It’d be like a remake of Red Dawn but with the cast of Letterkenny.

Yeah Bush had a lot of Boris Johnson energy.

They’re jangling their keys in front of the Democrats now to:

• hedge their bets in case of Trump unpopularity and a midterm loss and
• preclude any anti-corportist reform in that party after their blowout loss

Ok I admit, now it’s starting to get funny.

Yeah that went great.

One crazy outcome was that the Royal Mail’s enforcement division (mall cops) were still legally real police even though their job was now to protect the company’s revenue. This ended up enabling them to convict thousands of employees of theft and then railroading them through the court system after botching accounting software screwed up their books:

This isn’t uncommon, there are deferral programs for student loans but these typically come with compounding interest (basically, your payments are covered each month by an additional loan which gets added to the principle).

They will edit Google Maps to show Canada and Greenland as part of the US, and Ukraine as part of Russia.

Musk is slowly arriving at the horrifying realization that actions have consequences.

Historically Tesla’s security is as bad as DOGE’s. They got hacked a while back because they had an unsecured kubernetes control plane exposed to the internet. Apparently being owned by a [edit: seagull managing] drug addict isn’t good for opsec.

EDIT: I incorrectly used a medical term to describe Elon’s management style. Sorry everyone.

Wait till Elon finds out pardons don’t work in Canada.

r/Conservative are like the lambs from Animal Farm.

I’m going to refuse to agree to the TOU when they try to force it on me. If they block me from using FF without the TOU then I will switch to something else. I think everyone should consider waiting until they try to force a TOU and then rejecting it, if you want to send a strong message.

Except they aren’t trash, they’re better than Teslas that’s for sure.

It’s possible to be trash and also better than Tesla…

Don’t worry. I’m sure he’ll get a pardon.

In both cases it’s millennials. It’s even called “millennial grey.”

Don’t worry Tesla diamond hands: Trump will announce a “Strategic TSLA reserve buying scheme.”

Also known as the Kamala Harris strategy: punch left and hug a war criminal.

Too many villains in our society, not enough heros.

Unironically one of the most surprising thing about the current crop of techbros is how anti-intellectual they are. Back in the day Paul Graham published a smarmy essay about how you shouldn’t have possessions except books. Nowadays, I see so many techbros saying “I hate books” and “I never read.”

It’s weird to have your self identity be both I’m smarter than everyone else and also I don’t read. I really am baffled at how they square that circle.

When I was a kid there was a cartoon called Captain Planet.

The bad guys would build these factories that didn’t seem to produce anything but pollution. Like, they would take in trees and sea creatures or whatever, and the only thing that would come out is smog and green water. It was very on-the-nose.

Bitcoin is a pollution factory.
