Now you get it!

Israel is as bad as Hamas or the Islamic Republic. We should treat that country like a pariah state instead of giving them billions of dollars in “aid” every year.

Same. I voted for him cuz he was the best option on the general ballot, but anyone who thinks Newsom is anything other than a corrupt shill is dumb.

Newsom represents PG&E, Sand Hill Road billionaires, and real estate developers. Until he changes his tune, he is not the person for the moment.

A failed state like Lebanon is Israel’s objective. We went along for the ride because our leaders are corrupt imbeciles who think bloodlust is synonymous with masculinity.

The utilities and their allies spent more than $1 billion influencing politicians, nonprofits, academia, and more Find out how utilities in California exert their influence on lawmakers and impact rate hikes, rooftop solar, and more.

I’ll just leave this here. Never forget that Newsom’s CPUC helped PG&E penalize solar users.

Like one’s position on ICE or trans rights, one’s position on Gaza is a litmus test. It can reveal whether a person believes in universal human rights or not.

If the Dems who win in the 2026 midterms get squeamish about prosecuting this administration, we'll need to elect a bunch of new people running on Nuremberg shit for 2028. This isn't a joke. It's the law. It's justice. Biden let Trump back in the WH and this happened because Joe didn't do his job

But how can we afford to send free bombs, jets, and missiles to Israel with your tax plan? Won’t that upset your handlers at AIPAC?

Imagine for a moment saying this about Hindus, Catholics, or Jews.

Imagine the reactions you’d get.

I'd like to know if they'll "vote blue no matter who" for the nazi tattoo guy in Maine? Cuz they're very, very vocal about his chances against collins.

Yes, a relationship that "yields trade, economic growth, and keeps our freedoms safe."

Translation: our relationship with Israel yields higher gas prices, more inflation, economic espionage, and a whole new generation of people in the middle east who want revenge. This is definitely worth $10b+/yr.

Imagine failing out of a lower division data structures class and having to get a degree in urban planning or some such and then 20 years later a chatbot writes a crappy task manager for you and tells you that you’re beautiful.

Of course it’s conscious. It has to be to hold back the sea of sadness.

Putin, Khamenei 2.0, and whoever is in charge of Venezuela right now.

I must also mention that it would take literal months and multiple GP visits to get approval for a colonoscopy. Unless you’re older than 45 - at which point you are allowed one every ~10 years, unless the GP seriously suspects something.

$10,600 is the US max out of pocket per year with higher end insurance (Gold). Looking at your list, you’d be about 2/3 of the way there.

Don't forget you or your employer would have to also pay the monthly premium for insurance (thousands per year).

I love the “is AI conscious” discourse. It’s a really fast and efficient way for me to identify people who are dumb but think that they’re smart.

It’s true! You can’t imagine the sheer amount of DEI and trans rights the right-wing Islamic Republic of Iran pushes.

This was never the stated goal of one of the belligerents. Israel does not particularly care if Iran is a democratic state. The prefer a failed state like Lebanon or Syria. A democracy can become unfriendly in a single election.

Remember how palmer lucky and peter thiel‘s anduril was given hundreds of millions in contracts for crappy intercept drones and headsets, AND the us government still uses patriot missiles to stop iranian drones?

Yeah, me too.

Maybe we take the money back and give it to Ukrainian companies.

This thinking should tell you how stupid most of these captains of industry happen to be.

They broke a ton of things during the last trump admin: International norms are toast. The markets went from irrational exuberance to psychotic coke bender. The dollar is beginning to look like a bad bet.

Dude, it is a strange time to be alive when the Catholic Church is accurately testifying on the decline of humanity.

I mean, this stuff is expected from some Jesuit priest or scholarly nun, quietly preaching at distant corner of the world; but the Church itself? A archbishop? Strange days.

I’m just waiting to see if they’ll advise people to “vote blue no matter who,” if the guy who had the nazi SS tattoo ends up being the candidate in Maine.

“Had absolutely nothing to do with her policy on Gaza,” cracked me up.

Here’s their convo w/20 yr old voters.

“Why are you upset?”
“Gaza.”
“Ok, but why are you really upset?”
“Funding Israel’s destruction of Gaza.”
”But seriously. Why?”
“… huh?”
“You’re obviously crazy.”

She had an incredible amount of momentum going into the convention tho. She squandered it. To be fair, to capitalize on it, she would have needed to sacrifice much of Biden’s legacy.

That said, it’s hard to convince 20 yr old to vote. Harder still when you say you’ll continue supporting genocide.

They’re also so desperate for an approving father that they’re putting a blazer on a sycophantic chatbot and calling it daddy.

… Freud is forever underrated as a thinker.

Dude, cmon. You’ve promised to veto a ONE TIME billionaire tax. Anyone who lives in California knows you put sand hill road billionaires, real estate developers, and corporations first. Let’s not pretend you’re some kind of progressive darling.

The person implied that Keller’s opinion is meaningless. I’m pointing out that Keller‘s opinion does matter since he actually lives and works in Yountville.

That said, he is not blameless. He helped overdevelop Yountville into a sort of west LA, sunset magazine ruin for vacuous rich white ppl.
