A'ight, back on my regularly scheduled 1920s building entrance bullshit. BEHOLD!

They should have been able to bring my dad's temperature to just above freezing, stop his heart, install a huge stint, or even an emergency wrap in/around his aorta- then restarted his heart.

Instead, they didn't even figure out his aorta- had dissected, until after he was dead.

Never forget, what it is also a distraction from.

The Chicago Stock Exchange itself should never have been demolished. This exquisite room is one of the few vestiges of it that remain, & it is absolutely outrageous that it should be endangered again.

Huh, guess they really want Linux to take over.

Governed by the most untrustworthy people on earth.

Good to see evil in Iranian leadership sropped- but to be stopped by such corrupt incompetence, what other evil may now grow?

To go to war, over... What?
The claims of a pathological liar?

By all accounts, the Iranian leader was a villian- and if our spoken goal was regime change- to save more lives... And it was approved by Congress, I would feel different.

But what is this joke of an excuse to go to war?

A specific System of a Down lyric is blairing in my mind.

Nothing is surprising about the US starting another war. Nothing is more dangerous to Earth and mankind at large than the United States and its complete and utter failure to curtail the worst excesses of humanity. The US oligarchy and its influence on global politics must end.

Lol, he basically said "how dare they have even the slightest semblance of morality!" And banned them.

God I miss older StarWars cutaways so much.

Have a summary of only the true bits?
I suspect it will be only a few sentences long.

Should be illegal for people in such a high office, or any office near it, to lie as much as he does.

You're acting like he is going to get up there and give us facts, numbers, and a logical plan.

He's going to get up there and lie- then spew a bunch of only semi coherent sentences, based on how much he hates Americans.

Should only air/comment on the bits that are truthful for him.
Would probably be 10 seconds of content.

First test, if they were being honest, would be "Is Trump a good president?"
If they answer anything other than "No." Then they aren't actually patriotic, or pro-American.

Fox and Filth are a perfect example of un-American pro-Crime traitors to the nation.

Lol, they finally do their job, and are not being partisan for once, and the failure in the White House calls them so.
Laughable.

It's nice to have the Supreme Court do something good for once.

I mean, they have been a lot of those things before when they sided with him. But this time, they most definitely are not.

He's going to destroy it.

I had such a wonderful father, and a wonderful dog.
I lost them both, on the same weekend, in 2025.
I miss them both, forever.

The noble part of our legacy, is in the last century.
For thousands of years, the legacy they appear to be focusing on, is one of war, co quest, and utter immorality.

To stop our decline, we need to embrace morality, and science. The opposite of everything this administration is pushing.

In theory. There is nothing wrong with AI.
Nothing wrong with EVERY task being able to be done by machines.

Long as two, EXTREMELY difficult things happen:
1. Morality in machine minds.
2. Socialism, so no one needs to work.

Freedom of speech, what's that?
Say something the Gov doesn't like, they come for your information. Then they come for you.

Absolutely disgusting.
Any company that does this without someone's express written consent before they die, should be purged from existance.

Not an opt out, not an opt in- a actual "Hey, I want this, I'm signing this digital doc for a false corporate copy to exist of me."

screenshot of a long stone bridge overshadowing a medieval town. the bridge has a gatehouse in the middle, which leads to the entrance of a castle

the entrance to the castle. tall towers and turrets are scattered everywhere, it's an insane and dysfunctional layout mostly for showing off

the implausibly large keep in the center of the castle. octogonal tower with turret towers in the corners that go up the whole length.

a higher up view of the towers at the gate, with the massive keep visible in the back

big gothic castle in quake from last year. didn't make it for any other reason than I was using it to make new textures and enjoying myself.

I wish they had paws in that universe.

Wait? So it will have pod racers in it?
I'm interested again.
