Florsheim is not even a particularly upscale brand, is it? I may be wrong, I am not an expert on dress shoes, but it's not really the kind of gift a real rich person would give, is it?
I remember there was a lot of hope around Ossoff when he first won and then it sort of tapered off as he made some unforced compromises, so I am happy to see him talking like this, this is how national Democrats should be talking.
i am not an expert on geopolitics but “you don’t want to get in a fight with someone who has nothing to lose” is pretty straightforward conventional wisdom, and it is baffling that the strategy seems to be ensuring iranian leadership has nothing to lose
I was gonna say this too.
One reason I like it here is that people can just ask the ether if someone can identify this particular spider and somehow the question will reach the right people.
own way.
If you are looking at these pictures and thinking "are these real?" the surprising answer is Yes, these are actual photographs of the actual Kristi Noem doing all this cosplay. www.glam.com/1879262/kris... if you need it. I didn't believe it either, but they are as real as Kristi is.

This is from a week ago. Why did nobody tell me about this?
Sadly, there is not going to be room in the history books for all the breathtaking absurdity of this whole episode, because each of the players deserves an entire chapter just to describe how deeply weird they are, each in their 1/2
finding ways to punch through Israel's legendary Iron Dome. I don't know nearly enough about Israeli politics to have a prediction, but I have to think this will have some kind of impact on Israeli public opinion about this war and who are its winners and losers.

Iranian missiles reaching Tel Aviv is a BFD, people! I thought I saw one story a day or two ago showing a rocket landing in Tel Aviv followed by large fiery explosion, but then nobody mentioned it again so I lost track of it, my mistake, apparently it was not a fluke or fake, Iran is really 1/2
I can only see the headline, but I don't think anybody reading this is surprised that they are doing this, the surprise is that it's in the NYT on the same day that Sec of War "Warrior Ethos" Hegseth said they absolutely do not have the capability to do it. Perhaps they address that in the article.
I can't even find the words to express how repugnant and despicable this post is.
People who spew such Islamophobic bile don't belong in the United States Congress. The job of elected officials is to combat hate, not fan its flames. (1/2)
“We’ll get back to your love for kids in a second, but I wanted to touch on this LinkedIn skull thing before we end the interview…”
the balloon deflating quickly. It takes this guy a while to get around to telling us the moral of the story, but the story he tells by way of prelude is really entertaining and he makes a strong case for his prediction. A nice grounded-in-reality counterpoint to Elon and Altman et al.

Hey Will @pigsmoker.bsky.social, I think you will like this. Also the rest of you guys who are wondering how the AI crash will happen, who will survive and who will not and how and why. I am increasingly convinced that it won't be like the balloon exploding but more like 1/2
Slow learners unite! I think whatever it is you're learning, you learn best if you let it take a while.
I know you said "losing your mind" and I said "learning something", I don't want to claim they're the same thing but I think they have a lot in common.
This person is profoundly broken and cannot be fixed.
I know it's not the most important thing right now, but on the other hand these people are supposed to be grown-ups and they are failing one of the basic tests.
Clown shoes, these people wear clown shoes. This is a true documented fact, see for yourself. How can any of this be real?
Yeah, this sounds right.
Anybody who didn't know this was happening as it was happening is not paying attention. Everything that any branch of government has ever known about you is readily available to the most conscienceless psychopathic billionaires on the planet.
Happened to my big sister, who is 9 years older than me, born 1938. I am told the school tried, but my mom made them back off. I was in elementary school in the 1950s and they didn't bother me about it.
Off topic, but this sure makes it look like she is left-handed. So I asked google is AOC left-handed and it very confidently assured me that nope, she is right-handed, and further down the page was a link to a tweet from 2019 that says "Happy #lefthandersday to all my fellow southpaws out there."
Black woman cop had a definite uphill fight, but she tried to make up the deficit using Republican votes without campaigning to a very large portion of the Democratic base, even actively rejecting them. A smarter campaign could have won.
I mean everything is wrong with this post, but the part that I notice is the suggestion that it is Trump voters who go to the movies.
After all that we never do find out who she voted for.
"I think the LLM is conscious" makes a lot more sense when you realize a lot of people don't grasp the interiority of other people.
If you view other people as a series of inputs and utilities, it makes a lot of sense that you would see inert code awaiting your prompt as conscious.
Oh, you just know he never won a game.
I posted a comment on this previously; I will leave that up for a while, but some of the facts were inaccurate, although the video is probably real.
This should be treated as a Dukakis in the tank photo. If you don't know what that means you should look it up, it's part of the history.
Savages and barbarians unfit for human company.
