I once heard a woman use the word ‘mansplaining’ incorrectly and there was literally nothing I could do about it.

Libertarian talk radio host Neal Boortz used to call Sean Hannity "Baby Jesus" because he was just so damn wonderful. (As sarcasm.)

Well, my two quantum stocks are up about 8x so hopefully it will continue to go up so that I can afford a gallon of gas.

All is not bad news. The March jobs report indicates that the U.S. economy added 178,000 jobs, with the unemployment rate decreasing to 4.3%. Job gains were primarily in healthcare, construction, and transportation sectors.

Factor in the number of graduates in each field and it might have something.

@jon-nyc said: From a new Finnish study. https://x.com/suzylebo/status/2040485163252031698?s=46 This is nothing new. Peterson laid it out quite well over a decade ago. Gender Dysphoria is not the root cause , it’s a symptom. The fact that in over 90% of the cases it actually resolves itself through puberty tells you everything you need to know…

AI may result in the downfall of civilization - but it's a godsend for meme production.

@89th said: You wonder what Vance's wife says in private. She has a remarkable poker face, but you know she is DYING inside for the sake of her husband's potential career. I would not be so sure. It's not uncommon for a wife to be supportive of her husband's career aspirations.

It ain't just in Minnesooota.

I use Gemini (aka TARS) on a 2nd vertical monitor at work. I mostly type in questions such as figuring out the best technical query or advice on how to integrate 2 systems. So it's mostly a powerful search engine with pretty good answers by default. I also use it to generate an image here and there, such as for a corporate blog I manage each week.

I remember leading up to the 2024 election there was some momentum behind a potential Carlson candidacy if Trump was going to be in prison. I could see it. Also, that first sentence...imagine saying that out loud 15 years ago during the Carlson bow-tie and Trump apprentice years.

As I noted earlier, there were a few options that had a daytime launch, and what a spectacular launch that was. I know there's recency bias, but to my eyes and many who've seen plenty of launches, it was one of the most beautiful launches (visually) they've ever seen.

I like Piers. He's consistent.

Heh. https://x.com/davidafrench/status/2039428864997220514?s=46
