yes, we boiled the planet, but it was worth it to make a machine that, instead of adding two plus two, takes the statistical average of every answer to questions containing "what" "is" "two" and "plus" from a database of illegal cell phone transcripts and returns a fake nude pic of a high schooler

Russian forces took three months and thousands of lives to capture the "Kanal" neighborhood in Chasiv Yar. Since the start of the campaign to seize the city, the Russians have lost 99,000 personnel, mostly wounded but a lot of dead as well.

Niet vergeten dat het doel van de Poetin-vrienden in de Westerse parlementen is de democratie om zeep te helpen. Chaos creëren zodat kiezers er zich vanaf keren en een autocraat de macht over kan nemen. De goed getrainde Wilders liet vandaag in de Tweede Kamer zien hoe dat gaat

We have learned so much about how viruses transmit over the past four years & yet none of the passive yet effective measures (better ventilation, HEPA filtration) have been adopted as new standards. An opportunity to future proof our buildings & workplaces let slip away. www.rte.ie/news/2024/07...

On Russian television, a video was shown of a Russian soldier finishing off another Russian soldier after an FPV strike. However, they misrepresented these Russians as Ukrainians. An expert then commented on the "animalistic nature" and "fascist ideology." 🤥

Activists campaigning for Nigel Farage’s Reform UK party were filmed last week making racist and homophobic comments in the very seat Farage hopes to seize in the UK election. He swiftly “disowned” the views of the canvassers. But it was just the tip of the iceberg.

Small government. Original intent. Limited federal power. That’s what right-wingers said they wanted, my entire life. Bullshit. Bullshit. Bullshit. They want to control EVERYTHING, centrally run by a dictatorial president immune from prosecution. And it’s 100% un-American.

Since Trump and the alt-right takeover of the GOP xenophobia is now based on the claim that immigrants are trying to “replace” us. There’s no longer even a claim that they plan to do something; their presence itself is the offense. Immigrants are now intrinsically bad because of who they are.
