Lebanon really needs some fucking air defense systems. This is absolutely ridiculous.

People act like cheap gas is some sort of birth right, and their precious fucking cheap gas is more important than human lives. It’s really quite sickening.

That would be true of any technology. Technology doesn’t have agency; my comment is clearly directed at corpos that are pushing it.

Why would this new cool technology should be an exception?

I very often do push back against things that they try to force down everyone’s throat. AI is not exceptional in this regard.

How about allowing AI to be rolled out and adopted organically instead of trying to gavage it down everyone’s throats?

Renting makes sense if the monthly cost is significantly less than what it costs to buy AND you save the difference and invest it. The last part is key, because it makes your retirement income higher and thus able to handle increasing rents. If you don’t save the difference (including if you are unable to), then you are actually falling behind.

Another factor that needs to be considered is multi-family housing vs single-family, which is a distinction that is separate from the rent vs buy discussion.

Fwiw, I’m firmly in the “rent MFH, buy SFH”. I don’t want to buy a condo or rent a house.

Proper mustache-twirling comicbook villains

It’s a fundamental flaw with the 2-party system. There are no good options, only a “lesser evil” option.

Our government bombs schools and then the parents and rescue workers that come to help. It seems that no level of depravity is off the table for these fucking degenerates.

No lives matter, except for the rich. And they have the fucking balls to ask “why aren’t people creating new victims reproducing anymore?”

Cruelty is the point.

Better a “fake ass” animal abuser than a real animal abuser.

Several hospice and health care providers were raided by federal authorities

I see his attacks on medical facilities and personnel are not limited to other nations. Foucault’s boomerang in action, even if the mechanism of the attacks is different.

I’m honestly just running the clock down at this point. My QoL is still quite good, so I’ll press on for now.

I’m in my late 40s and saw fit to get sterilized in my 20s. I wasn’t sure when shit would really start deteriorating, but I expected to see it kick off in my lifetime.

Dear Micro$lop: Quit trying to make it happen

Oh we’ll claw back into 2025 (if we aren’t already). How deep will we dig?

With us running headlong towards Great Depression 2.0, this doesn’t seem far-fetched

These clowns and their maximalist bullshit. Were they playing paddycake for the past 5 weeks?

They probably think that if you break an egg by force, you can reassemble it by force.

In crapitalist America, secretary fires you.

Is Trump using the war to hide the files?

That would fall under the purview of “every possible measure”

Who am I kidding, they’ll go out of their way to avoid this. Literally everything except this.
