It really sucks that a gang of the worst guys from middle school ended up in charge of the military industrial complex

*Kylo Ren becoming so consumed by his inadequacy that he wastes precious time and resources on an old grudge, getting absolutely clowned by his opponents in the process*
US Government: Oh yeah baby, so bad ass, that's us. 100%
I just need to make a "Hockey East Mentioned" GIF
Jack Donaghy from 30 Rock discussing Kabletown, the fictional stand-in for Comcast that has just bought NBC. He is running a town meeting with the NBC staff in New York and says Kabletown deserves their respect "even if it is from..."
Jack looks bemused as he finishes, "Philadelphia".
Liz stands up in the audience of employees, shouts "Go Eagles!" and throws a snowball at Jack.
Whenever you guys mention a Hockey East school I turn into Liz Lemon bringing a snowball from home to huck at Jack in celebration of Philadelphia.
π notable!
I read the caption as "Satan quitting his job with sore boils" and I was like, damn, I knew he got cast out of heaven but I didn't realise he'd gone out with a prank resignation.
A bespoke rejection experience
100% The net that I want for saving me must also catch anyone else in the same circumstances. That's the deal.
The "leftists made me embrace the right" pipeline is littered with people who always only wanted a robust safety net for "the right people". Which is, you know, already a right-wing ethos!
I think the original claim is backed up by a robust research tradition
In conversation terms, LLMs are a bit like playing tennis against a brick wall. Models are just walls big enough that ~everything hits them, with weighted topography to angle the human's shots back towards them.
Doomer marketing is like "get ready, Wimbeldon 2027 will just be two brick walls"
Was this before or after he bought that hat to act as his personality?
Cool and sustainable leadership in the video game industry, demanding teams spend years making identical gargantuan cruise ships that are immediately sunk to the bottom of the ocean if the decks don't see enough foot traffic on the maiden voyage.
We're gonna bring him home!
There's a TV show where the richest of the rich get all their wealth stolen and redistributed to everyone else. The scene doesn't show how much the payment it is, and I'm always fascinated watching reactors going "wow, it *could be* hundreds of dollars!" when it'd be TENS OF THOUSANDS at minimum.
I'm not sure I've ever seen a league refer to their own teams as the "worst" seed rather than the "lowest" (or "lower") seed.
WILD CARD
We live in a world in which its entirely possible that Iran negotiations failed because people involved bet the under.
"Suicide drone"
So a guided projectile, then? I'm not sure missiles were ever expected to come home to their families after a mission.
Look, the current US military leadership will strap a combat knife to the front of a roomba if it means the roomba goes to jail instead of them.
Convincing my Mom that Daytona USA will become God if I just empty 10 billion more quarters into it
"Man, Bernie Madoff really got betrayed by his clients, you know?"
Have we done a round one yet?
A scene from Inglourious Basterds where a British man undercover as a Nazi officer gives himiself away by holding up the wrong three fingers (his pointer, middle, and ring fingers) to indicate 3 instead of the German custom (thumb, pointer, and middle).
Including ESPN on my list of wacko leftist sports outlets and leaving off @defector.com
The reason you canβt give a single inch on anything be it trans rights or dignity for unhoused people is that they, democrats and republicans alike, will take it and say thanks what else is in your pockets? They wonβt say thanks actually.
"Catch ow" - Lightning McQueen describing what he just did
"Woah, how is this 2+ hours?"
(Sees the Lost in Space diving bell suit)
"How is this under 4 hours??"
Clearing out your drafts folder?
"everyone else is a video game that I am playing by myself"
Your story is such a perfect example of taking the entirety of that kid's actions - evidence for what he was trying to do vs. a cold, self-serving read of what happened - and building real social trust on top of that practical trust. Interactions w/o that are inhuman, degrading, and everywhere now.
