He'd just spend a few billion to build an impenetrable bunker habitat. I think the guy just needs to lay off the drugs and go cold turkey with the social media sewage system.

Trump v. Musk Who didn't see that one coming? Two huge egoists trying to work together? Ha! The only surprise is it lasted as long as it did. My speculation is Musk is trying to recover Tesla now that the market has dropped out of his firm. The only quick way to do that is to win back his buyers by going after DJT. The logic of psilocybin, ketamine, and ecstasy, I suppose.

No CAPS at all? Clear English writing with no rants? Are we supposed to believe that was written by DJT?

I see El Jefe has gone with the "Yes I am a crime lord" look for his official portrait. At least it doesn't look "distorted". Heh. It fits with his theme of pardoning despicable people. Trump pardons former sheriff convicted of bribery

Ruh-roh

I'd read it was an underwater explosion, which should be more effective if done right. Yet the bridge is apparently still standing.

Targeting strategic bridges seems like an efficient form of asymmetrical warfare, if Ukraine is looking to further disrupt the Russian economy. Bridges are expensive to put up (as are strategic bombers).

....and finished. In retrospect it probably wouldn't work as a live action series. It's pretty brutal, a lot of the dialog is internal, and the landscape is pretty bleak for much of the story.

My political hat suggested that Josh Shapiro would be a decent Democratic candidate, since he hails from the critical state of Pennsylvannia. However, he has three strikes against him: he's white, he's male, and he was raised Jewish. He just doesn't check enough Democrat party dogma boxes. Buttigeig is at least gay. Check. But he comes from a smaller state. His being intelligent and having served in Afghanistan probably doesn't help much in the primaries.

Looks like the zombie theme isn't quite dead yet.

New poll shows who Dems want in 2028 — and it’s not Kamala Harris It's Pete Buttigieg. Surprise. But other polls put Harris in first, so who knows at this point? Supposedly Harris is considering a run for governor of California. Not sure if that suggests Gavin Newsome is planning a run for Prez. His approval ratings in California have sunk below 50% in most areas.

Hallucinating AI report confirmed: The AI Slop Scandal Around the MAHA Report Is Getting Worse Well at least it's consistent with the rest of the MAGA party's conspiracy theory mindset. I suppose after enough beers it even starts to make sense.

White House acknowledges problems in RFK Jr.'s ‘Make America Healthy Again’ report Perhaps AI hallucinations? Make AI Healthy Again. MAHAhahahaha...

Court says Trump doesn't have the authority to set tariffs "Stuff" just got real. But why did it take them so long to rule?

Re-reading the Broken Earth series from N. K. Jemisin because it's been a few years now, and I'm seeing a lot of details I missed the first time through. I was thinking maybe Sonequa Martin-Green to play the role of Essen. She's 40 now so that fits. How about Morgan Freeman for Alabaster? Timothée Chalamet could be Hoa.

Live-Action Elden Ring Movie on the Way from A24 and Director Alex Garland Of course it's not going to be another video game to movie train wreck, right?

German court convicts 4 ex-Volkswagen managers of fraud in emissions scandal A decision that resembles actual justice? Well good on the German judiciary then.

More likely it's the result of confirmation bias.

I think you just contradicted yourself. The ready availability of USA sources vs. a higher risk of extracting central Ukraine sources will have an impact on investments.

I think they only said they have multiple games in development. That may indicate they have something other than WH40K in the works. Time will tell.

The US just found an enormous deposit of lithium on the Nevada-Oregon border. (US$1.5 trillion worth.) Another giant deposit was found in Arkansas. Not to mention large amounts of lithium found in fracking deposits. That may change the resource situation a bit.

Well it's almost barbeque season, if it isn't already.

Nothing really. It's a day of introspection.
