Well, both her name and the term TESCREAL are in the index, so she and it must be getting covered. I’m still on the intro.

Weird, as someone who has been interested in futurism (extropianism, transhumanism, etc.) ever since first introduced to the idea, probably by way of Robert Anton Wilson and Timothy Leary, I don’t think it has to lead to the douchebaggery of an Elon, for example. Also, I’ve never heard of this acronym until now, so that’s interesting…

Interesting. I wonder if someone else’s mother said they’d probably punch “JD” “Vance” or tiny-d donnie in the face if they’d get a visit from the feds.

I figure his daddy is Peter Thiel.

Which state?

What did she say/write?

Why do you think these shitheads love the idea of ending democracy?

I’m currently reading The Nerd Reich - only a few pages in and can tell it’s one to recommend.

Of course, The Sovereign Individual gets mentioned in The Nerd Reich. Everyone should be familiar with that book, or at least the general outlines of that book. It’s really quite amazing how these people take such a haughty tone toward most of humanity, really.

Could be I did not explore the entire game, but I don’t think she was in the game, actually.

I see there is lots of speculation about why she’s out, etc.

But honestly, I would not be surprised to learn it was just due to age or something. If someone like donnie doesn’t think she’s fuckable, it’s out to pasture you go…

Yeah, I am rather amazed that it seems so fashionable to want the AI bubble to pop, as if we won’t all be in the direct line of fire. It’s like people that were wishing for the housing bubble to pop back in the mid-00s…the people at the top doing all this shit are not going to be the ones that suffer.

I’d rather the AI bubble were to spin down and have a soft landing, but honestly, I have no idea if that is even remotely possible. It seems we cannot just have a stable economy; it’s either tulip bulb mania or it’s in freefall because the investor class is not making quite as much money as they think they are entitled to.

Ah, I figured Wonkette would have at least one piece on here, and here’s one of them:

The really, really wild thing is when xtians have the audacity to tell someone that, without (their) god, there is no way to have morality.

I played Epic Furious again recently; it still makes me laugh that game ends if you try to hold Melania’s hand…

It’s weird how that thumbnail looks like a face that has a beard.

I hope donnie continues to make it all about himself in the run-up to the election…remind everyone of what voting R gets you, and just how much every single con has groveled before him. There is no distance between any Republican and this complete asshole and people need to be reminded of that.

They don’t get to pretend they never knew the guy now. Fuck that noise.

Why the fuck is the Department of Justice involved in sportsball at the state level?

abrahamic faiths

I remember having many discussions with some strident xtians about how that’s not really a thing, or that xtianity doesn’t really count.

It still makes me laugh.

Well, next time someone brings up Kirk [1], I’ll have to remember Vance’s quote here.

[1] Not sure that someone will, though. I still remember most people’s reaction when he was shot and it was: “Who?”

Sigh.

This is all so very stupid and obviously harmful, just like everything conservatives do to this country.

I just wonder where we might have been if Gore had not had his election stolen from him by conservative demons. Somehow, I don’t think donnie would be in the WH.

That game is hilarious.

It’d be one thing if donnie had any semblance of taste, but he just doesn’t.

Also, he’s an asshole most of the country hates, and they don’t want him putting his mark on our nation.
