North America contains some of the longest continuous deciduous forest records on the planet.
This makes me rationally livid.

What unethical life hack would you recommend to others?
If you want a free quarter, make an online order at Aldi that is large enough for them to load into a cart and also justify you taking the cart out to your car. Return said cart to the cart line and boom free quarter.

While technically true, I think poker actually is one of those games in which the stakes (providing a tangible fear of loss) are a valuable element to the game. Tournament style poker would essentially accomplish this, but it’s not always easy to round up enough friends to make it enjoyable. And even then, the people who drop out early on have to either watch or find something else to do.

Judge: Trump sought to ‘manipulate the judicial process’ with his IRS lawsuit and attempted $1.8B fund
Reply in thread
Yep. The Nuremberg Trials began or at least affirmed the very important precedent that “I was just following orders” is not a viable defense against being a fascist piece of shit.

Minnesota becomes first state to ban prediction markets and makes it a felony

I think the ban is on using VPNs to circumvent the prediction market prohibition, not on using VPNs whatsoever.

If Dems Retake Congress, Platner Says 'Compelling Case' Exists for Impeaching 'At Least Two' Supreme Court Justices
Even though Dems wouldn’t have anywhere close to 60 Senators, a massive bloodbath during these 2026 Midterms may convince at least a few republican senators that their political careers would be over by remaining tied to the Trumpstein crooks. Of course, let’s first win these Midterms, and then see about effecting real change to save this Democracy.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez says Democrats shouldn’t trust Marjorie Taylor Greene
Why is it that during every MTG interview from a mainstream journalist, wherein MTG criticizes Trump for doing something illegal, the journalist NEVER asks her (or any Republican congressman in a similar situation) the very basic fucking question…
So… as the party in power… what the fuck are you going to do about it?

I’m afraid I’ve used “lol” so much for so many years that this is exactly how people will interpret my texts if I suddenly stop now.

Recently within the past few months, I remember seeing a viral clip of one of the human stick-figure type robots in a demonstration at some kind of mall (probably in China but I can’t recall). The robot started malfunctioning, and the handlers had to physically restrain the robot so that it wouldn’t malfunction erratically around the audience or people simply walking by.
Most of the comments about the video were laughing at how silly and stupid the robot was behaving, but all I could think was: If that thing was just a little bit stronger, the human handler wouldn’t have been able to physically restrain it. That robot would immediately become a real physical danger to literally everyone in the vicinity.

The Graph That Should Be Front-Page News
Over the past year, books like Hunger Games have started to feel unsettlingly prescient. But perhaps we can skip that dystopia altogether and instead careen directly toward the Mad Max world.
