It's a feedback loop. When it looked like the war would be long, oil prices spiked, equity markets tumbled and there was political pressure on Trump to pull back.
As soon as he hinted that he might stop, the market pressure eased and, with it, the political pressure. So he can go harder again...
Yes, hello, is that God? Yeah, hi. I have a complaint. You gave me this brain that’s designed for finding berries and avoiding lions and now people are ‘just circling back’ to see if we can ‘move the needle’ on ‘key initiatives’? NONE of those things are berries.
AI writing is fast food writing.
In his "autobiography" (more a loosely edited diary), John Adams on Sep 9, 1776 noted without comment—in one sentence—that Congress had officially adopted the name "United States."
He then spent over 500 words recounting an argument w/ Ben Franklin about whether to close bedroom windows at night.
Q: You said the war is 'very complete.' But your defense secretary says 'this is just the beginning.' So which is it?
TRUMP: You could say both
It's this intense form of Gell-Man Amnesia. We hear him say the 2020 election was stolen by illegals and Italian satellites, he jabbers on about Hannibal Lecter and then we just pretend that the last coherent comment he managed to make is true and actual policy and won't be contradicted in 5 mins.
In the 3 minutes since I wrote that last post, Trump is now saying this below.
The war that is not a war that is just getting started and might last until September is pretty much done and we’re also going to seize a strait we don’t control and maybe kill more leaders if we don’t like them
Israel wants another 3 weeks. If Trump says stop, though, they stop.
Are the global markets really swinging back because of an ambiguous comment by the world's most powerful idiot? Has everyone lost their fucking minds?
>trump says war over
>no change in situation on ground
>spx green
>oil $85
So I can only read the screenshots, not the full piece, but does the author think "speciality coffee" means complicated Starbucks orders full of syrups and sprinkles? Because that is literally the opposite of what speciality coffee is.
I've been told by some AI skeptics that it literally can't do anything, often in response to a comment of mine that "it sucks at X but I used it for Y and it worked ok". I get that it's not your position, but I also don't think it's quite as rare a position as you think.
There is no funnier train station sign than "Cambridge home of Anglia Ruskin University". Everytime I see it I'm impressed all over again at the level of trolling.
Hasn’t been corroborated beyond John Solomon yet but he does often get inside stuff and Kari Lake seems to think it’s real
Great
No, it's just my experience from keeping an eye on some of these communities. After your question I checked out the demographics and yeah it's stark and I'm also curious.
There are a LOT of Indian online incels etc. But then again, it's the biggest country in the world.
I'm genuinely impressed that they're still finding new levels and depths
of corruption.
Aladdin never got his 3 wishes either. His first wish was to be a prince. Istead the genie made him appear to be, not actually become, a prince. His next 'wish' was while unconscious and shouldn't count as it lacked proper form (same as the non-wish when the genie saved him from the cave of wonders)
NEWS
Trump DOJ offers a deferred prosecution agreement to Halkbank, the Turkish state-run bank charged with laundering billions in Iranian oil money.
Trump repeatedly tried to end this case in his first term—per John Bolton, as a favor to one of the "dictators he liked" (i.e. Erdogan).
NEW: CBS News correspondent Scott MacFarlane just announced to the newsroom that he's leaving the network after 20 years.
Here's his goodbye note:
Still crazy that the president’s lawyer spent two days with Ghislaine Maxwell, she “cleared” him of wrongdoing and was almost immediately transferred to a more pleasant prison and nobody in the administration will explain it and the media acts like two large dots are just impossible to connect.
Here's how bad it's getting on x: posting pics of *this* as if it's an Iranian attack on Netanyahu's home.
Drive less to save fuel, motorists told
This is genuinely leading the Telegraph homepage
They could have had three wishes each from the Jafar genie too! So many wasted wishes.
My kids are watching Aladdin and all I can think is how angry I was as a kid that they didn't give the lamp to Jasmine have a few wishes before freeing the genie. They could have had world peace, and he'd still have gone free 30 seconds later.
And don't get me started on Mascarpone and Calzone
On the other extreme, my American wife speaks better French than I do, but she pronounces croissant with an R and a T and thinks my way of saying it sounds like an affectation.
