    Good news of course, but it's pretty freakin' sad that this is even an issue.

    Yep. It's a little tedious to complain about it for so many years, I mean I don't want TNCR to be to that sort of discrimination what it is to Donald Trump. That would make it nearly unreadable, as I'm sure we can all imagine. If I had been personally touched by that sort of discrimination, you can be sure I'd have been talking about it a lot more. But I haven't been, even as a person with a brain stem and thus aware that the discrimination exists. One twist to the original Jacob Savage piece, which I haven't read, is that it's in a left-wing publication, and it ends with the author regretting not simply accepting his fate and finding a more boring job that is less discriminated against for people who look like him. I heard it called a "permission piece", where a left-leaning outlet admits something difficult for them to admit, but in a way that it's still ok.

    You can imagine instructing your car to go charge itself and come back while you’re in a store or something.

    There used to be a conservative commentator (forgot which) who would make points about social programs failing by showing how their desired effects either didn’t show up in the data or worse, the opposite effect was shown in the data. He would put a graph of poverty rates in his article, for example, and ask ‘can you tell when the war on poverty started? Well…. https://x.com/joni_askola/status/2003152698078822670?s=46

    I just a pill where you can eat anything and your body only absorbs the nutrients you need and discards the rest! But I suppose a hunger repressing pill is 2nd best.

    The self proclaimed Emporer, Donaldoofus Trumpsterus is at it again…. Envoys are informal appointments and unlike official diplomats, do not have to be approved by the host country. What this appointment shows is that Trump's ambition to control Greenland remains undimmed. As with his military and rhetorical aggression towards Venezuela, it indicates Trump is determined to gain greater control over what his recent National Security Strategy called "the Western hemisphere", a sphere of influence that he hopes will cover the whole of the Americas. Trump tried to buy Greenland during his first presidential term. Both Denmark and the Greenlandic government rejected the 2019 proposal, saying: "Greenland is not for sale." https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/ckgmd132ge4o

    Well, I think that if common engineering sense tells you that it can't really make a difference, and nobody can reliably identify a difference in a blind test, and you are still buying it, then it means you've crossed a border you probably shouldn't have crossed. I hear that "audiophiles" also invest a fortune into cables that carry digital signals - where it's technically impossible that a better cable, regardless of how sophisticated or expensive, can make any difference at all.

    I don’t follow every word said, but overall I’d place all my chips behind the intelligence and brilliance that is Ben Shapiro. Rarely have I listened to him and disagreed with his point and his mind is on a different processing level than most.
