“They did one crime and got caught and were all ‘We’re sooo sorry we did a crime.’ Pussies. We do a dozen crimes before breakfast and we don’t apologize like a cuck and nobody says a thing.”
JD Vance: "I think Nixon's historical legacy is enjoying a bit of a renaissance, and deservedly so. I joked that if Watergate happened tomorrow, it would be like a 12 hours news story. The idea that it took down a presidency is crazy."

the entire conservative media apparatus was born out of a conviction that what happened to Nixon should never again happen to a Republican president and it worked and they now feel comfortable enough to admit it

It's discovery. It's all discovery. People browse YouTube. They don't browse Apple Podcasts.
I resent the video-fication of podcasting. That's just a TV show. Podcasts aren't supposed to be for hot people. They have everything else

It’s incredible how Trump says stuff that makes him seem very dim in every speech (like this talking point) and he never thinks twice about it

They’d rather burn their own party and country to the ground than actually accomplish what the people who elected them want.
Thirteen Democratic House members and candidates announced their support for a centrist initiative aimed at pushing back against the party’s tilt toward democratic socialism.

Ted Cruz: "We are seeing a cancer on the right. It is rising antisemitism ... here's the scary thing: I've seen more antisemitism on the right over the last 18 months than any time in my life. And it's spreading like a cancer. Tucker Carlson is the most dangerous demagogue in America."

There should be legal repercussions for going on national media and spewing lies like this.

Big Inflation has some strong lobbyists in this administration.

This is one of the things I love about Coppola’s Dracula. Other than makeup effects, everything was done with the kind of camera tricks or special effects that were available when the 1931 Universal Dracula was released, and they contribute to this otherworldly feeling throughout.
One of the things this prompt has me thinking is that CGI is capable of amazing things, but there’s something a little extra in how much special effects of decades past functionally worked as magic tricks. The excitement of seeing a special effect came in part from wondering how they did it. 1/
Buster Keaton didn't stand still while a two-ton housefront collapsed on top of him with a window cut out to barely clear his shoulders on each side so you could tell me that AI is "inevitable."

The greatest single-episode character on the Simpsons must be either Lyle Lanley or Hank Scorpio, but I can't decide which.

Whenever I see OpenAI's Sam Altman with his pseudo-innocent glance, he always reminds me of Carter Burke from Aliens (1986), who deceived the entire spaceship crew in favor of his corporation, with the aim of getting rich by weaponizing a newly discovered intelligent life-form.

Cannot fucking believe an external 4TB SSD drive that cost me $200 last year is now $1100. Had to check receipts to make sure. They’re really out there trying to keep
you from having a PC, phone, or a gaming console so they can have hallucinating, polluting chatbots that drop bombs on kids’ schools.
