    I mean, even if the follow up comment was authentic, the picture is clearly AI and her matching the couch was an intentional thing…

    It’s an “alley oop” post, you intentionally miss the obvious joke, and set up the next person to get the punchline.

    Reddit it was really easy back in the day, but on here 99% of the time no one makes the obvious punchline.




  • It’s been less than a month since he left office and Addams has already launched and rug pulled a crypto coin…

    But there’s no term limits for Mayor, and I don’t think Mamdani has eyes on higher office. Mayor of NYC is damn the same as being president of most countries. There’s a good chance Mamdani sinks a decade or even longer trying to fix NYC before moving on.

    And honestly as well as he’d do in a statewide or national race, having an open and unapologetically socialist leader of NYC to show that progressive policy works is worth more than Mamdani in a higher office drowned out.


  • Well nVidia just sells the hardware to the AI companies, so even if the bubble pops, they won’t go bankrupt.

    Except all those companies are in an investor circle jerk with each other…

    If AI bursts it doesn’t just hurt nvidia’s sales of products used by AI.

    Nvidia has over $100 billion invested in OpenAI:

    https://www.cnbc.com/2025/09/26/nvidias-investment-portfolio.html

    And even more billions invested in other AI companies. Because the AI companies can’t afford to buy what Nvidia is selling at the price.

    This means Nvidia “owns” a bunch of those AI companies, and can take loans out on the valuation…

    If AI goes bankrupt, all those investments are worthless, which means banks call in the loans that used it as collateral. It could easily wipe out Nvidia.

    It’s not just one surface level thing, even tho that’s all you seem to have thought of. You’re worried about a couple hundred million in sales like it’s not sitting next to 100 billion dollar loan.

    Like bro, come on man…





  • So…

    It’s not a bubble because…

    “This is the largest infrastructure build-out in human history,” Huang said of active and promised data center projects. "And so the AI bubble is, comes about because the investments are large. And the investments are large, because we have to build the infrastructure necessary for all of the layers of AI above it."

    It’s something we’re sinking money into soley because we’ve already been sinking money into it, and we don’t want anyone else to get ahead of us even though literally no one has found a way to monetize it enough to make back prior investments let alone new investments…

    Like, he knows that’s literally the definition of an economic bubble, right?

    Is he just trying to grift dumb rich investors, or does he legitimately not understand his company could go bankrupt literally at any moment if the investor class ever comes back to reality?




  • Democratic leaders did not state they would whip a vote to push all members to follow their “no” vote.

    It doesn’t matter if they try even…

    Neoliberal control for the last decade was predicated on the “victory fund” and their willingness to cut off funding to an entire state party if reps from that state didn’t vote how they wanted.

    Martin immediately started giving those funds back, and we’ve been in the largest reinvestment from the DNC to state parties for almost a year straight.

    Shcumer and Jeffries are completely toothless, and I think we’ll see both of them start claiming they agree with progressives more now. Not because they agree with it or anything, they just know they’re powerless to obstruct it anymore, and would rather keep up the appearance that they matter so lobbyists keep bribing them.





  • What?

    They didn’t ask any questions, they asked if there was anything else I should explain to them…

    (And to explain why that doesn’t make sense, is I have zero clue what else they don’t know)

    So I suggested they ask a question if they had any …

    And I legitimately don’t understand why you’d respond to that with:

    Oh noes! People trying to engage on a social network explicitly created to foster discussion!

    I just don’t understand what you are doing
