly unusual. Often it’s hit or miss. Last year was pretty mild. Year before was almost none. We just moved here 4 years ago. I only spot fertilize individual plants. I don’t do “whole lawn”. I don’t clear all leaves, just mulch them in place. I don’t clear the edges so perfectly with the weed trimmer. I never use pesticide.

Makes me wonder if the previous owner did and they’re recovering.

Educate. They said they weren’t sure, so no need to be so critical of their knowledge. You, and all of us reading this, would be better served with a good layman’s explanation rather than you reinforcing how wrong the parent comment was. Twice.

Ads have ruined the internet. Truly.

Also: when conspiracy theories are convenient ways to avoid havig to understand how things work.

Ah, I remember this image. It received some kind of award or something and created a stir when it was revealed to be AI gen. I can see why that would be incentive to want copyright.

I play with AI image generation all the time. No way do I see that as my work, there’s no skill other than positive and negative prompts, maybe feeding it a a starter image set or something.

Where it might be more concerning is if you use AI gen to create an 2D example of something, then an artist creates a 3D physical representation of the thing. Who owns it? AI famously is not good at creating “whole” things, but one can certainly interpret that image to make a whole of it.

Could be just an extension of conservative indoctrination, getting in at “ground level”. They indoctrinate religion and prejudice. They are trying to make inroads at the local government level like school boards. Why not try to further that MO and go after disaffected young men. Works for jihadists and suicide bombers, it’ll work for the talibangelicals.

A lot of times bad spelling and grammar are both engagement bait ploys. People can’t resist clicking to make comments about it.

You’d have to take 16 in a day. Standard pill is 200mg. I can’t imagine taking that many. Most I’ve ever taken is 2.

Odd, it was the other way around where I lived. CC had the best prices while BB was overpriced, and like you said, CC’s gaming section was great.

It’s absolutely not a joke.

Abstract: *Violent far-right extremists have targeted critical infrastructure to radicalize and recruit members, promulgate their narratives, and sow chaos, all in an attempt to precipitate the destruction of political systems and society writ large. Accelerationist ideology, conspiracy theories, disinformation, and far-right extremist narratives have played a key role in the prioritization of critical infrastructure as a target for the violent far-right.

They’re more than inconveniencing people or causing damage and expensive repairs, they’re killing people.

The death of a woman that occurred after firearm attacks on power substations caused a massive power outage last year has been ruled a homicide, newly released autopsy records show.

ITT everyone talking about liver damage? It’s tylenol that is harder on the liver. Ibuprofen is harder on the kidneys. Yeah, you can mess with your liver if you take too much ibuprofen, too.
