Thanks for sharing this article. I enjoyed it.

This is actually very cool! I’m surprised by the scale of what they can do with these nozzles.

A million…more?

I’ll cut you some slack since you admitted that you’re not American, but I have to correct you on a couple of points here:

1. There was never a mayor of New York City named “Comey”. I think you’re confusing him with the former governor of New York State, Andrew Cuomo, who was a mess, but that was a completely different issue.
2. The former mayor of New York City was not Andrew Cuomo, it was Eric Adams, who was also a mess, but he was a different guy altogether with a different mess.
3. Andrew Cuomo was running for mayor of NYC against both Zohran Mamdani and Eric Adams (who was running as an independent candidate, until he dropped out), and I think that’s where your confusion comes from.

Ha, fucker!

The damages done will last far beyond my lifetime and I’m fairly young.

Yes, they probably will.

And that’s an “at best” scenario assuming America even turns things around, which I am seriously beginning to doubt.

It will take a while to turn things around. I’m pretty hopeful about new voices like Mamdani and AOC, but I can’t make you share that optimism.

I disagree. There is no heir to the MAGA throne with Trump’s charisma (for lack of a better word). Vance is a wet noodle with the personality of an even wetter noodle, and Charlie Kirk is dead.

I understand what you’re saying, and there will be a lot to be fixed once the Trump era is over, both domestically and in realm of international relations, but Democrats are overperforming in every special election lately, even in deep-red areas, and an openly Democratic Socialist has just won the mayoral race a major American city. Then there is the spectre of the Epstein files, which is not going away, and for all their faults, the Democrats seem to be pursuing this doggedly. Republicans in congress are already jumping ship. I don’t expect them to invoke the 25th amendment on Trump, but it’s becoming increasingly obvious that he’s declining both mentally and physically. If we’re not at a tipping point yet, I’d say we’re damn close.

I honestly think Trump is circling the drain right now. It’s still big, wide circles, and I think he can do more significant damage before he’s done, but IMHO the beginning of his end has started.

But don’t dare say anything bad about Charlie Kirk, even if it’s a direct quote of his hateful rhetoric.

When asked to respond to the president’s call for parents to possibly limit doll purchases when approached while returning to his orifice. Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri, a fellow Republican who has a 5-year-old daughter, quipped that he wished someone would say the same to her.

Appropriately funny typo, but the punctuation is fucked up, too. Does anyone proofread these pieces?

I saw a meme a few weeks ago by a woman who was convinced that her cats cried for her to make the sun come out or to make it stop raining, not understanding that her powers are limited to light switches and the shower. I assume dogs are the same.

I 'member. How about that time he used Dijon mustard and the time he put his feet up on the Resolute Desk?

My GF, who has been a nurse for over 20 years, didn’t get a joke I made about Kash, so I showed her his official pic on my phone. Her exact words: “Ooh! In the psych unit we used to call those eyes ‘Manson Lamps’!”

I honestly think we’re close to the point where personal electronics are as powerful as they need to be and manufacturers are scrambling for more reasons for planned obsolescence. For example, the Windows 11 requirements are about secure boot, not processing power or memory requirements.

I’m still rockin’ my Galaxy S10 and the desktop I built in 2016. Both meet my needs just fine right now.

Next up: Totalitarian Taco Bar.

Signs for Empire Pizza on the old building were reported by KHOU 11 Monday, though it is uncertain whether the restaurant is open to the public yet.

I believe that building is cursed.

He does give greedy bottom vibes.

This man could have been one heartbeat away from the presidency.
