I remember about 5 years ago lib rags were publishing articles about how China could never compete with the soft power of Japan and South Korea because their cultural exports would never be seen as cool. Those same writers are probably Chinamaxxing now as we speak.
It would be cool if we normalized the arrest of our leaders. That is one aspect of occupied Korea that I envy. Four of their last seven(!) presidents have been imprisoned. Two were actually sentenced to death but later commuted to life sentences. Trump has a list of convictions a mile long and never even saw the inside of a jail cell because we're afraid of holding our ruling class accountable.
Poppy has been replaced by wheat, a low-value crop, boding ill for the economy, poverty and the ban's future.
Holy shit that is one evil sentence.
One anonymous lone gunman is going to force more change to the health insurance industry than 20 years of empty Democratic campaign promises.
Who is tuning in to Amazon to watch lib coverage of the election that CNN and MSNBC already do much better? I watched a few minutes of this out of curiosity and it's a low budget shitshow with shoddy production and camera work. And Brian Williams? Did I miss his redemption arc? Wasn't he banished from NBC for being the George Santos of network news? Is this all Jeff Bezos could afford?
Look at this champagne socialist decadently feasting on, uh, bread, while riding a train.
They're only 3 years apart but it looks more like 20 on stage. Biden is the perfect foil to make a senile Trump look full of youthful vitality. Literally could not have chosen a worse opponent from the entire gallery of DNC ghouls to face him. Wait, I take that back. Hillary would still be worse.
In mid-March, the Israeli army acknowledged that it has been facing the biggest mental health crisis since 1973.
Yeah, slaughtering innocent civilians tends to weigh on your conscience. If it was this traumatizing to pull the trigger, just imagine how the other side felt.
This AI bubble is rapidly accelerating and it will take the entire market (and global economy) down with it. And while Sam Altman didn't singlehandedly ignite the new silicon arms race, OpenAI (and ChatGPT) did usher in the era we are now living in.
Much was said about Nvidia overtaking Microsoft today to become the world's most valuable company, but take a look at the top 3:
They are ALL beneficiaries of partnerships with OpenAI. Microsoft added a trillion dollars of market cap since partnering with them last year and Apple hit new all time highs after their announcement that ChatGPT will power "Apple Intelligence". And Nvidia? Well, they were just a $300 billion dollar video game card maker 5 years ago and now they are the biggest company on earth because their cards train AI models.
I'm just flabbergasted at how quickly and thoroughly the promises made by one small startup has become the economic backbone of the entire stock market. The bubble popping for this hype cycle will be one for the ages.
Why the FUCK didn't she say this 30,000 casualties ago?
We're having these false "existential threats to our democracy" crises with such frequency and regularity now that everyone will be too desensitized to the warnings when the actual threat does arise.
2 parties with identical policies but one of them is openly racist while the other is kind of ashamed of appearing racist so it tries to conceal it in public.
Clearly Hamas is the very caricature of evil so anything less than sadistic violence must be done for propaganda purposes
I wonder just how much more provocation is necessary for libs to accept that violent retaliation is justified.
Selling plasma is just one more essential component in the grindset gig worker's stack. They fit in a blood drawing session in between delivering Grubhub orders and Uber rides.
