What did the mean by this?

Musk, tech CEOs, insurance CEOs, crypto grifters, politicians, oligarchs

Who will it be next and when?

My 14-year-old asked me yesterday, "Why's the government so obsessed with people's genders?" and I froze like a deer in headlights.

You're right, Russia was completely ignorant of the battlefield condition of the war until I posted about it.

This is moralistic garbage, which is unfortunately the rhetorical currency of the globalists because they have nothing else to say.

For three years, President Trump and I have made two simple arguments: first, the war wouldn't have started if President Trump was in office;… https://t.co/xH33s6X5yf

This is bullshit. “Russians have a massive numerical advantage in manpower and weapons in Ukraine, and that advantage will persist regardless of further Western aid packages.” https://t.co/YbH7H3wShO

Behind the tough guy language, there is no argument here. What's the firepower advantage of the respective parties to the conflict? Manpower? How might that change with further NATO action, and how are you proposing to change it?

As it turns out, I'm right and Joshi is wrong,… https://t.co/de9QIt0UjR

Well, thank God also for free and open debate.
Having visited Ukraine every year but one since 2011, I think I have an informed and realistic view.
I repeatedly criticized the Biden administration for its failure to deter Putin in 2021 and failure to end the war while Ukraine…

In this thread I'll respond to some of what I've seen out there. Let's start with Niall:

1) On the general background, yes, you have been more right than wrong on a lot of the details of the conflict. Which is why I'm surprised to hear you call the administration's posture… https://t.co/w7OQemI3R7

Despite the high price, Valve will allegedly sell the headset at a loss, prioritizing user experience over profitability.

Probably will be first hardcore gaming VR since meta headset is a bit like early days of iPhone when it had its own unique market.

And probably we will get Half Life Alex 2

Some dangerous nooooticing going on here , I hope our favourite jannies @kallocain-addict are keeping a tight leash on the potential hate speech!

Whenever I go out in public I am approached at least once or twice by a guy hitting on me or just complimenting me. Every single time it's a black or Latinx guy. The only times I have ever been cold approached in public by a white guy, it's been an older one, like 45+.

Curious... What requisites does rs_x believe could be the cause for this phenomenon?

I feel like it has less to do with ethnicity and more to do with class. White-collar guys don't usually approach random women on the street, that's a blue-collar guy's game.

Contradicting /u/blondbutginger 's lived experience here...

Yeah you have a point. It's not usually middle/upper class black men hitting on me, it's bums.

Here's our resident cute twink's contribution:

it's cultural, latinx culture for example is generally much more s*x positive meanwhile contemporary mainstream white culture doesn't reward that kind of behavior (on the contrary, you are more likely to be chastised or even punished for it)

You yt prudes are just too neurotic and inhibited!! Punishing any sort of free sexual expression!! The browns and blacks sensibly revel in their lower inhibit --- ACK

Y'all can't behave.

I saw the face of God,

It was a thing neverending,

My eyes forever trying to grasp,

Cast adrift, a visage too vast to hold.

/

It was a thing without angles, edges, or depth,

It was a thing from a time long before them,

It was the first time I felt grateful,

To possess a mind too feeble, to comprehend.

/

My good man, the man of science,

He was not so lucky a soul,

Somehow the ant managed to grasp,

A single crevice and hold on, for but a moment.

/

A moment I will never understand,

'cept for this, the man was changed,

I could not sense it right then,

'cept for the stars that now felt too cold to bear.

/

We walked back to the car,

And traveled down an hours long road, without break,

We couldn't even drift our eyes away no longer,

And so carried on in silence, staring at our hands.

/

We parted ways without a word,

And as I said, I was fortunate,

That I could not comprehend,

And so I went about life,

With the additional knowledge of "don't go there. Don't frick with that."

/

My good man of science on the other hand,

They say he disappeared,

and after months of searching,

There still hasn't been a trace.

/

That's not the worst that bothers me though,

It is the fact that I at times must pass through his town,

And more and more people now I see,

Prefer to stare at the ground, unwilling to recognize the stars.

/

I think he brought back some understanding with him,

And now it is in the very ground where he lived,

But thankfully I am just an average fool,

And all I need to know about the place," Don't go there. Don't frick with that."

/

Lucky me, I know a few other routes that skip the town entirely.

Such elite human capital, brings a tear to one's eyes

Telling on myself here, but I mostly only listen to true crime podcasts, and almost exclusively when I'm running or working out. I like them because there's a built-in element of drama and kind of trashy gossip of digging around in the refuse of someone else's life. Also a little tiny bit of fear/danger element that gets me amped up when I'm running, especially at night like what if I have to run away from a psycho???

I don't generally like sort of hang-out-and-shoot-the-shit interview podcasts, but I see that so so many people do. Is it a parasocial thing? Like if you like the hosts and you want to imagine being friends/lovers with them? Or maybe you are not a funny and clever person yourself / you have no inner monologue, so you need a podcast to fill your head with other people being funny and clever on your behalf?

Anyway, what do you look for in your podcasts? What should I start listening to?

Or this is an open thread, just chat about whatever. I got a new breadmaker and it fricking sucks. How do you know if a breadmaker is bad or just the recipes or maybe you suck at pouring four ingredients in a pot and pressing the "start" button correctly? Someone told me I should use the recipes off Bread Daddy instead of the ones in the book that came with the machine. Anyone here tasted the Bread Daddy's dough?
