Were they in the US on leave?

Gotta spread that blowback around

A lot of people have low self esteem and/or don’t see themselves as attractive. Their perception of themselves isn’t always obvious, either. Flirting with them can give them that “nudge” they need to act on their feelings.

I’ve only seen a handful of articles from these folks, but they seem pretty thoughtful. This one is no exception. My favorite part:

Given the number of variables, however, much will depend on the wisdom and restraint of Trump, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khameini, and the people around them. And that does not bode well in the short or long term.

This is the closest I’ve ever seen them get to humor, but it works.

What site was attacked? I don’t think the article mentions it.

Thank you for saving me a click

I didn’t even know this was a thing. I’ll definitely watch out for it.

This headline irritates me. If it was a person, I’d tell it to fuck off for assuming I use AI.

Did this pic make anyone else think of Robotech? I half expect a Zentradi to climb out of that cockpit.

Virtually the same thing he says about AI could be said about climate change.

Damn

From The Middle East Eye:

It [the Samson Option] is in stark contrast, say analysts, to the doctrine of Mutually Assured Destruction (MAD), where if one nuclear power pre-emptively attacked another, then the targeted nation would still have time to retaliate, ensuring neither would survive.

I must be missing something important. I don’t understand why the Samson Option is “in stark contrast” to MAD. I mean, everyone still dies, so they seem pretty similar to me.

My upvote is contingent on the fact that I read this as sarcasm

That was fast.

Anyone who puts down a “deposit” on this should be declared mentally incompetent.

I’m in favor of anything that makes these dipshits more conspicuous. Trump bumper sticker? There’s no way I’m pulling over to help you if you’re stuck on the side of the road. MAGA hat? Then I don’t have a problem saying no to their perfectly reasonable request.

These people are helping destroy my country, and the Constitution. By continuing to display this propaganda, they’re telling everyone that they’re proud of it. I’ll let them pull themselves up by their bootstraps.

Can I put them on range and like shake it or something?

Only if you promise to post the video.

…and the other half insists on learning the hard way.

Anyone who demands “proof” doesn’t deserve it.

My concern is that if the Fediverse becomes big enough to truly threaten commercial options, corporations will find a way to destroy it - through lawsuits, malware, or using their political leverage to encourage overly restrictive laws.

I love the phrase “blinded by wokeness”. It’s just so self-contradictory, not to mention being a shitty, repulsive attitude.

“You libs want to treat people equitably! You’re such losers!” Yeah, this is someone who definitely deserves my time and attention.
