Well, we all see where this is going. Excuse me while I go invest all my retirement money in abacus factories.

"Data Analyst Finds that 'Lazy Awful Game Stigma' Can Reduce the Number of Reviews a Game Gets by 53% - And the Reviews it Does Get are More Negative"

The top left one especially because, in the full photo, they're sitting on a statue of two parrots having sex.

Three thoughts:

• A 3-4 point "slim" lead is absurd as we watch Trump light the country, our savings, and future generations' financial stability on fire.
• I don't pretend to know what will happen this fall but "disappointed" seems like the correct left-leaning calibration since 2016.
• I am so sick of right-biased political minority rule in this country. Since 2000 have we at any time had a presidency, senate, and House that were all controlled by the party that got the most votes in a given election?

I think it got rid of the mom's bad dreams, which include her weight and son's individuality.

I think that ship has left the dock, and already hit an iceberg. Reports are that Barron is a fan of Andrew Tate and was part of the reason he was released.

Ah, thank you.

Sometimes I just like to curl up in my summes after a long winter.

I agree with dunking on the deflection, but this is more a red herring logical fallacy, which is (as the image says) presenting an irrelevant (whether true or false) subject change to avoid rebutting the argument. It could also perhaps be framed as ad hominem or appeal to hypocrisy, though neither truly fit.

Not really a straw man fallacy, which involves presenting an intentionally weak version of a relevant core argument to easily rebut it.

Pretty standard kabuki politics.

Tillis and Cassidy are retiring or lost their primary. The rest of the "rifts" are barely disagreements, from Ted Cruz and Nikki Haley - effectively "I'm so upset with Trump I'm not going to cup the balls for the next five minutes."

For the rest, I'm sure they're very upset behind closed doors, which is great for them because they can get all that aggression out before going on Fox News and telling the world it's the best deal of the century and Trump is a master negotiator.

Toddler's drawing ass-object?

In his memo, Zuckerberg predicted that even more difficult days could be ahead for the company, despite vowing to hold off on any future layoffs for the rest of the year.

“Given the complexity of these changes, we’ve made mistakes and will almost certainly make more,” he admitted.

"I will certainly make more mistakes that you will have to pay for, but I can promise you you will probably not be laid off for at least six months."

Apart from the injustice from this obvious fascist move, some observations:

• This was done by DHS, not the FBI or local law enforcement. This is also almost certainly intentional, to continue to position the DHS as a law enforcement replacement. They have the budget and most convenient excuse to ignore constitutional protections since they are framed as border enforcement. This signals the DHS and Mullin will continue to expand beyond border enforcement and act with more impunity as Trump's (i.e., Stephen Miller's) personal regime enforcers.
• The focus of the charges is nebulous stalking and conspiracy to impede allegations. There's really no limit to how broadly these can apply to protestors and observers. Because this is happening now...
• The timing further supports a plan to ramp up ICE activity over the summer and fall leading to the midterms. The goals here likely remain to both (a) create a situation where lawful protest instead becomes a basis to invoke the Insurrection Act and station ICE agents and (b) create a test case for detaining opposition figures at key times.
• Newsweek using the terminology "Antifa cells," a designation implying an organized terrorist group when "Antifa" is of course not an organized group and is really just what the right calls protestors, reminds us that the media will continue to legitimize these actions.

Musk is the living embodiment of the Dunning-Kruger effect, and his wealth represents the exact monetary value delta of confident ignorance over intelligence.

The thought they have immediately before or after is also, "I'm the next Steve Jobs." It's always about the ego before any product or need.

More likely Stephen Miller, who is the most creative of the evil sociopaths currently in the White House.

Pretty much what they did in China as well. Google, back when they had a backbone, decided to leave instead, and Apple was like, "How can we censor ourselves better for you?"

Trump administration: It's fine to not actually govern as long as we can make it appear so.

AI: It's fine to not actually produce real work and intelligence as long as we can make it appear so.

Not exactly surprising they were made for each other.

Poomp!
