I remember hearing about it, but missed it at the time. I'll check it out!

Primus is a criminally underrated band. This track popped up on a random yt playlist we had playing on the surround and our 4 years old made us replay it 3x before we could move on. 🀠

Gorgeous machine, but the angle of attack on those clip-ons is diabolical. πŸ˜„

Either the most absurdly phony or most profoundly deranged people alive. If they're this committed to the bit, it doesn't really matter which it is.

In a world where your employer can monitor and record your every key press, mouse click, and idle moment, set standards as they see fit, as well as fire/RIF you for whatever they please, cops are free to control the function of their body cams as they see fit.

What could possibly go wrong?

I’m beginning to think allowing all three branches of government to be captured sex predators, arch criminals, and bloodthirsty religious fundamentalists was a bad idea.

When all this war actually brings is more pointless death, destruction, and human suffering, they’ll move the goal posts, pack up their tents, and retreat back into the magical delusions of their racist death cult nonsense.

My dad was raised in the Catholic Church. For reasons, he grew to loathe organized religion and in particular magical religious rituals. To a sane person, this looks totally absurd and deranged, but the implications are mortifying.

These fundamentalists are vessels of malevolence and cruelty.

The abundance crowd might be losing one of its favorite sons. If Polis goes through with this farce, he must have decided that he’s done with politics in favor of stepping into a private sector β€œjob” that will grant him generational wealth.

An IPO pump and dump paired with inevitable, rapacious insider trading on the prediction markets. The Epstein class is going to cash in on SpaceX. Retail folks will burn up in the drive plume. Meanwhile, the big players moved to cash and are sitting on huge war chests in anticipation of disaster.

When the global hegemon hands the government to a fundamentalist death cult, things are not going to go well. A bunch of magical thinking fundamentalists believe conquering a country of 90 million people will be easy. They sincerely believe they're catalyzing The Rapture. They're complete idiots.

I haven't been following F1, but the algo put this in front of my eyes during morning coffee today. Building an engine that shakes the car to pieces and destroys the drivers' nervous systems? How long before we learn Honda's engineers vibe-designed the rotating assembly of this engine using Grok? πŸ˜†

Our government and military working hard to win hearts and minds - by stopping them - all over the world. We can all be πŸ’― certain nothing bad will come of this. The holy crusaders in the MAGA admin have everything in hand.

Brad Colbow Welcome, this is an illustration channel focusing on tech, reviews and generally my journey to become a better illustrator. For a list of my favorite drawing hardware check out my website http://brad...

For sure, it is NOT cheap. I was lucky to be in greener pastures when the M4 pro released, otherwise I wouldn't have picked it up.

I would highly recommend checking out Brad Colbow's yt channel. He's a working illustrator who reviews gear across all price points/platforms.

If you have the budget, I would recommend going with an iPad Pro. Apple is πŸ’― a horrendous, evil company, but the drawing experience on a Pro w/CSP, the new pencil and an ESR matte screen protector is better than my old Cintiq 27QHD could ever muster before it died a couple months out of warranty.

These "believers" are murderous, and evil, and desperate to beat the world to death with their holy book in the name of their all-encompassing hatreds. We managed to put people on the moon and invent the internet, and yet, like some ancient bacteria, they are still with us. Terrifying stuff.
