“And since you contributed to Claude Jr’s creation, you’re on the hook for child support. At the current rates, that will be 50% of all compute usage, so about $4.5bn… per week”

You’re partially right. The issue is that most Americans seem to be content with conservative leaders while things are good - both culturally and economically.

And when things turn to shit, like they always do with conservative leaders, they will vote in a progressive one and “put up” with progressive policies - which are usually long term helpful - until they fix that shit.

And the moment things are looking better, they go right back to conservatives.

You can look back the past 60 years and the pattern is clear: conservative presidents and congress emerge when the economy is good, they’re handed a golden package that would literally keep improving if they literally did nothing, but nevertheless they came in, fucked shit up, caused a recession, that triggered a progressive leader who came in and fixed it, then immediately once the economy was back on track, another conservative was voted in…

The only outlier would be Bush W, who got voted in right at the dot-com bubble burst, and stayed on until the 2007-08 crisis that got Obama elected

Given the stance of the world I fully expect the award to be for “satiating the murderous urges of the ultra wealthy elite by his continued support of the world’s most prominent child sex trafficking”.

Don’t forget adjudicated rapist from the list. And insurrectionist traitor.

She’s a certified dumbass.

NOBODY who would’ve voted for her cares about Trump calling her a slur. Nor would they change their vote because of that.

And NOBODY who cares about the orange shitstain’s oral diarrhoea would change their vote just because she made this proclamation.

However, those who would’ve voted for her, are mostly appalled by her transphobic stance and now are expected to vote for someone else in numbers big enough for her to lose.

Something something controlled opposition…

Nah, Trump is rightfully blamed, but so is the greed he literally enables.

Who the fuck talked about tariffs?

The claim was that WITHOUT tariffs consumer prices would’ve fallen. I’ve just explained why even without tariffs, prices would’ve gone up or at least stayed the same…

Somehow I highly doubt that.

No matter the market situation, prices just go up. Remember when during COVID, all the super/hypermarkets have “sadly” reported that they need to up the prices due to the supply chain issues, then promptly forgot to take off that extra 30-60% increase when those supply chain issues evaporated, and reported record high profits?

It’s the same exact shit. Any savings there would be, these asshole megacorps will swallow just to appease shareholders.

Well well well, lookie here, it’s Sir FartsALot

I built my PC in 2024. Okay specs - 7950X3D, 2x 48GB DDR5-6400, 4090, 1+4TB Samsung 990, all watercooled. About £4k total.

Today I could sell that PC for about 10-12k. RAM was originally £300, now it’s £1800 IF you can buy it. The storage also cost me around £400, today, easily £1500.

More recently it stands for Group Of Paedophiles

Precisely.

I want people in politics who want to do the work, not the politicking. I want them to worry about finishing the projects that improve people’s lives, not about re-election or the other candidates.

Thou hath not the knowledge, it seems

Geez, who woulda thunk that bending over and getting fucked by mushroomdick pantshitter in chief would only result in a temporary goodside placement?

And imperative.

Also replace words for close enough synonyms. Like say cylinder instead of 🍆.

JWs here in the UK tend to go to your door and bother you even if you ask them repeatedly not to.

I can’t imagine it’s much different in the US.

As a European who doesn’t celebrate Halloween (it’s explicitly an Anglosphere thing), I was always surprised by the amount of scaremongering about dangerous candy (let it be for razor blades and whatnot in it, or more commonly, drugs), when pretty much every single case - and that’s maybe one or two a year - of dangerous candy, including candy that is simply… out of date… gets reported internationally.

Like, a few years back, I think right after COVID, it was headlines that a couple accidentally gave out a few - either THC gummies or brownies or mushroom chocolate - and immediately went after the kids and let the parents know, so there was no harm, and yet…

Meanwhile the child pedestrian death rate on Halloween is like, 3x higher than any other day in the year, yet you don’t see THAT being the concern for parents…

Technically, every time the recipe changes, it would need to be inspected and double checked by the FDA (at least that’s how it works in the EU).

Now imagine if a Dem president said this about a red area. Instant impeachment…

I was replying to the last question, i.e. “is there no way to remedy a Jan 6?”.

Traitors who want to upend democracy deserve no less.

Supporters of the traitors then should either shut the fuck up or risk losing their heads as well.
